For some reason, + attempts to connect to a non-existent host can fail with + ERROR_TIMEOUT and no addinfo, rather than ERROR_CONNECT and + the hostname as addinfo; and the number of terms to request + in a scan needs to be explicitly specified in an option. + - Add "debclean" target to generated Makefile. + - Remove extraneous and misleading old CVS IDs. + +1.25 Fri Feb 19 15:04:26 GMT 2010 + - Fix test-suite not to run the "packages" tests against + test.indexdata.com, which has gone away, but against + z3950.indexdata.com, like the other tests. A new server + runs on a different port for these tests. + - Rename zdump.pl to zoomdump, and add it to the set of + programs installed. + - Switch to git for version control. Not that it should make + any difference to the Perl distribution. + - Add semicolons to the commented-out sample configuration + lines for Windows in Makefile.PL + +1.24 Tue Jun 17 11:31:08 BST 2008 + - When Net::Z3950::ZOOM::record_get() fetches an XML record + because the requested OPAC record is empty, it now wraps it + in an OPAC wrapper, making the difference invisible to + application code. + +1.23 Mon Jun 9 14:53:15 BST 2008 + - Net::Z3950::ZOOM::record_get() now patches around the + problem of naughty servers that refuse to return anything + for an OPAC record when there is no non-bibliographic part, + by falling back on requesting an XML record in such cases. + +1.22 Tue May 27 14:00:12 BST 2008 + - Fix Net::Z3950::ZOOM::record_get() to use a struct datachunk + _when_ appropriate, e.g. for "render" not for "database" and + "syntax". + - Remove the unused $len reference parameter from record_get() + and $record->get(): this is now used in the underlying C + layer to make Perl strings of the right length, and is of no + value higher up the stack. + - Fix a bug in ZOOM::ResultSet::records(): requests including + the last record in the set were incorrectly declined. + - Better Debian packaging: use "make debian" to create new + "debian/output" directory containing .deb package file, + changes file, etc. + - Clear up a few warnings in ZOOM.xs + - Minor documentation improvements. + +1.21 Mon Oct 29 12:07:25 GMT 2007 + - In the "typemap" file's handling of opaquechar*, use STRLEN + type for _unused_len in instead of unsigned: this prevents a + (possibly serious) warning on some 64-bit architectures, + although applications that do not use the option_binary() + methods will be safe with the previous release. + - Add explicit "#include " to ZOOM.xs in the hope + of preventing undeclared-function warnings that some users + have reported but which I have been unable to reproduce. + +1.20 Fri Sep 21 17:51:55 BST 2007 + - Add new sample program, samples/zoom/zoomscan.pl + - samples/zoom/zoomtst1.pl now accepts arbitrary options at + the end of the command-line, so that (for example) you can + specify a non-USMARC record syntax. + - Add new functions Net::Z3950::ZOOM::diag_srw_str() and + ZOOM::diag_srw_str() to map SRW diagnostic codes into + human-readable messages. + - ZOOM::Exception() constructor uses diag_srw_str() to fill in + the error message, if it is undefined, for SRW errors. + - The render() method of ZOOM::Exception(), and therefore the + overloaded stringifying operator, deals with exceptions that + have no message(). + - Corrected the scan parts of the test-suite that use CQL so + that they explicitly perform client-side CQL compilation and + send the resulting Type-1 query. Previously, these tests + were (accidentally) requesting that CQL be sent as-is to the + server, but this mistake was being masked by an error in + older versions of ZOOM-C that compiled client-side anyway! + +1.19 Mon Jul 9 14:09:31 BST 2007 + - Add $conn->exception() method. + - Set version number for Net::Z3950 to 0.99 -- less than the + 1.0 version number that will be used when it successfully + emulates the old Net::Z3950 module, but superseding the last + release, 0.51, of that module. + - Include samples/zoom/zdump.pl in distribution. + - Add "irspy" namespace to samples/zoom/zselect + +1.18 Mon Feb 26 14:57:48 GMT 2007 + - When a connection is in asynchronous mode, failing + operations (search, scan, etc.) no longer throw exceptions. + This is because the event-loop in asychronous applications + needs to check for errors anyway, in case the server has + returned high-level diagnostics such as "unsupported use + attribute". So this check within the event-loop is now the + only place where error-checking need be done. + - Add new public ZOOM::Connection() function, check(), which + throws an exception if an error is pending (even if the + connection is asynchronous). + - New YAZ logging level, "zoom_check", notes when errors are + detected and either left unreported (asynchronous + connections) or thrown as exception (synchronous). + +1.17 Thu Feb 22 20:38:45 GMT 2007 + - Change Net::Z3950::ZOOM::event() to allocate its array of + connection pointers dynamically, so there is no longer an + arbitrary limit of 100. + - New connection-level option "_check_debug" emits messages on + standard error when checking a connection find an error that + is about to result in throwing an exception. There is no + reason for you ever to use this, though -- pretend you don't + know about it. + +1.16 Tue Jan 16 11:18:34 GMT 2007 + - Require version 2.1.41 or better of YAZ, so that Init + Response options are available using + $conn->option("init_opt_sort") etc. + - Include samples/zoom/zhello.pl to exercise these options. + - Add ZOOM_connection_peek_event() and $conn->peek_event(). + - Require YAZ version 2.1.45, which is the first to provide + ZOOM_connection_peek_event(). + 1.15 Fri Dec 1 14:17:49 GMT 2006 - ZOOM::Error::INIT is renamed to ZOOM::Error::ZINIT, since INIT is a reserved word in Perl.
