C h a n g e L o g o f e P e r l Changes in 2.0.3 ================ 960104 o added some documentation from the webpages to misc/doc/ o added a FreeBSD ports area to the webpages Changes in 2.0.2 ================ 960104 o remove of the temporary files were disabled for debugging purposes. Fixed. Changes in 2.0.1 ================ 960103 o removed unused variables Changes in 2.0.0 ================ 960102 o ePerl now supports the Perl 5 DynaLoader interface for dynamic linking and loading of shared modules. This provides ePerl with the complete power of the underlying Perl 5 installation, including the shared objects. o ePerl now runs as NPH-CGI/1.0 script, i.e. as a Non-Parsed-Header CGI-script. This means that it is able to create its own HTTP header. Implications of this include: - To create HTTP headers just put them on the first lines in your script as plain text or just generate them on the fly by a ePerl block at the beginning of your script. With this feature you can for instance write pages which create images instead of HTML code. - If no headers were created by the script, it outputs it with MIME-type "text/html", including an additional calculated "Content-Length" header. - It automatically adds "Date" and "Server" headers. o ePerl now saves and checks the STDERR output of the script. If this contains data this implies an error and leads to the display of the error HTML page, displaying the STDERR output. o ePerl now saves the STDOUT output of the script (the real contents). This implies that it can calculate the Content-Length or ignore it if STDERR was created and the error page have to be displayed. o Additional environment variables will be set by ePerl prior to the execution of the bristled Perl blocks: SCRIPT_SRC_SIZE ....... the byte size of the original source file SCRIPT_SRC_MTIME ...... the integer value of the last modify time SCRIPT_SRC_MTIME_FMT .. the formatted string of the last modify time SCRIPT_SRC_OWNER ...... the owner of the original source file VERSION_INTERPRETER ... the ePerl version string VERSION_LANGUAGE ...... the Perl version string o The ePerl sources were split into distinct peaces to allow further development, e.g. a standalone program or a Apache API module. Changes in 1.5 ============== 9609xx o started with the work to split the ePerl functionality into a library and create a stand-alone CGI-program and a Apache module which use this library. Changes in 1.4 ============== 960906 o changed source from PATH_INFO to PATH_TRANSLATED o cleanup the sources and released it the first time officially on the Web Changes in 1.3 ============== 960622 o created WWW pages o changed all old EPL references to ePerl o added a lot of comments to the source o made the begin and end delimiters variable o changed the end delimiter from ">" to "!>" because ">" makes problems if it occurs inside the ePerl block Changes in 1.2 ============== 960510 o created GNU autoconf files, Makefiles, etc. Changes in 1.1 ============== 960415 o fixed a bug in the escape code: more chars have to be escaped! Changes in 1.0 ============== 960323 o works fine with Apache 1.1b0+ak 960310 o *GENESIS*
