  Thanks, Rafael.  I'll make the necessary adjustments.  Now I can submit 
  patches against blead.
 
 How different is blead's T::H from the CPAN 2.38?
 Should I integrate what there is to maint, or what a while?

I just fixed tests. Cf. the patch I sent to Andy earlier.
I also modified some stuff to install the prove utility ; although
you may want to wait for integrating this that I finish some
refactoring in utils/*.PL .


Math::BigInt::(Scalar|Trace) in lib!?

Moin,

~/src/blead/lib/Math/BigInt:

drwxr-xr-x3 te   users 152 2003-09-22 21:00 .
drwxr-xr-x5 te   users 328 2003-09-22 21:00 ..

drwxr-xr-x2 te   users1280 2003-09-22 21:00 t

Trace.pm is there due to bignum - but why is Scalar.pm there? IIAC this will
get Scalar.pm installed?

Scalar.pm is only for testing and should be under t/lib/Math/BigInt/ not lib/
Math/Bigint/.

I thought that was already moved. I used rsync (for the first time :) to get 
the blead source via the URL given in perldoc perlhack.

If this is really the latest source, could somebody please re-arrange 
Scalar.pm to the t/ directory so that it doesn't get installed?

Thank you in advance,

Tels

[PATCH] Math::BigInt v1.67 (pre-release)

2003-12-06 Thread Tels
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-

Moin,

it seems my last post slipped through the cracks. Anyway, I worked some more
on BigInt v1.67 and this time also produced a patch against blead. Please
find the tar.gz and patch here:

http://bloodgate.com/perl/packages/devel/Math-BigInt-1.67.tar.gz
md5sum 22b2e95490c0de010a1354f1661ea60f
http://bloodgate.com/perl/packages/devel/patch_blead_BigInt-v1.67.txt.gz
md5sum 3ed4225aa3874a48928743aa1b669b3c
(gzipped about 30 Kbyte)

All tests in blead pass after applying this patch. So, please integrate this 
into blead, so that it can be tested by the smokers. Me hopes v1.67 also 
makes it into maint before 5.8.3 is out.

I will shortly post another message with the current status and my plans for
BigInt v1.68.

Here is what I did since my last post on the BigInt v1.67 front:

* Bastian Angerstein did test it under Perl 5.5.3 (on AIX nonetheless) and
found some bugs (mostly with the testscripts and sprintf(%b) not beeing known
under perl pre v5.6). Thanx!
* I implemented a BigInt blog() function. It is reasonable fast (although
scales badly at O(N) where N is the output number) and quite simple. Tests
have been added.
* I implemented a BigInt broot() function. It is similiar to the blog()
function. Tests have been added.
* removed a needless _copy() in bmod() with negative arguments
* Fixed some of the more glaring grammar problems in the doc

Except bugfixes, doc patches, and the writing of HISTORY/NEW and some
benhmarks, that's it for v1.67 - anything else will be left for v1.68 (which
is due later this year).

Thank you in advance,

Tels
