| Summary: System() and background procs w/ piping, redirs, ptys (Unix, Win32) | |
IPC::Run allows you to run and interact with child processes using files, pipes, and pseudo-ttys. Both system()-style and scripted usages are supported and may be mixed. Likewise, functional and OO API styles are both supported and may be mixed. Various redirection operators reminiscent of those seen on common Unix and DOS command lines are provided.

Windows now matches other platforms in that a child calling exit(N) causes
result() to return N and full_result() to return N << 8. On Windows, before
this change, result() was returning N >> 8, and full_result() was returning N.
Programs having workarounds for this may need to condition those workarounds on
$IPC::Run::VERSION.
- #157 - On Windows, avoid hang under IPCRUNDEBUG.
- Refresh "cpanfile" from Makefile.PL, to allow use on Windows.
- #163 - Normalize shebangs to /usr/bin/perl
- Fix or skip all tests recently seen to fail on Windows.
- Include t/result.t in releases.
- #168 - Make full_result() and result() Windows behavior match non-Windows.
* Tue Aug 23 2022 Tina Müller <tina.mueller@suse.com>
- Fix patch IPC-Run-0.89-path.diff (add -p0)

If your applications rely on portability to Windows, see new documentation
sections "argument-passing rules are program-specific" and "batch files". This
release fixes bugs in runs of Windows programs that use standard command line
parsing rules. Runs of non-standard programs may require changes. Notable
non-standard programs include cmd.exe, cscript.exe, and Cygwin programs.
- #140 - skip t/pty.t test on NetBSD too
- Add strict/warnings
- #142 - Follow Windows argument quoting rules
- #146 - allow win32_newlines.t to actually run
- #150 - Make t/pty.t test pass on OpenBSD.
- #148 - Support Win32 commands having nonstandard command line parsing rules
- Support executing Win32 batch files.
- Add IPC::Run::Win32Process, for delivering nonstandard command lines.
- Fix reporting of Win32::Process::Create() errors.
- #156 - On Windows, avoid hang when closing read end of pipe.
- #155 - Ignore known test failure on msys. - t/windows_search_path.t
- Avoid warning with IPCRUNDEBUG, in Windows spawned children.
- Use $^X, not 'perl', in tests.
- Thanks to the New active developer: Noah Misch!
