Changes for version 0.05

  • Added the Module::Build->subclass() method, which makes it easier to make quick-and-dirty subclasses of Module::Build.
  • Reorganized the docs a bit.
  • Added the 'testdb' action, and the 'debugger=1' argument to the 'test' action, both of which run tests under the perl debugger. (idea: Dave Rolsky)
  • Added prerequisite checking (Dave Rolsky)
  • XXX Needs to write _build/prereq
    • Fixed an unlikely-to-occur bug with misquoted strings in the 'Build' script (spot: Dave Rolsky)
    • We're more careful about shush-ing warnings that ExtUtils::Manifest might emit (Dave Rolsky)
    • The 'help' action now auto-generates the list of actions (Dave Rolsky)
    • Added the 'distcheck', 'skipcheck', 'distclean', 'distdir', and 'disttest' actions (Dave Rolsky)
    • We're a little more aggressive about cleaning up temporary files - we'll try to clean them up even when we don't have write permission on them. This isn't as dastardly as it sounds; if we /really/ don't have permission, we won't be able to remove them no matter how hard we try.
