REVISION HISTORY FOR Set::Object

1.13

• Fix Makefile.PL so this Changes.pod is not delivered as Set::Changes :-}

• Restore compatibility with 5.6.0

• Remove some compile-time warnings, please let me know if this version does not build on any platform!

1.12, 30 Aug 2005

• added patch from Sergey Skvortsov for backwards compatibility with Perl versions before 5.8 (include >100k ppport.h!)

• removed 'set()' constructor from default export list, as its name conflicts with too many other modules.

1.11, 27 Apr 2005

• removed debugging &_ func (was causing strange errors on 5.9.1)

1.10, 2 Apr 2005

• added 'set()' constructor and use-as-array-ref interface

1.09, 26 Mar 2005

• added 'bool' overload operator to Set::Object. For backwards compatibility, always returns true.

1.08_02, 14 Jan 2005

• Cutting out the "Universe" representation; this module gives plain sets only.

• documentation fixes

1.08_01, 12 Jan 2005

• First attempt at adding support for scalars. This version tries to work as closely to Set::Scalar as possible.

  This approach will not be continued unless there are a lot of requests for it to be implemented. I think it's overly complicated, and not what people expect when they want a Set.

1.08, 14 Oct 2004

• another segfault bites the dust; this time, avoids a segfault when taking a difference between sets of exactly 31 and 0 size. Same root fault as the previous bug, this time I have a test case for it, too.

1.07, 16 Aug 2004

• yet another segfault fix, this time due to incorrect use of PUSHs vs XPUSHs. There is no test case for this bug unfortunately.

1.06, 1 May 2004

• Fixed segfault when attempting to remove items from an empty set (fix from Richard Sterling Cox)

1.05, 5 Jan 2004

• some segfault fixes with Storable and Perl 5.6.1 (Perl 5.8.1 should be OK)

1.04, 3 Aug 2003

• added various functions similar to some found in Scalar::Util, but with an extra one that performs a function that lays some groundwork for Container::Object (ish_int).

  Some of these functions were in the XS code anyway, and they are extremely small, so I didn't see a problem with duplicating them - saves an extra dependancy. Plus, Graham Barr won't let me put ish_int or is_key in his module.

  Knowing that they are available will also assist in fixing some longer standing bugs in Tangram (eg, using $obj + 0 to get a unique ID when refaddr($obj) would be better)

• lots more input marshalling; if you ever end up doing funny things to a Set::Object, then at least now you'll get a clearer error message.

• more tests; Devel::Cover test coverage now at 91% (stmt), 67% (branch)

• erroneously putting scalars into Set::Objects now no longer dumps core.

• serialisation of Set::Object objects is now possible via the Storable module (Data::Dumper still does the wrong thing, but there is nothing I can do about that).

1.03, 24 Jan 2003

• fixed overload related bug
