Changes for 0.15_04 Mon Sep 22 15:08:49 2008 ================================================= * Address: #37649: Feature request: Support lftp File::Fetch now supports lftp, with one minor caveat: it uses a temporary file to store the commands for lftp, as they are multiline commands. Without this, we run into portability issues with 'special' characters on various platforms, like ; and &. Changes for 0.15_03 Sun Jul 13 15:56:41 2008 ================================================= * Add -q to curl, to inhibit the reading of .curlrc, which may interfere with the options we pass ourselves.

Changes for 0.13_03 2007-11-04 21:32:40 ================================================= * Restore OS specific file:// URI behaviour. The RFC's specify that the url definition is host OS specific, so what a url means on one machine will mean something different on another. VMS is now treated according to RFC 1738 (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1738.html). Changes for 0.13_02 Sun Nov 4 10:38:40 CET 2007 ================================================= * Apply a perl 5.5.x compatibility fix. Users with perl 5.6.0 or higher do not need to upgrade.

Changes for 0.09_02 Sun Jan 7 18:44:09 CET 2007 ================================================ * The quotation as done in 0.09_01 doesn't play nicely with Win32 and IPC::Run. IPC::Run is therefor disabled during the fetch() call. * Remove File::Fetch::Item as a class. All objects are now plain File::Fetch objects. This has no impact on user-end code, except code that checks the class of objects. * URI encoding is not always clear or trivial. Add a FAQ entry about it. * Add $ff->output_file as accessor, which is the requested file, stripped from query parameters. * Errors are now stored per object rather than class wide. Changes for 0.09_01 Wed Jan 3 17:17:31 CET 2007 ================================================ * address: #23864: File:Fetch does not use quotation marks while using wget: * the handlers for lynx, wget, curl and rsync now quote their URIs. Changes for 0.08 Wed Jul 5 13:56:36 CEST 2006 ================================================ * address: #18942: unproper handling of http errors in external handlers: * the wget handler, on a failed attempt, now unlinks its outputfile * the curl handler is updated to follow '302 moved' and such like status messages * lynx use is further discouraged, as it doesn't communicate http status messages back to the caller at all. * address #11483: File::Fetch 0.07 cannot do an FTP fetch on Win32. FTP fetching using Net::FTP should now work properly on win32. * update test suite so it runs safely under PERL_CORE Changes for 0.07 Thu Dec 23 09:31:00 PST 2004 ================================================ * Add $TIMEOUT to specify the network timeout Changes for 0.06 Thu Dec 16 03:21:00 PST 2004 ================================================ * Add rsync support Changes for 0.05 Fri Jun 18 13:55:51 CEST 2004 ================================================= * Update faq * Silence silly warnings Changes for 0.04 Fri Jun 11 22:40:34 CEST 2004 ================================================= * Add file support using File::Copy Changes for 0.03 Fri Jun 11 20:40:22 CEST 2004 ================================================= * Add I18N support * Add better error handling Changes for 0.02 Sat May 22 14:40:29 CEST 2004 ================================================= * Add an extra 'FAQ' entry * Include a 'use File::Fetch::Item' Changes for 0.01 Tue May 4 15:48:24 CEST 2004 ================================================= * Initial release
