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. To support these tests, a new files
24 is added to the distribution, "samples/cql/pqf.properties"
25 - Remove nonsensical clause about CQL sort-specifications from
27 - Add new function Net::Z3950::ZOOM::query_cql2rpn(), for
28 client-side CQL compilation.
29 - Add new ZOOM::Query::CQL2RPN class, encapsulating CQL
30 compiler functionality as a Query subclass.
31 - Add two new error-codes, CQL_PARSE and CQL_TRANSFORM,
32 returned by the client-side CQL facilities.
33 - The test-scripts t/12-query.t and t/22-query.t are extended
34 to also test client-side CQL compilation.
35 - Add all the yaz_log*() functions within the Net::Z3950::ZOOM
37 - Add new ZOOM::Log class for logging, providing aliases for
38 the functions in the Net::Z3950::ZOOM layer.
39 - Add diagnostic set to rendering of Exception objects.
40 - ### Documentation updates required for CQL compilation,
41 logging and exception rendering.

44 - First distributed version.
46 0.01 Fri Oct 7 16:14:20 2005
47 - original version; created by h2xs 1.23 with options
48 --name=Net::Z3950::ZOOM --compat-version=5.8.0 \
49 --omit-constant --skip-exporter --skip-ppport \
50 --autogen-xsubs yaz/zoom.h -lyaz -lxml2
54 To be done in future releases:
55 - Fix Net::Z3950::ZOOM::record_get() to use a struct datachunk
56 _when_ appropriate, e.g. for "render" but probably not for
57 "database" and "syntax".
58 - Support for asynchronous multiplexing: implement
59 ZOOM::event() and test ZOOM::Connection::last_event().
60 - Write example programs for "samples" direction.
61 - Create old-style Net::Z3950 compatibility layer.
62 - Fix memory leaks in callback functions for option sets.
63 - Fix limitation that option-set callback functions must be
64 specified as strings containing package-qualified function
66 - Fix test-suite to actually send the "drop" packages once
67 Zebra's been fixed so this doesn't current the store.
