Revision history for Perl extension IPC::System::Simple.

1.25      2013-10-20 13:38:32 Pacific/Auckland

        * BUILD: No longer ship unrequired file Debian_CPANTS.txt.

          (GH #7, thanks to real-dam)

1.24      2013-10-18 16:27:39 Australia/Melbourne

        * BUILD: No longer mark BSD::Resource as required (GH #6).

        * TEST: Skip core-dump tests on OS X. They're not as

          straightforward as the test script would like. (GH #5).

1.23      2013-10-08 14:50:50 Australia/Melbourne

        * BUGFIX: Silence "Statement unlikely to be reached" warning

          (Karen Etheridge)

        * BUGFIX: Repository information fix, and typo fixes (@dsteinbrunner)

        * BUILD: Converted to using dzil.

1.22  Tue Oct  8 14:49:43 AUSEST 2013

        * Same as 1.23 release, but with booched changelog. Oops! :)

1.21  Tue Mar 23 12:08:47 AUSEST 2010

        * TEST: t/win32.t has more sane handling of skipped and

          unimplimented tests.

        * TEST: Author tests no longer leave the permissions of

          not_an_exe.txt permanently changed.

        * BUGFIX: capture/capturex no longer break STDOUT when

          running an unknown command under Windows.  Many thanks

          to Jan Krynicky for a fix.  (RT #48319)

        * BUILD: Upgraded to Module::Install 0.93.

1.20  Sat Jan  9 15:08:41 AUSEST 2010

        * TEST: t/win32.t no longer claims to have more tests than

          it really has.  This fixes an install issue under Windows.

          RT #53124.  Thanks to Erez Schatz and Curtis Jewell for

          spotting this.

1.19  Fri Dec  4 14:14:25 AUSEST 2009

        * TEST: Added tests to ensure correct behaviour when

          calling commands in Windows which are contained in directories

          that contain spaces. (These tests are currently skiped,

          as they're testing for a known bug.)

        * BUGFIX: Spurious warnings about redefining POSIX macros

          no longer plague Windows systems.

1.18  Sun Feb  8 19:09:15 AUSEDT 2009

        * BUGFIX: IPC::System::Simple should now compile cleanly

          under 5.6.0 and 5.6.1 (as well as 5.6.2+).  Many thanks

          to David Golden for spotting this bug.  (RT #43098)

        * DOCUMENTATION: "Advanced" is now spelt correctly under

          in the section "Advanced Usage".  Many thanks to

          Raymond Wan for spotting this typo.  (RT #42705)

1.17  Fri Dec 19 00:45:16 AUSEDT 2008

        * TEST: Tests to ensure that passing undefined values to

          systemx() do not produce malformed errors, but instead

          well-formed errors.  Many thanks to Nadim Khemir for

          spotting this.  RT #41149.

        * BUGFIX: Workaround for a bug under Perl 5.10 where on

          some platforms coredumps were not being reported in $?.

          Many thanks to the Debian Perl folks for finding this,

          particularly Gregor Herrmann.

        * TEST: Better diagnostics from t/08_core.t.

        * TEST: t/08_core.t now cleans up its core files after running.

          Thanks to Gregor Herrmann for spotting this.

        * TEST: t/08_core.t is now a main test, rather than an

          author-only test.

        * BUGFIX: Attempting to call an undefined command is now

          a fatal error.

        * VERSION: Since ISS is now very stable, and provides a

          significantly improved interface to the default system()

          command, the major version number has been incremented.

          There are no incompatible changes with previous version.

          The increment of the major version number is to indicate

          stability only.

0.16  Sun Sep 14 11:29:17 AUSEST 2008

        * DOCUMENTATION: Updated documentation on $EXITVAL to provide

          extra clarification.  Many thanks again to Elliot Shank

          for the feedback!

        * DOCUMENTATION: Noted that run() and system() are aliases for each

          other.  Thanks again for Elliot Shank for the feedback.

        * DOCUMENTATION: Fixed a few missing double-quotes in the

          systemx() documentation.  Thanks to Andrew Dent for spotting these!

        * DOCUMENTATION: Added a feedback section.  If you find this module

          useful, consider rating it at

0.12  Fri Jun  6 17:15:52 AEST 2008

        - Corrected doubled package names in some diagnostics

          the Windows-specific notes section of the documentation.

        - Implemented capture(), which is the equivalent

          of run() for backticks.

        - General documentation improvements and clarifications,

          thanks to Jacinta Richardson.

        - Updated diagnostics section in POD.

        - License changed to that of Perl 5.6.0, or any later version.

          zero-length environment strings.

        - Updated taint checks to always run on 5.6.x, under

          0.07 they would never run on older perls.

0.07  Sat Apr 12 11:57:28 AEST 2008

        - Changed tests to use SIGKILL rather than SIGINT to avoid

          complications on systems where SIGINT is masked.

0.05  Mon Apr  9 16:22:22 AEST 2007

          to Jon Swartz for spotting these.

0.04  Mon Oct 30 15:14:53 AEST 2006

        - Fixed path issue with tests that would cause them
