Changes for version 0.02
- Added SVN link 'https://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/win32maple' to the POD doc.
- On the XS side, ignored MAPLE_TEXT_STATUS output so that PerlMaple won't return silly things like "bytes used=1963, alloc=719, time=0.44".
- Emphasized that Maple's maplec.h and maplec.lib must be in INC and LIB, repectively. Most of the test failure reports are concerning this issue.
- Added AUTOLOAD mechanism so that any Maple functions or procedures all automagically become the methods of PerlMaple objects;
- Renamed ->eval method to ->eval_cmd so that ->eval is exactly the Maple's counterpart.
- ->eval is not backward-compatible.
- Added optional options PrintError and RaiseError to the constructor
- Added attribute methods PrintError and RaiseError
- Fixed a bug concerning multiple PerlMaple instances creation
- Added corresponding tests.
- Tweaked the POD doc accordingly
- Added the PerlMaple::Expression class to represents a Maple expression ASTs.
- PerlMaple::Expression can now build full-featured Perl AST from arbitrary Maple expressions. So you can manipulate Maple expressions via data structures directly, without the burden of parsing Maple code yourself!
- PerlMaple::Expression provides several useful mehods, such as type, expr, and ops.
- Added method to_ast to the PerlMaple class, which is construct a PerlMaple::Expression object from the given Maple expression.
- Added ReturnAST attribute to the PerlMaple class (default off).
- PerlMaple's AUTOLOADed methods (shortcuts for Maple functions) and the eval_cmd method will return a PerlMaple::Expression object automagically if you turn on the ReturnAST attribute.
- Added many, many POD docs and many, many tests for the vast variety of new features.
- Added code coverage testing results to POD docs. (Thanks to Devel::Cover.)
