This incompatible change means that + RELEASE 1.09 WILL NOT BUILD against any recent YAZ. + +1.09 Tue Jun 13 17:44:43 2006 + - Add new function Net::Z3950::ZOOM::query_ccl2rpn(), for + client-side CCL compilation. + - Add new ZOOM::Query::CCL2RPN class, encapsulating CCL + compiler functionality as a Query subclass. This allows + client-side CCL to be used for both search and scan. + - Add two new error-codes, CCL_CONFIG and CCL_PARSE, + returned by the client-side CCL facilities. + - Supply a sample CCL profile file: samples/ccl/default.bib, + copied from the same-named file distributed with YAZ. + - The test-scripts t/12-query.t and t/22-query.t are extended + to also test client-side CCL searching. + - The test-scripts t/15-scan.t and t/25-scan.t are extended + to also test client-side CCL scanning. + - Documentation updated to describe use of CCL. + - Add a nice, simple update client: samples/zoom/update.pl + +1.08 Thu May 11 22:40:41 BST 2006 + - Requires version 2.1.11 of YAZ, not 2.0.11. This is a + bugfix: the old reliance on 2.0.11 was merely a typo. + +1.07 Thu May 11 17:45:37 BST 2006 + - Makefile.PL checks for at least version 2.1.11 of YAZ, and + refuses to build if it's not present. Thanks to "gregor" + (an otherwise anonymous CPAN tester) for notifying me of the + previously poor reporting of failure when running against an + earlier YAZ. + - No changes to functionality or documentation. + +1.06 Wed Apr 19 21:11:52 BST 2006 + - Avoid mixed statement/declaration in ZOOM.xs. *sigh* Why + the heck GCC allows this by default I will never understand. + - Add (commented out) OPTIMIZE option to Makefile.PL, to turn + on -Wdeclaration-after-statement, which makes mixed + statement/declaration illegal. + +1.05 Wed Apr 12 13:31:27 BST 2006 + - Implementation of asynchronous events! The Net::Z3950::ZOOM + interface provides this through the event, last_event() and + event_str() functions. The ZOOM interface provides it + through the ZOOM::event() and ZOOM:event_str() functions, + and the ZOOM::Connection class's last_event() function. + - New sample programs added illustrating both asynchronous + interfaces: samples/net-z3950-zoom/zoomtst3.pl and + samples/zoom/zoomtst3.pl respectively. Additional sample + programs "async.pl" and "trivial-async.pl" for the ZOOM + interface only, the latter being a "shortest possible + broadcast search application". + - Added documentation on writing asynchronous applications. + - Added test-scripts "t/19-events.t" and "t/29-event.t" for + events on an asynchronous connection. + - Fix ZOOM::Connection::new so that options are handled in + accordance with the documentation: applied _before_ the + connection is forged, so that "async" and similar options + can take effect. + +1.04 Mon Apr 3 14:56:11 BST 2006 + - The ZOOM-Perl layer now provides access to the underlying + ZOOM-C's character-translation functionality, through new + optional arguments to ZOOM::Record's render() and raw() + methods, and a new underlying get() method. + +1.03 Thu Mar 9 12:55:23 GMT 2006 + - Allow additional key => value pairs as arguments to the + ZOOM::Connectoion constructor; these are added as Connection + options before the protocol connection is forged. + +1.02 Thu Mar 9 11:36:55 GMT 2006 + - Add interface to yaz_version(). + - Emit big warning at startup time if YAZ version is less than + 2.0.11 (which is what ZOOM-Perl 1.02 requires) unless the + file /tmp/ignore-ZOOM-YAZ-version-mismatch exists. + - Fix incorrect ZOOM-package URL in documentation. + - Fix typo ("createdb" package) in documentation. + - The ZOOM::Connection constructor may now be called with only + a single argument (host-string) and does not require a + dummy port-number argument. + +1.01 Thu Dec 22 14:13:34 GMT 2005 + - Place some CODE: chunks in "ZOOM.xs" inside curly brackets + so that the declarations they begin with are at the start of + the block. This avoid mixed code/declarations. (The + "correct" solution is to use INIT: clauses in the XS file, + but they don't seem to work: the code in them is slapped + down right next to the CODE:, so declarations are not + acceptable there either.) + - Add new function Net::Z3950::ZOOM::connection_scan1(), which + uses a query object to indicate the start-term. This opens + the way for using CQL queries for scanning once the + underlying ZOOM-C code supports this. + - NOTE BACKWARDS-INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: The ZOOM::Connection + method scan() is renamed scan_pqf(), and a new scan() method + is introduced which calls the underlying scan1() function. + Thus the scan()/scan_pqf() dichotomy is consistent with that + between search()/search_pqf(). + - The tests t/15-scan.t and t/25-scan.t now also test for + scanning by CQL query. To support these tests, a new files + is added to the distribution, "samples/cql/pqf.properties" + - Remove nonsensical clause about CQL sort-specifications from + the documentation. + - Add new function Net::Z3950::ZOOM::query_cql2rpn(), for + client-side CQL compilation. + - Add new ZOOM::Query::CQL2RPN class, encapsulating CQL + compiler functionality as a Query subclass. + - Add two new error-codes, CQL_PARSE and CQL_TRANSFORM, + returned by the client-side CQL facilities. + - The test-scripts t/12-query.t and t/22-query.t are extended + to also test client-side CQL compilation. + - Add all the yaz_log*() functions within the Net::Z3950::ZOOM + namespace. + - Add new ZOOM::Log class for logging, providing aliases for + the functions in the Net::Z3950::ZOOM layer. + - Add diagnostic set to rendering of Exception objects. + - Documentation added for CQL compilation and logging. + +1.00 Wed Dec 14 11:18:33 GMT 2005 + - First distributed version. + 0.01 Fri Oct 7 16:14:20 2005 - original version; created by h2xs 1.23 with options - --name=Net::Z3950::ZOOM --compat-version=5.8.0 --omit-constant --skip-exporter --skip-ppport --autogen-xsubs yaz/zoom.h -lyaz -lxml2 + --name=Net::Z3950::ZOOM --compat-version=5.8.0 \ + --omit-constant --skip-exporter --skip-ppport \ + --autogen-xsubs yaz/zoom.h -lyaz -lxml2 + +-- + +To be done in future releases: + - Complete, test and document "update.pl" + - Fix Net::Z3950::ZOOM::record_get() to use a struct datachunk + _when_ appropriate, e.g. for "render" but probably not for + "database" and "syntax". + - Create old-style Net::Z3950 compatibility layer. + - Fix memory leaks in callback functions for option sets. + - Fix limitation that option-set callback functions must be + specified as strings containing package-qualified function + names. +
