8b12854d » pfenwick 2009-07-02 RT #47520 - No double file/... 3 * BUGFIX: format_default() in autodie::exception no longer
4 returns a string with file and line attached. This would
5 cause the file and line information to appear twice when
6 format handlers would choose to fall back to the defaults.
7 The file and line information is now always added by
8 stringify(). (RT #47520, thanks to Michael Schwern)
9
10 * BUGFIX: Exceptions thrown by 2-argument open() are more likely
11 to specify the mode as 'for reading' when no explicit
12 mode was given. (RT #47520, thanks to Michael Schwern)

27 * BUGFIX: Stopped blog_hints.t from booching under Perl
28 5.8.x. because parent.pm is not installed.

31
c55a7a70 » pfenwick 2009-06-30 Add context()/return() to a... 32 * FEATURE: autodie::exception now supports ->context() to
33 discover the context of the failing subroutine, and
34 ->return() to get a list of what it returned.
35
36 * BUGFIX: ->function from autodie::exception now returns
37 the original name of the dying sub, rather than its imported
38 name. For example, 'File::Copy::copy' rather than 'main::copy'.
39 Core functions continue to always return 'CORE::whatever'.
40
1a5f9cf2 » pfenwick 2009-06-30 Add extra tests based upon ... 41 * TEST: blog_hints.t tests new hinting features against
42 examples in my blog at http://pjf.id.au/blog/

1fb3bbd8 » pfenwick 2009-06-29 Perl 5.10.1 fixes 49 * BUGFIX: Warnings are no longer emitted when undefined values
50 are compared by hinting routines.
51
52 * BUGFIX: Hints for File::Copy now operate correctly under
53 Perl 5.10.1.
54
36240690 » pfenwick 2009-06-30 5.8.x : inheritance is suff... 55 * BUGFIX: Inheritance is now considered sufficient to declare
56 allegiance to the hints provider role under Perl 5.8.x.
57 (Thanks to Glenn Fowler)
58
1fb3bbd8 » pfenwick 2009-06-29 Perl 5.10.1 fixes 59 * TEST: hints.t no longer throws failures under Perl 5.10.1.

8da7e15d » pfenwick 2009-05-21 Bump to 1.999_01 for release. 66
30adf70c » pfenwick 2009-02-22 Hinting support working! H... 67 * FEATURE: autodie can now accept hints regarding how
68 user and module subroutines should be handled. See
69 autodie::hints for more information.
70
71 * INTERFACE: The calls to the internal subroutines
72 one_invocation() and write_invocation() have changed.
73 An additional argument (the user subroutine reference) is
74 passed as the second-last argument. This may break code
75 that previously tried to call these subroutines directly.
76
77 * BUGFIX: Calls to subroutines to File::Copy should now
78 correctly throw exceptions when called in a list context.
79
b762a06c » pfenwick 2009-03-03 Fixed iternal error in writ... 80 * BUGFIX: An internal error where autodie could potentially
81 fail to correctly report a dying function's name has been
82 fixed.

4d8aba2f » pfenwick 2009-06-28 Fixed bug where package sca... 84 * BUGFIX: autodie will no longer clobber package scalars when
85 a format has the same name as an autodying function.
86 (Thanks to Ben Morrow)
87
5ee5bf9c » pfenwick 2009-03-03 Changes: Documented backcom... 88 * INTERFACE: The internal interfaces for fill_protos(),
d141c872 » pfenwick 2009-03-03 _make_fatal isn't backwards... 89 one_invocation(), write_invocation() are now once again
90 backward compatible with legacy versions of Fatal. It is
91 still strongly recommended these interfaces are NOT called
92 directly. The _make_fatal() subroutine is not backwards
93 compatible.
7a9c89b6 » pfenwick 2009-02-17 Documented tests. Expanded ... 94
a1c5c734 » pfenwick 2009-03-01 Merge branch 'master' into ... 95 * TEST: Added internal-backcompat.t to test backwards
96 compatibility of internal interfaces.

