Revision history for Perl extension Getopt::Auto. 1.0 Fri Jan 3 12:33:09 2003 - original version; created by h2xs 1.21 with options -XA -n Getopt::Auto 1.9.0 Thu Dec 3 16:42:08 PST 2009 Completed according to original intent of incomplete version 1.0. Version is '1.9.0' in anticipation of going to 2.0 when bugs are worked out. 1.9.1 Sun Jan 10 15:49:08 PST 2010 Builtin help does not exit 0. Change 'exists' to 'defined' in test 1.9.1 Mon Jan 18 08:28:57 PST 2010 Windows failure in test t/02-internals_magic.t Construct the path using catfile() to avoid the problem of '/' vs '\' 1.9.1 Mon Jan 18 08:31:32 PST 2010 Failures of Spec build on 5.6.x and 5.8.1 Perls Mis-application of each() (see `perldoc -f each`). Result is random. Patch courtesy of Bruce Gray . 1.9.2 Thu Jul 1 16:06:58 PDT 2010 Remove _ from _test_option so that perlcritic does not complain. It is, after all, intended for external use. Fix bug where command line with _no_ options, but args caused objection. In process made the default option type BARE. 1.9.3 Tue Oct 5 11:27:02 PDT 2010 Add automatic help for unregistered options, so that you can avoid having to run the program a second time with --help (or is that -h? Oh, bother!) 1.9.4 Wed Dec 22 15:25:28 PST 2010 Added comments. Tue Jul 26 20:13:22 PDT 2011 Repair for 69822 (=begin/=end stopwords need blank lines) 1.9.5 Tue Jul 26 20:55:31 PDT 2011 Fixed un-commented DB:: Added example for usage() 1.9.6 Thu Jul 28 14:49:26 PDT 2011 Changed directory name (_ > -) to avoid confusion with Simon's original 1.0 Fri Jul 29 15:07:26 PDT 2011 Respond to Windoze failure. Failed test 'Check version'at t/02-internals_magic.t line 88 STDERR is: This is t/02-internals_magic.t version 1.9.4 not: This is t\02-internals_magic.t version 1.9.4 The problem is that Windows apparently takes either '/' or '\' in paths, and what was actually used shows up in caller[1]. The problem of the ambiguity is resolved by stripping out the directory path when making comparisions. The path is irrelevant in any case. Thanks to Perl Monks ikegami and Corion who commented on node_id=917637. 1.9.7 Mon Aug 1 16:54:33 PDT 2011 Found more embedded 't/' - t/01-help.t and t/03-options-split_partial.t
