212 - IO::Dir
213 - IO::Poll
214
215 o IO::Socket
216 - Changed new to call autoflush on the new socket

218 - IO::Socket::INET default to protocol 'tcp'
219
220 o IO::File

222
223 o IO::Handle
224 - Removed use of AutoLoader for constants, constants are
225 now defined as constant XS subs
226 - Added fsync, but will not be avaliable for use
227 unless HAS_FSYNC is defined, perls configure does not define
228 this yet.

230 contains an AUTOLOAD sub in it's ISA hier
231
232 o IO::Seekable

234

236 - Patched IO.xs with patch from Chip for setvbuf warning

238
239 o Misc
240 - Fixed IO::Socket::configure, it was not passing $arg to domain
241 specific package
242 - Changed all $fh variables in IO::Handle to $io and all $fh
243 variables in IO::Socket to $sock as Chip suggested
244 - Fixed usage messages to be consistant
245
246*** Release 1.15

251 o Modified IO.xs so that DESTROY gets called on IO::File
252 objects that were created with IO::File->new_tmpfile
253 o Modified the domain2pkg code in IO::Socket so that it
254 does not use blessd refs
255 o Created a new package IO::Pipe::End so that pipe specific
256 stuff can be moved out of IO::Handle.
257 o Added Ilya's OS/2 changes to Pipe.pm and io_pipe.t
258
259 o These changes happened somtime before the release of 1.15

281 if the socket is connected
282

284
285Mon 11 Sep 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr

288 on a partly initialised connection
289 o Changed IO.xs to use Perlio
290 o Modified usage message to report correct package
291 o Added IO::File::new changes from Chip, to allow PERM to be passed
292 o Added sysread and syswrite methods to IO::Handle
293 o Updated documentation
294 o Fixed a bug in IO::Select that caused a hang if the last handle
295 was removed.
296 o Added count method to IO::Select
297 o Renamed and modified tests so that they can be copied into the
298 perl distribution
299 o Added fcntl and ioctl methods to IO::Handle
300
301Thu 25 Jul 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
302
303 o It is now not necessary to call the domain sub-classes of
304 IO::Socket. when connect is called it notes the domain.
305 Domain specific methods, which are normally non-critical, are
306 called via this note-ing.
307 o Added methods to IO::Socket to retrieve the domain, type and
308 protocol of a given socket
309
310Tue 23 Jul 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
311
312 o IO::Socket::connect changed how we do timeouts, as it did not work
313
314 o IO::Handle::new_from_fd removed method call to _ref_fd, which was
315 a leftover from FileHandle
316
317Fri 28 Jun 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
318
319 o Modified IO::Socket::UNIX::configure to default to using a socket