6eed7e98 » pfenwick 2009-03-05 Documentation changes with ... 98 * DOCUMENTATION: Expanded documentation regarding how
99 autodie changes calls to system(), and how this must be
100 explicitly enabled.
101

105 and errors from autodie would not be displayed has been
106 fixed.
107

963feac9 » pfenwick 2009-02-24 Documented: String eval + 5... 110 * BUGFIX: Autodie now correctly propagates into string evals
111 under 5.10+. Autodie completely fails to propagate into
112 string evals under 5.8. No fix for 5.8 is known.
db04618b » pfenwick 2009-02-24 autodie now propagates corr... 113
b3ac9a11 » pfenwick 2009-02-27 Rearranged Changes in order... 114 * BUGFIX: The caller() method on autodie::exception objects
115 should now always report the correct caller. While it
116 would always get the line, file, and package correct, previously
117 it would sometimes report less-than-helpful callers like
118 '__ANON__' or '(eval)'.
7a9c89b6 » pfenwick 2009-02-17 Documented tests. Expanded ... 119
b4ad38d5 » pfenwick 2009-02-22 Autodie treats system() as ... 120 * BUGFIX: autodie was treating system() as a user-sub, not
121 a built-in. This could tigger extra (unnecessary) work
122 inside autodie, but otherwise had no user impact.
db04618b » pfenwick 2009-02-24 autodie now propagates corr... 123
412113ed » pfenwick 2009-02-22 Fixed misleading synopsis i... 124 * DOCUMENTATION: The synopsis for autodie::exception::system
125 previously implied system() was made autodying by default.
126 This was not the case. It must still be enabled with
127 use autodie qw(system).
128
963feac9 » pfenwick 2009-02-24 Documented: String eval + 5... 129 * DOCUMENTATION: Noted the 5.8 string eval bug in
130 autodie/BUGS.
131
b3ac9a11 » pfenwick 2009-02-27 Rearranged Changes in order... 132 * TEST: Added test for correct caller output on
133 autodie::exception objects. Thanks to Piers Harding
134 for spotting this bug at KiwiFoo.
135
136 * TEST: Added tests for user-defined autodying functions
137 changing behaviour depending upon context. This was
138 reported in http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=744246 .
139
140 * TEST: Tests for autodie propagating into string eval.
141
40762c67 » pfenwick 2009-02-24 Additional tests for autodi... 142 * TEST: Expanded tests to ensure autodie::exception returns
143 the correct line number and caller.
144
4cc96643 » pfenwick 2009-02-24 Expanded caller.t to do ext... 145 * TEST: Expanded tests to ensure autodie::exception returns
146 correct information when calling subroutines in external files.
147

149
99f46302 » pfenwick 2008-12-04 Removed Module::AutoInstall... 150 * BUILD: Removed Module::AutoInstall, which previously
151 was loaded but not used, but currently doesn't actually
152 do what we want.
153
7e77782a » pfenwick 2008-12-05 exception_class.t: Worked a... 154 * TEST: We manually stringify $@ for one test in
155 exception_class.t to avoid a bug involving overloaded
156 classes containing apostrophies.
157
d61fa9d5 » pfenwick 2008-12-11 mkdir.t and unlink.t no lon... 158 * TEST: unlink.t and mkdir.t avoid changing directories,
159 which could cause spurious failures when @INC includes
160 paths relative to the current working directory.
161
884aae99 » pfenwick 2008-12-15 Better documentation of use... 162 * DOCUMENTATION: Spurious "used only once" messages are
163 documented in Fatal's documentation (as well as autodie's).
164
b4183273 » Craig A. Berry 2009-01-02 In determining whether test... 165 * TEST: truncate.t has been updated to avoid incorrect
166 test failures on VMS machines. Many thanks to Craig A
167 Berry for the bug report and fix. (RT #42110)
168
4a78d868 » pfenwick 2008-12-03 Don't test exception object... 169 1.997 Thu Dec 4 15:14:00 AUSEDT 2008
170 * TEST: Test::More 0.86 (and possibly 0.85) appears to
171 dislike package names that contain the apostrophe
172 character (these occur in some tests for Klingon
173 localisation). We now skip these tests on systems
174 with Test::More >= 0.85 installed.
175
8305d299 » pfenwick 2008-12-03 Release time! 176 1.996 Thu Dec 4 09:07:39 AUSEDT 2008
7096f27b » pfenwick 2008-12-02 We now provide an exception... 177 * FEATURE: Child classes can now provide an exception_class()
178 method that returns the desired exception class, rather
179 than over-riding the whole throw() method. Existing classes
180 that over-ride throw() will still work as before.
181
707942e6 » pfenwick 2008-12-02 Fixed nasty bug where multi... 182 * BUGFIX: Fixed a bug where multiple autodie-derived classes
183 would share the same subroutine cache. This could result
184 in excptions from the wrong class being thrown.
185
186 This bug did not affect programs which used only autodie,
187 or a single autodie-derived class.
188
3b20b05b » pfenwick 2008-12-02 Added missing version tag e... 189 * BUGFIX: Missing 1.995 version tag added to export list.
190
191 * TEST: Make sure that we always have a working version tag for
192 our current version.

