Revision history for Fatal

1.10_07  Sun Jun 29 15:54:26 AUSEST 2008
	* RELEASE CODENAME: "ikegami", in thanks for solving the problem
          of getting lexical replacement of subroutines working for real
          under Perl 5.8.  As this works better than my 5.10 implemenation,
          it forms the foundation for this release.

	* Removed inappropriate diagnostics about :lexical from Fatal.pm

	* Moved can't mix lexical and void diagnostics to autodie.pm

	* Added some basic tests for sysopen()

	* Removed the 5.10 only way of tracking lexical hints with
	  %^H.  Our code now exclusively uses the more portable
	  5.8 code that employs Scope::Guard (and has less side-effects).

	* Exotic system is no longer clobbered under 5.10 outside of
	  autodie's scope.

	* autodie::exception::match is better exercised in the 5.8
	  test suite.

	* Re-enabled 'use autodie' vanilla tests.

	* t/backcompat.t no longer fails under Devel::Cover

	* Repeating function names in arguments to autodie no
	  longer causes those functions to become 'stuck' in
	  autodying mode.

	* Wrong-version of Fatal.pm support added, along with basic
	  hints on how to get it working.

	* Expanded documentation on autodie, particularly for
	  exception handling under Perl 5.8.

	* Less warnings from t/exceptions.t when running under 5.10.

	* All releases now really depend upon Scope::Guard, not just 5.8.

1.10_06 Sun Jun 22 21:50:39 AUSEST 2008

	* RELEASE CODENAME: "Chocolateboy", in thanks for his wonderful
	  insights, and for letting me sound off way too many ideas
	  about how things may be done.

	* Fixed speeling errors in context.t, thanks to Stennie.

	* Fixed minor pod errors and omissions.

	* Fixed bug in recv.t which resulted in an incorrect number
	  of skipped tests on systems using socketpair emulation.

	* Fixed a bug that would cause unwanted interactions between
	  autodie and autobox.  Thanks to chocolateboy. (5.8)

	* Wrote a (failing) test case demonstrating that the
	  autodie pragma could leak across files.  Many thanks to
	  chocolateboy for bringing this to my attention.

	* t/system.t checks to see if exotic system has been injured
	  in the same package as 'use qutodie qw(system)'

	* Calling filename reliably reported in 5.8 error messages
	  and error objects.

	* User subs can be made autodying under 5.8, but they leak
	  over the entire package (which is very bad!)

	* Context-checking tests split into package-scope tests and
	  lexical scope tests.

	* Lexical user-subs are disabled under Perl 5.8.  They were
	  leaking everywhere and not being lexical at all.  Attempting
	  to use a lexical user-sub under 5.8 now causes an error.

	* Bugs found in interaction between autodie and Fatal in
	  5.8.  When used together, we can't reliably replace a
	  Fatalised sub with an autodying one, and then switch it
	  back again at the end of block.

	* Bugs described above fixed, thanks to ikegami!

	* Overhauled _remove_lexical_subs, based on ikegami's
	  input.  This routine would now be better named
	  "_install_lexical_subs", since it can now both
	  install and remove.

	* Surpressed some warnings under 5.8 about uninitialised
	  hints hashes.

	* Added support for backwards compatible Fatal calls in
	  5.8.  These are currently a little *too* backwards compatible,
	  possessing the same bugs as the old Fatal (clobbering
	  context).

	* Improved caching of pre-generated subroutines.  We now
	  cache the compiled subroutine, rather than the uncompiled
	  code.

	* Added more tests to ensure Fatal throws backcompat
	  strings, whereas autodie throws exception objects.

	* Support for lexical user-subs enabled, tested, and working
	  in 5.8!

	* Added resources to Makefile.PL / META.yml


1.10_05 Sun Jun 15 15:46:38 AUSEST 2008
	* Kludgy support for Perl 5.8 using Scope::Guard and dark
	  and terrible magicks taken from namespace::clean.

	* Rudimentary caching of generated code, to avoid having
	  to regenerate the same code every single time Fatal/autodie
	  is used on the same function.

	* Nuking subroutines at end of lexical scope moved into
	  own subroutine.

	* Perl 5.8 support working!  Backcompat mode not yet
	  supported, nor is autodie with user defined subs.
	  The 5.8 support that is there is rather kludgy, and
	  still needs a lot of work.

	* Perl 5.8 code no longer gets executed under 5.10 when
	  executing write_invocation().

	* lex58.t tells the user that we'll get warnings under
	  Win32, and these are to be ignored.  This is due to
	  a Perl behaviour where it always calls the shell under
	  Win32, even when multi-arg system is used.

	* lex58.t no longer fails to compile on Perl 5.10 which
	  is still clobbering exotic open.  Perl 5.8 does not
	  clobber the exotic form.

	* Backcompat tests are all marked as TODO under perl 5.8

	* Makefile.PL moved back to saying autodie works under 5.8

	* Context/user-sub tests skipped under 5.8, which does
	  not yet support autodying of user subs.

	* lex58 tests now skipped if IPC::System::Simple not installed.

	* Squished a spurious warning from lex58.t

1.10_04 Sat Jun 14 15:02:17 AUSEST 2008
	* Made all $VERSION numbers more friendly to static code
	  analysis tools (including CPAN).
	* Added a test to make sure all version numbers are incremented
	  in lock-step.

	* Started 5.8 support
		* Removed dependencies on 5.10 'use feature'.
		* Removed dependencies on 5.10 fieldhashes.
		* a::e::match no longer uses smart-match or //
		* %^H init doesn't use // anymore.
		* 5.8 won't try to use // in fatalised subs (kludge)

	* recv.t corrected to use a custom socket (closed for writing)
	  and to ignore SIGPIPEs.

1.10_03 Fri Jun 13 11:04:17 AUSEST 2008
	* Updated backwards compatibility tests to work on
	  non-Enligh systems.

1.10_02 Fri Jun 13 10:55:00 AUSEST 2008
	* Tweaked boilerplate test to remove windows-only paths.

1.10_01	Thu Jun 12 17:19:13 AUSEST 2008
	* First beta release of module.

1.09	UNRELEASED
	* Many changes not documented here.
	* Fatal is now fully backwaards compatible again.
	* system() can be fatalised/autodying if IPC::System::Simple
	  is installed.
	* Rationlisation of autodie::exception API.
	* autodie::exception->function() now always returns the
	  full function name as best we can find it, and not
	  what may be getting replaced (eg, CORE::open instead of
	  main::open).

1.08	Sat Mar 29 10:54:20 AUSEDT 2008
        Dual-lifed module internally from work I was doing on p5p.
