4.30 2016-06-08
[ FEATURES ]
- Add SameSite support to Cookie handling (thanks to pangyre)
[ INTERNALS ]
- The MultipartBuffer package has been renamed to CGI::MultipartBuffer.
This has been done in a way to ensure any $MultipartBuffer package
variables are still set correctly in CGI::MultipartBuffer. if you are
explicitly using MultipartBuffer in a form such as:
MultipartBuffer->new
your code will break. you should be calling:
CGI->new->new_MultipartBuffer( $boundary,$length );
to ensure the correctly package is called. if you are extending the
MultipartBuffer package though use of ISA or base (or parent) then you
will need to update your code to use CGI::MultipartBuffer
- fake using strict and warnings to appease CPANTS Kwalitee

http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/LEEJO/CGI-4.21/Changes
Mon Jun 15 14:00:00 2015 jweberhoferAATTweberhofer.at
- Removed some old stuff needed to build on older distributions
Tue May 26 14:00:00 2015 jweberhoferAATTweberhofer.at
- fixed build-dependencies
- updated to 4.14
[ RELEASE NOTES ]
- This release removes the AUTOLOAD and compile optimisations from CGI.pm
that were introduced into CGI.pm twenty (20) years ago as a response to
its large size, which meant there was a significant compile time penalty.
- This optimisation is no longer relevant and makes the code difficult to
deal with as well as making test coverage metrics incorrect. Benchmarks
show that advantages of AUTOLOAD / lazy loading / deferred compile are
less than 0.05s, which will be dwarfed by just about any meaningful code
in a cgi script. If this is an issue for you then you should look at
running CGI.pm in a persistent environment (FCGI, etc)
- To offset some of the time added by removing the AUTOLOAD functionality
the dependencies have been made runtime rather than compile time. The
POD has also been split into its own file. CGI.pm now contains around
4000 lines of code, which compared to some modules on CPAN isn\'t really
that much
- This essentially deprecates the -compile pragma and ->compile method. The
- compile pragma will no longer do anything, whereas the ->compile method
will raise a deprecation warning. More importantly this also REMOVES the
- any pragma because as per the documentation this pragma needed to be
\"used with care or not at all\" and allowing arbitrary HTML tags is almost
certainly a bad idea. If you are using the -any pragma and using arbitrary
tags (or have typo\'s in your code) your code will
*BREAK
*
- Although this release should be back compatible (with the exception of any
code using the -any pragma) you are encouraged to test it throughly as if
you are doing anything out of the ordinary with CGI.pm (i.e. have bugs
that may have been masked by the AUTOLOAD feature) you may see some issues.
- References: GH #162, GH #137, GH #164
- updated to 4.13
[ RELEASE NOTES ]
- CGI::Pretty is now DEPRECATED and will be removed in a future release.
Please see GH #162 (https://github.com/leejo/CGI.pm/issues/162) for more
information and discussion (also GH #140 for HTML function deprecation
discussion: https://github.com/leejo/CGI.pm/issues/140)
[ TESTING ]
- fix t\\rt-84767.t for failures on Win32 platforms related to file paths
- version 4.12 has not been released
Thu Dec 4 13:00:00 2014 ncutlerAATTsuse.com
- updated to 4.11
4.11 2014-12-02
[ SPEC / BUG FIXES ]
- more hash key ordering bugs fixed in HTML attribute output (GH #158,
thanks to Marcus Meissner for the patch and test case)
[ REFACTORING ]
- escapeHTML (and unescapeHTML) have been refactored to use the functions
exported by the HTML::Entities module (GH #157)
- change BUILD_REQUIRES to TEST_REQUIRES in Makefile.PL as these are test
dependencies not build dependencies (GH #159)
[ DOCUMENTATION ]
- replace any remaining uses of indirect object notation (new Object) with
the safer Object->new syntax (GH #156)
4.10 2014-11-27
[ SPEC / BUG FIXES ]
- favour -content-type arg in header if -type and -charset options are also
passed in (GH #155, thanks to kaoru for the test case). this change also
sorts the hash keys in the rearrange method in CGI::Util meaning the order
of the arrangement will always be the same for params that have multiple
aliases. really you shouldn\'t be passing in multiple aliases, but this will
make it consistent should you do that
[ DOCUMENTATION ]
- fix some typos
4.09 2014-10-21
[ RELEASE NOTES ]
- with this release the large backlog of issues against CGI.pm has been
cleared. All fixes have been made in the versions 4.00 and above so if
you are upgrading from 3.
