Changes for version 0.36 - 2002-11-05

  • -Patch for documentation typo for Killfam.pm from Mike Castle <dalgoda@ix.netcom.com>. Patch for AIX v4.2 from James FitzGibbon <james@ehlo.com> to take advantage of newer OS API; this also required addition of a new return type (long-long, specified as "j") to ProcessTable.xs. Patch to add new field "numthr" for number of threads for Solaris from Joseph Cavanaugh <Joseph.Cavanaugh@FMR.COM>. Patch for linux compiler warnings from Marcus Crafter <crafterm@osa.de>. Changed HPUX "cmd" field to "cmndline" for consistency with other ports at the suggestion of Craig Cook <cncook@gene.COM>. Windows port via Cygwin from J Robert Ray <jrray@jrray.org>. Patch for multithread support under Solaris from Kong Li <Kong.Li@netiq.com>. Patch for File::Find::prune tty mapping buglet from <jon@jjb.demon.co.uk>. Changed behavior of store_ttydev() in ProcessTable.xs to insert an empty string for processes that don't have a tty, instead of having it return undef. I *think* this will fix a problem reported on HPUX by H.Merijn Brand <h.m.brand@hccnet.nl>. Changed ttynums to be treated as unsigned to fix occasional negative ttynum bug reported by Daniel Berger <djberge@qwest.com>.
