Changes for version 0.20 - 2000-03-20

  • Use ppport.h from Devel::PPPort [C<na> changed to C<PL_na>].
  • Improved how constants are done based on Perl5Porters suggestions [Added F<ExtUtils/Myconst2perl>, eventually to be part of MakeMaker].
  • Added SE_* string constants.
  • Disabled AUTOLOAD and the confusing error messages it generates.
  • Replaced C<_alloca()> with C<sv_grow(sv_newmortal(),size)>.
  • Allow support for build environments with no C<VALENTA>/C<VALENTW>.
  • Use new F<buffers.h> which does typecast so can compile using C++.
  • Changed MIN_GROW_SIZE from 8 to 128 so buffer sizes less needed.
  • Update F<README>.
  • Mention C<regLastError()> anywhere C<$^E> is mentioned.
  • Repeat true/false return value documentation for each routine.
  • Handles are now unsigned to match more accurate constant conversions.
  • Fixed F<test.pl> to use C<regLastError()> instead of C<$^E>.
