Changes for version 0.013_02 - 2013-10-07

  • Have the expansion of ~~ throw an exception if the configuration directory does not exist. Skip test of ~~ expansion in this case. Improve tests that compare path to expected, to handle better the case where the path contains a symbolic link.

Changes for version 0.013_01 - 2013-10-06

  • Fixed failure in Astro::App::Satpass2::Format->decode( 'desired_equinox_dynamical' ) when the value was not 0. In file name expansion, made ~~/... expand to configuration directory. Added the ability to implement a macro as Perl code. These are handled by Astro::App::Satpass2::Macro::Code. The corresponding satpass2 syntax is 'macro load Module_name'. Document this in TUTORIAL. Updated required version of Astro::SpaceTrack to one that supports the REST interface. Require Astro::Coord::ECI 0.57 because of the international launch designator problems introduced in 0.051_01. Make load_package() optionally callable as a method so it can use the same error reporting mechanism as everyone else if it is available. Add options to the load_package() calling sequence: lib (which directory to add to @INC), complain (how to report validation failures), and fatal (whether and how to report failures to load the module). A true value of 'fatal' causes the failure not to be cached so that another load of the module will produce the same failure. Made $satpass2->time_parser( base => ... ) both parse an input time and return a formatted time. Made time parsing conform to the documentation in that if the time was defaulted, the default sets the base time for the parser. Implement Astro::App::Satpass2 method sky( lookup => ... ) in terms of the Astro::SIMBAD::Client script method rather than the query() method, since the former does not use SOAP::Lite.
