POE::Test::Loops 1.020 has been released.
I'm concerned about bug 45158 [1] which is blocking a clean install
of POE
on HP-UX.
To summarize, the test POE/Test/Loops/sbk_signal_init.pm is reliyng
on the
assumption that sleep() can work while an alarm() is set, which the
Perl
documentation clearly warns against, and is effectively not working on
HP-UX.
Does replacing sleep(5) with select(undef,undef,undef,5) fix it? I
also asked on the ticket just a few minutes ago. If that works, I'll
patch it up and release 1.021.
Also, why did the version number bump from 1.005 to 1.020 ?
I accidentally bumped the release twice. I originally meant it to be
1.010. QA took longer than expected, and by release time I forgot
that I had already bumped the revision.
This release includes some harsh signals regression tests from POE's
distribution. I expect it to cause new headaches for some POE::Loop
authors. Signals are often painful to deal with.
