Announcing another CPAN developers release in the run up to the coming PDL-2.005001 stable release this March.
This is the first CPAN appearance of PDL using the newly standardized VERSION number: a single decimal point string followed by eval to convert to a floating point value. It is believed that this change will not affect the use of the various dependency-based tools as far as installation of PDL. If this is not the case, please let us know so we can resolve any issues.

Chris Release Notes for PDL 2.004011_011 -------------------------- General Notes: +--------------------------------------------------------+ | WARNING! | | This release uses an experimental version of the | | PDL::NiceSlice module based on Filter::Simple that | | is being debugged for platform and module version | | issues. To use the legacy code, just set your | | PDL_NICESLICE_ENGINE environment variable to the | | value Filter::Util::Call instead of Filter::Simple | | | +--------------------------------------------------------+ * Another quick CPAN developers release - It is a snapshot of the current git development tree and everything may not work correctly or have complete documentation. - These release notes may not be fully complete. Please see Changes (from the git log) for full details. - All tests may not pass, especially ones corresponding to issues in Known_problems. - Manual build/install is recommended although the cpan shell may be used by specifying the distribution path rather than just the module name, e.g.: cpan> get CHM/PDL-2.004011_011.tar.gz cpan> make CHM/PDL-2.004011_011.tar.gz cpan> test CHM/PDL-2.004011_011.tar.gz cpan> look CHM/PDL-2.004011_011.tar.gz Highlights: * Switch PDL distribution version numbers to single decimal point string representation as discussed in http://www.dagolden.com/index.php/369/version-numbers-should-be-boring/ * Fix compatibility issue with builds for perl 5.8.x _______________________________________________ Perldl mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.jach.hawaii.edu/mailman/listinfo/perldl
