4 - mod_perl2 support (but not recommended; read docs!)
5 - Lighttpd and Apache2 support (either CGI or FastCGI)
6 - Seperate modules for backend-specific code
7 - Documentation updates
8 - Fix html of default error message
9 - Example plpinfo.plp, modeled after phpinfo
11 3.19 - September 15, 2005:
13 - Send headers when using C<printf> to start output
14 - Do not send headers when C<print>ing multiple empty strings
15 - EncodeURI()/DecodeURI() now accept read-only values
16 - Cleaner and slightly faster code in Entity(), DecodeURI(), and EncodeURI()
17 - Removed (undocumented) function HiddenFields
18 - Tests for a few Functions
19 - Documentation fixes and elaboration
21 3.18 - October 16, 2002:
22 - Fixed the class for tied headers. Content_Type is now really converted to
23 Content-Type, as explained in L<PLP::Fields>
24 - Added some bits to L<PLP::HowTo>
25 - Closing :> is now optional (which is handy for code-only PLP documents that
26 should not send additional whitespace)
28 3.17 - August 21, 2002:
30 - %get is now built on script start, no longer on first access
31 - Apache->request->print is used now under mod_perl, not print (faster)
32 - Small documentation fixes
33 - Setting a header when headers are already sent now tells you where output
39 - Changed compile-time <(...)> includes to use paths relative to the file they
40 are included by. Include() of course still uses paths relative to the current
42 - Added and removed Safe.pm implementation. Safe's reval() crashes Apache on
44 - Removed useless constant in void context in PLP::Functions
45 - Added some documentation
48 - Added caching of scripts. This means using more memory but it also means
49 executing scripts 45-65% faster! (mod_perl only)
50 - Added configurability of caching: PerlSetVar PLPcache On/Off (Default: On)
51 - Changed PLP.pm to use File::Basename and File::Spec
52 - Added recursion protection for compile-time includes (fixed max depth: 128)
56 - Small documentation change
59 - Added documentation:
64 - Added predeclared of hashes for use-strict-users ("our"/"use vars"
65 is no longer necessary for the PLP hashes)
66 - Added plp.vim for vim syntax highlighting to the distribution
67 - Added error reportig to Counter, ReadFile and WriteFile
68 - Changed ReadFile and WriteFile to use lexical filehandles
69 - Changed PLP::Functions to use Fcntl for improved portability
70 - Cleaned up PLP::Fields: removed the PLPdummies
71 - Fixed DELETE, EXISTS and FIRSTKEY in PLP::Tie::Delay (added PLPdummy there)
74 - Fixed strict-violation in PLP.pm that happened only without mod_perl
77 - Fixed all tie-stuff by reverting a change. Symbol.pm's delete_package doesn't
78 delete a package in the way I thought it did.
81 - First standardized module distribution, to allow easy distribution via CPAN
82 - Caution: installation procedure has changed because of that!
83 - Moved all code from plp.cgi to PLP.pm, and made PLP.pm use strict (it was
84 strict compliant, but didn't actually use the pragma).
85 - Added mod_perl handler() for extremely easy installation :)
86 - Added some documentation (perldoc PLP) with installation instructions
87 - Moved a few lines from init() to start()
88 - Added comments in PLP.pm
89 - Uses Symbol.pm to delete the package (Symbol is in the Perl distr.)
92 - Added PLP_END functionality to simulate END { ... } for mod_perl
93 - Fixed header sending in case PLP::Tie::Print->PRINT never happened
94 - Added an override for exit(), to avoid needless debugging output in mod_perl
97 - Fixed a potential bug in PLP::source and PLP::Functions::Counter
100 - $PLP::DEBUG works again (set to 1 for $@ output, 2 for plain text+headers,
102 - $PLP::ERROR is now a subref that can be overridden (April 12: see FAQ for
105 3.03 - April 11, 2002
106 - Removed a bug that made sending alternative headers impossible. Sorry!
107 - By the way, remember that if you want to send headers, the "<:" have to be
108 the very first characters in the file, with no white space in front of it!
110 3.02 - April 11, 2002
111 - Efficiency improvement by caching initialisation in PLP.pm
113 3.01 - April 10, 2002
114 - Bugfixes: include() used strict, fixed some typos, logging
115 - Improved: error reporting
118 - New release, a lot has been done from scratch again, this time following
119 strict rules and mod_perl compatible. It's also a lot faster than 2.x.
