- fmt on DESCR
(p5-HTML-Mason-1.09_1 was released for test, and available from CPAN)
Changes since p5-HTML-Mason-1.03
- Fixed locale parser_version 0,8 problem. (submitted by Louis-David Mitterrand)
- Fixed inability to use '/' for comp_root. (reported by Doug Hunt)
- Fixed HTML::Mason::Parser::make_dirs dying when reload_file not defined. (reported by Ivan E. Panchenko)
- Made error_process regexps more specific. (suggested by Vadim Belman)
- Fixed $m->count. (reported by David Wheeler)
- Fixed writing of object files in taint mode. (submitted by Barrie Slaymaker)
- Made it possible to run Makefile.PL without prompts.
The automatic truncation in gensolpkg doesn't work for packages which
have the same package name for the first 5-6 chars.
e.g. amanda-server and amanda-client would be named amanda and amanda.
Now, we add a SVR4_PKGNAME and use amacl for amanda-client and amase for
amanda-server.
All svr4 packages also have a vendor tag, so we have to reserve some chars
for this tag, which is normaly 3 or 4 chars. Thats why we can only use 6
or 5 chars for SVR4_PKGNAME. I used 5 for all the packages, to give the
vendor tag enough room.
All p5-* packages and a few other packages have now a SVR4_PKGNAME.
- Made raw error message accessible from the new error display via
an unobtrusive link.
- Fixed Apache tests when started by a non-root user.
- Added short-circuits for Apache tests on Win32 and on systems with
Apache configurations that cannot be properly parsed.
- Completely redesigned error display. The new display includes a
contextual source listing and readable stacktrace. You can access the
old error behavior with the raw_html and raw_fatal error modes.
- Fixed $m->file to close its filehandle between uses.
- Fixed bad interaction with Mason 1.01 and CPAN module, by adding
version number to ApacheHandler.pm.
- Fixed $m->top_comp to work as documented, and made documentation
- Fixed specification of a component root as "foo => /foo"
- Added 'use Apache.pm' to ApacheHandler.pm, necessary for some
mod_perl installations.
- Implemented configuration of Mason from httpd.conf via PerlSetVar
directives. This removes the need for a handler.pl file in many
cases.
- Revamped ApacheHandler tests to use a real Apache web server and
mod_perl (assuming this is installed). This allows for much better
testing of Mason. However, the test suite takes a bit longer to run
as starting and stopping the server can take a second or two each
time.
- ** Fixed handling of POST requests with query strings via CGI.pm;
the query string arguments were previously ignored, and are now merged
with POST arguments. This is an incompatible change only for those
whose code relied on the arguments missing.
- Added basic validation of arguments to Parser, Interp,
and ApacheHandler constructors.
- Added interp->die_handler, allowing you to install your own
subroutine as $SIG{__DIE__} to catch errors during component
execution. Alternately, you can simply turn the special error
handling off.
- Added interp->use_dhandlers and interp->use_autohandlers, more
intuitive ways to turn on/off dhandlers and autohandlers.
- Eliminated interp->verbose_compile_error, which is no longer needed
and has not worked for some time.
- Documented that you cannot call return() from a <%shared> or <%once>
section.
- Fixed documentation of escaped newline behavior.
- Fixed incorrect code for using mod_perl args method in
eg/session_handler.pl.
