3.20
- use strict UTF-8 (suggested by Dennis Vierkant)
3.19
3.18
- broke apart Metadata from Encapsulation
- now uses XML::SAX in Response, rt.cpan.org ticket #27191
- shifted all use's into HTTP::OAI
- added use strict(), use warnings() to every module
- shifted $VERSION in HTTP::OAI
- href attribute lookup in METS should be namespaced too
- added mets test case
- fixed test cases for changed XML output
3.17
- Removed next() call from oai_browser for List*
- Fixed missing HTTP:: in ListIdentifiers documentation
- Fixed missing namespace initialization in SAX
- Fixed bug in request where '?' wasn't being removed
3.16
- Fixed recursion bug in onRecord
- No longer need to call next() for onRecord (Harvester will do it for you)
- Added PartialList module (ListIdentifiers, ListRecords, ListSets)
3.15
- Several bug fixes, particularly catching and throwing parsing errors
- Added onRecord argument to ListRecords, ListIdentifiers, ListSets
- INCOMPATIBLE: Changed error handling, so now only need to check after the
next() loop for both initial errors and flow errors
- Added is_deleted method to Record and Header
3.14
- By default oai-lib now fixes bad UTF-8 characters (replacing with '?')
To disable this set $HTTP::OAI::UserAgent::IGNORE_BAD_CHARS to 0
- Fixed bug where a partially downloaded utf-8 character could cause a harvest to fail
3.13
3.12
- BUG: Static repository was re-fetching the source for every request
- API change: when parsing a static repository records are now pre-parsed to allow for quick GetRecord access, this means you *must* supply the handlers argument to the Harvester constructor (otherwise the first request's handlers are always used)
- Added resumptionToken option to ListIdentifiers in the oai_browser.pl tool
2005-09-05
- Added -oldstyle_urls to gateway & doc examples [thanks to Patrick Hochstenbach]
2005-04-13
- Improved display of errors in the event of XML parsing failure (bad chars etc.)
- In the event of bad XML resumption token will not sleep(60) and retry, but simply fail
2005-04-08
- Fixed bug where Header wasn't getting end_element on </header>, resulting in deleted items in ListRecords never being flagged as such
2005-04-06
- UserAgent now uses a callback with LWP to parse XML responses, resulting in a much reduced memory footprint
- Compression support is removed for the moment
2005-03-30
- CGI has an annoying habit of return the URL with semi-colons, ::Response now checks for this and acts appropriately
- Header was blanking setSpecs when given a dom (corrected POD for setSpec)
- Fixed Header missing the record status
- Tests added to getrecord.t for parsing Header
- oai_static_gateway.pl now throws an error if given a resumption token (which should never occur because it doesn't use Flow-Control)
2005-03-07
- Fixed undef warning when trying to set the repository to an Identify w/o a base URL
- Changed back to XML::LibXML::SAX::Parser due to unreliability in XML::LibXML::SAX :-(
2005-03-05
- 80network.t && added Prereqs (jaybonci@debian.org RT #11508 & #11509)
2005-02-25
- Added new script 'gateway.pl' that acts as a static repository broker
- Library now uses temporary files to harvest (due to memory leak in LibXML's parse_string), provides for a smaller memory footprint
- Numerous bug fixes
2005-02-23
- Added support for harvesting from Static repositories
- Fixed bug where the error message for an unsupported namespace wasn't getting displayed
2004-10-08
- Moved to namespace HTTP::OAI
- Changed all arguments from -style to 'argument'
- Now uses (in a round-about way) XML::SAX, dropping the requirement for XML::Parser and XML::SAX::PerlSAX
- Fixed some bugs with the DOM construction code (which also effected toString)
