Changes for version 0.44

  • Added 'raw' flag to constructor, allows for more convenient raw access to underlying serializers
  • retrieve altered to read in full contents of file specified, this change could be disruptive if you were using retrieve in a non-standard way, so be aware of it.
  • store and retrieve when the raw flag is set will do what you would expect and store and retrieve serialized data from files in their raw underlying serializer format with no Data::Serializer markup included
  • Removed last usage of Autoloader (decided it isn't worth the irritation of keeping it)
  • Updated Data::Serializer::Cookbook to reference the raw flag and de-emphasis the use of raw_ methods.
    • Thanks to Charles Gowing <charles.gowing@novainfo.com> for noticing that retrieve with portable set to 0 was quite broken. That led to revisiting the 'raw' concept and improving it. Now does work with portable set to 0 (using raw set to a true value is likely a better choice however).
