Version bump. Needs 5.6.1 testing... Changelog: 1.19 - 31 October 2002 * fixed a problem with t/02zlib.t that was failing with redhat 8. 1.18 - 24 October 2002 * fixed a Win32 problem in t/02zlib.t by changing sysread to read. * zlib 1.0.5 & older doesn't have gzsetparams & gzeof. Added a new variable to config.in to flag an old version of zlib. Split out the tests for gzsetparams into t/05gzsetp.t 1.17 - 22 October 2002 * Moved the test to check the versions of libz & zlib.h into a separate file and added troubleshooting notes to README. * In gzopen, only attempt to call "tell" for normal files. * Broke changes out of README into Changes file. * Replaced internal use of Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH symbol with Z_SYNC_FLUSH. zlib.h says /* will be removed, use Z_SYNC_FLUSH instead */ * Added support for zlib functions inflateSync and deflateParams. * Added support for zlib functions gzeof and gzsetparams. * Added support for access to adler, total_in & total_out * The compress function can now take an optional parameter that allows the compression level to be specified. This mirrors the compress2 function available in zlib. * memGzip doesn't work properly with perl 5.8.0 when it is given UTF-8 data. Bug spotted by Andreas J. Koenig. * Added note about Linux zlib-devel RPM to README. * Fixed recursive build problem on win32 machines. * Fixed problem with the test harness on Mac OS X. Thanks to Carl Johan Berglund for reporting the problem and helping track it down.
Created attachment 6671 [details] Compress-Zlib.tar.bz2
Marking this for later - i.e., as soon as perl 5.8 is unmasked. Need to get through my trouble spots first.
