Revision history for Perl extension Physics::Unit. 0.02 - Added the prefixes "semi" and "demi", for 0.5. - Added the binary prefixes; see http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/binary.html - Added 'revolution', 'revolutions', and 'rpm'. - Added 'cycle' and 'cycles'. - Added 'degrees-rankine' - Removed some old code that was commented out. - Moved implementation-specific comments, including private method documentation, into UnitImpl.pm. - Added the "EXPRESSION GRAMMAR" section to Unit.pm. - Moved documentation about Scalar.pm private methods into ScalarImpl.pm. - Added "pica" and "point" units to Unit.pm - Also added "stone" and "stones" - Also added jeweler's units 'carat', 'carats', 'karat', 'karats', and 'j-point'. - Added a section to the Unit.pm documentation: "Naming Conflicts and Resolution". This describes all of the instances of units names that have multiple definitions (e.g. "point") and how each is resolved in this library. - Improved the documentation of the unit expression grammar. - Re-organized, slightly, the documentation of private methods in the Unit.pm module. - Re-organized, slightly, the documentation in the Scalar.pm module. - Changed *all* the files' newline format from DOS to Unix. - Updated the README file. - Unit.pm Documentation - Removed the "COMPILE-TIME STUFF" header and the associated paragraph. - InitBaseUnit() is showing up both under "Class Data" and "Public Utility Functions". I removed it from the former. - Ditto for InitPrefix(), InitTypes(), InitUnit(), and GetUnit(). Gene: was there some reason that I'm not seeing for including these under "Class Data"? - Added some of the grammar back into the documentation for the Parser methods. - Scalar.pm Documentation - I added the header "IMPLEMENTATION NOTES" two paragraphs after the "DEBUG OPTION" header, since the following paragraphs there aren't related to the debug option. - I took the ScalarFactory() function out of "PUBLIC METHODS", and put it under "PUBLIC UTILITY FUNCTIONS" (a new heading). 0.01 Thu Mar 6 13:23:15 2003 - original version; created by h2xs 1.22 with options -X -n Physics::Unit
