---------------------
1.110 Wed Aug 27 2014
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- the 'setpgrp' option can be used to enable/disable the call to
setpgrp() in the spawned process
[TESTS]
- t/10-command.t now ignores environment variables set by ConEmu
1.109 Wed Jul 2 2014
[BUG FIX]
- fix the test failures on Solaris, thanks to Wolfgang Pecho
(RT #82857). The reaper code was actually buggy (since v1.03!)
and only accidentally worked on platforms where WNOHANG == 1
(which was most of them)
1.108 Wed Feb 26 2014
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- the 'trace' option makes it possible to see exactly which commands
were spawned, with their options (including environment)
[DOCUMENTATION]
- style fixes
1.107 Sun Oct 20 2013
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- zombies do not exist under Win32, so no need to warn about
waitpid return value (many thanks to MITHALDU for his
continued help in testing on this platform)
[DOCUMENTATION]
- removed duplicated NAME section
[FUN]
- more zombie quotes in System::Command::Reaper comments
1.106 Sat Oct 12 2013
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- brought back System::Command::Reaper, which properly deals
with zombies
- execute the command in its own process group whenever possible
(thanks to Vincent Pit)
[TESTS]
- test for the zombie processes is not TODO anymore
- tests for the timely destruction of the reaper are back
1.105 Sat Oct 5 2013
[TESTS]
- add a TODO test for the zombie processes created in certain cases
- various other test improvements
1.104 Thu Sep 12 2013
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- fixed for Perl versions < 5.8.9
[DOCUMENTATION]
- minor documentation improvements
[PACKAGING]
- switch to Dist::Zilla for maintaining the distribution
1.103 Mon Jul 29 2013
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- rewrote the _spawn code to work properly under Plack
- version 1.100 and 1.102 re-introduced old bugs: they
have been squished again, and tests fixed to prevent
re-re-introduction
1.102 Fri Jul 26 2013
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- ported an older fix from Git::Repository, to make System::Command
work with modules that do bad things to STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR
(thanks to Todd Rinaldo for his 2010 patch to Git::Repository)
[work done during the patch -p0 hackathon]
1.101 Thu Jul 11 2013
[TESTS]
- various minor test improvements (thanks to Oleg Gashev and mokko)
[DOCUMENTATION]
- minor documentation improvements
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
Upstream changes:
1.100 Sun Apr 14 2013
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- use a IPC::Run-based implementation on Win32
- thanks to a lot of testing help from Christian Walde (MITHALDU)
the test suite passes on Win32
- while working on this, we established that kill 0, $pid is broken
under Win32 (reported to the perl5-porters mailing-list via
<op.wvi2ygw1ydyjqt@digitizedsqueak.lancs.ac.uk>)
1.09 Sun Dec 9 2012
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- list all dependencies and the github public repo in the META files
(RT #81302)
- use Symbol::gensym to create anonumous GLOBs (github #4)
1.08 Mon Nov 26 2012
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- remove a superfluous eval {} that was hiding open3 exception
(RT #80171)
- set a handler for the PIPE signal only if Perl knows about it
a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
devel/p5-System-Command from 1.06 to 1.07.
Upstream changes:
1.07 Wed Apr 18 03:00:50 CEST 2012
[TESTS]
- t/20-zombie.t sometimes failed because of a race condition.
I'm now testing my assumptions, make the test in question a
little bit useless, and closing RT #74959
devel/p5-System-Command from 1.05 to 1.06.
Upstream changes:
1.06 Sun Jan 8 00:36:40 CET 2012
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- add tests that show that I don't understand what I'm doing
with STDIN/OUT/ERR, and remove the offeding code (RT #73614)
language) 1.05 into pkgsrc/devel/p5-System-Command as dependency for
devel/p5-Git-CPAN-Patch update.
System::Command is a class that launches external system commands and
return an object representing them, allowing to interact with them through
their STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR handles.
