1.52 2012-03-19 - Adam Kennedy
- No functional changes
- Updating Module::Install to 1.06
- Moved File::Spec dependency to 3.29 to fix problems with
four-digit decimal dependencies in some downstream packaging
systems.
1.51 2011-10-27 - Adam Kennedy
- END-time deletion by clear() is now fork-safe, it will only remove
paths created in the same process.
1.50 2011-07-11 - Adam Kennedy
- Adding a second skip for the known-bad cygwin file permissions problem
1.49 2011-03-14 - Adam Kennedy
- Restoring 02_directories to no_plan as it runs different test counts
on different systems.
1.48 2011-03-11 - Adam Kennedy
- Promoting dev code to production version
- Fixed a major bug in the 1.46 logic that works out what to change the
cwd to when deleting while inside a directory.
1.47_01 2011-02-18 - Adam Kennedy
- Add test counts to all test scripts
- Added a test for space-safe globs
1.46 2011-02-18 - Adam Kennedy
- No changes from 1.45_01
- CPAN Testers likes the dev release, moving to production release
1.45_01 2011-02-17 - Adam Kennedy
- Updated to Module::Install::DSL 1.00
- Skip test on cygwin due to non-root users not being able to deny
themselves write permissions to files.
- Added a test to delete directories when the current working
directory is inside the location to delete (ADAMK)
- Fixes for trash() with callbacks and on Mac (MIYAGAWA)
1.42 2008-07-03 - Adam Kennedy
- Updated to Module::Install 0.76
- Updated bundled author tests
- Added the test_remove function
- Localising $@ during eval calls
1.41 2008-06-02 - Adam Kennedy
- No functional changes
- Updating location of author tests
- Switching to Module::Install again, to generate a better META.yml
1.40 2008-02-23 - Adam Kennedy
- Dev release looks good, changing to production release
1.39_01 2008-02-20 - Adam Kennedy
- Fixed rt.cpan.org #30251 "removing dirs enclosed by curly braces"
- remove now ignores globbing if -e is true BEFORE globbing
(This should fix numerous possible failures where people are trying
delete strangely named files, but globbing is kicking in and
expanding the names incorrectly)
- Moving to a production-grade version to indicate module stability
- Adding explicit 5.005 dependency
(Primarily for the benefit of automated quality/anaylsis tools)
0.39 2007-11-12 - Adam Kennedy
- No functional changes
- Updating to Module::Install 0.68
0.38 2007-10-15 - Adam Kennedy
- Removed an extremely dangerous and reckless test case that tried
to delete a soft link to root and (when it failed) deleted the
actual root directory.
0.37 2007-07-08 - Adam Kennedy
- Restoring support for broken symlinks (Marek Rouchal)
- Adding tests for the broken symlink case (Marek Rouchal)
- Tidying up the Changes file a bit
0.36 2007-06-30 - Adam Kennedy
- Avoid the installation of Mac::Glue.
(It should not be necesary to test voice synthesis to delete a file)
- Anyone truly needing "trash" support will need to add a dependency
on Mac::Glue themself. The function may be split out of File::Remove
later down the track.
- Constanting the debugger flag for a minor speed and memory improvement
- Copy in a known-readonly flag for more accurate testing on Win32
- Remove assumption that -w implied deletion rights on Win32
- Validate that the file was actually deleted.
- Add better mode-handling for files.
- Add smarter implementation of "candelete" logic.
0.35 2007-02-09
- Update makefile to require Mac::Glue version compatible with Intel macs
- Change pod heading from "methods" to "subroutines" [RT#13687]
- No functional changes from 0.34
0.34 2006-11-06
- Update t/03 to skip the "is this file not writable" test when
it would fail because the tests are being run by root (as sometimes
happens when installing Perl modules).
0.33 2006-10-24
- Previous release tested ok.
- Incrementing for production release.
- No functional changes
0.32_01 2006-10-23
- Use File::Spec to clean/canon paths instead of hand-stripping trailing slash
- Apply the File::Path "safe" check manually for the root only, and
use File::Path itself with safe OFF, so that we can handle deleting
deep readonly files (and do it properly on VMS)
- Added a test for the deletion of deep readonly files
- Removing the use of "our" variables to try and get the Perl version
dependency back to at least 5.005.
- Report "deleted" for non-existant files they want to delete
- Report the path they pass, but for dir USE a File::Spec->canonpath
0.31 2005-12-28
- Applied Eric Hanchrow's patch to support filenames with spaces.
- Skip recycle tests unless recycle/trash support is available.
0.30 2005-07-14
- Applied CNANDOR's patch to fix trash() support on OS X 10.4.
0.29 2004-12-04
- Stabilize undelete support for OS X and Windows.
0.26 2004-11-16
- Fix the synopsis.
0.25 2004-11-15
- Renamed undelete() to trash(), to be more clear.
- Allow users to provide their own rmdir/unlink to trash().
- Re-disabled debugging by default.
0.24 2004-11-15
- Add undelete support for OS X (via Mac::Glue).
- Fix undelete overloading of unlink/rmdir and update tests.
- Fix the documentation to be readable with perldoc.
0.23 2004-11-15
- Add undelete supportand tests (currently only for Win32, via
Win32::FileOp).
0.22 2004-11-15
- Add the first set of tests.
0.21 2004-07-20
- Converted the internals to File::Spec.
- Maintenance transferred by modules@perl.org to Richard Soderberg.
Please e-mail bug reports to <bug-File-Remove@rt.cpan.org>.
0.20 1998-04-15
- Now you can pass a scalar reference as the first argument and it
will used as the recursive flag when removing directories. With
recursive flag set to 0 only the files in the directory are
removed and no attempt is made to recurse into subdirectories.
Nevertheless, if the directory becomes empty it is removed.
0.12 1998-04-14
- change the umask and set the permission on directories so we can
remove the files
0.11 1998-04-13
- changed the return values to successes rather than failures since
it makes more sense.
0.10 1998-04-10
- original version
