Changes for version 1.55 - 2014-05-04

  • If diagnostic is true for an object, it will now use Test::More::diag() under the test harness rather than printing to STDOUT.
  • The %z specifier will now parse UTC offsets with a colon like "+01:00". Requested by David Pyke Le Brun. RT #91458.
  • Made the regexes to parse day & months abbreviations & names a little more specific. As it stood, they tended to eat up nomre non-word characters than they should, so a pattern like '%a%m%d_%Y' break on a date like 'Fri0215_2013'. The day name would be parsed as 'Fri02' and the month would not be parsed at all. Reported by Maxwell Carey and ikegami. RT #93863 and #93865.
