ChangeLog for Netscape History modules 3.00 neilb 2-august-1999 Folded in patch from Andreas Koenig , which enables Netscape::History to work with Berkeley DB 2. Removed the use vars for NETSCAPE_HISTORY. Trying to set it will now result in a warning, assuming you're use'ing strict. Switched to the VERSION hack to use the cvs Revision for module version numbers. The VERSION of Netscape::History is used as the distribution version. Bumped revision up to 3.00, the change to work with DB 2 would seem to warrant this. 2.02 neilb 08-may-1998 Added a get_url() method to the Netscape::History module: $NHurl = $history->get_url( URL ); This was suggested by Dave Steiner . Added a test-case to the test-suite. Small tidy up to the documentation for the next_url() method, which had a description based on an older version. 2.01 neilb 22-mar-1998 Removed the need for the NETSCAPE_VERSION variable kludge. Jimmy Aitken pointed out that we can just check the size of the data under each key, and determine perl-URL whether it is using the pre-v4 or post-v4 format. Added an add_url() method to Netscape::History, which can take either a Netscape::HistoryURL, or a text URL (URI::URL as well). This was suggested by Jarkko Hietaniemi . Added a testsuite 2.00 rit + neilb 04-Sep-1997 The format of the database has changed - more information is stored for each URL. Updated both modules to provide access to the new info. The old method (visit_time()) is supported for backwards compatibility. You have to set $Netscape::History::NETSCAPE_VERSION to the major version of the Netscape you're running, so that the modules know how to interpret the history database entries. 1.002 neilb 15-Feb-1997 The constructor now takes an optional argument: the full path for the Netscape history database. If not specified, then it will default to $HOME/.netscape/history.db. Suggested by Greg Paris. Removed %OVERLOAD from the use vars qw() line in HistoryURL.pm 1.001 neilb 30-Jan-1997 We were using the deprecated %OVERLOAD mechanism, which no longer works with the most recent releases of Perl. Changed to use the new mechanism, "use overload ...". 1.000 neilb First version
