It was Tuesday, February 25, 2003 when Jim Westfall took the soap box, saying:
: I recently upgraded to 0.25 from 0.23 and noticed there is a behavior
: change to FollowTail with the SeekBack option. A 'SeekBack' => 0 is now
: causing it to seek back instead of seeking to the EOF like one would
: expect. The code was as follows
:
: my $seek_back = ( (defined $params{SeekBack})
: ? $params{SeekBack}
: : 4096
: );
:
: and has been changed to
:
: my $seek_back = $params{SeekBack} || 4096;
Oops. The old behaviour has been restored in the CVS version of POE.
Thanks for the notification.
: so now if $params{SeekBack} is undefined or set to 0 it will make
: $seek_back 4096. simple workaround on my part is to set SeekBack to -1.
:
: simular situation exists with the PollInterval option, tho I dunno if 0 would
: be a valid option for it.
This has been fixed too.
