Changes for version 1.64 - 2010-07-01

  • THINGS THAT MAY BREAK YOUR CODE
    • If you've been accessing $mech->{forms} or $mech->{form} values directly, instead of going through the $mech->forms or $mech->current_form accessors, respectively, then this version of Mech will break your code.
  • ENHANCEMENTS
    • Parsing of forms has been delayed until they're actually needed. If don't use forms on a page, you'll no longer waste time and memory parsing them.
    • $mech->title now caches the title of the page after parsing the page to find it.
    • mech-dump now takes a --cookie-file parameter for keeping cookies between calls.
  • DOCUMENTATION
    • Typo fixes.
