Changes for Perl extension Perl-Dist-WiX
0.162 Fri 27 Mar 2009
1. Test and documentation update only. Do not worry
about upgrading.
0.160 Sun 22 Mar 2009
1. install_cpan_upgrades goes through and gets a
list of installations to call install_distribution
on instead of installing all of the distributions
at once using CPAN::Shell::uptodate.
2. _run3 removes directories containing unzip.exe
and gzip.exe from the path (causes perl's
'make test' to fail if this is not done).
3. Checks for spaces in build directory when testing
perl 5.10.0 (Testing CPANPLUS::Shell will fail)
and 5.8.8 (Installing modules will fail.)
Adds Win32 to dependencies, but it was being used
in testing anyway.
4. Add TODO list.
5. Add dependency on Alien::WiX.
0.150 Thu 5 Mar 2009
1. Added a digit to the version number because
having a version numbered 0.1401 messed the
ordering up.
0.15 Thu 5 Mar 2009
1. Updated PDWix::Parameter error class.
2. Used PDWiX::Parameter more places.
3. Added code to Perl::Dist::WiX->new to attempt
to prevent suicide.
4. Minimum perl version is now consistently 5.6.0.
This is tested for throughout the whole distribution.
0.1401 Wed 25 Feb 2009
1. Got bit by new indexing rules implemented as of
December 2008, so creating tar file with correct
permissions.
0.14 Wed 25 Feb 2009
1. Got rid of warning at Directory.pm around line 416
(using comparison with result of Scalar::Util::blessed
instead of Params::Util::_INSTANCE because _INSTANCE
returns undef, rather than a numeric.)
0.13_04 Mon 23 Feb 2009
1. Added PDWiX::Parameter error class
2. Added packlist parameter to install_module
and install_distribution
3. Added DirectoryTree->add_root_directory.
0.13_03 Fri 20 Feb 2009
1. Internals use Object::InsideOut (I have to admit
I was getting confused with all the inheritance.)
Perl::Dist::WiX[::Installer] still uses Object::Tiny
for backwards compatibility.
2. Exception::Class also used (Makes it so errors
change along with the trace level.)
Note that errors generated by Perl::Dist::WiX are
in the PDWiX class.
3. Tests reordered and categorized.
0.13_02 Thu 12 Feb 2009
1. Test sequence completed. Passes, as well.
0.13_01 Mon 02 Feb 2009
1. Generates .msi file!
2. Added routines to help make sure all files are installed.
3. Updated to go with Perl::Dist 1.12 and Perl::Dist::Strawberry 1.09
4. Icons handled.
0.11_07 Tue 27 Jan 2009
1. Documentation completed.
2. Trace now has 6 (0-5) levels.
3. Directory creation simplified. (hopefully bug-free)
4. Still no .msi yet.
0.11_06 Wed 21 Jan 2009
1. Moved Feature.pm up one level, created FeatureTree.pm.
2. Spelling, a little documentation, bug fixes, tests.
(more in _07)
3. CPAN icon, get_component_array methods, build number,
beta number, and msi parameters added.
4. Updated Perl::Dist::WiX to match Perl::Dist::Inno 1.11
5. Creating all .wixout files required - but no .msi yet
(files are being counted twice)
0.11_05 Mon 19 Jan 2009
1. Work in progress debugging routines install_win32_extras needs
2. Documentation of some low-level modules added
3. Compile test updated with all modules.
4. Other tests skipped until rewriting done.
5. Some parameter-checking added.
0.11_04 Sat 17 Jan 2009
- Verified generation of fragments up to step 4
(install_perl_modules) now. (84 fragments, 900K)
- Removed P::D::W::Toolchain, replaced it with ad-hoc
_name_to_module method (I want to affect Perl::Dist
itself as little as possible)
- Added more to list of modules that leave .packlist
files to check.
- Removed create_string_fragment method (not being used)
0.11_03 Sat 17 Jan 2009
- perl, the perl licenses, and the individual
modules of the Perl toolchain are now tested
to generate fragments (now 57 fragments, about
800K .wxs source.)
- Perl::Dist::WiX::Filelist module added to handle
file list arithmetic and operations.
0.11_02 Thu 15 Jan 2009
- First actual code:
1: Most routines collect file names
2: "low-level" routines create strings that
"work up the line" and get assembled.
3: Individual portions of the C toolchain are
individual wix fragments.
0.01_01 Sun 12 Oct 2008
- Creating initial version
