This is the CHANGES file for the separated Games::Bingo::Print, which used to be a part of Games::Bingo. So for reference for versions earlier than 0.01 please refer to the Games::Bingo distribution.

Release 0.04 - Mon Mar 19 2007

• Fixed the usual problem in generated Makefile.PL, with bin/ directory being referenced with full path, the fix is to mention in the Build.PL

scripts => {

'bin/bingo_print.pl' => 'bin/bingo_print.pl', },

Release 0.03 - Sat Mar 17 2007, update not necessary

• Updated MANIFEST
• Added MANIFEST.SKIP
• Changed return of undef to a croak in constructor (new), based on feedback from Perl::Critic
• Added t/critic.t and t/perlcriticrc for Perl::Critic test
• Added t/kwalitee.t, for Kwalitee test
• Added t/pod-coverage.t, for POD coverage test
• Updated t/pod.t to more contemporary version
• Cleaned POD, this was really old style POD
• Closed papersize point in the TODO, also added to the script: bin/bingo_print.pl
• Closed PDFLib-lite point in the TODO
• Added generated bingo cards page to examples/bingo.pdf
• Added examples directory
• Changed to Module::Build as build system, Makefile.PL obsolete and will be generated by Module::Build from this release. See Build.PL
• Updated installation documentation, see INSTALL file

Release 0.02 - Released 7th. of january 2004

• Added missing README to the distribution
• Added $VERSION to Games::Bingo::Print::Card
• Exchanged personal email address for CPAN address
• Added t/pod.t for integrity check of POD test
• Changed return value of constructor, croak is no longer called, instead undef is return and a warning is issued.
• Games::Bingo::Print::Card (and tests) have been extracted from this module and is being merged with the Games::Bingo::Card class.
• Turned the card printing around, the card datamodel has also been turned upside down in Games::Bingo::Card now in Games::Bingo 0.09
• Added default value of the empty string, hence the new card data model uses undef, resulting in multiple warnings from PDFLib
• Removed debugging information
• Added requirement of Games::Bingo 0.09 (Games::Bingo::Card 0.02 just for the record)

Release 0.01 - Released 29th. of july 2003

• Encapsulated PDFLib code in print_pages in an eval (the test in Print.t failed for some reason), returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.
• Implemented new parameters to the constructor, so now the filename, heading and subtext can be changed. It defaults to the old values.
• Added use of Getopt::Long to bin/bingo_plates.pl (see above)
• Added t/pod.t, for testing the POD
• Moved PDF Initialisation code into the constructor (makes testing easier).
• Renamed printplate to printcard
• Added return codes to printrow and printcard
• Wrote tests of:
  • printrow
    • printplate
• Renamed bin/bingo_plates.pl to bin/bingo_print.pl
• Change of plate term to card
• Moved some code around (I had b0rken the PDF generation)
• Added an additional argument to print_pages so the number of cards can be between 1 and 3
• Added new commandline parameter to bin/bingo_print.pl, cards per page (see above)
• The generated PDF has been fine-tuned a bit, right justifying does not seem to work though?
• Pages now generated top-down instead of bottom up (prettier when you only require a single og two cards on a page)
• Added tests for the integritycheck method in Games::Bingo::Print::Card in a separate file in t/ called integrity_check.t I still hope I can phase out the integritycheck at some point
