1 Revision history for Test-Valgrind
3 1.15 2015-10-30 16:15 UTC
4 + Add : The new 'regen_def_supp' option can be passed to
5 Test::Valgrind->import to forcefully regenerate the default
7 + Fix : Build failures of the dummy XS code with PERL_IMPLICIT_SYS
9 + Fix : Handshake failures in tests with recent perls built with
11 + Tst : Improved diagnostics on failure.
12 + Upd : Freshen Makefile.PL.
14 1.14 2013-09-01 17:10 UTC
15 This is a maintenance release. The code contains no functional change.
16 Satisfied users of version 1.13 can skip this update.
17 + Doc : POD headings are now properly linkable.
18 + Tst : Author tests are no longer bundled with this distribution.
19 They are only made available to authors in the git repository.
20 + Tst : The stack traces used in t/20-bad.t have been made more
21 predictable when compiler optimizations are in use.
23 1.13 2011-08-25 15:45 UTC
24 + Fix : The session will now call the finish() method at the right time.
25 + Fix : The README file is now properly UTF-8-encoded.
26 + Tst : Test demangling of Z-encoded symbols.
28 1.12 2009-11-29 16:45 UTC
29 + Doc : The front documentation in Test::Valgrind was improved.
30 + Fix : Don't install Valgrind.so, as it's only used for testing.
31 + Fix : "Non-portable hex number" warnings.
32 + Fix : Old versions of valgrind could leave some Z-encoded symbols in
33 the stack traces. We now make sure they're always decoded.
35 1.11 2009-10-08 20:55 UTC
36 + Doc : Completion and improvements.
37 + Fix : Work around Kwalitee test misfailures.
38 + Upd : Freshen Makefile.PL.
40 1.10 2009-09-22 18:45 UTC
41 + Chg : valgrind is no longer required to be installed before installing
43 + Chg : The parser logic that used to be located inside the tool was
44 moved to a new Test::Valgrind::Parser hierarchy. The tool
45 decides which parser should be used by implementing the
46 "parser_class" method.
47 + Fix : Compatibility with valgrind 3.5.
48 + Fix : The "valgrind" option to Test::Valgrind::Session->new wasn't
50 + Fix : The "Test" action could generate inappropriate error messages.
52 1.02 2009-05-02 12:05 UTC
53 + Add : Commands can now be aggregated.
54 + Add : The commands can now also filter and mangle reports.
55 + Chg : The perl suppressions are now stripped from everything below
57 + Doc : Typos, nits and clarifications.
59 1.01 2009-04-14 21:15 UTC
60 + Add : Allow testing code given by -e. Hurray for source filters!
61 + Fix : Lazily load version.pm in Test::Valgrind::Session so that it's
62 not really needed at configure time.
63 + Fix : Don't unload dynamic extensions by default so that their symbols
64 still appear in the stack traces.
66 1.00 2009-04-12 22:50 UTC
67 Complete rewrite. The options passed to Test::Valgrind->import have
68 changed, so please have a look at the doc.
69 + Add : A brand new reusable API.
70 + Add : Suppressions are now versionized following the perl interpreter
71 and valgrind. They are regenerated as needed and stored in the
73 + Add : memcheck output is parsed by XML::Twig.
74 + Add : The output of the original script is now correctly captured.
75 + Rem : Lots of ugly hacks in the toolchain.
77 0.08 2009-02-08 18:25 UTC
78 + Add : Unload the libraries loaded by DynaLoader at END time, reducing
79 the number of leaks in perl.
80 + Rem : The useless t/21-good-block.t.
81 + Upd : META.yml spec updated to 1.4.
83 0.07 2008-09-30 13:35 UTC
84 + Chg : Now conforms to the Test::Builder framework.
85 + Fix : STDERR is longer eaten.
86 + Fix : Eat STDOUT or print it as diagnostics, but never let him go
87 through naked, as this may fiddle with the tests output.
88 + Fix : 'make test' without prior 'make'.
90 0.06 2008-09-09 22:10 UTC
91 + Fix : Suppressions were installed in the wrong path. Thanks Marvin
92 Humphrey for reporting this.
93 + Fix : Really load XSLoader when generating suppressions. Thanks Marvin
94 Humphrey again for bringing this to my attention.
95 + Fix : The logic for finding the file to run through valgrind was
96 flawed, which lead to generate suppressions against
97 Test/Valgrind.pm only.
99 0.051 2008-09-02 17:20 UTC
100 + Fix : Forgot to upgrade version of the suppression placeholder module.
102 0.05 2008-08-25 22:05 UTC
103 + Chg : Lower the default caller to 12.
104 + Tst : Add a real-life test that gets executed only if you have a C
107 0.04 2008-05-13 16:25 UTC
108 + Chg : Don't smoke this on 5.005 please.
109 + Chg : Better way to find the valgrind executable.
111 0.03 2008-04-21 15:35 UTC
112 + Fix : Include the mock Suppressions.pm rather than an empty file.
114 0.02 2008-04-21 15:25 UTC
115 + Add : Test::Valgrind now depends on Perl::Destruct::Level. This is
116 needed for non-debugging perls because we can't set their
117 level of memory cleanup correctness on exit with the
118 PERL_DESTRUCT_LEVEL environment variable.
119 + Add : Hardcode valgrind path into the new constant
120 Test::Valgrind::Suppressions::VG_PATH.
121 + Chg : Test::Valgrind::Suppressions::supppath() is now supp_path().
122 + Chg : lib/Test/Valgrind/Suppressions.pm.tpl was renamed to
123 lib/Test/Valgrind/Suppressions.tpl for file portability reasons.
125 0.01 2008-04-19 15:50 UTC
126 First version, released on an unsuspecting world.
