CHANGELOG

v2.10 (2022/??/??)
==================
--Added subPre/Postamble convenience functions to Paranoid::Debug, 
  along with argument summarization
--Changed pdebug output to make it easier to match entrance/exit 
  points in subroutine messages
--Added file import/export functionality to Paranoid::Data::AVLTree
--Added basic internal profiling support to Paranoid::Data::AVLTree
--Modified default PATH for pSecureEnv to include sbin directories
--Added quad/long conversion functions to Paranoid::Data, along with 
  a boolean function to detect native quad support
--Various documentation fixes/enhancements

v2.09 (2021/12/28)
==================
--Added new export options for Paranoid::IO
--Added new flock stack mechanism to support transactional I/O patterns
--Improved open flag filtering on reopens
--pflock now performs and popen in order to make sure an flock is 
  properly applied to reopened file handles in children
--Improved pdebug logging for items geting passed arbitrary content
  (logging bytes in content, rather that spilling complete content into the
  logs)
--Added non-flocking variants of I/O functions
--Added I/O tests w/pflock stack enabled to ensure consistent behaviour
--Added Paranoid::IO::FileMultiplexer class, which allows for multiple 
  data stream I/O within a single file, but using normal discrete file
  I/O semantics
--Fixed Paranoid::Filesystem test to account for NetBSD's noatime
  implementation (utime calls for atime fail entirely)

v2.08 (2020/12/31)
==================
--Updated licensing information to reflect Paranoid trademark impact
--Added IMPORT LISTS section to all modules with exportable functions
Paranoid::Args:
--Added template list for exports
Paranoid::Data::AVLTree:
--Added a tree & node class implementing AVL-balanced tree structures
Paranoid:Debug:
--Added constants list for exports
--Documentation updates
Paranoid::Log:
--Minor internal refactoring
Paranoid::Process:
--Added pcommFork to facilitate forking with bi-directional process
  communication

v2.07 (2019/02/01)
==================
Paranoid::Args:
--Consolidate error messages, removing reports for both short/long argument
  versions, etc
--Correlate AccompaniedBy/ExclusiveOf errors to both long/short versions
--Automatically set Multiple/CanBundle and Template for any templates
  w/CountShort
--Automatically set CanBundle for any options w/a short option and a
  template of '' or '$'.  The latter is done if there is also a long
  name for the option
--Add templates for debug, verbose, help, and version for convenience
Paranoid::Debug:
--Modified pdebug to provide support for plog-passing of messages
--PDPREFIX subroutines are now passed the appropriate caller name during
  invocation
--Added PDEBUG1 - PDEBUG8 for developer convenience
Paranoid::Filesystem:
--Fix pmkdir to treat permissions as explicit, not relative to umask
--Modified ptranslatePerms to allow it to be passed octal numbers (or string
  representations of octal numbers) and have it return those values
  unmodified.  This makes it agnostic to translated or untranslated input.
Paranoid::Glob:
--Prune redundant / in paths
Paranoid::Input:
--Documented NEWLINE_REGEX
Paranoid::IO:
--File locking had some corner cases in which flocks weren't applied.
  Removed that logic entirely, locks are now applied, regardless.
Paranoid::Log:
--Added Stdout mechanism that passes log messages to STDOUT
--Added Stderr mechanism that passes log messages to STDERR
--Added PDebug mechanism that passes log messages to pdebug, and allows
  for pdebug to be used as a message preprocessor for sprintf functionality
--Added plverbosity as a convenience function to support Stdout/Stderr
  messages for non-interactive applications
Paranoid::Process:
--fixed pfork to make sure the children counters were reset for the child,
  so max children limits apply on a per-process basis.  Doing it globally
  was unreliable, especially since children only knew what the parent's
  count was prior to forking.

v2.06 (2018/08/06)
==================
--Typos in documentation (Debian Perl Group)
--Fixed bug in pflock in Paranoid::Process that failed to apply the 
  flock as requested
--Improved pflock testing as used by Paranoid::Log::File
--Updated Paranoid::IO::Line POD to clarify the third option to many
  functions which control line chomping.
--Improved Paranoid::Process to constrain SIGCHLD handling to only those 
  children forked specifically with/pfork().  This keeps evals and
  miscellaneous system calls from skewing the counter.
--Fixed pchown tests for platforms that use negative numbers for uid/gid

v2.05 (2017/03/23)
==================
--pkmdir would fail when given paths that included . or .. subdirs,
  fixed
--improved error message from pkmdir to make it obvious what specific
  portion of the path failed
--fixed a bug in popen where reopening a filehandle that was stored 
  under its absolute name deleted the internal cache record
--fixed sigchld signal preemption so it doesn't miss children exit
  codes

v2.04 (2016/09/19)
==================
--Added signal dispatcher functionality to Paranoid::Process

v2.03 (2016/08/09)
==================
--Bad plan for non-IPv6-enabled systems

  previous error in $! that set ENOENT
--Fixed error in Paranoid::Filesystem where umask was improperly applied
--Fixed error in popen where mode & perms weren't detainted completely
--Adjusted log file test to account for some timing issues on some platforms
--Expanded documentation for Paranoid::Input (documenting known regexes)

--Added passed regex functionality to detaint
--Updated detaint to make target var (third argument) optional
--Updated detaint to work on arrays and hashes as well
--Improved/expanded module unit tests
--Eliminated use of prototypes except where absolutely needed 
  (which eliminates the need to pass by reference for many functions)
--Eliminated pglob from Paranoid::Filesystem.  Globs should be handled
  exclusively through Paranoid::Glob.
--Modified all Paranoid::Filesystem functions to reorder arguments in 
  actual order of importance, making optional arguments truly optional
--Made all Paranoid::Filesystem functions consistent in declaring 
  a filesystem target:  you can pass either a string or a glob, but if
  specifying disparate targets as a list you must pass it as a 
  Paranoid::Glob.
--Removed Paranoid::BerkeleyDB, Paranoid::Log::Syslog, and 
  Paranoid::Log::Email.  Those are now in their own CPAN distributions.
--Added/improved various regexes in Paranoid::Input
--Improved Paranoid::Network's extractIPs to also extract network 
  addresses

  so using Socket6's exclusively

v0.26 (2010/05/08)
