Changes for version 0.03

  • Refactored make_problem into new_problem and added support for passing config + directive instead of just a severity. new_problem will discover the caller and get the severity from there
  • Added INFO and CRITICAL levels to possible severities
  • Added [Variable] checks with checks for matches-name, arrays-in-plural and hashes-in-singular
  • Improved processing of $line argument to make_problem function
  • Refactored some code to follow my own guidelines
  • Renamed 'disallow-fully-qualified-names' to 'no-fully-qualified-names' in [Subroutine] checks
  • Added 'no-calling-with-ampersand' check to [Subroutine] checks
  • Fixed doc typos in [Subroutine] for max-length and disallow-fully-qualified-name
  • Added check in [Whitespace] for whitespace after control-flow keyword in compound statements
  • Fixed debug typo when creating M::S object
  • Improved test coverage
  • Added missing 'use strict' in lib/Module/Checkstyle/Check.pm
  • Flipped changelog order
  • Added .svn to list of files/directories to ignore
  • Made configuration example follow perlstyle for subroutine names (reported by jonasbn)
  • Corrected t/00-base.t to handle ignore_common test correctly for non CVS checkouts of M::C
  • Fixed an issue where M::C tries to figure out if a file is parsable by looking at the shebang and it happens to be undefined which generates a warning.
  • Added missing dependency (Module::Pluggable) to Makefile.PL (reported by jonasbn)
