---------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.11 - 2008-10-10 (EO)
------------
+ Modified DEPEND: sas 1.480 (old 1.0), utils 1.114 (old 1.88)
Version 1.10 - 2003-06-13 (GV)
------------
+ (param.pm) Move the routine that cleans up the command line
inside each of the parameter-related functions. In this manner the
command line is not modified unless a perl task is actually trying
to read one of the parameters. This allows the correct processing
of the --verbosity option to take place.
Version 1.9 - 2003-02-24 (GV)
-----------
+ (error.pm) client initialized changed from ? to ..
Version 1.8 - 2003-02-18 (GV)
-----------
+ (param.pm) add required " to ARGV, so list of parameters are not
correctly identified.
Version 1.7 - 2003-02-12 (GV)
-----------
+ (error.pm) set client to a non empty string, or scripts that use
the module will terminate with an internal error.
Version 1.6 - 2003-02-11 (GV)
-----------
+ (error.pm, param.pm, SAS.pm) update the documentation.
Version 1.5 - 2003-02-10 (GV)
-----------
+ (param.pm) chomp return values or parametsrs end up with a final
'\n'.
Version 1.4 - 2003-02-07 (GV)
-----------
+ (sasparam.cc) do not use vector.at() as this does not exist in
gcc-2.95.3. Use vector.operator[] instead.
+ (param.pm) when sasparam fails exit with an error instead of
continuing.
Version 1.3 - 2003-01-31 (GV)
-----------
+ New implementation of SAs::param.pm and SAS::error.pm. Same perl
interface.
Version 1.2 - 2002-07-11 (GV)
-----------
+ DEPEND on sas.
Version 1.1 - 2002-05-07 (GV)
-----------
+ (Makefile.PL) add dependency to selecor (required by param-2.0)
Version 1.0.1 - 2002-01-30 (JBa)
-----------
+ Fixed the introduction of PERL_POLLUTE,as it was magnifying problems
on linux/perl5.003:
Make sure that old CCFLAGS of Conifgure.pm are not overwritten
Version 1.0 - 2001-12-18 (GV)
-----------
+ Re-uploaded as 1.0.
Version 0.28 - 2001-11-28 (GV)
------------
+ Move -DPERL_POLLUTE to Makefile.PL, instead of using
perlcompatibility.h
Version 0.27 - 2001-11-23 (GV)
------------
+ Makefile.PL: missing include
Version 0.26 - 2001-11-22 (GV)
------------
+ (SWIG/{error,param}/*.i now include perlcomatibility.h to work with perl 5.6.x
Version 0.25 - 2000-09-28 (JBa)
------------
+ (src/error/Makefile.PL, src/param/Makefile.PL) changed
initialisation, such that:
* one can work on this package
without building the complete SAS core tree
* perltasks can be run under gcc-2.95 (it is suprising that it
worked under egcs anyways)
