The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 1.7 - 2020-02-29

  • new function: GetFileList.
  • experimental perlmulticore support (see manpage).
  • Initialize is now a NOP and CleanUp automatically initializes again.
  • updated example decoder and documentation a bit.
  • include ecb.h to deal with compiler builtins and endianness.
  • some further ยต-optimisations in hot code, especially for yEnc.
  • replace crc32 function by slice-by-16 version by Stephan Brumme, which should speed up yEnc en-/decoding.
  • yEnc: do not calculate two crcs per part, instead, combine the part crcs together to form the file crc.
  • yEnc: allow pcrc= in addition to pcrc32= for yenc trailers, as some draft mentions both and it is actually in active use.
  • yEnc: ignore crc32= on multiparts, except on the last part, which avoids spurious corruption warnings.
  • be more precise in documenting code licenses in COPYING.
  • convert constant creation to the method I normally use.
  • use common::sense.
