Revision history for Perl extension ExtUtils::Depends.

0.304 Wed Jan 26 08:48:18 CET 2011

• More robust detection of gcc toolchains on Win32 (Closes: RT#62455) (sisyphus).
• Don't assume dlltool is called 'dlltool' on Win32+gcc. Ask Config.pm instead (Closes: RT#62455) (sisyphus).

0.303 Mon Nov 29 19:42:59 CET 2010

• Fix a race condition when running the tests in parallel.

0.302 Sat Jul 4 15:28:35 CEST 2009

• Create import libraries if necessary to fix linking when gcc is used on MSWin32 (Strawberry Perl, for example).

0.301 Sat Sep 6 20:11:01 CEST 2008

• On Cygwin, link directly against the DLLs of dependencies. Patch by Yaakov.
• Require perl 5.6.0.

0.300 Sun Mar 30 17:35:35 CEST 2008

• On MSWin32 and cygwin, find the link libraries of dependencies and put them into LIBS.
• Add tests.
• Correct typos in the documentation.
• In get_makefile_vars, comment out the code that put the installed libraries into @OBJECT, which caused them to get deleted on realclean.
• In Makefile.PL, don't use the bogus package "MAIN".
• Remove debug spew.

0.205 Sun Jan 23 13:20:14 EST 2005

• Disable the RPM-related postamble on Win32. The 'date' command on windows is interactive, and caused Makefile.PL to hang.

0.204 Sun Sep 19 23:26:23 CEST 2004

• Use capitals at the start of everything that is printed out, to unify Makefile.PL output.

0.203 Fri Mar 12 16:09:35 EST 2004

• don't output a PM pair from get_makefile_vars unless we actually have data in the pm key.

0.202 Fri Mar 5 00:26:18 EST 2004

• add long-overdue version-checking import implementation.
• fixed a bad initial value bug that caused crashes if your setup did not need a call to set_libs. [Ross]
• distribute the spec file. [Ross]

0.201 Thu Feb 12 15:33:47 EST 2004

• add_headers() is now deprecated. it's functionality is provided by install(), and it is already a no-op in 0.200.
• remove code referring to @headers, since we don't actually keep a separate list of headers anymore. (should we?)
• load() no longer returns the "header" key -- it should've been "headers", but i've simply removed all that code.

0.200 Tue Feb 10 01:21:57 EST 2004

• completely rewritten. attempted to retain backward compatibility, but some esoteric functionality is probably missing. now stores dependency lists, so that module chaining is more useful.
• document just about everything.
• really, really, really needs a regression test suite.

0.104 Fri Nov 21 01:34:57 EST 2003

• remove debian packaging files
• add licensing terms to pod. Depends was originally part of gtk-perl, which itself bore this copyright notice.

0.103 Fri Aug 15 09:59:42 EDT 2003

• add files for maintaining debian packages.

0.102 Tue Jul 8 14:10:29 EDT 2003

• use File::Spec->file_name_is_absolute instead of non-portable m{^/}. still uses direct string manipulation on paths, but this fix lets the module function correctly under native Win32 perl.

0.101 Fri Jun 20 23:37:19 CEST 2003

• added primitive load-only testsuite.

0.1 Thu Jun 19 01:29:25 CEST 2003

• original version; created by extracting it from glib.
