Version 0.06 : 17/05/2001 - fixed unchecked return values in Diagram.pm when Inheritances() or Dependancies is called that caused a crash when no inheritances or dependancies were found at the layout stage. - did some tidying of code to make more consistent and clear. - fixed HandlerCpp to handle simple C++. Extracts most simple class info succesfully. = autodia is now well into beta with support for perl and simple c++ through the included handlers. Version 0.05 : 08/05/2001 - rewrite of parsing logic to use handlers **important** * all parsing is done by a parser class based on the Parser superclass * language options and handlers are matched using autodia.pm - increased error checking. - some small bug fixes. - first beta release of autodia - **new name** = autodia is now functionally complete it supports multiple languages and behaviours through the multiple handlers - currently an intermediate perl handler and a simple c++ handler. Handlers are easily written, inheriting and overloading the generic handler class provided. Version 0.04 : 24/4/2001 - further rewrite of the command line interface **important** - added functionality to find simple object attributes - rewrite of how relationships work - added functionality to place relations near their child - rewrite of layout code = now accepts directories and can recurse through them and layout is now improved for clarity. Version 0.03 : 18/4/2001 - fixed some parsing problems, now parses files better - fixed a dereferencing problem - rewrote the command line interface **important** = now handles complex and simple perl modules and scripts better Version 0.02 : 17/4/2001 - fixed problem occuring where no superclasses existed, now checks for existance of superclasses, classes, etc before trying to print - Checks for duplicate classes and ignores them instead of overwriting existsing ones. - removed a load of un-necessary code - made the layout a little more space efficient (still needs some serious work though). - fixed text inside components = now handles CGI.pm fairly well, and lays out itself rather well. Version 0.01b : 12/4/2001 - fixed problems in template.xml, no longer crashes dia - rewrote duplication and supercession code almost from scratch - fixed numerous silly mistakes involving referencing and arrays of references = now loads in dia and correctly handles inheritance Version 0.01a : 10/4/2001 - fixed mistake in template.xml (should now parse cleanly in dia) - fixed command line options (now accepts -h for help and -o for output file) - added POD to autodial script - created FAQ