197 friendly error messages for reading, writing, and appending.
198
fc094d36 » pfenwick 2008-11-29 Documented: We no longer pr... 199 * FEATURE: autodie will never print unsightly references to
200 GLOB(0x...) structures in error messages; instead it uses
201 the placeholder '$fh'.
202
bfffde76 » pfenwick 2008-11-04 Module::AutoInstall lets us... 203 * BUILD: Bundled Module::AutoInstall makes it clear to users
204 they need to install IPC::System::Simple for autodying
205 system() support.
206

212 messages from open().

218
219 * BUGFIX: link(), mkdir(), rmdir(), symlink() and umask()
220 are now part of the :filesys tag.
221
222 * BUGFIX: The new :msg tag contains msgctl(), msgget(), msgrcv(),
223 and msgsnd().
224
225 * BUGFIX: The new :semaphore tag contains semctl(), semget()
226 and semop().
227
228 * BUGFIX: The new :shm tag contains shmget(), shmread() and
229 shmctl().
230
231 * BUGFIX: The new :ipc tag contains :msg, :semaphore, :shm and pipe().
232
233 * BUGFIX: The read(), seek(), sysread(), syswrite() and sysseek()
234 methods have been added to :io.

a9bdba68 » pfenwick 2008-09-24 Much better error reporting... 236 * BUGFIX: autodie produces more detailed messages on internal
237 faults, and is more aggressive about stopping code compilation.
238
365bece4 » pfenwick 2008-09-20 Merge branch 'master' into ... 239 * FEATURE: flock will not die on failure when called
240 with the LOCK_NB option and would return false
241 due to an EWOULDBLOCK. See function specific notes
242 in autodie documentation for more details.
243
49dbe3bc » pfenwick 2008-09-17 Added _format_flock handler... 244 * FEATURE: Stringified exceptions from flock() are significantly

cf04ae2d » pfenwick 2008-09-06 Added support for dbmopen a... 294 * FEATURE: The dbmopen() and dbmclose() functions are now
295 supported in their own :dbm tag. This is part of :io
296 (and hence :default).

299 which ensures errors always display the mask in octal,
300 not decimal.

343 * RELEASE CODENAME: "jarich", in thanks for her giving
344 up pretty much a whole week of her life to do nothing
345 but help me work on my talks for OSCON.

347 * BUGFIX: autodie will now check open() for returning
348 undef, not merely false, as open() can legimiately
349 return zero for open(my $fh, '-|') || exec(...) style
350 calls.
351

355 of user subroutines.
356
357 * DOCUMENTATION: Noted in autodie.pm that user subs can
358 only be made Fatal/autodying if they've been declared
359 first.

362 re-enabled.

366 due to its prototype;
367
368 * FEATURE: Vanilla 'use autodie' now implies
369 'use autodie qw(:default)'. This excludes system(),
e81c961a » pfenwick 2008-07-21 Documentation/category impr... 370 which depends upon an optional module, and exec(),
371 which breaks its exotic form.

377
c38808f0 » pfenwick 2008-07-18 Added support for exec(). 378 * FEATURE: Addded support for exec (although this
379 breaks the exotic form while autodie is in scope).

387
388 * RELEASE CODENAME: "Aristotle", in thanks for the many
389 long and detailed discussions about the autodie interface
390 and how it should interact with Fatal. Aristotle was
391 instrumental in ensuring autodie has the clean and
392 simple interface that it does now.

