This is hopefully fixed now. Changed cygwin default to x11 (native MSWin32 port still does not work). New There's now an "examples" directory containing some useful scripts previously been elsewhere in the distribution. Documentation Documented ROText key bindings. New README for Strawberry Perl. Tests Prevent Event mini tests to be run when the rest of Tk is not tested, to avoid insignificant PASSes at cpantesters. More tests marked as TODO or SKIP. Tk-804.028_500 release (2008-10-01) ---------------------- Fixes Security fix for GIF reader (CVE-2006-4484, report and patch by Anicka Bernathova) Make sure Tk::MsgBox is not displayed before calling Show() Solved problems with fileevent on 64bit architectures (this also fixes a problem with POE) Makefile.PL updates (auto-creation of META.yml, added LICENSE, exit cleanly if prereqs are missing --- this is for cpan testers) Fixed typo in Tk::FBox http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=31989 Added different location of rgb.txt on Mac OS X 10.5.1 systems Fixed a makedepend issue, reported by marek.rouchal A BusyRecurse issue [rt.cpan.org #32858] Fixed Tk::ColorEditor problem with OpenBSD (another rgb.txt location) clipboardGet was documented, but did not work (note that clipboard("get") always worked) Tk::After::Cancelled needs also a dummy cancel() method Fixed event handling for newer X servers http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=38746 Permission issue [rt.cpan.org #39038] Support for changed regexp-related functions and structures in perl 5.11.x.

Tests Tests for signal handling (testing LangAsyncCheck introduced earlier) Various skips and $TODOs for broken (?) window managers and slow connections (for example -xscrollcommand-related, floating-point precision-related, signal availability and many more ...) Tk-804.028 release (2007-12-18) ------------------ Tests Fixed some test problems. Tk-804.027_502 release (2007-12-04) ---------------------- New features Merged with CPAN version of Tk::Tree Tk::Animation now reads delay and disposal information from GIF file (experimental, may change, needs an installed Image::Info) Fixes Make sure canvas methods are really accessible in OnDestroy.

The complete log of changes can be get using svn log https://svn.perl.org/modules/Tk/trunk Tk-804.027_500 release (2007-02-11) ---------------------- Compiles and passes tests on FreeBSD 6.1 + perl5.8.8 + fontconfig 2.3.2 FreeBSD 6.1 + bleadperl + fontconfig 2.3.2 Linux (Debian) + perl5.8.8 Windows 2000 + Strawberry Perl 5.8.8 alpha 2 Mac OS X 10.4 Solaris 10 + perl5.8.4 At some earlier point, there were successful builds with cygwin 1.5.x + perl5.8.7 + fontconfig (X11 build only) Solaris 8 Linux (RedHat 8.0) + perl5.8.0 New features The undocumented method font('subfonts') returns now more diagnostics. Library upgrades: libpng from 1.2.5 to 1.2.12 zlib from 1.1.4 to 1.2.3 It's possible to use binary (and not anymore base64 encoded) -data for GIF files. New -cancel_button option for Tk::DialogBox Fixes gedi accepts now X11 command line options. Encode.pm is specified as a PREREQ_PM. Fixed slow listbox itemconfigure. Fixed array return of Tk::Text::get method. Fixed Tk::BrowseEntry problem with -label* options, see http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=590170 Introduced LangAsyncCheck, which fixes http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=23879 Fixed http://bugs.activestate.com/show_bug.cgi?id=40231 (missing default button indicator on win32 for Tk::DialogBox widgets) Fixed http://bugs.activestate.com/show_bug.cgi?id=40217 (wm close window button does not call the default button) Fixed non-working Balloon attachments to individual menu items, see http://board.perl-community.de/cgi-bin/ikonboard/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=3;t=665 As a side effect, there is now a new method Tk::Menu::MasterMenu for getting the master menu of a cloned menu. Adjuster now works in DialogBoxes, see http://groups.google.de/group/comp.lang.perl.tk/browse_frm/thread/5366757a4c6cd844/8ff9d1745d2b75b8 Fixed memory leak in after* callbacks, see http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=41130 Fixed Tk:: FBox to treat special files like sockets, pipes as files, not as directories. Fixed -at/-before/-after problem with Tk::HList. Workaround for 'selection conversion left too many bytes unconverted' aborts. Documentation New Pod for Tk::MsgBox. Created a CAVEATS section in Tk::Image for the FAQ about memory leaks and images. Added missing L<...