autodie

Changes for version 2.00 - 2009-06-29

FEATURE: autodie can now accept hints regarding how user and module subroutines should be handled. See autodie::hints for more information.
INTERFACE: The calls to the internal subroutines one_invocation() and write_invocation() have changed. An additional argument (the user subroutine reference) is passed as the second-last argument. This may break code that previously tried to call these subroutines directly.
BUGFIX: Calls to subroutines to File::Copy should now correctly throw exceptions when called in a list context.
BUGFIX: An internal error where autodie could potentially fail to correctly report a dying function's name has been fixed.
BUGFIX: autodie will no longer clobber package scalars when a format has the same name as an autodying function. (Thanks to Ben Morrow)
INTERFACE: The internal interfaces for fill_protos(), one_invocation(), write_invocation() are now once again backward compatible with legacy versions of Fatal. It is still strongly recommended these interfaces are NOT called directly. The _make_fatal() subroutine is not backwards compatible.
TEST: Added internal-backcompat.t to test backwards compatibility of internal interfaces.
DOCUMENTATION: Expanded documentation regarding how autodie changes calls to system(), and how this must be explicitly enabled.
BUILD: Upgraded to Module::Install 0.91
BUGFIX: A situation where certain compile-time diagnostics and errors from autodie would not be displayed has been fixed.
