PRANG CHANGES

This POD file documents a summary of the changes in PRANG. For the full list of changes, refer to the git history.

VERSION 0.11 - ?? 2010

Fixed a bug in PRANG::Graph::Meta::Element which sorted the classes badly when using inheritance. There is still a design issue to be solved, if you want to use inheritance and not put new elements on the end of the sequence, or if you want to use roles.
PRANG now happily ignores XML Schema instance schemaLocation and noNamespaceSchemaLocation attributes on incoming documents. They are only hints for running unconfigured XML Schema validators anyway.

Fix enum support [reported by Heiko Jansen]
Add support for libxml indenting on to_xml [Heiko Jansen]
Specifying xml_min => 0 on an element attribute is now equivalent to xml_required => 0 [Sam Vilain]
New module PRANG::Coerce for creating coercion rules which are convenient for typical PRANG applications [Andy Chilton]
Support YourXML::Language->parse_file and ->parse_fh for convenience's sake [Sam Vilain]

No changes, just a re-bundling, as an included module was not the release version.

Distribution now includes all the modules required only for the tests. This, along with a bugfix in Scriptalicious, should hopefully close the last of the CPAN testers failures for 0.07.
An addition to PRANG::XMLSchema::Types Str subtypes: date, time, and tightening of the dateTime (it was not anchored before, so accepted any string containing a dateTime).

New documentation PRANG::XMLSchema::Guide which provides information on manually converting XML Schema specifications to PRANG classes.
Add a coerce rule for PRANG::XMLSchema::token types which normalizes whitespace on input values if enabled.
The xmlns Class property now affects all sub-properties, but not the including element. This mirrors the default behaviour with XML Schema.

Correct the handling of attributes with no prefix. They should always be considered to have no namespace, even if a default xmlns is defined, apparently.

XML namespaces support is now much more complete; lots of cases, including wildcarding of both the node name and the XML namespace now work. This is powerful enough to successfully round-trip crazy XML Schema specifications such as <any namespace="##any" processContents="skip"/>
PRANG::Graph::Class has been deprecated / ripped out. It was a hang-over from the time before use PRANG::Graph; set up the metaclass trait.
It is no longer required to specify the xmlns method, if you do not wish to use namespaces.
Specifying a role as a type now works, so long as the role is used by only PRANG::Graph types.

Much enhanced support for XML namespaces. Tests and functionality added; still lacking is the "Whatever" mapping, required for crazy XMLSchema stuff like >any namespace="##any" processContents="skip"/< - this will be supported in the next release.
Various bug fixes, more rejection of invalid input, and so on.

To install PRANG, copy and paste the appropriate command in to your terminal.
