Revision history for Perl extension File::Util.pm

4.201720 2020-06-19
   - Bugfix for issue where @INC was being disrupted, detailed at
     https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=132060

     Sorry for the delay in fixing it - coronavirus happened to the world :(
     Good luck everyone and please stay safe.

4.161950 2016-07-12
  - This release fixes a critical bug in the list_dir() method, detailed at
    https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=115511
  - Regression test added to catch the failure condition
  - NOTE: No major code or featureset changes included as part of this release,
    therefore it is still deemed "stable", as no significant changes to the code
    have been made beyond a two line bugfix that remedies the problem that
    caused the list_dir() method to fail under certain conditions.

4.161200 2016-04-29
  - The previous TRIAL release passes muster by cpantesters.  This is
    now released as a STABLE dist, although more features are planned in
    coming releases.  See also: TODO

4.160630 2016-03-03
 - TRIAL RELEASE
 - Fix for bug https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=106771
 - Added tests
 - Added documentation regarding the bug fix, namely the now-unsupported
   (because Perl 5.23 deprecates) the combination of sysread/write/seek
   on filehandles in :utf8 binmode.
 - Added the ability for users to specify their own IO layers via the
   { binmode => ':layerspec' } option to ::load_file(), ::write_file(),
   and ::open_handle()

4.131591 2013-06-07
 - POD (documentation) corrections.

4.131570 2013-06-06
 - Since Sat Mar 2 01:13:46 CST 2013, there has been an unofficial code
   freeze in effect, during which time 580 test runs from the CPAN smoke
   testers have had a 100% complete PASS rate.

 - So I'm pleased to announce that I'm releasing this code as-is, under
   the "STABLE"/"MATURE" designation.

 - There are important bug fixes since the last STABLE release, particularly
   in making the File::Util::max_dives() method behave as documented.  See
   also https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=85141

 - Near future plans are laid out in the TODO documentation file also
   included with this documentation.

4.130610 2013-03-02
 - TRIAL version, much polish on the quality of the distribution itself,
   including extensive POD checks, fixes in documentation quality, and
   overall tidiness.  Reorganized the test suite so it remains correct to
   "t" and "xt" test division conventions.  Included a list of contributors.

4.130590 2013-02-27
 - TRIAL version, probably the final trial before release as a mature distro
   in the 4.x series (the 3.x series is already "mature" status).

 - This release introduces unicode support via UTF-8 strict.  Naturally
   the test suite and coverage had to be expanded to cover the new feature
   set.  Documentation has also been updated to include explanation of
   how to make use UTF-8 encoding in File::Util.
