Changes for version 4.31 - 2016-06-14

  • FEATURES
    • Add SameSite support to Cookie handling (thanks to pangyre)
  • INTERNALS
    • The MultipartBuffer package has been renamed to CGI::MultipartBuffer. This has been done in a way to ensure any $MultipartBuffer package variables are still set correctly in CGI::MultipartBuffer. if you are explicitly using MultipartBuffer in a form such as:
      • MultipartBuffer->new
      • your code will break. you should be calling:
        • CGI->new->new_MultipartBuffer( $boundary,$length );
      • to ensure the correctly package is called. if you are extending the MultipartBuffer package though use of ISA or base (or parent) then you will need to update your code to use CGI::MultipartBuffer
    • fake using strict and warnings to appease CPANTS Kwalitee
    • require File::Temp v0.17+ to get seekable file handles (GH #204)