2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 394 * FEATURE: 5.8 now has the ability to differentiate between calls
395 that return false to indicate failure, and those that
396 only return undef to indicate failure. CORE::send and
397 CORE::recv are examples of these.
fd1ce5e5 » pfenwick 2008-07-01 Removed kludge that forced ... 398
2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 399 * FEATURE: You can now 'use autodie qw(fork)' to make sure your
400 forks are successful (they must return defined).

662cbaef » pfenwick 2008-07-01 todo.t is dead. Huzzah! 403 for the reminder I had stuffed into here.
404
2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 405 * TEST: t/fork.t added, for testing autodying fork.
970d6e66 » pfenwick 2008-07-01 Added tests for fork() 406

5a82dc17 » pfenwick 2008-07-01 _remove_lexical_subs rename... 408 renamed to a much less misleading name of _install_subs,
409 since that's what it actually does now.
410
86d1f35e » pfenwick 2008-07-01 Leaks into other files are ... 411 * BUGFIX: Found and fixed a nasty bug where autodie's internal
412 subroutine cache was being too agressive. This could result in
413 handles from the incorrect package being used. Scalar filehandles
414 have never been affected by this bug.
415
416 * BUGFIX: Autodying subroutines will no longer leak into other
417 files if they are used/required/done in the same lexical scope.

d7f35efe » pfenwick 2008-07-01 Fatal.pm should now properl... 419 * BUILD: Fatal and autodie now install themselves with a
420 INSTALLDIRS=perl target, meaning they will now correctly
421 override (and possibly overwrite) your installed Fatal.pm
422 on 'make install'.
423
18e1027f » pfenwick 2008-07-02 Documented the 'used only o... 424 * DOCUMENTATION: Documented the 'used only once' bug when
425 using Fatal/autodie with package filehandles. This has
426 always existed in Fatal, and as far as I know it incurable
427 (but harmless).
428
d351cea0 » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Crickey! We can now subcla... 429 * FEATURE: autodie and its exceptions can now be subclassed!
430
431 * TEST: Added t/crickey.t as an example of using fair dinkum
432 subclasses of autodie. Mate, I reckon it's time for a beer.
433
2379b761 » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Moved autodie::exception ob... 434 * INTERNAL: Moved exception architecture from inside-out
435 objects (which need lots of extra work under 5.8) to
436 regular hashes (which don't need extra work).
437
5832655b » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Inline relevant portions of... 438 * INTERNAL: Inlined relevant portions of Scope::Guard, meaning
439 autodie can be installed with no dependencies. (It still
440 recommends IPC::System::Simple.)

2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 443 * RELEASE CODENAME: "ikegami", in thanks for solving the problem
444 of getting lexical replacement of subroutines working for real
445 under Perl 5.8. As this works better than my 5.10 implemenation,
446 it forms the foundation for this release.

2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 454 * Removed the 5.10 only way of tracking lexical hints with
455 %^H. Our code now exclusively uses the more portable
456 5.8 code that employs Scope::Guard (and has less side-effects).

2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 514 * Lexical user-subs are disabled under Perl 5.8. They were
515 leaking everywhere and not being lexical at all. Attempting
516 to use a lexical user-sub under 5.8 now causes an error.

2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 518 * Bugs found in interaction between autodie and Fatal in
519 5.8. When used together, we can't reliably replace a
520 Fatalised sub with an autodying one, and then switch it
521 back again at the end of block.

2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 525 * Overhauled _remove_lexical_subs, based on ikegami's
526 input. This routine would now be better named
527 "_install_lexical_subs", since it can now both
528 install and remove.

2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 533 * Added support for backwards compatible Fatal calls in
534 5.8. These are currently a little *too* backwards compatible,
535 possessing the same bugs as the old Fatal (clobbering
536 context).

2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 538 * Improved caching of pre-generated subroutines. We now

2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 562 * Perl 5.8 support working! Backcompat mode not yet

564 The 5.8 support that is there is rather kludgy, and

2544843f » pfenwick 2008-07-03 Retabbed 570 * lex58.t tells the user that we'll get warnings under

572 a Perl behaviour where it always calls the shell under
