I am jubilant to announce that PAR 0.76 has been uploaded to CPAN, with a bytecode-compiling filter, which finally brings us on par with Java's obscurability. ;-) It is also available at:
http://aut.dyndns.org/dist/PAR-0.76.tar.gz
MD5 (PAR-0.76.tar.gz) = 44e2565cb30d063f0eefd2a7d6e17dff
People without a C compiler should also fetch the appropriate pre-built
pardists from http://aut.dyndns.org/par/ -- currently only ActivePerl
5.6.1 and 5.8.0 for Win32 are available.
* New Features
- Input filters. "pp --filter Bleach" now obfuscates the incoming
script with PAR::Filter::Bleach; "pp --modfilter Bleach" applies
Bleach to all packed modules.
- Two previously built-in filters, PodStrip and PatchContent,
are refactored out as PAR::Filter subclasses.
- Two new filters, Bleach and Bytecode, are added for source-hiding
purporses.
- New utility, "tkpp", provides a GUI frontend to "pp".
- New option, "pp --perlscript", to generate stand-alone scripts.
- The old "PAR::Intro" documentation has been replaced by two
new ones: "PAR::Tutorial" and "PAR::FAQ".
- Tk pixmap (.xpm) files can now be packed with "pp --add".
* Bug fixes
- Perl 5.8.1 has an off-by-one bug that prevents "parl" to
function properly. We have now provided a workaround;
this bug should also be fixed in Perl 5.8.2.
- Fixed https support for LWP via the new Module::ScapDeps.
Again, contributed binary packages built with 'make par' are most welcome;
please check http://aut.dyndns.org/par/ first to see if somebody already
sent me a package for your platform and perl version.
Thanks,
