ReleaseNotes - These are the Release Notes for 1.16_15
THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT SNAPSHOT! (Sorry about the shouting, but it may have bugs or be incomplete)
I have done a lot of refactoring and wrote loads of new code.
smokeperl.pl is the new way to smoke. It is a wrapper script around good ol' mktest.pl and mkovz.pl
It also uses the backends to synctree.pl and mailrpt.pl
configsmoke.pl helps you create a configuration for perlsmoke.pl. This configuration is stored in a separate file, so that it is possible to have different configurations.
One can think of different perl versions or different compiler versions.
New ways to sync the source-tree (see synctree.pl and Test::Smoke::Syncer).
Distribution now contains Mail::Sendmail (esp. for Win32)
-Uuseperlio will now only do one (1) testrun and it's back in smoke.cfg
An implementation of Nick Clark's 'Hardlink Forest', with the extra --forest <directory> option to mktest.pl. This will change the way to make distclean to another (hopefully faster).
The subject of the message containing the report has changed:
Smoke [perlversion] <patch> <summary> <os> - <osvers> (<arch>/<cpus>)
If your platform supports UTF-8 locales you will now be able to do an extra run of make test with $ENV{LC_ALL} set to such a locale.
I don't know if all of this will make it into 1.17...
