[Changes for 0.79 - 2010-03-02]

• Locale::Maketext::Lexicon::Tie
  • Removed a deprecated use of "defined %" for Perl 5.11+

[Changes for 0.78 - 2010-02-23]

• Locale::Maketext::Lexicon
  • Removed a deprecated use of "defined %" for Perl 5.11+

[Changes for 0.77 - 2008-12-29]

• Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::FormFu
  • Rewrote the FormFu plugin completely to use the YAML.pm parser. Previously, this plugin was completely broken.
  • Resolves bugs:
    • http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=42000 # Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::FormFu broken
    • http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39292 # Parsing formfu config
• Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::YAML
  • Improved the accuracy of the line numbers.
  • Added documentation and tests for using folded and block scalars.
• Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::PPI
  • Added a PPI based Perl plugin - more accurate than the Perl plugin, but much slower.
  • Not enabled by default
  • moved the Perl extraction tests into t/51-perlextract.t
  • Resolves bug: http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=14701 # xgettext doesn't handle interpolating functions

Also, corrected the POD to use the correct names for the plugins.

[Changes for 0.76 - 2008-12-14]

• Locale::Maketext::Extract / Locale::Maketext::Lexicon::Gettext
  • Roundtripping of fuzzy comments now works. If a translation is marked by the translator as fuzzy, then it should remain so when re-extracted
  • Added tests for roundtripping of fuzzy, and for format markers
• Locale::Maketext::Lexicon
  • Fixed bug http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=14999 # relative paths to lang files fail
  • added tests to prove it
• Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::TT2
  • changed the line string to contain only the start line, and not the range as this was not consistent with the gettext spec

[Changes for 0.75 - 2008-11-24]

• Locale::Maketext::Extract / Locale::Maketext::Extract::Run Changed the order of extraction to:
  • extract all strings
  • then read, compile and write each PO file Speeds the extraction process up by a factor of the number of languages used. $Ext->read_po now resets the compiled entries, so that a fresh po file can be written.

Also tidied up the verbose messages
Bumped both to 0.33

• Locale::Maketext::Extract::Run / xgettext.pl Added the -W | --wrap option, which forces the file location comments to be on separate lines, as per POEdit

  The output order of the PO file has changed to match gettext producers, so the arguments now appear before the file locations.

• t/5-extract_strings.tt Fixed a bad SKIP plan

[Changes for 0.74 - 2008-11-22]

Contributed by: Clinton Gormley (DRTECH)

• Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::TT2
  • fixed bug where extracted strings still had escaped quotes and backslashes

[Changes for 0.70 - 2008-10-04]

Contributed by: Clinton Gormley (DRTECH)

• Refactored Locale::Maketext::Extract
  • Each format is handled by a different plugin
  • Each format recognises certain default file types

[Changes for 0.67 - 2008-08-04]

[Changes for 0.66 - 2008-02-12]

• Tidied up code style, documentation, copyright years, etc.

[Changes for 0.64 - 2007-05-28]

• Locale::Maketext::Extract: Extraction wasn't able to deal with escaped quotes within single- and double-quoted strings. (Bump version to 0.22.) Contributed by: Matthew O'Connor

[Changes for 0.63 - 2007-02-07]

• Locale::Maketext::Lexicon used to generated mysteriouse error "next at ..." instead of skipping the locale, when the requested .po file does not exist. Contributed by: Ruslan U. Zakirov

[Changes for 0.62 - 2006-06-15]

• For the longest time, direct import of Locale::Maketext::Lexicon from within localization classes (such as MyApp::I18N::zh_tw) was untested and broken. It now works the way described in the SYNOPSIS section of the Locale::Maketext::Lexicon documentation. Contributed by: Yann Kerherve

[Changes for 0.61 - 2006-04-27]

• LICENSING CHANGE: This compilation and all individual files in it are now under the permissive "MIT" license. See the COPYRIGHT section in README for the new terms.
• Repair Perl 5.005 compatibility in the build system. Reported By: Rong-En Fan

[Changes for 0.60 - 2006-04-13]

• Locale::Maketext::Extract: Bump version to 0.20. No functionality changes to Locale::Maketext::Lexicon; all changes in this release are to Locale::Maketext::Extract.
• The ->compile call now moves ->entries into ->compiled_entries, instead of mutating them in-place. This allows repeated cycles of ->extract/->compile calls before the final ->write_po.
• Consequently, in the ->read_po/->write_po API, the "$verbatim" flag is now ignored.
• ->read_po no longer fails on empty PO files.
• The return values of ->msgids/->msgstr are now always in gettext style and never in maketext style.
• In xgettext.pl, the -u flag (specifies the style of the source programs as gettext instead of the default maketext) now has nothing to do with output escaping. This closes another long-standing bug of "vanishing backslashes" when the same .po file is written once with -u and once without.
• The --unescaped flag to "xgettext.pl" is deprecated and renamed to the more appropriate "--use-gettext-style".
• Locale::Maketext::Extract::Run now accepts single-letter directory names instead of erroneously stripping them out.

[Changes for 0.58 - 2006-04-13]

• Locale::Maketext::Extract: Direct calls to ->write_po now escapes the msg strings by default (reverting to <=0.54 behaviour), but calls via xgettext.pl (and ::Extract::Run) now always specify the "verbatim" flag to ->write_po, so users of extraction tools are still free from double escaping. Requested by: Thierry Vignaud
• Locale::Maketext::Extract: Allow the "# loc" marker at the end of a statement: say "foo"; # loc previously it only worked on closing brackets and commas.
• Locale::Maketext::Lexicon: The "gettext" style no longer parses "%0" as a variable. Also allows spaces between function arguments: %quant(%1, %2)

[Changes for 0.57 - 2006-04-11]

• Locale::Maketext::Locale: The "_style => 'gettext'" option was broken for function forms such as "%quant(%1)", as well as adjacent variables such as "%1%2%3".

[Changes for 0.56 - 2006-04-02]

• Locale::Maketext::Lexicon: Specifying the new "_auto => 1" option now turns on _AUTO fallback handling for all language handles. Requested by: Jesse Vincent
• Locale::Maketext::Lexicon: Specifying the new "_style => 'gettext'" option makes "%1" and "%quant(%1)" to be used for interpolation, instead of "[_1]" and "[quant,_1]".

[Changes for 0.55 - 2006-03-22]

• Locale::Maketext::Extract: Fix a long-standing bug that caused double-escaping of backslashes and double quotes in loc strings. Contributed by: Brian Cassidy

[Changes for 0.54 - 2006-03-14]

• When importing into an already defined lexicon and merging with its entries, we need to clear the Locale::Maketext cache, otherwise _AUTO entries generated by the old lexicon will linger around. Contributed by: Helmut Lichtenberg

Patches from Mikael Sennerholm:

• Skip .svn directories in Locale::Maketext::Extract::Run.

[Changes for 0.49 - 2005-04-13]

• Stephen Quinney notes that we are too eager to die on nonexisting files passed in as part of a lexicon_get_() source. We now silently ignore nonexistant files, only reporting error when it exists but cannot be read or parsed.

[Changes for 0.48 - 2005-03-12]

Patches from Thierry Vignaud:

• In Gettext.pm, do not silently skip last entry of a catalog.
