• Bug fixes for global variables of cache compartments and persistent code.

0.09 16 Jan 2004

• Fixed bug with select() overwrited, for slection of handlers from a package (forgot to keep the caller base).
• Added Safe::World::Hole, to keep compatiblity, since Safe::World/0.09 breaks *INC behavior for Safe::World.
• Removed dependency of Safe::Hole
• Added wrapper for UNIVERSAL::isa() to handle rigth the package names.

0.08 29 Dec 2003

• Added method reset_internals().
• Added method stdout_buffer_data().
• Fixed %INC access for link_workd() and unlink_world().
• Added unshare_vars() call on DESTROY().
• Added method use_shared().
• Fixed bug on reuse of cached package and compiled references to *_, specialy @.
• Fixed behavior of $^R, that is a global variable that can't be shared, since doesn't exists at $main::^R, and have his SCALAR reference change during the RE. ($^R is used by REGEXP, see perlvar POD).
• Added method evalno_warn(), to run codes and do not have any alert, error, die, or warn.
• Fixed bug with select(), that happens due the different behaviors of select() with STDOUT inside compartments on Perl-5.6x and Perl-5.8x. (Bug found with mod_perl2).

0.07 21 Dec 2003

• Added cache of scopes at Safe::World::Scope.
• Blocked access to the symbols tables through Safe::World::Scope objects.
• Fixed bug on unlink_world(), where the call to unlink_package() was wrong.
• Removed select() of previous output on print_stderr(), due problems when called from internal erros, like use on inexistent modules. But the select() of previous output on print_stdout() is kept to avoid self loops!

0.06 19 Dec 2003

• Added method op_deny, op_deny_only, op_permit, op_permit_only.
• Fixed minor bug on eval(), when called from inside.
• Fixed DESTROY for HOOK of Safe::World::Scope.

• Fixed autohead for print_header().

0.05 16 Dec 2003

• Added method op_deny, op_deny_only, op_permit, op_permit_only.
• Added methods reset_output(), unlink_all_worlds().
• Fixed bug on destroy.
• Fixed minor bug on eval(), when called from inside.
• New module Safe::World::Scope, for objects that works inside the World without share packages.
• Added dependece to Safe::Hole/0.08, due Safe::World::Scope.
• All the Safe::World* packages reviseds to use Safe::World::Scope access.

0.04 09 Dec 2003

• New test with IO::Socket to test select() inside the compartment. (Due old problems in other works with Safe and mod_perl, just to ensure that it's ok in Safe::World).
• Fixed warnings for constant redefinition on Perl-5.8.x when cleanning the compartment.
• Added method redirect_stdout() and restore_stdout().
• Fixed bug for internal call of die(). Now die() doesn't exit from the World, only from it's own eval(). What enables other eval() calls to the World.
• Fixed bug with ignored warnings, like syntax error.
• Added method eval_args() and eval_pack_args().

0.03 30 Nov 2003

• No more dependence of Safe. Own implementation of Safe at Safe::World::Compartment, with simpler code and less sub call and variables criations for reval().
• use of select_static on initialization to avoid new selections.

• Added method reset().
• Added methods close_tiestdout() and close_tiestderr().
