Revision history for FrameNet-WordNet-Detour

1.1 09/11/09

• Added documentation
• Made testing more robust

1.0

• Fixed a bug in the weighting algorithm
• Introduced the method version().

0.99c 10/14/06

• Fixed a bug in the documentation: get_message and get_name did not work.

0.99b 10/11/06

• VERY small (but important) bugfix ...

0.99 10/10/06

• Implemented a couple of helper methods in the Frame and Data class to get rid of the dependency on Class::MethodMaker.
• Testing stops if $WNHOME or $FNHOME is not set and gives a readable error message.
• Fixed a bug in the limited condition. In the division for making the results comparable in different runs, the factor was wrongly calculated in limited mode.

0.98 02/25/06

• Switched to the named parameter style (-wnhome => "..."). This means, that old scripts have to be updated. Additionally, one can give the whole QueryData object (-wnquerydata => $obj).
• due to licensing problems, the LU cache is removed from the package. Again, one needs FrameNet to install the detour.
• removed all the Growl code (well, it was mostly useless...). Along with that, we removed the customize-script to make it more reliable and easy to maintain - we're approaching 1.0, you know ;-)

0.97 10/11/05

• Using of File::Spec for platform independency
• the command line script now has growl capabilities if running on Mac OS X. Just install the perl module Mac::Growl and use the parameter "--growl". Find out more about Growl on http://www.growl.info/. The growl code is automatically included at make time if the module Mac::Growl is present
• Redesign of FrameNet::WordNet::Detour::Frame with usage of Class::MethodMaker
• Redesign of FrameNet::WordNet::Detour::Data with usage of Class::MethodMaker
• More documentation
• the command line script is now able to print also the frame evoking element and its similarity
• Cache is now on Version 0.91 (due to the Changes in Detour::Frame and Detour::Data)
• detour is no more static script, but can be configured while installing (make) using the Customizer. It is a pattern that allows the customization of perl code with make. More information about this can be found on www.coli.uni-saarland.de/~reiter/index.php4?action=perl#custom.
• (a lot) more reliable and wide tests
• the LU cache (based on FrameNet 1.2) is now part of the module (script/make-luhash.PL). Therefore, it can be installed without FrameNet. The hash will be created with the installation

0.96 09/27/05

• Fixed several bugs in the demo code
• get_all_framenames in the Data class now works and returns a reference
• Fixed a bug in Detour.pm that causes WordNet::QueryData to produce a lot of error messages
• Fixed a bug: 'word#pos' now returns a list reference with "empty result" if no result found
• query() now recognizes immediately if no synset is given and returns a nice error message
• updated documentation of the detour script

0.95 08/22/05

• Fixed bug, which resulted in choosing the wrong cache
• Better Accessibility of the interesting properties via the Data-object. Additional methods:
  • get_number_of_frames
  • get_weight
  • get_fees
  • get_frame
  • get_best_weight
• Better documentation of the Data-object
• Fixed a bug in the command line script ("-l" did not run the detour in limited mode)
• Fixed a bug in the verbose output
• Command line interface is now called "detour" instead of "Detour"

0.94 08/02/05

• Fixed Makefile bugs
• It is now possible to give the path to WordNet and FrameNet as arguments to new()

0.93 07/23/05

• Improved Caching
• Semantics of WNHOME is now identically with it in other WordNet-related modules
• Detour can now initialize its own QueryData and Similarity objects. In the new-method, they should left out by now. This improves the performance of your scripts severly, since queries that are already cached are answered now without need of the QueryData-object, which takes around 15 seconds to load

0.92 07/22/05

• More documentation
• Introduced a command-line interface called Detour:
  • located in bin/
  • shows the basic use of the Detour
  • requires additional modules: Getopt::Long and Pod::Usage
• Improvements on the robustness of the Detour

0.91 07/22/05

• Better testing capabilities
• More compatibility with CPAN
• More (and better) documentation

0.90 07/21/05

• Initial Release
