Revision history for Perl extension NetAddr::IP
4.044 Wed May 18 14:47:34 PDT 2011
added missing support for ->compactref(\@list) which is described
in the documentation but not implemented.
Thanks to Rusty Bourland codebard@gmail.com for spotting this
and providing both a patch and test code
4.043 Wed Apr 6 11:31:19 PDT 2011
Update documentation on the use of "adding constants
to an IP address".
4.042 Tue Mar 22 15:26:02 PDT 2011
Update Lite.pm v1.27 to encompass treatment of /31 and /127
point-to-point networks as described in RFC 3021
NOTE: for /31's and /127's
this changes the behavior of the following methods:
first returns the "network" address
last returns the "broadcast" address
nth index 0 returns "network" addr instead of undef
nth index 1 returns "broadcast" addr instead of undef
num returns 2 instead of 0 (zero)
"old_nth" behavior is unchanged
Thanks to Todd Caine todd.caine@gmail.com for pointing this out.
4.041 Tue Mar 8 15:18:16 PST 2011
Updated Lite.pm v1.26, "sub num" to support usable IP ranges
greater than 2**32

Modify subs "new" and "new6" in Lite.pm to accomodate
Cisco mask syntax that uses space instead of "/" for a separator

4.037 Fri Nov 19 10:48:01 PST 2010
add :upper and :lower to Lite.pm v1.23

4.036 Tue Nov 16 16:28:37 PST 2010
In Util.pm v1.35, naip_gethostbyname modified to return undef
instead of 0 (zero) on failure
thanks to Terry Cassidy enaudishaylee@tc17.com for the bug report
In Util.pm v1.35, move sub's ipv6_n2d and ipv6_n2x to non-autosplit
portion of module to eliminate warnings during autosplit of "our"
variables
thanks to Nicholas Bamber <nicholas@periapt.co.uk>
Bug-Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=517361

thanks to Steve Huff (SHUFF) * shuff@cpan.org for
spotting that bug.
In Lite.pm v1.22, update t/v4-new.t for deprecated array syntax in

fix bug in Lite v1.21 where new6 improperly assigns the mask value
for and ipv4 address in 32 bit space instead of 128 bit space
Thanks to Mark Martinec and Steve Huff (SHUFF) * shuff@cpan.org
for spotting and replicating that bug
added new_cis and new_cis6 to Lite.pm v1.21 to accomodate
Cisco syntax that has IP and MASK seperated by a space.
Updated typo in documentation that left out example
print new6 stuff
4.034 Mon Oct 25 16:22:01 PDT 2010
Updated Lite::_xnew v1.20 to properly handle ipV6 notation of the form

if the OPTIONAL perl Socket6 module is available
Thanks to "Mabe, Dusty" <Dusty.Mabe@tekelec.com> for spotting
this and suggesting a fix.
4.028 Wed May 12 14:18:20 PDT 2010
In /Lite/Util/Util.xs v1.32,

time to do the testing for me on his s390 system.
4.021 Wed Dec 10 11:09:36 PST 2008

revised UtilPP v1.7 to work around perl 5.8.4
failures with certain @_ operations of goto &sub...

Returned object list can be split from bottom to top
or from top to bottom depending on which method is called
split, rsplit, splitref, rsplitref
Thanks to kashmish <kashmish@gmail.com> for the idea on
improving functionality of 'split'.
Thanks to Rob Riepel <riepel@networking.Stanford.EDU>

corrected missing Zeros subroutine
Zeros and Zero both will work
in Lite v1.12
added minus (-) overloading to allow the subtraction
of two NetAddr::IP objects to get the difference between
the object->{addr}'s as a numeric value

in Lite.pm v1.11, add test for characters not allowed by
rfc952 before the call to gethostbyname in sub new() for those
people that insist on using deprecated functionality :aton
and OS's that fail to notice calls to gethostbyname with
binary arguments.
4.013 Wed Oct 22 15:04:49 PDT 2008
In Lite.pm v1.10, add new no octal method for
improperly formatted ipV4 addresses
In Util.pm v1.22, eliminated dependence on PL_sawampersand

missed by some broken Socket implementations
i.e. 256.1.1.1 would fail to return undef
NOTE: Versions 4.008 and 4.009 had limited release to tester only
and were not uploaded to CPAN. All of the v4.008, 4.009
changes are incorporated in v4.010
4.009 Tue Sep 2 19:09:57 PDT 2008
In NetAddr::IP::Lite v1.07,
in the off chance that NetAddr::IP::Lite objects are created
and the caller later loads NetAddr::IP and expects to use
those objects, let the AUTOLOAD routine find and redirect
NetAddr::IP::Lite method and subroutine calls to NetAddr::IP.
updated Lite/t/v4-wnew.t so that non-existent
domains are "really" not there
4.008 Sat Jun 7 14:01:55 PDT 2008
inherit method "new_from_aton" from NetAddr::IP::Lite
add related documentation
Inherited methods from Lite.pm updated as follows:
comparisons of the form <, >, <=, >=
10.0.0.0/24 {operator} 10.0.0.0/16
return now return the comparison of the cidr value
when the address portion is equal.
NOTE: this comparison returns the comparison of the NUMERIC
value of the CIDR. This produces the counter intuitive result
that /24 > /16. There is logic to this, really! For proper
operation of commands like "Compact" and "Coalesce", lists of
netaddr objects must sort in ascending order. However, this
conflicts with the requirement for larger netblocks to sort
FIRST so as to include smaller ones. This logic extends to
any requirement for a sort of netaddr objects. It should be
further noted that the mixing of netaddr objects with varying
IP addresses and CIDR allocations can lead to unexpected
results since the comparisons done first on the IP portion
and then on the CIDR portion. The documentation has been
updated appropriately.
Thanks to Peter DeVries for spotting this discrepancy