* you should thoroughly test your code against
recent versions of CGI.pm
- an effort has been made to retain back compatibility against previous
versions of CGI.pm for any fixes made, however some changes related to
the handling of temporary files may have consequences for your code
- please refer to the RELEASE NOTES for version 4.00 and above for all
recent changes and file an issue on github if there has been a regression.
- please do
*NOT
* file issues regarding HTML generating functions, these
are no longer being maintained (see perldoc for rationale)
[ SPEC / BUG FIXES ]
- tweak url to DTRT when the web server is IIS (RT #89827 / GH #152)
- fix temporary file handling when dealing with multiple files in MIME uploads
(GH #154, thanks to GeJ for the test case)
4.08 2014-10-18
[ DOCUMENTATION ]
- note that calling headers without a -charset may lead to a nonsensical
charset being added to certain content types due to the default and the
workaround
- remove documentation stating that calls to escapeHTML with a changed
charset force numeric encoding of all characters, because that does not
happen
- documentation tweaks for calling param() in list context and the addition
of multi_param()
[ SPEC / BUG FIXES ]
- don\'t sub out PATH_INFO in url if PATH_INFO is the same as SCRIPT_NAME
(RT #89827)
- add multi_param() method to allow calling of param() in list context
without having to disable the $LIST_CONTEXT_WARN flag (see RELEASE NOTES
for version 4.05 on why calling param() in list context could be a bad
thing)
4.07 2014-10-12
[ RELEASE NOTES ]
- please see changes for v4.05
[ TESTING ]
- typo and POD fixes, add test to check POD and compiles
4.06 2014-10-10
[ RELEASE NOTES ]
- please see changes for v4.05
[ DOCUMENTATION ]
- make warning on list context call of ->param more lenient and don\'t
warn if called with no arguments
4.05 2014-10-08
[ RELEASE NOTES ]
- this release includes
*significant
* refactoring of temporary file
handling in CGI.pm. See \"Changes in temporary file handling\" in perldoc
- this release adds a warning for when the param method is called
in list context, see the Warning in the perldoc for the section
\"Fetching the value or values of a single named parameter\" for why
this has been added and how to disable this warning
[ DOCUMENTATION ]
- change AUTHOR INFORMATION to LICENSE to please Kwalitee
[ TESTING ]
- t/arbitrary_handles.t to check need for patch in RT #54055, it
turns out there is no need - the first argument to CGI->new can
be an arbitrary handle
- add test case for incorrect unescaping of redirect headers
(RT #61120)
- add tests for the handle method (RT #85074, thanks to TONYCAATTcpan.org)
[ SPEC / BUG FIXES ]
- don\'t set binmode on STDOUT/STDERR/STDIN if a none standard layer
is already set on them on none UNIX platforms (RT #57524)
- make XForms:Model data accesible through POSTDATA/PUTDATA param
(RT #75628)
- prevent corruption of POSTDATA/PUTDATA when -utf8 flag is used and use
tempfiles to handle this data (RT #79102, thanks anonymous)
- unescape request URI
*after
* having removed the query string to prevent
removal of ? chars that are part of the original URI (and were encoded)
(RT #83265)
- fix q( to qq( in CGI::Carp so $AATT is correct interpolated (RT #83360)
- don\'t call ->query_string in url unless -query is passed (RT #87790)
(optimisation and fits the current documented behaviour)
4.04 2014-09-04
[ RELEASE NOTES ]
- this release removes some long deprecated modules/functions and
includes refactoring to the temporary file handling in CGI.pm. if
you are doing anything out of the ordinary with regards to temp
files you should test your code before deploying this update as
temp files may no longer be stored in previously used locations
[ REMOVED / DEPRECATIONS ]
- startform and endform methods removed (previously deprecated, you
should be using the start_form and end_form methods)
