Changes for version 0.10

  • Frank Tolstrup pointed out some test misses because of CRLF versus LF issues on Windows. These should now also be fixed. Mention Frank in the new ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS section of load.
  • Added thread indicator to trace if threads are used. This should facilitate debugging of the Thread::xxx modules. Added tests for it as well. For the trace to properly detect threads, the threads module must have been loaded prior to loading load.pm.
  • 17 September 2003 Hmmm... I may be taking the "release soon, release often" too literally. Anyway, Frank Tolstrup's output of the failing test-suite under Windows, pointed to a possible seek() problem under Windows. Added a binmode() in case the source-file is opened again for on-demand loading of a subroutine. And the tests with $Foo::{} also failed under Windows: they shouldn't anymore.
  • Installed experimental trace possibility that is activated by setting the environment variable "LOAD_TRACE" to a true value. This is still experimental so therefore only documented here.
