[ Copied from a message sent to the html-template-users list ]
Hello all. I'm sure it will come as a great shock, but I'm planning to make a new release of HTML::Template sometime next week. Here is what I have so far:
- Bug Fix: Improved cache keying to be sensitive to options which
alter the compilation of templates (path, search_path_on_include,
loop_context_vars and global_vars). Calls to new() with
different settings for any of these options will no longer pull
incorrect cached objects.
- Bug Fix: Added code to detect broken Perl 5.8.0 utf-8 during
installation (i.e. Redhat 8 and 9).
- Bug Fix: Fixed parsing of ESCAPE='URL' (Paul Baker)
It's that first one that's stimulating this release. However, I know a number of you have pending bugs and (shudder) new features that you'd like to see addressed in the next release. Now is the time to get them in for 2.7.
If you're submitting a bug report please include a complete test case that demonstrates the problem. For extra points make it a patch to test.pl in CVS.
If you're submitting a patch, please make it against CVS if you can. If not then please make sure it was made against the 2.6 release.
Thanks!
