Changes for version 2.1.9 - 2026-03-22
- Fixes
- Fix uninitialized value warning in SendJabberMessage when concatenating error strings from chunked messages via .= on undef variable; also fix POD method name typo (get_ident -> get_responses) and broken E<gt> escape sequence (PR #58)
- Guard all public API methods (ChangeStatus, GetRoster, GetStatus, Process, JoinForum, AddUser, RmUser) against crashes when called while disconnected — previously crashed with "Can't call method on an undefined value" (PR #55)
- Fix misleading "Message not relevant to bot" debug log that fired for all messages instead of only genuinely irrelevant ones (PR #57)
- Improvements
- Add Stop() method for graceful shutdown of Start() event loop; Start() now returns the loop iteration count and can be re-called after Stop() (PR #56)
- Maintenance
- Remove dead code: unused $iqReply and unreachable block in _jabber_in_iq_message, unused $reconnect_timeout in Start() (PR #57)
- Remove legacy Class::Std commented-out attribute declarations, write real documentation for GetStatus, AddUser, and RmUser methods (PR #58)
- New test: t/07-test_disconnect_public_api.t for public API calls while disconnected (PR #55)
- New test: t/08-test_start_stop.t for Stop() and Start() lifecycle (PR #56)
