Revision history for Perl extension Helios.
2.30_4931 Wed Dec 7 00:52:00 2011
-Switch to "Linux-style" versioning:
odd minor version == development version
even minor version == stable version
second minor number == patch level
(we're still also using Perl-style _ for devel versions too)
-Merged in HeliosX::ExtLoggerService functionality
(long overdue but not tested yet!)
-Removed Helios::Service->parseArgXML() (deprecated since 2.00)
-Removed Helios::Worker (deprecated since 2.00)
2.23 Fri Sep 10 12:22:00 2010
-Helios::Job: fixed bug where getArgXML() returned undef if job
object was vivified from job queue
2.22 Thu May 21 11:30:00 2009
-Helios::Service: fixed a bug in getFuncidFromDb() that caused
services to fail to load properly if there was no entry for them
in FUNCMAP table.
-helios.pl: Several revisions to make it a more robust daemon. Now
honors TERM signal; 'kill <pid>' from a shell will attempt to
safely shut down workers and daemon process w/o using Panoptes
-Documentation updates
2.21 Thu May 14 17:00:00 2009
-added set/getJob() accessors to facilitate access to current
Helios::Job object from methods other than run()
2.20 Tue Apr 28 18:00:00 2009
-various tweaks for cross-platform compatibility
-documentation additions/corrections
-added Helios::LogEntry::Levels to remove dependencies on
Sys::Syslog
-helios.pl: Cleaned up messages to console after daemonize
-helios.pl + Helios::Service: added support for WORKER_MAX_TTL
config param
-Helios::Service: added JobClass() allow extensible Helios::Job
classes
-Helios::Service: added MaxRetries() and RetryInterval() to replace
TheSchwartz's max_retries() and retry_interval() (this is not an
abitrary change; it's to allow for extensions at the Helios layer
in the future)
-Helios::Service: added default run() method for class completeness
(it throws a Helios::Error::FatalNoRetry error because you forgot
to implement a run() method)
-Helios::Service: removed logging to syslogd to eliminate
Sys::Syslog dependency (see HeliosX::ExtLoggerService)
-Helios::Service: added set/getFuncid(), getFuncidFromDb() and
changed jobWaiting() to use them. This eliminates an unnecessary
database query previously done every time jobsWaiting() was called
-Helios::Service: added support for log_priority_threshold config
param
-Helios::Job: added getFailures() to access the number of times a
job has previously failed
