+Revision history for Perl extension ExtUtils::ParseXS.
+
+2.20_01 - Wed Jul 8 12:12:47 EDT 2009
+
+ - Fix XSUsage prototypes for testing [Jan Dubois]
+
+2.20 - Wed Jul 1 13:42:11 EDT 2009
+
+ - No changes from 2.19_04
+
+2.19_04 - Mon Jun 29 11:49:12 EDT 2009
+
+ - Changed tests to use Test::More and added it to prereqs
+
+ - Some tests skip if no compiler or if no dynamic loading
+
+ - INTERFACE keyword tests skipped for perl < 5.8
+
+2.19_03 - Sat Jun 27 22:51:18 EDT 2009
+
+ - Released to see updated results from smoke testers
+
+ - Fix minor doc typo pulled from blead
+
+2.19_02 - Wed Aug 6 22:18:33 2008
+
+ - Fix the usage reports to consistently report package name as well
+ as sub name across ALIAS, INTERFACE and regular XSUBS. [Robert May]
+
+ - Cleaned up a warning with -Wwrite-strings that gets passed into
+ every parsed XS file. [Steve Peters]
+
+ - Allow (pedantically correct) C pre-processor comments in the code
+ snippets of typemap files. [Nicholas Clark]
+
+2.19 - Sun Feb 17 14:27:40 2008
+
+ - Fixed the treatment of the OVERLOAD: keyword, which was causing a C
+ compile error. [Toshiyuki Yamato]
+
+2.18 - Mon Jan 29 20:56:36 2007
+
+ - Added some UNITCHECK stuff, which (I think) makes XS code able to
+ do UNITCHECK blocks. [Nicholas Clark]
+
+ - Changed 'use re "eval";' to 'BEGIN { $^H |= 0x00200000 };' so we
+ can compile re.xs in bleadperl. [Yves Orton]
+
+ - Fix an undefined-variable warning related to 'inout' parameter
+ processing.
+
+2.17 - Mon Nov 20 17:07:27 2006
+
+ - Stacked $filepathname to make #line directives in #INCLUDEs work.
+ [Nicholas Clark]
+
+ - Sprinked dVAR in with dXSARGS, for God-(Jarkko)-knows-what
+ reason. [Jarkko Hietaniemi]
+
+ - Use printf-style formats in Perl_croak() for some significant
+ savings in number of distinct constant strings in the linked
+ binaries we create. [Alexey Tourbin]
+
+ - Don't use 'class' as a variable name in the t/XSTest.xs module,
+ since that's a keyword in C++. [Jarkko Hietaniemi]
+
+2.16 Fri Sep 15 22:33:24 CDT 2006
+
+ - Fix a problem with PREFIX not working inside INTERFACE
+ sections. [Salvador Fandin~o]
+
+2.15 Mon Oct 10 11:02:13 EDT 2005
+
+ - I accidentally left out a README from the distribution. Now it's
+ auto-created from the main documentation in ExtUtils/ParseXS.pm.
+
+2.14 Sat Oct 8 21:49:15 EDT 2005
+
+ - The filehandle for the .xs file was never being properly closed,
+ and now it is. This was causing some Win32 problems with
+ Module::Build's tests, which create a .xs file, process it with
+ ParseXS, and then try to remove it. [Spotted by Randy Sims]
+
+2.13 Mon Oct 3 21:59:06 CDT 2005
+
+ - Integrate a cleanup-related change from bleadperl that somehow
+ never got into this copy. [Steve Hay]
+
+2.12 Wed Aug 24 20:03:09 CDT 2005
+
+ - On Win32, there was a DLL file we create during testing that we
+ couldn't delete unless we closed it first, so testing failed when
+ the deletiong was attempted. This should now work (provided the
+ version of perl is high enough to have DynaLoader::dl_unload_file()
+ - I'm not sure what will happen otherwise). [Steve Hay]
+
+ - Fix a spurious warning during testing about a variable that's used
+ before it's initialized. [Steve Hay]
+
+2.11 Mon Jun 13 23:00:23 CDT 2005
+
+ - Make some variables global, to avoid some "will not stay shared"
+ warnings at compile time. [Rafael Garcia-Suarez]
+
+2.10 Mon May 30 21:29:44 CDT 2005
+
+ - This module is being integrated into the perl core; the regression
+ tests will now work properly when run as part of the core build.
