3 Revision history for Perl extension Net::Z3950::ZOOM.
6 - Place some CODE: chunks in "ZOOM.xs" inside curly brackets
7 so that the declarations they begin with are at the start of
8 the block. This avoid mixed code/declarations. (The
9 "correct" solution is to use INIT: clauses in the XS file,
10 but they don't seem to work: the code in them is slapped
11 down right next to the CODE:, so declarations are not
12 acceptable there either.)
13 - Add new function Net::Z3950::ZOOM::connection_scan1(), which
14 uses a query object to indicate the start-term. This opens
15 the way for using CQL queries for scanning once the
16 underlying ZOOM-C code supports this.
17 - NOTE BACKWARDS-INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: The ZOOM::Connection
18 method scan() is renamed scan_pqf(), and a new scan() method
19 is introduced which calls the underlying scan1() function.
20 Thus the scan()/scan_pqf() dichotomy is consistent with that
21 between search()/search_pqf().
22 - The tests t/15-scan.t and t/25-scan.t now also test for
23 scanning by CQL query.

26 - First distributed version.

29 - original version; created by h2xs 1.23 with options
30 --name=Net::Z3950::ZOOM --compat-version=5.8.0 \
31 --omit-constant --skip-exporter --skip-ppport \
32 --autogen-xsubs yaz/zoom.h -lyaz -lxml2
36 To be done in future releases:
37 - Fix Net::Z3950::ZOOM::record_get() to use a struct datachunk
38 _when_ appropriate, e.g. for "render" but probably not for
39 "database" and "syntax".
40 - Support for asynchronous multiplexing: implement
41 ZOOM::event() and test ZOOM::Connection::last_event().
42 - Write example programs for "samples" direction.
43 - Create old-style Net::Z3950 compatibility layer.
44 - Fix memory leaks in callback functions for option sets.
45 - Fix limitation that option-set callback functions must be
46 specified as strings containing package-qualified function
48 - Fix test-suite to actually send the "drop" packages once
49 Zebra's been fixed so this doesn't current the store.
