Revision history for Perl extension Ham::APRS::FAP. 0.01 Wed Feb 16 15:58:47 2005 - original version; created by h2xs 1.22 0.02 Sun Dec 9 22:10:04 EET 2007 - Hessu, OH7LZB - Merged first bunch of aprs.fi enhancements: - Return parser errors in the return hash, instead of printing to STDERR, so that they're more usable. See the 'resultcode' and 'resultmsg' hash entries - resultcode is a machine-readable error code, and 'resultmsg' is the human-readable equivalent. - The result_messages() function returns a hash of all possible resultcodes and their plain english descriptions. - Permit source callsigns to be in lower case - Catch experimental packets (report error) - Catch but ignore telemetry packets (report error) - Accept broken uncompressed location packets with minute > 59.99 in initial regexp parsing, and report a proper error code for them 0.03 Sun Dec 9 23:47:19 EET 2007 - Hessu, OH7LZB - Merged weather parsing code from aprs.fi branch, now parses a good majority of weather packets on the APRS-IS. The data goes in a new wx hash (see keys %{ $rethash->{'wx'} }). 0.04 Sun Dec 9 23:52:14 EET 2007 - Hessu, OH7LZB - Merged the rest of changes in the aprs.fi branch: - The third argument of parseaprs(), $isax25, is now gone and replaced with an options hash, which knows two options 'isax25' and 'accept_broken_mice'. They're used like this: my $ret = parseaprs( $l, $p, 'accept_broken_mice' => 1, 'isax25' => 0 ); The hash is optional, so parseaprs($l, $p); will work for APRS-IS lines. - The new 'accept_broken_mice' option enables parsing of mic-e packets from which some nonprintable characters have been removed. At least aprsd has a bug which replaces them with spaces, and possibly some other software then replaces multiple spaces with a single space. Some data is lost, but the position is still parseable. - Catches more PHG data and the newer PHGR format. It's not really parsed, just passed back in 'phg' field of the hash. 0.05 Wed Dec 12 17:04:31 EET 2007 - Hessu, OH7LZB - Added a lot of unit test cases over the last couple days - over 200 unique test items in 13 files. It isn't complete, though. - Renamed from APRS::Parser to Ham::APRS::FAP (Fabulous APRS Parser) to better align with the CPAN hierarchy, and to avoid clashing with the existing Ham::APRS::Parser) 0.06 Wed Dec 19 17:46:12 EET 2007 - Tapio, OH2KKU - Relaxed non-AX.25 callsign checking, i.e. now accept any alphanumeric "callsign" (including a variable amount of '-' chars) with a maximum total length of 9 characters. - Some cosmectic changes to unit conversions and comment clarifications. 0.07 Wed Dec 19 23:26:52 EET 2007 - Hessu, OH7LZB - Fixed tests. Tapio's changes removed the -0 from source callsigns with an SSID of 0, so I removed it from the destination callsigns too, and changed tests accordingly. 1.00 Wed Dec 19 23:39:55 EET 2007 - Hessu, OH7LZB - Some small POD documentation changes - Bumped version number for initial public release 1.01 Thu Dec 20 00:05:59 EET 2007 - Hessu, OH7LZB - Added Date::Calc in the Makefile.PM required modules list, so that CPAN installations will work properly 1.02 Fri Jan 4 01:29:47 EET 2008 - Hessu, OH7LZB - Fixed bug: Rain over past 24 hours and since midnight were mixed up by the "normal" APRS weather packet parser (thanks DK7IN) - Tuned POD documentation a little bit 1.10 Wed Mar 12 16:23:20 EET 2008 - Hessu, OH7LZB - Committed APRS telemetry parsing code (has been tested on aprs.fi for quite some time now) - Disabled timestamp checking in t/41decode-object.t - the parsed timestamp varies depending on when the parsing code is run, since the timestamp in the APRS packet is not fully specified. 1.11 Wed Mar 12 17:14:14 EET 2008 - Hessu, OH7LZB - Removed accidentally forgotten dependency on Data::Dumper - Documented dependency on the (standard) Math::Trig module in Makefile.PL - Added t/53decode-tlm.t to the distribution, oops