+ [Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes]
+
+ - Added the ability to create output files with a suffix other than
+ ".c", via the new "csuffix" option. This gets the module working
+ on Symbian. [Jarkko Hietaniemi]
+
+ - Added the ability to put 'extern "C"' declarations in front of
+ prototypes. [Jarkko Hietaniemi]
+
+2.09 Sun Mar 27 11:11:49 CST 2005
+
+ - Integrated change #18270 from the perl core, which fixed a problem
+ in which xsubpp can make nested comments in C code (which is
+ bad). [Nicholas Clark]
+
+ - When no "MODULE ... PACKAGE ... PREFIX" line is found, it's now
+ still a fatal error for ParseXS, but we exit with status 0, which
+ is what the old xsubpp did and seems to work best with some modules
+ like Win32::NetAdmin. See RT ticket 11472. [Steve Hay]
+
+2.08 Fri Feb 20 21:41:22 CST 2004
+
+ - Fixed a problem with backslashes in file paths (e.g. C:\Foo\Bar.xs)
+ disappearing in error messages. [Randy Sims, Steve Hay]
+
+ - Did a little minor internal code cleanup in the
+ ExtUtils::ParseXS::CountLines class, now other classes don't poke
+ around in its package variables.
+
+2.07 Sun Jan 25 17:01:52 CST 2004
+
+ - We now use ExtUtils::CBuilder for testing the compile/build phase
+ in the regression tests. It's not necessary to have it for runtime
+ usage, though.
+
+ - Fixed a minor documentation error (look in 'Changes' for revision
+ history, not 'changes.pod'). [Scott R. Godin]
+
+2.06 Fri Dec 26 09:00:47 CST 2003
+
+ - Some fixes in the regression tests for the AIX platform.
+
+2.05 Mon Sep 29 10:33:39 CDT 2003
+
+ - We no longer trim the directory portions from the "#line " comments
+ in the generated C code. This helps cooperation with many editors'
+ auto-jump-to-error stuff. [Ross McFarland]
+
+ - In some cases the PERL_UNUSED_VAR macro is needed to get rid of C
+ compile-time warnings in generated code. Since this eliminates so
+ many warnings, turning on "-Wall -W" (or your platform's
+ equivalent) can once again be helpful. [Ross McFarland]
+
+ - Did a huge amount of variable-scoping cleanup, and it *still*
+ doesn't compile under 'use strict;'. Much progress was made
+ though, and many scoping issues were fixed.
+
+2.04 Thu Sep 4 13:10:59 CDT 2003
+
+ - Added a COPYRIGHT section to the documentation. [Spotted by Ville
+ Skytta]
+
+2.03 Sat Aug 16 17:49:03 CST 2003
+
+ - Fixed a warning that occurs if a regular expression (buried deep
+ within the bowels of the code here) fails. [Spotted by Michael
+ Schwern]
+
+ - Fixed a testing error on Cygwin. [Reini Urban]
+
+2.02 Sun Mar 30 18:20:12 CST 2003
+
+ - Now that we know this module doesn't work (yet?) with perl 5.005,
+ put a couple 'use 5.006' statements in the module & Makefile.PL so
+ we're explicit about the dependency. [Richard Clamp]
+
+2.01 Thu Mar 20 08:22:36 CST 2003
+
+ - Allow -C++ flag for backward compatibility. It's a no-op, and has
+ been since perl5.003_07. [PodMaster]
+
+2.00 Sun Feb 23 16:40:17 CST 2003
+
+ - Tests now function under all three of the supported compilers on
+ Windows environments. [Randy W. Sims]
+
+ - Will now install to the 'core' perl module directory instead of to
+ 'site_perl' or the like, because this is the only place MakeMaker
+ will look for the xsubpp script.
+
+ - Explicitly untie and close the output file handle because ParseXS was
+ holding the file handle open, preventing the compiler from opening
+ it on Win32. [Randy W. Sims]
+
+ - Added an '--output FILENAME' flag to xsubpp and changed ParseXS to use
+ the named file in the #line directives when the output file has an
+ extension other than '.c' (i.e. '.cpp'). [Randy W. Sims]
+
+ - Added conditional definition of the PERL_UNUSED_VAR macro to the
+ output file in case it's not already defined for backwards
+ compatibility with pre-5.8 versions of perl. (Not sure if this is the
+ best solution.) [Randy W. Sims]
+
+
+1.99 Wed Feb 5 10:07:47 PST 2003
+
+ - Version bump to 1.99 so it doesn't look like a 'beta release' to
+ CPAN.pm. No code changes, since I haven't had any bug reports.
+
+ - Fixed a minor problem in the regression tests that was creating an
+ XSTest..o file instead of XSTest.o
+
+
+1.98_01 Mon Dec 9 11:50:41 EST 2002
+
+ - Converted from ExtUtils::xsubpp in bleadperl
+
+ - Basic set of regression tests written
