Changes since 1.42:
- do not create files in blib directories under core
(perl change #19160, from rgs)
- detypo s/VTLARM/VTARLM/ (perl change #19328, from mjd)
- guarantee that $xdefine in HiRes.t is always defined
(perl change #19109, from IlyaZ)
- a cleaner way to detect PERL_CORE (perl change #19111,
from IlyaZ)
- add hints/irix.pl to turn off overly POSIX flags that
cause hide struct timespec to be hidden (and compilation
to fail) (bleadperl change #19085)
- documentation tweaks
Makefiles simply need to use this value often, for better or for
worse.
(2) Create a new variable FIX_RPATH that lists variables that should
be cleansed of -R or -rpath values if ${_USE_RPATH} is "no". By
default, FIX_RPATH contains LIBS, X11_LDFLAGS, and LDFLAGS, and
additional variables may be appended from package Makefiles.
Patch from Jeremy C. Reed via PR pkg/20321.
Changes:
1.42:
=====
- modernize the constants code (from Nicholas Clark)
1.41:
=====
- At some point the ability to figure our the correct incdir
for EXTERN.h (either a core perl build, or an installed perl)
had broken (which lead into all test compiles failing with
a core perl build, but thanks to the robustness of Makefile.PL
nothing of was visible). The brokenness seemed to be caused
by $ENV{PERL_CORE} not being on for core builds? Now stole
a trick from the Encode that sets $ENV{PERL_CORE} right, and
both styles of build should work again.
1.40:
=====
- Nicholas Clark noticed that the my_catdir() emulation function
was broken (which means that we didn't really work for Perls
5.002 and 5.003)
- inspired by fixing the above made the whole Makefile.PL -w
and strict clean
- tightened up the Makefile.PL output, less whitespace
1.39:
=====
- fix from Craig Berry for better building in VMS with PERL_CORE
Revision history for Perl extension Time::HiRes.
1.38
- no functional changes
- move lib/Time/HiRes.pm as Hires.pm
- libraries scanning was slightly broken (always scanned
for a library even when $Config{libs} already had it)
1.37
- Ray Zimmerman ran into a race condition in Mac OS X.
A 0.01-second alarm fired before the test expected.
The test first slept indefinitely (blocking for signals)
and only after that tested for the signal having been sent.
Since the signal had already been sent, the test #12 never
completed. The solution: test first, then block.
- default to being silent on all probing attempts, set the
environment variable VERBOSE to a true value to see the
details (the probing command and the possible errors)
1.36
- do not clear MAN3PODS in Makefile.PL (Radoslaw Zielinski)
- INSTALLDIRS => 'perl' missing which means that Time::HiRes
cannot be upgraded from CPAN to override the 5.8.0 version
(Guido A. Ostkamp)
- Time::HiRes 1.35 could not be dropped as-is to bleadperl
because the include directories did not adjust themselves
if $ENV{PERL_CORE} (Hugo van der Sanden)
- add documentation about the restart of select() under alarm()
1.35
- small documentation tweaks
1.34
- better VMS operation (Craig Berry)
1.33
- our time machine is accelerating: now works with Perl 5.004_01
(tried with 5.003_07 and 5.002 but I get segmentation faults
from running the Makefile.PL with those in Tru64 4.0D)
1.31 and 1.32 add more backward compatibility (now all the way back to
Perl 5.00404), and using nanosleep() (if available) for subsecond sleeps.
1.30 adds all the changes made during the Perl 5.6->5.7->5.8 development
cycle. Most notably portability across platforms has been enhanced,
and the interval timers (setitimer, getitimer) have been added.
Note that the version of Time::HiRes that is included in Perl 5.8.0
calls itself 1.20_00, but it is equivalent to this Time::HiRes version.
Note also that in 1.30 Wegscheid turns over the maintenance to Jarkko
Hietaniemi.
1.20
compatibility is maintained afaict, except an additional "mx" prefix
in the namespace
-make it a "distutils" pkg, so it works with Python-2.2.x
-license change - now freely redistibutable
