Upgrade Instruction
|
|
|
|
Here are a few hints for people upgrading from 3.10 or earlier:
|
|
|
|
* The Default Installation Location Is at /usr/bin
|
|
|
|
Also, the man page is at /usr/share/man/man1/reslog.1. This is to follow
|
|
Perl's standard convension, and to avoid breaking ExtUtils::MakeMaker with
|
|
future versions.
|
|
|
|
When you run "perl Makefile.PL" or "perl Build.PL", it will hint a list of
|
|
old files found to be removed. Please delete them manually.
|
|
|
|
If you saved them in other places, you have to delete them yourself.
|
|
|
|
Also, if you have any scripts or cron jobs that are running reslog, remember
|
|
to modify your script for the new reslog location. Of course, you can copy
|
|
reslog to the original location. It will still work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here are a few hints for people upgrading from 3.02 or earlier:
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The Script Name is Changed from reslog.pl to reslog
|
|
|
|
This is obvious. If you have any scripts or cron jobs that are running
|
|
reslog, remember to modify your script for the new name. Of course, you can
|
|
rename reslog to reslog.pl. It will still work.
|
|
|
|
The reason I changed the script and project name is that: A dot "." in
|
|
the project name is not valid everywhere. At least SourceForge don't accept
|
|
it. Besides, "reslog" is enough for a script name under UNIX. The ".pl" file
|
|
name suffix/extension may be convienent for MS-Windows, but MS-Windows users
|
|
won't run it with explorer file name association anyway, and there is a pl2bat
|
|
to convert "reslog" to "reslog.bat", which would make more sense. The only
|
|
disadvantage is that I use UltraEdit, which depends on the file name extension
|
|
for the automatic syntax highlighting rules. But this is not much trouble. I
|
|
can manuall set it anyway.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* You Need Perl 5.8.0 or Above
|
|
|
|
reslog now has threading to speed up resolving, which requires Perl's
|
|
ithreads threading module support that's only available since 5.8.0. You can
|
|
still disable threading if it causes troubles to you, but the code itself need
|
|
it. If you are using a Perl before 5.8.0, please upgrade it. You can run
|
|
"perl -v" to see your current Perl version.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The Default Keep Mode is Now "delete"
|
|
|
|
The documentation said the default keep mode is "delete", but the script
|
|
actually did a "restart". :p This is fixed. If you are running with the
|
|
default keep mode, remember to fix it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The Argument of --keep and --override Options Are Required Now
|
|
|
|
Support for omitting --keep or --override argument is removed. This helps
|
|
avoiding confusion for the log file name and the option arguments.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Specifying STDIN Will No Longer Trigger STDOUT
|
|
|
|
When resolving multiple files, STDIN can output to STDOUT now, with other
|
|
files output to where they should be. Specifying an STDIN will no longer
|
|
automatically trigger outputing everything to STDOUT. If you want to output
|
|
everything to STDOUT, be sure to add the --stdout option.
