0.59_01 2016-04-11
*** WARNING: this release includes lots of changes, some
visible, most internal. Regressions are expected. Also,
it introduces some minor backward incompatible changes -
but in those cases, the old behavior was broken or insane
anyway.
- libssh2 version 1.7.0 is now recommended. The module would
still compile against older versions, but not all its
features will be available.
- Makefile.PL has been refactored and improved. Now it is
better able to find the library libssh2 and compile code
using it.
- Lots of XS code refactoring has been performed in order to
simplify the module internals. Specifically, now typemaps
are used extensively to convert between C and Perl
types. Also, some complex non-performance-critical functions
have been moved to the Perl side or broken in a high level
Perl wrapper and a low level simpler C wrapper.
- KnownHost methods now return undef on error instead of
die'ing. Note that this submodule is still marked as
experimental.
- Die when data containing wide characters is passed
(i.e. outside the latin1 range). In previous versions,
methods on this module would happily accept strings
internally encoded as latin1 or utf8 and pass then along
untouched, resulting in unreliable behavior.
- In 32bit perls, return offsets and file sizes as NVs when
required to avoid overflow.
- Method "new" now also accepts the options "compress" and
"sigpipe".
- Passing options to "connect" is now deprecated.
- Passing a file descriptor number to "connect" is not
supported anymore (it was already broken).
- Method "connect" consistently returns undef on error. The
error code can be retrieved calling the "error" method
(requires libssh2 1.7.0). In previous versions, some errors
made the method die.
- Timeouts are handled correctly inside "connect".
- Report EAGAIN in the same way as any other error. This
introduces a minor backward incompatibility, but the old
behavior was utterly insane and undocumented, and so
probably, nobody was using it right anyway!
- Use libssh2_session_set_last_error function for storage of
the Perl level errors (required libssh2 1.7.0). This may
introduce some minor backward incompatibilities, but the old
code was broken and unreliable anyway.

0.18 2007-11-10 dbr (svn revision 56)
- Note version change: synced to libssh2. Should be compatible with
libssh2 0.16+, including future versions provided API remains stable.
- Documented Net::SSH2::version class method.
- Removed references to LIBSSH2_APINO (removed in libssh2 0.16);
fixes rt.cpan.org #28722.

Galbraith).

0.10 2007-02-24 dbr (svn revision 52)
- Net::SSH2::SFTP::realpath fix (Hugues Lafarge).
- Make compatible with perl 5.6 (rt.cpan.org #22821, SISYPHUS); required
minimal changes to typemap and use <version> lines (untested).
- libssh2 0.13 seems to work, libssh2 0.14 still fails some tests.
- Add missing Net::SSH2::PublicKey object.
- Use (arbitrary) 8K buffer in scp_get and scp_put methods, rather
than trying to transfer the whole file at once (rt.cpan.org #20679).

authentication callback (rt.cpan.org #22786).

runtime (used to require recompile to enable).
- Have poll of empty array return 0 early to fix architectures that
return 0 for malloc(0) (L. Adrian Griffis).
- WARNING: latest libssh2 builds (0.13, 0.14) don't pass module
tests any more; if you have problems try 0.12 or earlier.
0.08 2006-05-06 dbr (svn revision 46)

- Update Net::SSH2 SYNOPSIS (thanks to Roy Smith).
- NOTE: CPAN alias AWA (Vandana Awasthi) released an unauthorized
"0.07" version of Net::SSH2; you can recognize it because it says
0.06 in the changelog. I have not been able to contact AWA.
0.06 2006-01-14 dbr (svn revision 42)
