CHANGES
-------
2.003 2 January 2007
* Added explicit version checking
2.002 29 December 2006
* Documentation updates.
* Added IO::Handle to the ISA test in isaFilehandle
* Add an explicit use_ok test for Scalar::Util in the test harness.
The error message reported by 01misc implied the problem was
somewhere else.
Also explictly check that 'dualvar' is available.
2.001 1 November 2006
* Remove beta status.
2.000_14 26 October 2006
* IO::Uncompress::Base
Added support for $/ in record mode
* IO::Uncompress::Base
The readline interface was substantially slower than the 1.x
equivalent. This has now been sorted.
Thanks to Andreas J. Koenig for spotting the problem.
* IO::Uncompress::AnyUncompress
Added IO::Uncompress::Lzf to the list of supported uncompresors.
* IO::Uncompress::Base
Added TrailingData to one-shot interface.
* IO::Uncompress::AnyUncompress
Remove raw-deflate (RFC1951) from the default list of compressors
to check.
It can still be included if the new RawInflate parameter is
supplied.
This change was made because the only way to tell if content is
raw-deflate is to attempt to uncompress it - a few false positives
have popped up recently, which suggests that auto-detecting raw
deflate is far from perfect.
The equivalent change has been made to IO::Uncompress::AnyInflate.
[Core patch #28445]
* Don't check that filehandles are writable. It would seem that
"-w *STDOUT" on windows returns false.
[Core Patch #28415]
2.000_13 20 June 2006
* Store compress & uncompressed sizes as 64-bit.
* For one-shot uncompression, like this
unzip "some.zip" => \@a, MultiStream => 1;
Push each uncompressed stream from "some.zip" onto @a.
* Added IO::Compress::Base::FilterEnvelope
* Added IO::Uncompress::Base::nextStream
* The '-' filehandle now maps to either *STDIN or *STDOUT.
This keeps mod_perl happier. Was using these before
new IO::File("<-")
new IO::File(">-")
2.000_12 3 May 2006
2.000_11 10 April 2006
* Transparent + InputLength made more robust where input data is not
compressed.
2.000_10 13 March 2006
* AnyUncompress doesn't assume that IO-Compress-Zlib is installed any
more.
2.000_09 3 March 2006
* Released to CPAN.
2.000_08 2 March 2006
* Split IO::Compress::Base into its own distribution.
* Added opened, autoflush and input_line_number.
* Beefed up support for $.
