1Revision history for the Perl extension Win32.\r
2\r
30.39 [2009-01-19]\r
4 - Add support for Windows 2008 Server and Windows 7 in\r
5 Win32::GetOSName() and in the documentation for\r
6 Win32::GetOSVersion().\r
7 - Make Win32::GetOSName() implementation testable.\r
8 - Document that the OSName for Win32s is actually "WinWin32s".\r
9\r
100.38 [2008-06-27]\r
11 - Fix Cygwin releated problems in t/GetCurrentThreadId.t\r
12 (Jerry D. Hedden).\r
13\r
140.37 [2008-06-26]\r
15 - Add Win32::GetCurrentProcessId() function\r
16\r
170.36 [2008-04-17]\r
18 - Add typecasts for Win64 compilation\r
19\r
200.35 [2008-03-31]\r
21 Integrate changes from bleadperl:\r
22 - Silence Borland compiler warning (Steve Hay)\r
23 - Fix memory leak in Win32::GetOSVersion (Vincent Pit)\r
24 - Test Win32::GetCurrentThreadId on cygwin (Reini Urban, Steve Hay)\r
25\r
260.34 [2007-11-21]\r
27 - Document "WinVista" return value for Win32::GetOSName()\r
28 (Steve Hay).\r
29\r
300.33 [2007-11-12]\r
31 - Update version to 0.33 for Perl 5.10 release\r
32 - Add $^O test in Makefile.PL for CPAN Testers\r
33 - Use Win32::GetLastError() instead of $^E in t/Names.t for\r
34 cygwin compatibility (Jerry D. Hedden).\r
35\r
360.32 [2007-09-20]\r
37 - Additional #define's for older versions of VC++ (Dmitry Karasik).\r
38 - Win32::DomainName() doesn't return anything when the Workstation\r
39 service isn't running. Set $^E and adapt t/Names.t accordingly\r
40 (Steve Hay & Jerry D. Hedden).\r
41 - Fix t/Names.t to allow Win32::GetOSName() to return an empty\r
42 description as the 2nd return value (e.g. Vista without SP).\r
43 - Fix t/GetFileVersion.t for Perl 5.10\r
44\r
450.31 [2007-09-10]\r
46 - Apply Cygwin fixes from bleadperl (from Jerry D. Hedden).\r
47 - Make sure Win32::GetLongPathName() always returns drive\r
48 letters in uppercase (Jerry D. Hedden).\r
49 - Use uppercase environment variable names in t/Unicode.t\r
50 because the MSWin32 doesn't care, and Cygwin only works\r
51 with the uppercased version.\r
52 - new t/Names.t test (from Sébastien Aperghis-Tramoni)\r
53\r
540.30 [2007-06-25]\r
55 - Fixed t/Unicode.t test for Cygwin (with help from Jerry D. Hedden).\r
56 - Fixed and documented Win32::GetShortPathName() to return undef\r
57 when the pathname doesn't exist (thanks to Steve Hay).\r
58 - Added t/GetShortPathName.t\r
59\r
600.29 [2007-05-17]\r
61 - Fixed to compile with Borland BCC (thanks to Steve Hay).\r
62\r
630.28_01 [2007-05-16]\r
64 - Increase version number as 0.28 was already used by an ActivePerl\r
65 release (for essentially 0.27 plus the Win32::IsAdminUser() change).\r
66\r
67 - Add MODULE and PROTOTYPES directives to silence warnings from\r
68 newer versions of xsubpp.\r
69\r
70 - Use the Cygwin codepath in Win32::GetFullPathName() when\r
71 PERL_IMPLICIT_SYS is not defined, because the other code\r
72 relies on the virtualization code in win32/vdir.h.\r
73\r
740.27_02 [2007-05-15]\r
75 - We need Windows 2000 or later for the Unicode support because\r
76 WC_NO_BEST_FIT_CHARS is not supported on Windows NT.\r
77\r
78 - Fix Win32::GetFullPathName() on Windows NT to return an\r
79 empty file part if the original argument ends with a slash.\r
80\r
810.27_01 [2007-04-18]\r
82 - Update Win32::IsAdminUser() to use the IsUserAnAdmin() function\r
83 in shell32.dll when available. On Windows Vista this will only\r
84 return true if the process is running with elevated privileges\r
85 and not just when the owner of the process is a member of the\r
86 "Administrators" group.\r
87\r
88 - Win32::ExpandEnvironmentStrings() may return a Unicode string\r
89 (a string containing characters outside the system codepage)\r
90\r
91 - new Win32::GetANSIPathName() function returns a pathname in\r
92 a form containing only characters from the system codepage\r
93\r
94 - Win32::GetCwd() will return an ANSI version of the directory\r
95 name if the long name contains characters outside the system\r
96 codepage.\r
97\r
98 - Win32::GetFolderPath() will return an ANSI pathname. Call\r
99 Win32::GetLongPathName() to get the canonical Unicode\r
100 representation.\r
101\r
102 - Win32::GetFullPathName() will return an ANSI pathname. Call\r
103 Win32::GetLongPathName() to get the canonical Unicode\r
104 representation.\r
105\r
106 - Win32::GetLongPathName() may return a Unicode path name.\r
107 Call Win32::GetANSIPathName() to get a representation using\r
108 only characters from the system codepage.\r
109\r
110 - Win32::LoginName() may return a Unicode string.\r
111\r
112 - new Win32::OutputDebugString() function sends a string to\r
113 the debugger.\r
114\r
115 - new Win32::GetCurrentThreadId() function returns the thread\r
116 id (to complement the process id in $$).\r
117\r
118 - new Win32::CreateDirectory() creates a new directory. The\r
119 name of the directory may contain Unicode characters outside\r
120 the system codepage.\r
121\r
122 - new Win32::CreateFile() creates a new file. The name of the\r
123 file may contain Unicode characters outside the system codepage.\r
124\r
125\r
1260.27 [2007-03-07]\r
127 - Extracted from the libwin32 distribution to simplify maintenance\r
128 because Win32 is a dual-life core module since 5.8.4.\r
129\r
130 - Win32.pm and Win32.xs updated to version in bleadperl.\r
131 This includes all the Win32::* function from win32/win32.c\r
132 in core Perl, except for Win32::SetChildShowWindows().\r
133\r
134 - Install into 'perl' directory instead of 'site' for Perl 5.8.4\r
135 and later.\r
136\r
137 - Add some simple tests.\r
