[TESTING]
remove useless use of Test::Deep in tests
this patch was sourced from the fedora perl-devel mailing list[1],
in which i see more patches for CGI - fedora perl-devel people: if
you're going to patch modules then please send those patches upstream
where relevant. many perl modules are now on github (including this
one) so it's easy, and it prevents alternate versions of modules
that could lead to frustrating debugging sessions because *your*
version of FCGI (2.04) is different to what the *real* version of
FCGI (2.04) is[2].
* [1] https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/perl-devel
* [2] the "real" version of FCGI being that available on CPAN
2.04 2014-10-12
[TESTING]
- Fix tests for recent version of CGI (v4.05+), which removed the
-private_tempfiles pragma and PRIVATE_TEMPFILES variable, so use
on that is still available for testing
2.03 2014-09-06
[DOCUMENTATION]
- Kwalitee improvements in distribution (LICENSE)
[TESTING]
- Add t/006_changes.t to check Changes file
2.02 2014-06-05
[INTERNALS]
- allow FCGI_SOCKET_PATH and FCGI_LISTEN_QUEUE ENV variables to be
passed in as import settings, although favour ENV variables if set
- delay creation of FCGI::Request until the first call to CGI::Fast->new
(RT #70609), removing the need to defined these in a BEGIN block
- add test to check ENV values are not recycled from old requests and not
set as defaults when the FCGI_SOCKET_PATH is used (RT #65492)
- add file_handles method to allow setting of file handles to be passed
to FCGI (RT #94423)
[DOCUMENTATION]
- document above changes
- general tidy up
CGI::Fast is a subclass of the CGI object created by CGI.pm. It is
specialized to work with the FCGI module, which greatly speeds up
CGI scripts by turning them into persistently running server
processes. Scripts that perform time-consuming initialization
processes, such as loading large modules or opening persistent
database connections, will see large performance improvements.
