4 + Doc : Explicitely say that uvar callbacks are safely ignored for
6 + Doc : Document caveats and fix the usual set of typos.
7 + Fix : vmg_dispell() didn't check if the ext magic were ours when
8 counting wizards that have uvar callbacks, resulting in a
9 possible memory misread.
10 + Fix : getdata() now returns directly the data object, and no longer a
11 copy. This caused a leak.
12 + Tst : Prefix author tests by 9*-.
13 + Tst : New optional author test : 95-portability-files.t, that uses
14 Test::Portability::Files when it's present.
15 + Tst : New test : 14-self.t, that tests application of magic on the
17 + Tst : Move Hash::Util::FieldHash tests out of 11-multiple.t to
20 0.08 2008-02-01 16:55 UTC
21 + Add : copy magic for tied arrays/hashes.
23 + Add : uvar magics : fetch, store, exists, delete for hashes.
26 Internal development versions.

29 + Chg : 5.7.3 is now officially required.
30 + Fix : "data" test failures on 5.8.{0,2}.
31 + Fix : Drand01() vs rand().

34 + Fix : 5.10.0_RC1 compatibility fix.
36 0.04 2007-08-28 12:25 UTC
37 + Chg : s/require (XSLoader)/use $1/.
38 + Fix : Tests are now strict.
39 + Fix : Complete dependencies.

42 + Add : Passing the signature of an already defined magic to wizard()
43 now returns the corresponding magic object.
44 + Add : You can pass the numeric signature as the wizard argument of
45 cast(), dispell() and getdata().
46 + Add : Any argument specified after the wizard (or the signature) in a
47 call to cast() is now passed to the private data constructor in
49 + Chg : $_[0] is now always a reference to the magic variable in all
50 callbacks. The reason for changing from the previous behaviour
51 is that one may want to apply the same magic to a plain scalar
52 and to a scalar reference, and needs a way to distinguish
53 between them in the callback (say, ref()).
54 + Fix : Wizard object destruction used not to free the signature.
56 0.02 2007-07-27 13:50 UTC
57 + Fix : In response to test report 548152 :
58 Newx() and SvMAGIC_set() not present on older perls.
59 + Fix : In response to test report 548275 :
60 Since perl 5.9.5, 'clear' magic is invoked when an array is
61 undefined (bug #43357). Moreover, 'len' magic is no longer
62 called by pushing an element since perl 5.9.3.
63 + Fix : Missing glob test in MANIFEST.
