You can test if it had been + built with thread safety features enabled through the + VMG_THREADSAFE constant. + + Fix : Correct backtrace when wizard() croaks. + + Fix : 'cast $a, undef' should throw an 'invalid wizard' error instead + of an 'invalid signature'. + +0.19 2008-07-05 15:05 UTC + + Add : The patchlevel with which the module has been built is now + exported with the VMG_PERL_PATCHLEVEL constant. + + Chg : Version checking macros overhaul. + + Fix : 'uvar' magic should only be enabled in maint-5.10 and higher + since it's never going to be backported to 5.8. + + Fix : Likewise, the copy callback API change should only be enabled in + 5.11 and higher. + + Fix : Instead of those ackward fake refcount increments in the wizard + destructor, flag the wizard with SVf_BREAK and force temps + cleanup. This should fix the wizard destruction for all perls, + and solves the leak introduced by the previous solution. + +0.18 2008-07-04 12:20 UTC + + Fix : Enable uvar magic when patchlevel >= 28419. + + Fix : Set VMG_COMPAT_ARRAY_PUSH_NOLEN for Windows ActiveState Perl + 5.8.x. + +0.17 2008-05-11 09:05 UTC + + Fix : 5.8.4 and lower don't have mPUSHi. Gah. Yeah, I know, I should + use Devel::PPPort. + +0.16 2008-05-10 22:05 UTC + + Add : The samples/copy.pl script. + + Chg : The sv_magical() + vmg_mg_magical() combo was simplified into + vmg_sv_magicuvar(). + + Tst : t/33-code.t was testing scalars, not code. + + Tst : is() and like() are better than ok(). + + Tst : 100% coverage reached. + +0.15 2008-04-11 18:25 UTC + + Chg : Factor vmg_cb_call{1,2,3}() into one function. + + Fix : len magic is no longer called when taking the length() of a + magical scalar since p32969. The VMG_COMPAT_SCALAR_LENGTH_NOLEN + constant was added to cover this. + + Tst : More tests for t/22-len.t. + +0.14 2008-03-24 12:35 UTC + + Fix : t/16-huf.t failures on Solaris and FreeBSD caused by not + updating mg->mg_ptr after Renew-ing it on dispell. + + Fix : Undefining MGf_DUP caused the wizard's magic to be wrongly + initialized. MGf_DUP now appears as true from the user point of + view, but the dup callback isn't actually set. + + Fix : Warnings with blead due to copy callbacks now taking an I32 (API + change #33256). + + Fix : vmg_svt_val() and vmg_uvar_del() aren't required if no uvar + magic is available. + + Tst : Tests now output the version of optional modules loaded. + +0.13 2008-03-19 14:35 UTC + + Doc : Link to coverage report. + + Fix : Correct dependencies listing in META.yml. + + Tst : Improved test coverage. + + Tst : Print the patchlevel as a comment. + + Tst : Use is() where it's relevant. + + Tst : t/16-huf.t now really tests interaction with H::U::FH. + +0.12 2008-02-07 18:15 UTC + + Fix : POD error. Thanks to Chris Williams (BinGOs) for the quick + feedback. + +0.11 2008-02-07 17:55 UTC + + Add : Copy callbacks now receive the current key/index in $_[2]. + The current value/element is now in $_[3]. + + Chg : The trigger of copy magic on list assignment with perls greater + than 5.10.0 was caused by uvar magic. Hence, + VMG_COMPAT_HASH_LISTASSIGN_COPY was removed. Use VMG_UVAR + instead. + + Fix : Build failures on patched perls. + + Tst : Added missing exported symbols to 01-import.t. + +0.10 2008-02-04 11:30 UTC + + Add : New script : samples/vm_vs_tie.pl, that benchmarks our uvar + magic versus tied hashes. + + Add : The VMG_COMPAT_* constants can be used from userspace to check + perl magic abilities. + + Fix : Callbacks that returned undef made us croak, breaking the + variable behaviour (regression test in 14-callbacks.t). + + Fix : uvar callbacks weren't tested for non-NULL-ity before being + called (regression test in 28-uvar.t). + + Tst : Fix typo in 25-copy.t that prevented Tie::Hash tests to be ran. + +0.09 2008-02-02 11:30 UTC + + Doc : Explicitely say that uvar callbacks are safely ignored for + non-hashes. + + Doc : Document caveats and fix the usual set of typos. + + Fix : vmg_dispell() didn't check if the ext magic were ours when + counting wizards that have uvar callbacks, resulting in a + possible memory misread. + + Fix : getdata() now returns directly the data object, and no longer a + copy. This caused a leak. + + Tst : Prefix author tests by 9*-. + + Tst : New optional author test : 95-portability-files.t, that uses + Test::Portability::Files when it's present. + + Tst : New test : 14-self.t, that tests application of magic on the + wizard itself. + + Tst : Move Hash::Util::FieldHash tests out of 11-multiple.t to + 15-huf.t. + +0.08 2008-02-01 16:55 UTC + + Add : copy magic for tied arrays/hashes. + + Add : local magic. + + Add : uvar magics : fetch, store, exists, delete for hashes. + +0.07_* 2008-01 + Internal development versions. + 0.06 2007-11-20 10:10 UTC + Chg : 5.7.3 is now officially required. + Fix : "data" test failures on 5.8.{0,2}.
