Revision history for Perl extension User::Simple. 1.43 Tue Jan 20 13:37:10 CST 2009

• Dropped spurious requirement of YAML in the test suite (that was added as a debugging aid :-/ ) Thanks to Slaven Rezic for pointing it out...

1.42 Wed Dec 10 17:22:19 CST 2008

• Fixed a session hash predictability/clash vulnerability, reported by Eugene V. Lyubimkin via Damyan Ivanov. Thanks!

1.40 Fri Jun 27 11:35:01 CDT 2008

• Bah... Why jump through that many hoops? Moving away from ExtUtils::MakeMaker to Module::Build

1.38 Wed Jun 25 17:30:31 CDT 2008

• "The Kwalitee release"
• Added Test::Pod test
• Regenerated META.yml to be valid. Where did I take mine from?!
• Completed license, author license, both in META.yml and in LICENSE
• But still, no real, substantive changes!

1.37 Mon Jun 23 10:41:00 CDT 2008

• Fixed remaining file locking problem which caused the tests to fail in *BSD systems. Thanks to Slaven Rezic and CPANTS for helping me spot and fix the bug!

1.36 Sun Jun 15 23:56:56 CDT 2008

• Umh... since the very early revisions (0.9?), I was only explicitly skipping 14 tests if DBD::XBase is not installed. Updating it to 37. Grr.
• Changed the tests to run under SQLite3 instead of DBD::XBase
  • A bit more reliable, it seems

1.35

• Gah... Using DBD::XBase in the tests lets many subtle problems slip by... For example, 1.3 was released with a broken User::Admin::new_user :-/

1.3 Thu Oct 6 13:21:56 CDT 2005

• By popular demand, User::Simple (not necessarily from within ::Admin) can modify the user data - Not only that, but also a subtle distinction was added: fields called beginning with adm_ are not modifiable by it.

1.23 Sun Oct 2 11:45:35 CDT 2005

• Bugfix: Some DBDs return uppercase fields, some lowercase... Try to handle them all correctly (or at least, not as incorrectly :) )

1.22 Mon Sep 26 19:47:12 2005

• Bugfix: Last remanent of old name/level structure removed. Thanks, Alex Juarez!
• Minimum required Perl version reduced to 5.8 (was 5.8.7)

1.2 Fri Sep 23 13:43:00 2005

• API CHANGE - API CHANGE - API CHANGE: Some changes in User::Admin::Simple (in user creation, database structure creation)
• Added generic (AUTOLOADed) methods to both User::Simple and User::Simple::Admin to deal with unknown attributes in the table
• Finally (completely) removed the deprecated is_admin infrastructure
• Name and level are not explicitly implemented from within the class, they become (if required by the user) AUTOLOADed.
• Added examples/user-simple-admin, a command-line interface for managing User::Simple tables

1.1 Thu Sep 08 14:40:05 2005

• Never really released, but PAUSE won't allow me to re-use this version number... Sorry

1.0 Sun Aug 21 23:06:08 2005

• Now correctly works with any kind of DBD backend
• Added a complete test suite, which surprisingly worked!

0.9 Sat Jul 30 10:45:15 2005

• Added Date::Calc and Digest::MD5 as prerequisite modules
• Added a more granular 'level' for the users instead of the all-or-nothing is_admin infrastructure
• Modified the is_admin infrastructure so old code works seamlessly with the new version (although sends out some warnings, as is_admin is officially deprecated)
• Added/clarified some documentation

0.8 Wed Jun 15 10:52:29 2005

• original version; created by h2xs 1.23 with options

  -X User::Simple
