CPAN-Reporter-1.08
River stage two • 11 direct dependents • 16 total dependents

Changes for version 1.08 - 2008-01-26

  • No changes from 1.07_06 (seems to pass smoke tests)
  • Summary of new features since 1.06:
    • Added have_tested() function to CPAN::Reporter::History
    • Added 'cc_skipfile' and 'send_skipfile' advanced config options
    • Added 'command_timeout' advanced config option
    • Added support for PERL_CPAN_REPORTER_DIR and PERL_CPAN_REPORTER_CONFIG environment variables

Changes for version 1.07_06 - 2008-01-25

  • Added 'command_timeout' config to halt commands after a period of time
  • Added detection of commands killed with a signal; reports are discarded (N.B. this may change in a future version)
  • Bug fix: processes timing out could still hang with child processes (killing 'make test' still leaves the harness running); fixed by making 'make test' its own process group and killing the process group; hoping that's portable across non-Win32; Win32 timeouts use Win32::Process and do the right thing already
  • Downgraded lots of progress messages from CPAN's 'mywarn' to 'myprint' (from red to blue if you use CPAN's colored output)

Changes for version 1.07_05 - 2008-01-24

  • Added PERL_CPAN_REPORTER_DIR and PERL_CPAN_REPORTER_CONFIG environment variables to specify alternate locations for default configuration directory and file (RT#30314)
  • Removed File::Temp as a full prerequisite; now only used in testing (Requested by Adam Foxson to extract features to CPAN::Testers::*)

Changes for version 1.07_04 - 2008-01-20

  • Test fix: stopping cc on blead broke lots of other tests. Fixed those. Built my own blead perl so I can actually check these things in the future instead of relying on Andreas' blead smoking
  • Test fix: testing skipfile wasn't being created properly on Perl 5.005

Changes for version 1.07_03 - 2008-01-19

  • Test fix: set sample history file writeable after copy

Changes for version 1.07_02 - 2008-01-19

  • Added have_tested() function to CPAN::Reporter::History; provide ability to search the CPAN::Reporter history file
  • Bug fix: PL files that warned "OS Unsupported" and exited with 0 will now be flagged as NA; this bends the CPAN Testers "rules" slightly, but "OS Unsupported" is a hack anyway, so this should help things DWIM
  • Test fix: more changes to timeout testing to avoid false failures
  • Authors will never be CC'd on reports when running maint/blead perl (anything with $Config{perl_patchlevel} set)
  • Reports discarded due to missing prerequisites will now be recorded in the history file with a 'grade' of DISCARD (unless a duplicate DISCARD already exists)
  • Changed "edit_report" prompt to clarify this can be used to review reports in addition to just editing them
  • Shortened duplicate report warning to fit on one line

Changes for version 1.07_01 - 2008-01-08

  • Added "cc_skipfile" and "send_skipfile" advanced config options to specify a text file of regex patterns; if a distribution ID ('AUTHOR/Dist-Name-0.01.tar.gz') matches any pattern in the file, the author will not be copied on the report (cc_skipfile) or no reports will be sent at all (skip_sendfile)
