  • taskforest 1.26 file released: TaskForest-1.26.tar.gz

    There was an unnecessary call to 'use Date::Calc' in Calendar.pm.  I
          didn't notice it, because I have it installed. It is not being used. It
          may cause tests to fail.  I have removed the line.

    This release fixes a nasty bug where Family files were not being
        parsed properly if the files were in DOS format (with CRLF endings,
        instead of just LF).  Unfortunately, most web browsers save textarea
        text with CRLF, so a Family file that ...

  • taskforest 1.22 file released: TaskForest-1.22.tar.gz

    o Added the ability to release all dependencies from a job.  This makes
      the job available to run immediately, regardless of how many jobs it is
      supposed to wait for, or what time dependency it has.  Releasing a job
      effectively changes its status ...

  • Version 1.21 of the TaskForest Job Scheduler Released

    Fixed a bug that was causing the rerun and mark commands run with the --cascade or --dependents_only flag to print an error message when there was, in fact, no error, and possibly exit before rerunning or marking all requested jobs.
