The following lists the changes that have been made
for each release of ARSperl.
- 1.61
-
- new utility: example/AddUsersToGroup.pl - bulk add a bunch
of users to a specified group
- new utility: example/DelUsersFromGroup.pl - bulk delete a bunch
of users from a specified group
- fixed various problems with join schema entry-id handling
- fixed uninitialized variable warnings
- fixed bug in indexList returned by ars_GetSchema()
- updated all Get<object> functions so that changeDiary
is fully decoded.
- changed return value of ars_DeleteEntry() so that
ars_DeleteEntry() || die() will work as expected.
- fixed problem in example/Show_ALink.pl
- added/updated helper func: ars_decodeStatusHistory()
- added example/ars_decodeStatusHistory.pl
- fixed ars_GetSchema typo/bug w/regards to adminGroupList
- fixed GetField.pl example so that it decodes everything
- patch for bug in ars_GetServerInfo()
- updated Makefile.PL to dynamically generate the support.h
file based on the ar.h file specified.
- 1.6001 BETA
-
- patch for bug in ars_CreateEntry()
- added ARS32 conditional compilation for AdminExtension
routines (which were removed as of ars3.2 api)
- 1.6000 BETA
-
- removed most of the PPERLC and AWP stuff that was intended
to help the port to ActiveState perl. Use the One True Perl.
- Changed many of the allocations to use perl's memory manager,
except where the structure or element is grown further internally
by ARS, or where the structure is non-trivial to free(). I still
have concerns about some of the un-freed allocations in
supportrev.c, but at least ALL of the demo scripts,
including ARSDoc-1.11 (with small patch submitted to list) now
run, and produce the right results.
- Removed all references to ZEROMEM in favor of perl's Zero, which
is guaranteed to work everywhere, and doesn't need additional logic.
- fixed a couple of small typos, including one in a elliptical
declaration (...) which didn't have a comma separator.
- Changed the logic of CVLD in one place that was attempting to free()
null pointers.
- 1.56

- 1.55
-
- added ars_GetListEntry.pl example to show how to use
customer query-list fields.

(D.J.Adams@soton.ac.uk)
- patched perl_BuildEntryIdList to make it more robust
(Ulrich Pfeifer <pfeifer@wait.de>)
- patched ars_GetCharMenu for bug "GetCharMenu doesn't
return a qualifier for query menus" (D.J.Adams@soton.ac.uk)

- Added ars_MergeEntry.pl example script.
- 1.53

- 1.5206 (beta)

- added refreshCode to GetCharMenu hash
- fixed bug in groupList value change in 1.5205
- 1.5205 (beta)
-
- updated groupList returned by GetSchema() call so that
it contains the correct keywords.
- 1.5204 (beta)
-
- added ars_GetControlStructFields()
- 1.5203 (beta)
-
- beginnings of a WinNT port (not completed yet)
- added "timestamp" to the return hash of GetEscalation()
- added some extra malloc/free debugging stuff
- 1.5202 (beta)
-
- removed some debugging code that was left in
- 1.5201 (beta)
-
- fixed problem in GetEscalation
- 1.52 (beta)
-
- fixed core dump problem due to uninitialized variable(s)
- 1.51 (beta)
-
- fixed some typos/symbol errors. added a missing routine.
- 1.50 (beta)
-
- removed ars_errstr from C code. replaced with ars_errhash.
modified ARS.pm to refer to hash when $ars_errstr is
accessed. $ars_errstr no longer tie'd to main:: package.
- bug fix (Sid Van den Heede) "affecting getting of
displayInstanceList"
- bug fix (James LewisMoss) for ars_GetCharMenu()
- bug fix (Ian Flanigan) for perl_ARIndexStruct()
- modified GetListEntry(), GetEntry(), SetEntry() and
DeleteEntry() to make operations on join schemas
transparent.
- added a ARVerifyUser call to ars_Login so that
ars_Login() || die() will work as one would expect it to.
- added $VERSION to the perl module file.
- added "log to file" action to GetFilter action hash
(requested by D.J.Adams@soton.ac.uk)
- added updated doc tree to main distribution (contributed by
D.J.Adams@soton.ac.uk)
- new functions and doc on new functions and new examples for some
of these new functions.
- altered return value of perl_ARStatusStruct so that it
returns a hash of the various StatusStruct members so that
reversing the operation is simpler. scripts that, for example,
retrieve active link definitions and print them out that previous
expected the {message} key to point to a string will need to
be updated.
- added valueType to the assign structure to assist in
reversing the operation (converting perl to C API assign
structure).
- added displayTag as an optional parameter to ars_LoadQualifier()
so that you can build queries against customized views (that
are stored on the server).
- altered ARError() so that return codes of OK or WARNING don't
signal an error. For example, GetListEntries would return
nothing if you matched more than the max allowed, now it returns
the max allowable number of records and places a warning message
into the error hash.
- 1.46
-
- bug fixes
- ars_MergeEntry() added
- 1.45
-
- minor bug fix to the GetListSchema routine
- 1.44
-

that is on the filter.
- 1.43
-
- fixed some bad pointer/bad free problems
- 1.42
-

-
- fixed the bug in arsperl that caused SetEntry to not always work
correctly. The bug only appeared when you passed that fields in an
array.
