Revision history for Net::SFTP

0.10 2005.10.08

• Add example for ssh_args option (rt.cpan.org #5899, Mark Fuller).
• Fix from Jim Herring: don't treat legal "0" handle from server as error

  (rt.cpan.org #14405).

• Suppress shell in SSH2 invocation (if Net::SSH::Perl 1.29+ available) (Sean McMillan).

0.09 2005.01.18

• New co-maintainer, David Robins (DBROBINS).
• Adds a 'warn' argument to the constructor to allow supression or redirection of warnings.
• Allows the 'ssh_args' constructor argument to be either a hash ref or an array ref.
• Adds a 'status' method which returns the last SSH2_FX_* status value, or (status value, text) in list context (only useful after last failure).
• Adds brief summary comments to some methods.
• Returns failure if the remote open fails for 'get' (previous code ignored it); also moves the remote open before the local open so that we don't create empty local files if the remote file can't be opened.
• Changes 'ls' to return an array reference in scalar context.
• Documents: the fact that we die on protocol/local errors; the new option and method; changes to 'get'/'put' (formerly 'put' didn't return anything useful, and 'get's actual return values are the same, just better documented).
• Adds a comprehensive remote test, but to use it one has to manually go in and configure a server a certain way, so it defaults to skipping everything; I'm including it as a base since there are currently no remote tests at all.

0.08 2003.12.12

• Net::SFTP::Buffer was passing an invalid option when loading Net::SSH::Perl::Buffer.
• Add SUPPORT section to the docs.

0.07 2003.11.14

• Require Net::SSH::Perl 1.24, which also includes circular reference fixes.

0.06 2003.11.14

• New maintainer, Dave Rolsky.
• Fixed a circular reference which caused connections to be held open indefinitely in a persistent environment like mod_perl. This uses weak references, so Perl 5.6.0+ is now required. This work was funded by Kineticode, Inc.
• Added a LICENSE file.

0.05 2001.05.24

• Added help ('h' or '?') command to psftp. Moved all shell functionality into Net::SFTP::Shell.
• Net::SFTP::Util needed to 'use Exporter'.

0.04 2001.05.16

• Fixed bug in put method when running fsetstat command; it was trying to set the UID/GID on the remote file, which was giving a permission denied message. Should not try to set UID/GID, so had to adjust flags.
• Added eg/psftp, a working SFTP shell.
• Moved READ and WRITE commands into their own methods (do_read and do_write, respectively).
• Changed semantics of get method. Returning the contents of the remote file is no longer connected to whether a local file is passed as an argument; it is instead based on the calling context of 'get'. Updated docs to reflect this.

0.03 2001.05.15

• Documentation for all extra classes: Attributes, Buffer, Constants, and Util.
• Documentation for command methods in Net::SFTP.
• Added binmode when reading/writing from local files.
• Added methods for all remaining commands in SFTP protocol version 3 (eg. remove, rmdir, mkdir, realpath, etc.).
• Added callbacks to get and put, eg. for status messages, etc.
• Fixed typo in Net::SFTP::Buffer::get_int64 that was breaking reading 64-bit ints.

0.02 2001.05.14

• Fixed bug with SSH2 server not sending one message per packet, ie. multiple packets have to be retrieved to make up one SFTP message. This would show up as a "Message length too long" error. Thanks to Matt Good for the spot.
• Fixed bug with OpenSSH and SSH2 SFTP servers where after a certain amount of bytes the connection would hang. This was a bug in Net::SSH::Perl (channel window sizes) that is fixed in version 1.13.
