Large-scale code clean-up driven by Perl::Critic. All critic
flags down to severity 1 now removed.
* MANIFEST
Forgot to add t/90_rt54494_blessed_refs.t when it was created.
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.10.1 -> 5.12.1.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.
sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the
way. Thanks!

Follow-up to previous commit, some serialization-related

RT #27778: Fix problems with child-process management on

according to the person reporting, it doesn't work at all on

Upstream changes:
0.64 Mon Sep 29 04:20:02 PDT 2008
t/40_server.t:
Further flexibility on the test of $srv->url(). This should (finally)
catch any variation of 127.* address and/or host/domain naming that
aliases to "localhost".
lib/RPC/XML/Parser.pm:
t/20_parser.t:
Lingering problem from RT ticket #30354, RPC::XML::Parser did not get
the change committed that included parser-level support for <i8>. Also
added tests for parsing RPC::XML::request objects and all the data-type
objects to the parser test suite (had they been there before, I would
have caught this myself).
0.63 Fri Sep 19 02:22:26 PDT 2008
lib/RPC/XML.pm:
Forgot to increment $VERSION before the previous commit. Won't show up
in CPAN as an available update otherwise.
0.62 Fri Sep 19 02:12:02 PDT 2008
t/40_server.t:
Extended the die message when $srv fails to allocate. Some testers are
getting a failure here but I have no idea how or why.
lib/RPC/XML.pm:
Testers-service reports showed that the new i8 type was not auto-boxing
correctly on true 64-bit machines. Turns out I had bogus values for
the maximums and minimums, not just for 8-byte ints but also for plain
4-byte ones as well.
0.61 Mon Sep 15 01:38:44 PDT 2008
t/00_load.t:
Converted to Test::More due to some cpan-testers reports that showed
test 2 failing. Hoping this might provide better feedback if it
continues to fail.
t/40_server.t:
Changed a test for "localhost:$port" in the server URL method to
optionally allow localhost.localdomain, for those systems whose
/etc/hosts cause the former to convert to the latter. Was causing
false failures.
t/40_server.t:
t/50_client.t:
t/60_net_server.t:
Test suites armored against server processes that die as a result of
croak() or other calls within 3rd-party modules. The client and
net_server suites were also converted to Test::More at this time.
t/40_server.t:
Fix for RT ticket #36078, fix the URL testing on the server object to
be less strict. Instead of only allowing "localhost", now also allows
"localhost.localdomain" and does a look-up of "localhost" for the 127.*
IP address and permits that as well. In essence, this extends and
supercedes the second change listed above after more invariant cases
were discovered.
lib/RPC/XML.pm:
t/10_data.t:
Per RT ticket #30354 and specific request from a large agency using
this package, implemented an "i8" type as an extension to the official
XML-RPC specification. Documentation and tests included. THIS SHOULD BE
CONSIDERED EXPERIMENTAL.
t/40_server.t:
t/60_net_server.t:
Some of the work in armoring the test suites against server-death
changed the counts on tests and on call-counts in the system.status
method. Some explicit re-starts didn't help.

Related to the main change of RT ticket #30849, fixes potential
problem in the creation of temporary file names if a test script is
run directly from the "t" directory. While at it, added a line with
the Subversion "Id" keyword and set the "svn:keywords" property on
all test scripts. The code-fix is based on suggestions from J??rg
Meltzer <joerg@joergmeltzer.de>.
lib/RPC/XML/Client.pm:
Per RT ticket #30849, fix problem caused by having colons in
temp-file names. Fix largely from patch suggested by J??rg Meltzer
<joerg@joergmeltzer.de>.
lib/RPC/XML/Server.pm:
Applied a modified form of a patch submitted by Mike Rylander
<miker@n2bb.com> to make things work under SSL.
lib/RPC/XML/Server.pm:
t/41_server_hang.t:
Fixed the bug in RPC::XML::Server::process_request() could lead to an
infinite loop if the client shuts down the socket before the full
request is sent. Added a test script specific to this bug, to catch it
if it reappears.
lib/RPC/XML.pm:
t/10_data.t:
Per RT ticket #30042, made a do-nothing branch in
RPC::XML::smart_encode actually die with an error when a
reference-type is passed in that cannot be converted. Added two
tests to cover this, and took the opportunity to convert 10_data.t
to Test::More.
t/40_server.t:
t/50_client.t:
Applied a patch from Chris Darroch to make the spawning of servers
work in some corner-cases that were failing. All that was required
was explicit specification of 'localhost' in the instantiation.
lib/RPC/XML/Parser.pm:
t/20_parser.t:
Applied a patch from Masatake Daimon (????????????) to improve
the performance of the parser by reducing the (vast) number of
string-concat operations. During this change, re-wrote the parser
tests to use Test::More and have better diagnostics.
lib/RPC/XML/Server.pm:
t/40_server.t:
Per RT ticket #29351, fixed a bug that caused a server to incorrectly
report the location and cause of an XML parsing error in the
request. The actual bug and solution were different than initially
reported in the ticket.
lib/RPC/XML.pm:
t/10_data.t:
Per RT ticket #31818, fix to the XML serialization of double values
to conform to the XML-RPC spec, as it does not allow for exponential
notation. This also required changes to the tests, as values were
no longer being auto-truncated at 5 decimal places. Also finished
cleaning up the t/10_data.t test suite with diagnostic messages on
the tests that had not previously gotten them.
lib/RPC/XML.pm:
t/20_parser.t:
In response to concerns raised by a report of parsing problems,
added XML entity encoding for ' and " (' and ") to the base
RPC::XML module, and added a test to the parser suite to make sure
it is correctly turning all core XML entities back into characters
during the parsing process.
lib/Apache/RPC/Server.pm:
lib/RPC/XML/Server.pm:
t/40_server.t:
RT ticket #34557: Provide access to client-side connection info to
methods called on the server, by placing the data from get_peeraddr()
(as abstracted through existing methods in HTTP::Daemon::ClientConn
and Apache::Connection) into localized keys on the server object, as
is already done with the method_name and signature pseudo-keys. Tests
added to 40_server.t and docs updated.

Updated all copyright/redistribution information with current year

The package was originally created by Roman Kulik in pkgsrc-wip. Very
small changes by me.
The RPC::XML package is an implementation of XML-RPC. The module
provides classes for sample client and server implementations, a
server designed as an Apache location-handler, and a suite of
data-manipulation classes that are used by them.
