Sounds good, I will skip the related tests then...

Perhaps we should have a branching strategy? so we can work on issues  
in parallel

or we create a subproject aiming at a release - I think this is  
normally called a roadmap :)

Well it is all things which needs to be done, the task listing would  
enable us to plan when the bugs should be fixed and we keep them in  
RT until resolved.

Otherwise we should mention that bug reports should go to sf.net  
instead of rt.cpan.org.

[Number::Format] Release 1.52

[Bill W. <bi...@wa...>]

I have decided to release 1.52 with that \s+ to \s* change now, and
then we can concentrate on other features.

I have updated all the files such as README and CHANGES for the
release and am checking those in now, then I will be applying the CVS
label.  Please don't make any more commits until I give the word.

I also took the 3 issues listed in the TODO file and entered them in
the Feature Requests tracker.  You should all be able to access the
tracker now:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=175334&atid=872819

I think we should enter the bugs from RT under the Bugs or Support
Requests trackers, not the Tasks list.  Any thoughts on that?  I'm new
at this SourceForge admin stuff so if you think I should do it
differently please speak up.  Also don't hesitate to ask for access to
something that you may be blocked from doing currently.

Hi All,

Just jumping into the middle of this discussion.  I am pretty sure
that Test::More runs fine on older architectures, it is just not
installed by default.  Also, you would be hard-pressed to find a
distribution on CPAN (at least from the list of quality/well
maintained modules) that do not use Test::More.  I would think that it
is a reasonable requirement to add.

One thing to keep in mind is that a test suite is only good if it is
bug free.  Using a tried and tested module like Test::More could
reduce the likelyhood of errors creaping into the test suite.

Cheers,

Cees

ps for those of you wondering why I am on this list, I wrote the
JavaScript port of Number::Format.  If anyone is interested in helping
me out with that, let me know (it is in CVS on sourceforge already).
My aim is to keep it as a 100% clone of the per version.

Re: [Number::Format] Release 1.60 (was Release 1.52)

[Bill W. <bi...@wa...>]

Now that I think about it - I am pretty sure that when I did 1.51 I
had several locale related bugs to fix, and I fixed them and decided
not to try to support older versions of Perl.  From the Format.pm
code, it says:


# Due to differences in the locale system Perl 5.8 is required for
# this module to function properly.  You may be able to get it to work
# on older Perls by uncommenting this line, but it is not supported.
# I recommend you either upgrade Perl or download an older version of
# this module in that case.
require 5.008;


That said, if someone wants to make the effort to ensure compatibility
with older versions, that's fine with me...

Re: [Number::Format] Release 1.60 (was Release 1.52)

[Bill W. <bi...@wa...>]

As I upload the old releases to the SourceForge download area, I am
discovering that the CVS versions do *not* match up with the release
versions after all.

It tricked me because the CVS version was 1.42 and the release was 1.52.
There's a tag in CVS called release-x-yy for version x.yy (but I
notice this tag isn't set for the latest couple of versions!) which
correlates the releases to the CVS versions.

Sorry for the stupidity, but I'm new at SourceForge and I've ignored
this pacakge so long I forgot how I was doing it!!

Well,

Shouldn't we aim for backwards compability to the extent possible or  
can you say now that handling locales are not worth the effort prior  
to 5.8?

I just realized - we already have a line that says "require 5.008" so
nevermind all this business about backward compatibility.  Let the
Test::More changes be commited.

Re: [Number::Format] Release 1.52

[Jonas B. N. <jo...@gm...>]

Hi Bill,

If that is the case, I say we wait a few days and try to eliminate as  
many as the reported issues as possible.

I still cannot create tasks on sf.net, or perhaps I just do not  
understand how to, but else we could just go over the list I wroteup.

As far as I can tell we are already two requests down :-)

Not sure how we would roll it back without access to the CVS

Never mind ... let's just go to 1.6 as the next release.  Are there
any other low-hanging fruit type changes that anyone wants to make for

Re: [Number::Format] Release 1.52

[Jonas B. N. <jo...@gm...>]

Hi Bill,

Well you do not have to use the revision number, I just expected you  
auto-incremented the version number based on the revision number, I  
can see now that this is not the case, we might as well call this  
release 1.52 or we could roll back to 1.51 and try again?

