1 Revision history for Test-Valgrind
3 1.14 2013-09-01 17:10 UTC
4 This is a maintenance release. The code contains no functional change.
5 Satisfied users of version 1.13 can skip this update.
6 + Doc : POD headings are now properly linkable.
7 + Tst : Author tests are no longer bundled with this distribution.
8 They are only made available to authors in the git repository.
9 + Tst : The stack traces used in t/20-bad.t have been made more
10 predictable when compiler optimizations are in use.
12 1.13 2011-08-25 15:45 UTC
13 + Fix : The session will now call the finish() method at the right time.
14 + Fix : The README file is now properly UTF-8-encoded.
15 + Tst : Test demangling of Z-encoded symbols.
17 1.12 2009-11-29 16:45 UTC
18 + Doc : The front documentation in Test::Valgrind was improved.
19 + Fix : Don't install Valgrind.so, as it's only used for testing.
20 + Fix : "Non-portable hex number" warnings.
21 + Fix : Old versions of valgrind could leave some Z-encoded symbols in
22 the stack traces. We now make sure they're always decoded.
24 1.11 2009-10-08 20:55 UTC
25 + Doc : Completion and improvements.
26 + Fix : Work around Kwalitee test misfailures.
27 + Upd : Freshen Makefile.PL.
29 1.10 2009-09-22 18:45 UTC
30 + Chg : valgrind is no longer required to be installed before installing
32 + Chg : The parser logic that used to be located inside the tool was
33 moved to a new Test::Valgrind::Parser hierarchy. The tool
34 decides which parser should be used by implementing the
35 "parser_class" method.
36 + Fix : Compatibility with valgrind 3.5.
37 + Fix : The "valgrind" option to Test::Valgrind::Session->new wasn't
39 + Fix : The "Test" action could generate inappropriate error messages.
41 1.02 2009-05-02 12:05 UTC
42 + Add : Commands can now be aggregated.
43 + Add : The commands can now also filter and mangle reports.
44 + Chg : The perl suppressions are now stripped from everything below
46 + Doc : Typos, nits and clarifications.
48 1.01 2009-04-14 21:15 UTC
49 + Add : Allow testing code given by -e. Hurray for source filters!
50 + Fix : Lazily load version.pm in Test::Valgrind::Session so that it's
51 not really needed at configure time.
52 + Fix : Don't unload dynamic extensions by default so that their symbols
53 still appear in the stack traces.
55 1.00 2009-04-12 22:50 UTC
56 Complete rewrite. The options passed to Test::Valgrind->import have
57 changed, so please have a look at the doc.
58 + Add : A brand new reusable API.
59 + Add : Suppressions are now versionized following the perl interpreter
60 and valgrind. They are regenerated as needed and stored in the
62 + Add : memcheck output is parsed by XML::Twig.
63 + Add : The output of the original script is now correctly captured.
64 + Rem : Lots of ugly hacks in the toolchain.
66 0.08 2009-02-08 18:25 UTC
67 + Add : Unload the libraries loaded by DynaLoader at END time, reducing
68 the number of leaks in perl.
69 + Rem : The useless t/21-good-block.t.
70 + Upd : META.yml spec updated to 1.4.
72 0.07 2008-09-30 13:35 UTC
73 + Chg : Now conforms to the Test::Builder framework.
74 + Fix : STDERR is longer eaten.
75 + Fix : Eat STDOUT or print it as diagnostics, but never let him go
76 through naked, as this may fiddle with the tests output.
77 + Fix : 'make test' without prior 'make'.
79 0.06 2008-09-09 22:10 UTC
80 + Fix : Suppressions were installed in the wrong path. Thanks Marvin
81 Humphrey for reporting this.
82 + Fix : Really load XSLoader when generating suppressions. Thanks Marvin
83 Humphrey again for bringing this to my attention.
84 + Fix : The logic for finding the file to run through valgrind was
85 flawed, which lead to generate suppressions against
86 Test/Valgrind.pm only.
88 0.051 2008-09-02 17:20 UTC
89 + Fix : Forgot to upgrade version of the suppression placeholder module.
91 0.05 2008-08-25 22:05 UTC
92 + Chg : Lower the default caller to 12.
93 + Tst : Add a real-life test that gets executed only if you have a C
96 0.04 2008-05-13 16:25 UTC
97 + Chg : Don't smoke this on 5.005 please.
98 + Chg : Better way to find the valgrind executable.
100 0.03 2008-04-21 15:35 UTC
101 + Fix : Include the mock Suppressions.pm rather than an empty file.
103 0.02 2008-04-21 15:25 UTC
104 + Add : Test::Valgrind now depends on Perl::Destruct::Level. This is
105 needed for non-debugging perls because we can't set their
106 level of memory cleanup correctness on exit with the
107 PERL_DESTRUCT_LEVEL environment variable.
108 + Add : Hardcode valgrind path into the new constant
109 Test::Valgrind::Suppressions::VG_PATH.
110 + Chg : Test::Valgrind::Suppressions::supppath() is now supp_path().
111 + Chg : lib/Test/Valgrind/Suppressions.pm.tpl was renamed to
112 lib/Test/Valgrind/Suppressions.tpl for file portability reasons.
114 0.01 2008-04-19 15:50 UTC
115 First version, released on an unsuspecting world.
