+ Added new cookpod section: "Expiration policies on the client side"
+ Added t/lib/PerlEnvOO.pm simple mod_perl handler to test OO interface
! Updated Makefile.PL in order to:
- accept command line switch '-n' which
doesn't ask at prompt and doesn't run live Apache tests. This is to pack
easier this package for Debian (suggested by Krzysztof Krzyzaniak
<eloy@debian.org>)
- check correctly environment: test mod_perl generation
and test suite. Added messages before configuring test
- add httpd.conf extra lines for testing with Apache::DBI
! Updated PODS
- SessionManager.pm PODS (VERSION section)
- added L<> in every module name
- documented mp1/mp2 bug with "PerlSetVar Foo 0"
- Switched use of $ENV{'GATEWAY_INTERFACE'} to $ENV{'MOD_PERL'} in cookbook samples
- Fix 'Expire' with 'Expires'
! Bug fix: SessionManagerExpire: '0' => (none|no|disabled) value means no
expiration time
! Moved tests to run only under Apache::testold mod_perl 1 test suite
! Ported t/lib/*.pm sample modules to work either with mod_perl 1.0 and 2.0
