Changes for version 0.15 - 1999-09-25

  • Win32API-File-0.07 has been added (thanks to Tye McQueen). This module provides low-level access to file and directory functions.
  • Win32-OLE has been upgraded to v0.1101 (thanks to Jan Dubois). Be sure to check out the cool new component browser (needs IE5). Type "perldoc Win32::OLE::NEWS" and/or see OLE/Changes for detailed notes.
  • Win32API-Net has been upgraded to v0.08 (thanks to Bret Giddings). NOTE: There is a POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY in how empty string values are handled in input hashes. See APINet/Changes and the pod documentation for detailed notes.
  • Win32API-Registry has been upgraded to v0.17 (from Tye McQueen). See APIRegistry/Changes for detailed notes.
  • Win32-TieRegistry has been upgraded to v0.23 (from Tye McQueen). See TieRegistry/Changes for detailed notes.
  • Win32-Sound has been upgraded to v0.45 (from Aldo Calpini). The new version supports wave devices and volume controls, and also sports pod documentation.
  • A few bugs in Win32-EventLog have been fixed (thanks to Bret Giddings and Jan Dubois). There is also newer documentation in pod format. NOTE: There is a POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY in the Report() method, which will now use the "Source" and "Computer" fields in the passed hashref if they exist. See EventLog/Changes and the pod documentation for details.
  • A typo in Win32::Console::GenerateCtrlEvent() has been fixed. Documentation in pod format has been added (from Jan Dubois).
  • Win32::NetResource::GetSharedResources() now continues the enumeration when there are "Access denied" errors; on other errors, it enumerates all the resources seen until the point the error occurred.
  • Minor changes in Win32-ODBC from various people have been included. See ODBC/Changes for a summary.
  • Other small changes for Perl 5.005xx compatibility and minor bug fixes round out this release.
