9999.14 Sun Mar 20 16:26:47 EDT 2011
- Added LICENCE (same as perl) to POD
- Added special faster code to slurp in small text files which
is a common case
- Rewrote the extras/slurp_bench.pl script. It has a full
legend, better CLI options, size is selectable, benchmark
entries have more consistant names and it compares the new
fast slurp for small files to the general slurp code.
Thanks to Mark Friendlich
- Cleaned up pod
- Added more Synopsis examples
- Added t/error.t to actually test error conditions. Previous
error.t was renamed to error_mode.t which better reflects its
tests.
- t/error.t uses a new test driver module. this may get used by
other tests in the future.
- Fixed check for SEEK_SET and other constant subs being defined
- Added support for binmode other than :raw and binmode.t test
Thanks to Martin J. Evans, Peter Edwards, Bryce Nesbitt
- Added support for perms option in write_file and perms.t test
Thanks to Peter Corlett and Paul Miller
- Added check to the rename call in atomic mode. Tested in error.t.
Thanks to Daniel Scott Sterling
- Added POD to state that using scalar_ref or buf_ref will be faster
and save memory due to not making a copy
Thanks to Peter Edwards
- read_file in list mode keeps data tainted
Thanks to Sébastien Aperghis-Tramoni
- read_file checks for an overloaded object to get the file
name.
Thanks to Sébastien Aperghis-Tramoni
