Software Version Description for Data::Startup - startup options class, override, config methods Revision: A Version: 0.02 Date: 2004/04/29 Prepared for: General Public Prepared by: SoftwareDiamonds.com E<lt>support@SoftwareDiamonds.comE<gt> Copyright: copyright © 2003 Software Diamonds Classification: NONE
This paragraph identifies and provides an overview of the released files.
This release, identified in 3.2, is a collection of Perl modules that extend the capabilities of the Perl language.
The "Data::Startup" module extends the Perl language (the system).
Many times there is a group of subroutines that can be tailored by different situations with a few, say global variables. However, global variables pollute namespaces, become mangled when the functions are multi-threaded and probably have many other faults that it is not worth the time discovering.
As well documented in literature, object oriented programming do not have these faults. This program module class of objects provide the objectized options for a group of subroutines or encapsulated options by using the methods directly as in an option object.
This document releases Data::Startup version 0.02 providing a description of the inventory, installation instructions and other information necessary to utilize and track this release.
All file specifications in this SVD use the Unix operating system file specification.

FAILURE:
From: "Thurn, Martin" <martin.thurn@ngc.com> Date: Thu, 29 Apr 2004 09:21:20 -0400 (EDT) Subject: FAIL Data-Startup-0.01 sun4-solaris 2.8
I noticed that the test suite seem to fail without these modules: Data::SecsPack
CORRECTION:
Added Data::SecsPack to the test library. The test Perl site lib only was corrupted and had a Data::SecsPack install else c<vmake> would of failed. Remove Data::SecsPack from the test Perl only site lib.
This installation requires that the installation site has the Perl programming language installed. There are no other additional requirements or tailoring needed of configurations files, adaptation data or other software needed for this installation particular to any installation site.
There are no related documents needed for the installation and test of this release.
Instructions for installation, installation tests and installation support are as follows:
To installed the release file, use the CPAN module pr PPM module in the Perl release or the INSTALL.PL script at the following web site:
http://packages.SoftwareDiamonds.com
Follow the instructions for the the chosen installation software.
If all else fails, the file may be manually installed. Enter one of the following repositories in a web browser:
http://www.softwarediamonds/packages/ http://www.perl.com/CPAN/authors/id/S/SO/SOFTDIA/
Right click on 'Data-Startup-0.02.tar.gz' and download to a temporary installation directory. Enter the following where $make is 'nmake' for microsoft windows; otherwise 'make'.
gunzip Data-Startup-0.02.tar.gz tar -xf Data-Startup-0.02.tar perl Makefile.PL $make test $make install
On Microsoft operating system, nmake, tar, and gunzip must be in the exeuction path. If tar and gunzip are not install, download and install unxutils from
