* Removed prototypes
* Added a SPECIFICATION section to the pod
* Safe caching of eol, and a warning in the docs
* Rewrote t/20_file.t do do actual file IO instead of IO_Scalar fake
* Small optimization for parse (juerd)
* Added make target test_speed
* Merged the items from CAVEAT to SPECIFICATION
* Updated the TODO and Release Plan sections
* Speed up internals by using references instead of copies (juerd)
* Reworked error_input, which also had an undetected internal error
* Added IO tests for lexical IO handles and perlio IO to/from scalars
2007-06-03 0.28 - H.Merijn Brand <h.m.brand@xs4all.nl>
* IMPORTANT CHANGE: new () returns undef if it gets unsupported
attributes. Until now, new ({ esc_char => "\\" }) was just
silently ignored. Rejecting it and failing is better than
continuing with false assumptions.
* Added allow_loose_quotes (see doc)
* Added t/65_allow.t
* Added allow_loose_escapes (see doc) RT 15076
* More code cleanup in XS
* Added allow_whitespace (see doc)
2007-05-31 0.27 - H.Merijn Brand <h.m.brand@xs4all.nl>
* checked with perlcritic (still works under 5.00504)
so 3-arg open cannot be used (except in the docs)
* 3-arg open in docs too
* Added a lot to the TODO list
* Some more info on using escape character (jZed)
* Mention Text::CSV_PP in README
* Added t/45_eol.t, eol tests
* Added a section about embedded newlines in the pod
* Allow \r as eol ($/) for parsing
* More docs for eol
* More eol = \r fixes, tfrayner's test case added to t/45_eol.t
2007-05-15 0.26 - H.Merijn Brand <h.m.brand@xs4all.nl>
* Add $csv->allow_undef (1) suggestion in TODO
Still have to find the best spot to document
the difference between empty string and undef
* Spell-checked the pod and fixed some typo's
* Added t/70_rt.t
- Regression for RT 24386: \t doesn't work (WFM)
- Regression and fix for RT 21530: getline () return at eof
This one still passes under perl 5.00504
- Regression for RT 18703: Fails to use quote_char of '~'
* Added t/55_combi.t for most combinations of always_quote,
sep_char, quote_char, and escape_char
* Added docs about sep_char not allowed to be either quote_char
or escape_char
* Both combine () and parse () now return FALSE id sep_char is
equal to either quote_char or escape_char. Done in XS, as it
was a slowdown of 10% when done in perl.
2007-05-07 0.25 - H.Merijn Brand <h.m.brand@xs4all.nl>
* Merijn got the maintainership
- code reformat and code cleanup
- renamed internal (Encode, Decode) to (Combine, Parse) to
prevent misinterpretation with upcoming Unicode changes
and possible name clashes
- added pod check (and fixed pod)
- added pod coverage and small additions to the pod.
More to do in this area
- renamed test to fixate the sequence
- Added t/50_utf8.t
- tests now use Test::More
. Makefile.PL requires Test::More
- checked proclaimed version compatibility
. 5.9.x-64int works @31159
. 5.8.x-64int-dor works @31162
. 5.8.0-dor works
. 5.6.2 works

. 5.004.05 fails
- 5.005 is now prerequisite
- Added missing info in docs for new ()
- Added meta_info () method and docs
- Added keep_meta_info in new ()
- Added t/15_flags.t
- Added test_cover make target
- Added test for error_input ()
- Added tests for fields () and meta_info () before parse ()
- Added tests for ->types () as method
- Added tests for deleting types (coverage now over 99%)
- Added is_quoted (), is_binary () and tests
- Added COPYRIGHT section to pod
- Added the parse example from the pod to test.pl
- Added accessor methods for internals: quote_char () et all

- Changed the tests to use the accessors instead of the hash keys
except for the ->{types} and ->{_types}

Matthew Graham <MGraham@pacificaccess.com.au>
2000-12-22 Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de> (0.22)
* CSV_XS.xs: Added the handling of escape characters
outside of quotes. Kirill Paliy <kpaliy@aaanet.ru>
2000-08-18 Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de> (0.21)
* CSV_XS.pm (parse): Minor bugfix in the parse method.

* CSV_XS.xs: Fixed a bug in the decoder where escapeChar wasn't
handled right. Pavel Kotala <pkotala@logis.cz>
1999-05-01 Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de> (0.19)
* CSV_XS.xs: Setting escape_char => undef should now work.
Requested by Syed Muhammad Nayeem <smnayeem@dhaka.agni.com>
1999-04-05 Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de> (0.18)
* CSV_XS.pm: Portability fixes (sv_undef => PL_sv_undef
and the like.
1999-03-04 Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de> (0.17)
* CSV_XS.pm: Added always_quote attribute.
(Ken Williams <kwilliam@DigitalRiver.com>)
* The types method is now implemented in Perl.
1999-02-11 Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de> (0.16)
* CSV_XS.pm: PV, IV and NV are no longer exportable, so that I
need not inherit from Exporter any longer. (This caused trying
to autoload DESTROY without any reason. Seems to me to be a
serious performance penalty.)
* CSV_XS.pm: Being a little bit less strict now: If quoteChar and
escapeChar are different, then the quote char may be part of
the field. (Not at the fields start, of course.)
1998-08-21 Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de> (0.15)
* CSV_XS.pm: Moved print() and getline() to XS.
1998-08-13 Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de> (0.14)

* CSV_XS.xs (Encode): Strings qre quoted only if required.
* CSV_XS.xs: Added support for $csv->{types}.
1998-06-11 Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de> (0.12)
* CSV_XS.xs (Encode): Integers and Reals are no longer quoted.
* Added $csv->{types}.
1998-05-12 Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de> (0.11)

* Added $csv->{quote_char} = undef
1998-05-05 Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de> (0.10)
