Changes for version 0.90
- Released
- Haven't really been updating this thing for the last week, since so many changes are taking place. Did a complete audit of CFITSIO.xs, comparing it's implementation to the CFITSIO documentation and source code. This lead to wholesale behavioural changes and loads upon loads of bug fixes. Whoa be unto those who still use v0.50 after this thing is released! Also made running, cmping and diffing of testprog/testprog*.pl much easier with testprog/runtests. Everything is in CVS now, making my dual development at home and work much easier. Oh yeah, did I mention the 137 new tests in test.pl? Finally, decided the next version will be 0.90
- Wed Dec 02 1998
- More bug fixes, again mostly related to special cases of null pointers as input to CFITSIO routines.
- Began work on test.pl. This is painful, especially given the four versions of testprog*.pl that alread exist...sigh.
- Tried to split up CFITSIO.xs since recompiles were taking far too long. Unfortunately, xsubpp wants to make a bootstrap() for each of them.
- Mon Nov 30 1998
- A bunch of (possible) bug fixes, too many to list individually. Mostly related to treatment of null pointers as input to CFITSIO routines.
- Thu Nov 26 1998
- Finished testprog_pdl.pl, discovered that PDL uses the same array storage format as FORTRAN (row order).
- Tue Nov 24 1998
- Incorporated Tim Jenness' fits_read_header()
- Grammatical fixes in pod
