Changes for version 0.46 - 2005-03-09

  • Fixed documentation to reflect that the "class()" method in the Constructor class requires the package name as its first argument.
  • Modified "add_method()" so that methods can optionally be automatically created by "build()". Patch from Tim Canfield.
  • A call to "build()" now deletes unneeded references to objects, freeing up a bit of memory.
  • Changed minimum required Perl version to 5.6.1. Certain tests are disabled in this version, since the version of Carp included in Perl 5.6 lacks the @CARP_NOT feature. Everything should work fine, however. Suggested by Tim Canfield.
