version 0.007; 2011-04-27
* update D::E::RS::RandomOrg to cope with fractional fill percentage
currently being returned by the website
* in D::E::RS::RandomOrg and D::E::RS::RandomnumbersInfo, use HTTP::Lite
instead of heavyweight LWP
* use full stricture in test suite
* in Build.PL, complete declaration of configure-time requirements
* explicitly state version required of Params::Classify
* include META.json in distribution
* add MYMETA.json and MYMETA.yml to .cvsignore
version 0.006; 2009-11-21
* be more stringent in parsing responses from networked entropy sources
* in documentation, point more prominently to Data::Entropy::Algorithms
* in documentation of Data::Entropy::Algorithms, more discussion of
overriding CORE::rand, including how to override it globally
* abandon use of the "fields" module
* use simpler "parent" pragma in place of "base"
* check for required Perl version at runtime
* in test suite, properly quote first argument to use_ok (lack of
quoting caused false test failures on Perl 5.11.2)
* in Build.PL, explicitly declare configure-time requirements
* remove bogus "exit 0" from Build.PL
version 0.005; 2009-03-03
* bugfix: require bugfixed version of Data::Float (for $SIG{__DIE__}
handling)
* in D::E::RS::RandomOrg and D::E::RS::RandomnumbersInfo, be more
stringent in parsing the returned data, to avoid potentially
generating non-byte bytes
* test POD syntax and coverage, and rename some internal functions
and make a small style change in documentation to satisfy the
coverage test
* drop prototypes from method subs (where the prototypes have no effect)
* in tests, avoid unreliable "\d" and "\w" regexp elements
* remove a stray "use Crypt::Rijndael" from one of the test scripts
* build with Module::Build instead of ExtUtils::MakeMaker
* complete dependency list
* express relationship with versions of Math::BigInt and Math::BigRat
as conflicts rather than dependencies
* include signature in distribution
* in documentation, separate "license" section from "copyright" section
version 0.004; 2007-09-03
* in D::E::RS::CryptCounter, construct the SEEK_* constants explicitly
instead of importing from Fcntl, to avoid requiring a version of
Fcntl that is only supplied with perl v5.8
* test explicitly for correct class of results
version 0.003; 2007-01-21
* avoid "my __PACKAGE__", for compatibility with perl v5.6
* markup fix in documentation for rand_flt()
version 0.002; 2006-08-05
* bugfix: rand_flt() with subnormal limits was horribly inefficient
* in rand(), don't attempt to generate a 48-bit fraction on systems
where it can't be represented, fall back to the longest possible
fraction
* in rand_fix(), use low-level floating point code from Data::Float
instead of doing it here
* expand documentation of rand()
version 0.001; 2006-08-03
* new function rand_flt() to generate a random floating point value
in a floating point way
* bugfix: in BigRat handling, use ->as_number instead of ->as_int
for BigRat->BigInt conversion, because ->as_int is faulty before
Math::BigRat version 0.14 but ->as_number is available in much earlier
versions (the version specified in Makefile.PL was one where ->as_int
was faulty)
* use standard interval notation in the Data::Entropy::Algorithms
documentation
* use "=> 0" instead of "=> undef" in unversioned dependencies in
Makefile.PL
* don't include underscore in string version of module version numbers
in Makefile.PL
* remove a redundant BigRat->BigInt conversion
version 0.000; 2006-07-19
* initial released version