I will look into writing a test for the patch.

Re: [Number::Format] Release 1.52

[Bill W. <bi...@wa...>]

Damnit, the version number!  I thought it was automatically converted
from the CVS version but I see that it is hard coded.  So I guess
version 1.52 now has to include CVS version 1.53.  Ugh.

As for the test, I like to follow the policy that any change made
should have a test explicitly designed to cover that change.  In this
case we could test both with and without the space in int_curr_symbol.

Hi Bill,

And we need to update the VERSION number AFAIK

Well the patch fixed a problem with failling tests? - so that the  
tests are succesfull should suffice or?

It seems as if there has been a glitch in the release of 1.51?

[Number::Format] Release 1.52

[Bill W. <bi...@wa...>]

To make release 1.52 I think we need to do:

1. Add release date to CHANGES file
2. Update README file
3. Add a test case for the patch which was just committed

Will someone do #3?  I can do #1 and #2.  Is there anything else I'm missing?

This is the first time I've done a release via SourceForge for any
project so I need to learn how to do that.  I'm planning to upload the
older versions as a test.  Have any of you done that before?  Any tips
if so?

Hi,

According to Module::CoreList (latest and greatest)

Test::More and Test::Simple are where both included in Core  
distribution from: 5.007003 (5.7.3)

if we fall back to using the regular Test module, which is ok, it was  
included in the Core distribution from:  5.005

Sounds like it worked out fine since you were both committing the same
patch.  But maybe in the future it would be better to discuss changes
by email before committing them, especially as long as we're still
tying CVS versions to release versions.

Yes.  For now I think it's important that we don't break compatibility
with older versions of Perl that may not have Test::More included.
Jonas is investigating to see what version of Perl first included
Test::More.  We'll use that as the minimum requirement for 2.0,
assuming that is no older than the version (5.6 I think) that
implemented the full locale support.

(The reason locale support is so confusing in N::F is because I wrote
it for an older version of Perl that had very poor locale support.)

Ooops -- I just committed his patch, after he mentioned it in the last
email.  Since it had been sitting for two weeks, I assumed he wasn't

I started updating the tests. so far I've done format_bytes.t.  It's
functionally the same as the previous version, just reworked to use
Test::More.

I'll wait to commit this, though.

[Number::Format] Release plans

[Bill W. <bi...@wa...>]

I was talking with Jonas on AIM today...  here's the gist:

1. He has a patch ready for
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21382 - that will produce
Format.pm version 1.52 when he commits it

2. We will make minor fixes to the test suite and docs for a 1.52 release
which will be the first release done via Sourceforge.

3. We will switch the tests to use Test::More and clean up the locale
support, since that was written when Perl had really poor locale support and
is causing most of the bugs these days.  This will be release 2.0 and will
also include any needed API changes and bug fixes.

4. Up until now, CVS file versions on Format.pm have been the source of the
version numbering for the releases.  That made sense while I was the only
developer but now we have to decouple that.  1.52 will be the last version
where Format.pm's version is the release number.  After that we can just
manually increment it and not have it be derived from CVS.

Any comments or concerns?

Re: [Number::Format] Test failure

[Bill W. <bi...@wa...>]

I think Test::Simple was written after the Number::Format tests were
already done.  This module is a few years old.  If you want to convert
them to Test::Simple I have no issue with that.

[Number::Format] Test failure

[Darren C. <dl...@se...>]

The latest CVS has test failures in t/format_price.t.  It appears that
the tests are expecting Number::Format to emit a space after the
currency symbol:

  print "not " unless ($usd->format_price(123456.51) eq 'USD 123,456.51');
  print "ok 2\n";

In reality, there is no space:

  $ perl -Mblib -MNumber::Format -wle '$f =3D Number::Format->new(-int_curr=
_symbol =3D> "USD"); print $f->format_price(123456.51)'
  USD123,456.51

Is this an error in the tests or in the output from format_price?

Also, is there a reason the tests are not using Test::Simple?
