Revision history for Perl module Proc::Daemon.
0.14 Fri Jun 03 2011
- The filename memory is now a part of the object (not a package variable
any more). This was a bug.
- Since <fork> is not performed on Windows OS as on Linux, I removed the
<eval> and <warn> from 0.13 and add an INFO to the documentation.
- Updated the documentation.
0.13 Wed Jun 01 2011
- Add ability to define the user identifier for the daemon if you want to
run it under other user then the parent (request from Holger Gläss).
- Add <eval> and <warn> for OS not supporting POSIX::setsid (e.g. Windows).
- Updated the documentation.
0.12 Tue Mai 24 2011
- Init() did not close all filehandles reliably in some cases. Thanks again
to Rob Brown for reporting.
- Text improvement in the documentation.
0.11 Mon Mai 23 2011
- Init() didn't close all filehandles reliably (see also bug report at
http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=72526). Thanks to Rob Brown
for reporting and offering a patch.
- Attributes 'dont_close_fh' AND 'dont_close_fd' added so we can define
file handles and descriptors that must be preserved from the parent into
the child (daemon).
- Updated the documentation.
- In some environment it is not allowed to open anonymous files. In this
case now a 'pid_file' must be defined. Thanks to Holger Gläss for
reporting.
0.10 Fri Apr 01 2011
- Improvement how Init() determines whether it was passed a blessed object

- Typo fix and text improvement in the documentation.
0.08 Sun Mar 13 2011

specified now. The default Mode values are the same as before.

0.06 Mon Jan 17 2011

behavior of process-group Signals.
0.05 Thu Okt 28 2010
- Fixed a problem when using the old method of calling Proc::Daemon::Init
without object (reported by Alex Samorukov). The parent process didn't
exit.
- Fixed a problem with Proc::ProcessTable 0.44: Under some conditions
'cmndline' retruns with space and/or other characters at the end.
- Update and small fixes in the documentation.
0.04 Sun Okt 24 2010
- Added functions: new(), adjust_settings(), fix_filename(), Status(),
Kill_Daemon(), get_pid() and get_pid_by_proc_table_attr().
- Init() now returns the PID of the daemon.
- Fork() now allways returns values like Perls built-in 'fork' does.
- Description was rewritten, extended and moved to the new Daemon.pod file.
- Additional test are done at installation.
- $SIG{'HUP'} was set to be valid only 'local' (bug report).
- POSIX::EAGAIN() was added to Fork() (bug report).

- Updated author contact information.
0.02 Sat Apr 17 1999
- init() function superceded by Init() function.
- All open files are closed during daemonization.
- A double fork is now down to avoid the potential of acquiring
a controlling terminal.
- Added Fork() and OpenMax() functions.
