Changes for version 0.71_01 - 2003-12-21

  • THINGS THAT MAY BREAK YOUR CODE
    • WWW::Mechanize::Link's constructor has a new argument that needs to be passed in, at the start of the argument list.
  • ENHANCEMENTS
    • WWW::Mechanize::Link object now takes a $base URL, and will return absolute URLs with the url_abs() method. Thanks to Ashley Pond.
    • Added another script to WWW::Mechanize::Examples. It's a script that didn't make it into Spidering Hacks.
  • INSTALL & TESTS
    • Heavy use of the new Test::Memory::Cycle module.
    • Fixed Makefile.PL so that the tests are selected under Win32.
    • Changed t/mech-dump.t so that the test succeeds under Win32.
    • Updated t/referer.t and t/mech-dump.t so they run under VMS. Thanks to Peter Prymmer.