- both CGI::Apache and CGI::Switch have been removed as these modules
1) have been deprecated for
*years
*, and 2) do nothing whatsoever
[ SPEC / BUG FIXES ]
- handle multiple values in X-Forwarded-Host header, we follow the
logic in most other frameworks and take the last value from the list
(RT #54487)
- reverse the order of TEMP dir placement for WINDOWS: TEMP > TMP > WINDIR
(RT #71799, thanks to jeffAATTmath.tntech.edu), this returns the behaviour
to pre e24d04e9bc5fda7722444b02fec135d8cc2ff488 but with the undefined
fix still in place
- refactor CGITempFile::find_tempdir to use File::Spec->tmpdir
(related: RT #71799)
- fix warnings when QUERY_STRING has empty key=value pairs (RT #54511)
- pad custom 500 status response messages to > 512 for MSIE (RT #81946)
- make Vars tied hash delete method return the value deleted from the hash
making it act like perl\'s delete (RT #51020)
[ TESTING ]
- add .travis.yml (https://travis-ci.org)
- test case for RT #53966 - disallow filenames with ~ char
- test case for RT #55166 - calling Vars to get the filename does not return
a filehandle, so this cannot be used in the call to uploadinfo, also
update documentation for the uploadInfo to show that ->Vars should not be
used to get the filename for this method
- fix t/url.t to pass on Win32 platforms that have the SCRIPT_NAME env
variable set (RT #89992)
- add procedural call tests for upload and uploadInfo to confirm these work
as should (RT #91136)
[ DOCUMENTATION ]
- tweak perldoc for -utf8 option (RT #54341, thanks to Helmut Richter)
- explain the HTML generation functions should no longer be used and that
they may be deprecated in a future release
4.03 2014-07-02
[ REMOVED / DEPRECATIONS ]
- the -multiple option to popup_menu is now IGNORED as this did not
function correctly. If you require a menu with multiple selections
use the scrolling_list method. (RT #30057)
[ SPEC / BUG FIXES ]
- support redirects in mod_perl2, or fall back to using env variable
for up to 5 redirects, when getting the query string (RT #36312)
- CGI::Cookie now correctly supports the -max-age argument, previously
if this was passed the value of the -expires argument would be used
meaning there was no way to supply
*only
* this argument (RT #50576)
- make :all actually import all methods, except for :cgi-lib, and add
:ssl to the :standard import (RT #70337)
[ DOCUMENTATION ]

timestamp in messages (RT #82364, EDAVISAATTcpan.org)
- multipart_init and multipart_start learn -charset option (RT #22737)
[ SPEC / BUG FIXES ]
- Support multiple cookies when passing an ARRAY ref with -set-cookie
(RT #15065, JWILLIAMSAATTcpan.org)

Fix failures in t/tmpdir.t when run as root
https://github.com/markstos/CGI.pm/issues/22, RT#80659)
Made it possible to force a sorted order for things like hash
attributes so that tests are not dependent on a particular hash
ordering. This will be required in modern perls which will
change the ordering per process. (Yves, RT#80659)

- update to 3.55:
+ [THINGS THAT MAY BREAK YOUR CODE]
url() was fixed to return \"PATH_INFO\" when it is explicitly requested
with either the path=>1 or path_info=>1 flag.
If your code is running under mod_rewrite (or compatible) and you are
calling self_url() or you are calling url() and passing path_info=>1,
These methods will actually be returning PATH_INFO now, as you have
explicitly requested, or has self_url() has requested on your behalf.
The PATH_INFO has been omitted in such URLs since the issue was
introduced in the 3.12 release in December, 2005.
This bug is so old your application may have come to depend on it or
workaround it. Check for application before upgrading to this release.
+ The DELETE HTTP verb is now supported (RT#52614)
+ [NEW FEATURES]
- A new option to set $CGI::Carp::TO_BROWSER = 0, allows you to
explicitly exclude a particular scope from triggering printing to
the browser when fatatlsToBrowser is set. (RT#62783)
- The
