Changes for version 0.35_01 - 2009-08-31

  • Enhancements
  • Generates MYMETA.yml during Build.PL (new standard protocol for communicating configuration results between toolchain components)
    • David Golden
  • Added 'share_dir' property to provide File::ShareDir support; set automatically if a directory called 'share' exists
    • David Golden
  • Bug fixes:
  • Fix the t/destinations.t fix. [David Golden, with thanks to Eric Wilhelm]
  • Fix recursive test files in generated Makefile.PL (RT#49254) [Sawyer X]
  • Guard against trying :utf8 when :utf8 isn't available
  • The "test" action now dies when using the 'use_tap_harness' option and tests fail, matching the behavior under Test::Harness. (RT#49080) [initial patch from David Wheeler; revised by David Golden]
  • Other:
  • Added t/README.pod and t/sample.t to guide developers writing new tests
    • David Golden, with some code from Eric Wilhelm
  • Module::Build::Compat 'passthrough' style has been deprecated. Using 'passthrough' will issue warnings on Makefile.PL generation. See Module::Build::Compat documentation for rationale.