> links. Some minor Pod fixes. Tests Make sure that tests won't be run if no X11 is running to prevent unnecessary cpantesters reports. New test for Text widget (t/text.t) New test for scripts (t/exefiles.t) New test for Tk::Adjuster (t/adjuster.t) More Tk::FBox tests (e.g. chooseDirectory ...) Tests are now more robust if another application has the global grab (see catch_grabs in TkTest.pm). Tk-804.027-p4.patch.gz (2006-11-26) ---------------------- Compiles and passes tests on FreeBSD 6.1 + perl5.8.8 + fontconfig 2.3.2 FreeBSD 6.1 + bleadperl + fontconfig 2.3.2 Linux Debian + perl5.8.8 + fontconfig 2.4.1 Solaris 8 + gcc-4.0.3 + perl-5.8.8 + fontconfig-2.4.1 (with two test errors in font.t) I also had success with compiling under recent cygwin using the x11 libraries a few days earlier. Fixes XFT works now with recent fontconfig, no core dumps anymore. Fix for segfault in t/regexp.t with perl 5.9.x. See also http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2006-02/msg00748.html for a similar issue. Workaround for core dumps when using -font=>undef. Fixed wrong usage of $#{@...} which does not work anymore in bleadperl. Fixed Tk::Text movements wordstart and wordend in unicode content. Better handling of undef in BrowseEntry widgets. Bug reported by Puetz Kevin A. A couple of compilation warning fixes. Tests Continued text.t conversion. More tests in font.t. Fixed failing tests if no windows manager (under X11) is running. Fixed some false test failures in listbox.t (font detection was wrong). Disabled fork.t and fileevent.t on cygwin (same like MSWin32). Tk-804.027-p3.patch.gz (2006-11-20) ---------------------- Compiles and passes tests on FreeBSD 6.1 + perl5.8.8 + xorg 6.9.x + various window managers (fvwm2, twm, metacity ...) Linux RedHat 8.0 + perl5.8.0 (one test failure in leak.t) Linux RedHat 8.0 + perl5.8.7 MSWin32 + Strawberry Perl (5.8.8) There are some test failures with bleedperl, most of them Tie::Watch-related, which will be fixed in a next version of the patch. Incompatible changes Return values of some Tk::Wm methods (e.g. aspect, wmGrid, iconposition, resizable ...) were changed from returning tclish lists (e.g. "1 2 3 4") to perlish lists (1,2,3,4). I believe the return values of these methods are rarely used. Tk::Wm::wmTracing needs argument for setting on/off, without argument just return the current value. New features The newest tkUnixWm.c from Tcl/Tk is now in the Perl/Tk code. This adds (experimental?) support for wm attributes -topmost, -zoomed, -fullscreen and other _NET_WM features (iconphoto) under Unix/X11. Tk::Wm::stackorder was missing in Perl/Tk. widget demonstration has a Ctrl-Q key binding. ptksh: x is an alias for d (like in the perl debugger). ptksh: use bold font for prompt. Tk::Text: pasting selection with middle mouse sets cursor position now. This is consistent with behaviour in other toolkits. Tk::Widget: translated UnderlineAmpersand etc. functions. Tk::MsgBox: again in Tk, completely new translation from the Tcl/Tk original. Looks nicer and behaves better than messageBox through Tk::DialogBox. Fixes Fixed crashes of Perl/Tk applications when Gtk/Gnome applications were started. See http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=16053 ptksh is not slow anymore when popping up history. ptksh: use fixed font for text area. Tk::FBox may handle paths with high-bit set. Image and bitmap filenames with high-bit set work now. See http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.perl.tk/msg/865b56226af23f7c Minor Tk::TextList fixes, but still most tests fail. Fixed some menu problems, see http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=15677, http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=6166 Title of tearoff menus now set correctly. ptked may be started without initial filename. gedi works again. Fixed some core dumps. Tk::Listbox insert/delete does not leak memory anymore (well, not that much). See http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=12466 Building on RedHat systems works now, see http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=6708 Tk::NoteBook fix for pages method, see http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8567 Tk::Canvas fix for -state => hidden issue, see http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=4677 Documentation Tk::Widget::Walk is now documented. Corrected installation path for Tk::Menu::Item. Fixed invalid Pod syntax. Tests Converted some tests from Test to Test::More Enable unicode tests where possible. Make all tests working with XFT=1. New tests, converted from the Tcl counterparts: canvas.t, wm-tcl.t, text.t (latter not completed yet) 00wmcheck.t: show user's window manager before starting tests. (Almost) no test should request user positioning windows (for old window managers like twm). Some wm-dependent tests were marked as TODO tests. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Within each 'release' time advances down the file, but most recent release is at the top.
