SYNOPSIS

use Version::Dotted::Odd;           # import nothing
use Version::Dotted::Odd qw{ qv };  # import qv

# Construct:
$v = Version::Dotted::Odd->new( v1.0 );     # v1.0.0 (at least 3 parts)
$v = qv( v1.0.2.5 );    # v1.0.2.5

# Release status:
if ( $v->is_trial ) {   # If the second part is odd.
    ...
};

# Other methods are inherited from Version::Dotted.

DESCRIPTION

This is subclass of Version::Dotted. Two features distinct it from the parent:

• Version object always has at least 3 parts.

  $v = qv( v1 );          # v1.0.0
  $v->part( 0 ) == 1;     # Parts 0, 1, 2 are always defined.
  $v->part( 1 ) == 0;     # Zero if not specified explicitly.
  $v->part( 2 ) == 0;     # ditto
  $v->part( 3 ) == undef; # But may be defined.

• The second part defines the release status: odd numbers denotes a trial release.

  $v = qv( v1.0 );        # $v == v1.0.0
  $v->is_trial;           # false
  $v += v0.1;             # $v == v1.1.0
  $v->is_trial;           # true

Such versioning scheme was used by Linux kernel (between 1.0 and 2.6) and still used by Perl.

OBJECT METHODS

Returns true if the second version part is an odd number, and false otherwise.
