Changes for version 1.17_03

  • Adding dependency on File::Which to deal with problems on systems that lack zip and unzip programs. This really should be a build-time dependency only, but ExtUtils::MakeMaker lacks that capability.
  • Builds and tests cleanly on Win32 now.

Changes for version 1.17_02

  • Renamed the test scripts to the more conventional 01_name.t style
  • Upgraded all test scripts from Test.pm to Test::More (removing Test.pm dependency)
  • Various other miscellaneous cleanups of the test scripts
  • Removed MANIFEST and pod.t from repository (will be auto-generated)
  • Some cleaning up of the POD documentation for readability
  • Added SUPPORT section to docs
  • Merged external TODO file into the POD as a more-common TO DO section
  • Added a BUGS section to the docs

Changes for version 1.17_01

  • Imported Archive::Zip into http://svn.phase-n.com/svn/cpan/ orphanage. If you have a CPAN login and have released a module, ask ADAMK about an account and you can repair your bug directly in the repository.
  • Removed the revision comments from the old CVS repository
  • DOS DateTime Format doesn't support dates before 1980 and goes crazy when decoding back to unix time. If we don't get passed a time at all (0 or undef) we now throw an error.
  • DOS DateTime Format doesn't support dates before 1980, so if we find any we warn and use Jan 1 12:01pm 1980 if we encounter any
  • Win32 doesn't support directory modification times. Tentatively use the current time as the mod-time to prevent sending null times to the unix2dos converter (and the resulting error)
  • Reformat the expected empty zip warning in the output to add a note that the warning is entirely normal. Would be nice if some time later we can suppress it altogether, but I don't have the cross-platform STDERR-fu without adding a dependency to IPC::Run3 (which would be bad).
  • Adding a proper $VERSION to all classes, and synchronising them to the same value.
  • Adding a BEGIN block around the require 5.003_96 so it works at compile-time instead of post-compile.
  • Moved crc32 to bin/crc32 in line with package layout conventions
