Revision history for Perl extension JavaScript::SpiderMonkey.

0.20 (29/05/2010)

(tb) Applied Ben Bullock's patch which fixes the following:

1. JS_Init is deprecated and to be replaced by JS_NewRuntime (RT #48852)
2. line number bug in error messages (RT #57572)
3. Newline bug in error messages (RT #57617)
4. Null pointer bug in error messages.
5. spelling mistakes and grammatical errors in documentation and which adds Makefile.PL options to specify the location of the SpiderMonkey libraries. It also removes an unncessary dependency on Log::Log4Perl which is only used in debug mode.

0.12 (12/03/2005)

(ms) Makefile.PL prerequisite changed from undef to '0'. (ms) Thomas Busch added a check to Makefile.PL to find an already

installed JS lib.

0.11 (08/22/2004)

• (ms) Added Log::Log4perl dependency in Makefile.PL as suggested

  by an anonymous posting on rt.cpan.org.

• (ms) Added #define for MSC compiler as suggested in

  https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=6984

• (ms) Roger Crew <crew@cs.stanford.edu> provided patches for

  a clean Win32 compile plus README text on installing the dll/so.

0.10 06/20/2004

• Nikita Savin <nikita@savin.go2serve.net> provided a patch to set $@ instead of printing to STDERR in case of a JS error.
• Added patch by Chris Blaise <cblaise@esoft.com>:
  • Different objects can have the same named function. If no object is specified on function_set, it's global.
• Log4perl in for debugging
• Chris Blaise submitted a patch to have a perl callback return an object to JS. Applied with modifications, longer term we need a solution on how the perl callback tells the JS wrapper what's coming back: A JS string, an object or an integer.
