Changes for version 1.00

  • Release to match Strawberry Perl 5.10.0.1 April 2008

Changes for version 0.90_04

  • Adding Perl::Dist::Inno::System for [Run] and [UninstallRun] block support. This is needed for more sophisticated install and uninstall functionality.
  • Completing documentation for all the major install_foo methods.
  • Merging some idiosyncracies into the Perl::Dist::Inno core.
  • Converting force in install_module to use notest under the covers, so that there are no errors to propogate upwards.
  • Added support for generating both zip and exe files simultaneously.

Changes for version 0.90_03

  • Perl::Dist::Download was a bad idea, I wanted the ability to to build distribution from a minicpan mirror, but maintaining that package and incrementing it every time a minor release happens of an upstream package will become a nightmare.
  • Merged in PAR support from Perl-Dist-Glutamate (Steffen Muller)
  • Adding more documentation
  • Completed first implementation of Perl::Dist::Machine, for generating multiple variations of a dist at the same time.
  • This version used to create Vanilla Perl Build 15.
  • This version implements features needed for Strawberry Perl April.

Changes for version 0.90_02

  • This release was used to build Vanilla Perl 14
  • Reorganising the default way that app_ver_name etc are done to allow for distributions classes that can generate BOTH 5.8.8 and 5.10.0 distributions.
  • Changed the usage of perldist
  • Make sure Perl::Dist::Util::Toolchain in the tests uses the full explicit Perl path.

Changes for version 0.90_01

  • Major API refactoring
  • Converted Perl::Dist::Util::Toolchain to be completely auto-resolving for what it should install.
  • Started the documentation process.
