Revision history for Perl extension Date::PeriodParser.
0.14 Tue Jul 12 21:45:37 PDT 2011
- Still problems with some time zone or another in CEST timezone.
Added a little more debugging for this situation in timezone test.
- Spelling fix in Changes.
0.13 Mon Jul 11 12:45:25 PDT 2011
- Neglected to update changelog; no actual code changes in this release
0.12 Mon Jul 11 12:44:19 PDT 2011
- fixed timezone test to skip on Windows (tzset doesn't work there)
- dropped use vars in two tests that were throwing errors on 5.6
0.11 Fri Jul 8 22:48:22 PDT 2011
- Dropped the Devel::Hide requirement and test; we don't really need it.
0.10 ...
- Mis-incremented the version number, oops.
0.09 Thu Jul 7 21:48:39 MDT 2011
- 09vague.t bug finally found: caused by different starts of daylight
savings. Luckily (or unluckily) the date chosen crosses the DST
boundary in CEST (Central Europe Summer Time) but not in any
US time zone (code has previously been run in EDT/PDT and EST/PST).
A huge thank-you to the CPAN Testers who exposed this bug.
If the computed range around the time crosses the daylight savings
time boundary *in the current timezone*, we have to adjust the
resulting time either forward or back an hour to get a consistent
result in every timezone.
- Added a test to run the problematic vague test in a lot of different
timezones, both north and south of the equator, including some
of the odd ones, like Phoenix AZ, and Indiana.
- Added POSIX to the prereqs, since we need it for the timezone tests.
0.08 Thu Jul 7 00:58:24 PDT 2011
- Still some reports of vague.t failing by an hour; suspect remaining
DST-related errors. Added diags to show the timezone and whether the
machine running the tests thinks the time is daylight savings or not.
0.07 Mon Feb 25 14:29:33 PDT 2007
- Integrated most excellent patch from Doug Fischer, fixing a problem in
vague and recent times related to different interpretations of
epoch-seconds in different timezones (which is why I could never
duplicate the error ...)
0.06 Thu Sep 20 15:17:10 PDT 2007
- Weird '._*' files in distribution removed.
- Tabs removed. :/

- Several patches from Michael Hendrix incorporated (thanks Michael!)
- "this week"/"this month"/"this year" support
- "last week"/"last month"/"last year" support
- "month year" (e.g., "May 2005", "Dec 1990") support
- Conditional loading of Lingua::EN::Words2Nums
- "next week"/"next month"/"next year" support
- Added explicit dependencies and documented them
- Converted directory layout to standard layout (lib/Date/PeriodParser.pm
instead of PeriodParser.pm at the toplevel)

before tomorrow", etc.).
- support for "in the" (particularly, support for "in the
morning/afternoon" meaning "tomorrow morning/afternoon"
if it's not currently morning).
