This module provides a Perl interface to the amazing Graphviz, an open source
graph visualization tool from AT&T.
It is called GraphViz2 so that pre-existing code using (the Perl module)
GraphViz continues to work. GraphViz2 V 1 is not backwards compatible with
GraphViz V 2, despite the considerable similarity.
This module is a 'Bare' XML parser. It is implemented in C. The parser itself
is a simple state engine that is less than 500 lines of C. The parser builds
a C struct tree from input text. That C struct tree is converted to a Perl
hash by a Perl function that makes basic calls back to the C to go through
the nodes sequentially.
Tie::Function simplifies wrapping functions in tied hash syntax
so they can be interpolated in double-quoted literals without
messy intermediate variables.
Set::Array allows you to create arrays as objects and use OO-style methods on
them. Many convenient methods are provided here that appear in the FAQ's, the
Perl Cookbook or posts from comp.lang.perl.misc. In addition, there are Set
methods with corresponding (overloaded) operators for the purpose of Set
comparison, i.e. +, ==, etc.
The purpose is to provide built-in methods for operations that people are
always asking how to do, and which already exist in languages like Ruby. This
should (hopefully) improve code readability and/or maintainability. The other
advantage to this module is method-chaining by which any number of methods may
be called on a single object in a single statement.
The 'Log::Handler' is a object oriented handler for logging, tracing and
debugging. It is very easy to use and provides a simple interface for
multiple output objects with lots of configuration parameters. You can
easily filter the amount of logged information on a per-output base,
define priorities, create patterns to format the messages and reload the
complete logging machine.
Config::Properties is a near implementation of the java.util.Properties API.
It is designed to allow easy reading, writing and manipulation of Java-style
property files.
Pkgsrc changes:
* Adapt to changes in list of installed files
* Remove a now-irrelevant patch, add another as a workaround
for a timing-dependent patch (done differently in later revisions)
Upstream changes:
- Core
+ The mark VTABLE was added to the Select PMC
+ The Parrot::Embed Perl 5 module was removed from parrot.git and now lives
at https://github.com/parrot/parrot-embed
+ A set_random method was added to the Integer PMC, so random numbers can
be generated without needing to load math dynops
+ A new implementation of green threads was added to Parrot, in preparation
for a robust hybrid threading system. Green threads are currently
not available on Windows.
- Languages
+ Winxed
- 'multi' modifier improved
- throw "string" now emits throw instead of die
- several optimizations in generated code
- improved some error dianostics
- Community
+ Parrot Foundation was accepted to Google Code-In 2011. We
could always use more volunteers. Task ideas are on the wiki:
https://github.com/parrot/parrot/wiki/Google-Code-In-Task-Ideas
- Documentation
- Tests
+ Added tests for recently-fixed bugs using return :flat and
ResizableStringArrays.

pkgsrc changes:
- adjust dependencies according to distributions meta information
Upstream changes:
0.04 2012-02-08
- Some small test changes for the latest Module::Implementation and
Class::Load. There is no need to upgade if you have 0.03 installed.
from 0.13 to 0.18.
pkgsrc changes:
- adjusting dependencies according to distribution meta information
Upstream changes:
0.18 2012-02-18
- Require Package::Stash 0.14+. Fixes RT #75095. Reported by Zefram.
0.17 2012-02-12
- A bug in Class::Load caused test failures when Module::Runtime 0.012 was
used with Perl 5.8.x. Reported by Zefram. RT #74897. ( Jesse Luehrs )
0.16 2012-02-12
- Require Module::Runtime 0.012, which has a number of useful bug fixes.
0.15 2012-02-08
- Small test changes to accomodate latest version of
Module::Implementation. There's no need to upgrade if you're already using
0.14
0.14 2012-02-06
- Use Module::Implementation to handle loading the XS or PP versions of the
code. Using this module fixes a few bugs.
- Under taint mode, setting an implementation in the CLASS_LOAD_IMPLEMENTATION
env var caused a taint error.
- An invalid value in the CLASS_LOAD_IMPLEMENTATION env var is now detected
and reported immediately. No attempt is made to load an invalid
implementation.
version 0.06 into devel/p5-Module-Distribution as requirement
for scheduled update of devel/p5-Class-Load to 0.18.
This module abstracts out the process of choosing one of several
underlying implementations for a module. This can be used to provide
XS and pure Perl implementations of a module, or it could be used to
load an implementation for a given OS or any other case of needing
to provide multiple implementations.
This module is only useful when you know all the implementations ahead
of time. If you want to load arbitrary implementations then you
probably want something like a plugin system, not this module.
devel/p5-Module-Runtime from 0.011 to 0.013.
pkgsrc changes:
- remove dependency to devel/p5-Params-Classify
Upstream changes:
version 0.013; 2012-02-16
* fix false failure of the test for lack of unintended dependencies
that occurred on systems using a sitecustomize.pl
version 0.012; 2012-02-12
* work around Perl core bug [perl #68590] regarding leakage of %^H
into modules being loaded
* work around Perl core bug that made a failed module loading appear
successful when re-requiring the same module
* duplicate is_string() from Params::Classify, rather than importing it,
to avoid circular dependency problems (affecting both installation
and runtime)
* duplicate minimal exporting behaviour from Exporter, and avoid using
the "feature", "warnings", "strict", and "parent" pragmata, to allow
for possible future use of this module by any infrastructure module
* document core bug workarounds
* document module name syntax more prominently, and discuss the state
of Unicode handling
* tweak documentation of use_package_optimistically()
* test behaviour with tainted module name
* test lack of unwanted eval frame around require
* give test modules more meaningful names
* convert .cvsignore to .gitignore

"insecure rcfile" warning.
0.006009 - 01 Feb 2012
- Be adaptive about whether to delete the line reallocation filter,
so as to play as nicely as possible with other kinds of source filter.

2.120630 2012-03-03 14:48:35 EST5EDT
[BUGFIX]
- CPAN::Meta::Requirements now ensures that dotted-decimal versions are
represented in normalized form when stringified. This fixes a
regression in META conversion in 2.120620.
[Reported by Kent Fredric; fixed by David Golden]
2.120620 2012-03-02 12:28:59 EST5EDT
[ADDED]
- CPAN::Meta::Requirements::add_string_requirements allows building
a requirements specification piecemeal [Cory G. Watson]
[BUGFIX]
- Version range handling fixed [rt.cpan.org #75424]
- CPAN::Meta::Converter handles bad version strings more gracefully,
truncating alphanumerics and otherwise falling back to "0". This
is likely better than dropping a prerequisite or dying.
