1 3.18 - October 16, 2002:
2 - Fixed the class for tied headers. Content_Type is now really converted to
3 Content-Type, as explained in L<PLP::Fields>
4 - Added some bits to L<PLP::HowTo>
5 - Closing :> is now optional (which is handy for code-only PLP documents that
6 should not send additional whitespace)
8 3.17 - August 21, 2002:
10 - %get is now built on script start, no longer on first access
11 - Apache->request->print is used now under mod_perl, not print (faster)
12 - Small documentation fixes
13 - Setting a header when headers are already sent now tells you where output
19 - Changed compile-time <(...)> includes to use paths relative to the file they
20 are included by. Include() of course still uses paths relative to the current
22 - Added and removed Safe.pm implementation. Safe's reval() crashes Apache on
24 - Removed useless constant in void context in PLP::Functions
25 - Added some documentation
28 - Added caching of scripts. This means using more memory but it also means
29 executing scripts 45-65% faster! (mod_perl only)
30 - Added configurability of caching: PerlSetVar PLPcache On/Off (Default: On)
31 - Changed PLP.pm to use File::Basename and File::Spec
32 - Added recursion protection for compile-time includes (fixed max depth: 128)
36 - Small documentation change
39 - Added documentation:
44 - Added predeclared of hashes for use-strict-users ("our"/"use vars"
45 is no longer necessary for the PLP hashes)
46 - Added plp.vim for vim syntax highlighting to the distribution
47 - Added error reportig to Counter, ReadFile and WriteFile
48 - Changed ReadFile and WriteFile to use lexical filehandles
49 - Changed PLP::Functions to use Fcntl for improved portability
50 - Cleaned up PLP::Fields: removed the PLPdummies
51 - Fixed DELETE, EXISTS and FIRSTKEY in PLP::Tie::Delay (added PLPdummy there)
54 - Fixed strict-violation in PLP.pm that happened only without mod_perl
57 - Fixed all tie-stuff by reverting a change. Symbol.pm's delete_package doesn't
58 delete a package in the way I thought it did.
61 - First standardized module distribution, to allow easy distribution via CPAN
62 - Caution: installation procedure has changed because of that!
63 - Moved all code from plp.cgi to PLP.pm, and made PLP.pm use strict (it was
64 strict compliant, but didn't actually use the pragma).
65 - Added mod_perl handler() for extremely easy installation :)
66 - Added some documentation (perldoc PLP) with installation instructions
67 - Moved a few lines from init() to start()
68 - Added comments in PLP.pm
69 - Uses Symbol.pm to delete the package (Symbol is in the Perl distr.)
72 - Added PLP_END functionality to simulate END { ... } for mod_perl
73 - Fixed header sending in case PLP::Tie::Print->PRINT never happened
74 - Added an override for exit(), to avoid needless debugging output in mod_perl
77 - Fixed a potential bug in PLP::source and PLP::Functions::Counter
80 - $PLP::DEBUG works again (set to 1 for $@ output, 2 for plain text+headers,
82 - $PLP::ERROR is now a subref that can be overridden (April 12: see FAQ for
86 - Removed a bug that made sending alternative headers impossible. Sorry!
87 - By the way, remember that if you want to send headers, the "<:" have to be
88 the very first characters in the file, with no white space in front of it!
91 - Efficiency improvement by caching initialisation in PLP.pm
94 - Bugfixes: include() used strict, fixed some typos, logging
95 - Improved: error reporting
98 - New release, a lot has been done from scratch again, this time following
99 strict rules and mod_perl compatible. It's also a lot faster than 2.x.
