Revision history for FFI-Platypus

0.20      2015-02-05 14:06:11 -0500
  - Added optional wrapper argument to FFI::Platypus#attach
    and FFI::Platypus::Declare#attach
  - Added FFI::Platypus#find_lib method
  - FFI::CheckLib is now a runtime requirement for Platypus
  - Bumped Alien::FFI requirement to 0.06

0.19      2015-02-03 13:34:53 -0500
  - Accept additional extensions, in addition to dlext
    Example: on OS X both .bundle and .dylib can be used
    Example: although arguably wrong, on cygwin sometimes .so is used
  - Added Module::Build::FFI->ffi_dlext class method

0.18      2015-01-30 15:22:07 -0500
  - Improved support for C++ in Module::Build::FFI
  - Module::Build::FFI can now be subclassed to support foreign 
    languages other than C and C++.  See Module::Build::FFI::Rust as an 
    example.
  - Added a hook to allow different names for native types.  See 
    FFI::Platypus::Lang::Rust for an example.
  - Added a hook to allow mangling of symbol (function) names.  See 
    FFI::Platypus::Lang::CPP for an example with C++
  - Module::Build::FFI#ffi_include_dir can now be an array reference
  - Module::Build::FFI#ffi_source_dir can now be an array reference
  - Module::Build::FFI#ffi_libtest_dir can now be an array reference
  - Module::Build::FFI will build assembly source files (with .s
    extensions) in the libtest and ffi directories

0.17      2015-01-28 11:11:02 -0500
  - Allow integer and floating point type default to 0 when not provided
    without warning
  - You can now take the sizeof a custom type (it will be the size of
    the native type that is actually passed on the C argument stack).
  - Sizeof should be faster now as it doesn't look up the other meta
    information or create a hash to contain it
  - Added record type see FFI::Platypus::Type#Records
  - Added bool as a primitive type.

0.16      2015-01-23 17:31:00 -0500
  - Bumping Alien::FFI version requirement up to 0.04
    Thus indirectly Alien::Base to 0.07
    Believe this may fix a cpan testers failure that I am seeing 

0.15      2015-01-23 16:46:27 -0500
  - add FFI::Platypus#ignore_not_found attribute
  - add FFI::Platypus#package method
  - Module::Build::FFI was moved into this distribution
    (formerly distributed as part of FFI-Util)
  - added aliases: uchar, ushort, uint and ulong

0.14      2015-01-22 08:19:42 -0500
  - Fixed some broken links in the documentation

0.12      2015-01-21 23:22:16 -0500
  - First CPAN release
  - Improved documentation
  - Functionally identically to 0.11

0.11      2015-01-21 16:33:58 -0500
  - Release candidate 2
  - arguments are available during custom return type even when
    platform does not support alloca
  - More documentation and examples
  - FFI::Platypus::API now use prototypes so you can skip the ()

0.10      2015-01-20 04:06:17 -0500
  - Release candidate 1
  - Added custom Types API (see FFI::Platypus::API)
  - Added String Pointer custom type (FFI::Platypus::Type::StringPointer)
  - Added Pointer / Size Buffer custom type (FFI::Platypus::Type::PointerSizeBuffer)

0.09      2015-01-19 03:01:48 -0500
  - Third beta
  - moved cast and sizeof from FFI::Platypus::Memory
    into FFI::Platypus methods.
  - cast and size of functions for FFI::Platypus::Declare
  - attach_cast for faster casting
  - renamed FFI::Platypus::Declare#function to
    FFI::Platypus::Declare#attach to more closely match
    the OO interface
  - adjusted custom type interface
    - renamed ffi_to_perl native_to_perl
    - renamed perl_to_ffi perl_to_native
    - type argument is now part of the hash and is called
      native_type

0.08      2015-01-16 10:55:14 -0500
  - Second beta
  - add FFI::Platypus::Buffer
    stole the buffer functions from FFI::Util
    can do this with cast, but cast is slow
  - Fixed bug where cast didn't work with closures.
  - closure data now free'd when it the closure
    goes out of scope (GH#4)

0.07      2015-01-15 18:53:45 -0500
  - First (mostly complete) beta
  - workaround some issues with closures
  - much more comprehensive documentation

0.06      2015-01-14 17:13:57 -0500
  - fix typo in last version that broke 32 bit Perls.  oops.

0.05      2015-01-14 17:04:25 -0500
  - Forth (and mostly complete) alpha
  - custom types written in Perl are supported.
  - bug fixes for 32 bit Perls (with compilers that support int64_t)

0.04      2015-01-13 11:14:54 -0500
  - Third (and incomplete) alpha
  - all basic types supported everywhere
  - closures do not support non basic types or returning strings from a closure

0.03      2015-01-09 15:40:14 -0500
  - Second (and incomplete) alpha
  - closure support added (only integer arguments implmented).
  - memory leak related to closures will be fixed in the next alpha.

0.02      2015-01-07 17:40:35 -0500
  - Early (and incomplete) alpha
