Revision history for Perl extension FameHLI.

0.903 Mon Apr 23, 2001

    FameHLI::API
    - Fixed the "Date Frequency" stuff.  If a data type is not one
      of the standard "Num, Prec, Str or Bool" datatypes then it
      is probably one of the several hundred Date Frequencies.
    - Made the length arguments optional (and ignored) of functions 
      which return strings.  This brings FameHLI in line with
      TimeIQ in relieving the programmer from that drudge.
    - Added the new "cfmspos" function for 9.0.  Please see Fame
      docs when 9.0 comes out.  This function has a pretty strong
      'gotcha' if your program exits abnormally.
    - Removed "Get Length" functions and inserted "defaults" for 
      length arguments.
    - Removed 'cfmopre' function.

    FameHLI::API/tests
    - Removed arguments from functions not needing "length" related
      elements.
    - Removed tests for depricated functions.
    - Removed "Get Length" function tests
    - Removed Cfmopre which is depricated.  Change calls to use
      'cfmopcn' and 'cfmoprc' instead.

0.902 Thu Apr 19, 2001

    FameHLI::API
    - Removed a quirky internal function which wasn't really needed
    - Added in several of the "how long is that" string function for
      completeness.  They aren't really needed because if the caller
      of the string retrieval function doesn't specify a length (or
      gives a length of '0'), I just figure it out for them.
    - Found 2 possible bugs in the C-HLI: cfmfame prints out an error
      message to STDERR or STDOUT upon an error condition and 
      cfmlerr returns an error length of '0' for that same condition.
    - Converted several more functions from standard 'C' data type
      arguments to SV*'s.  It seems to confuse the compiler less.
    - Added the ':all' EXPORT_TAG so everything could be imported.
    - Added the comments to API.pm supporting the added tests
      noted below.

    FameHLI::API/tests
    - Added tests for other functions which are defined but were not
      tested in the previous release.
    - Changed all but test 08 to import all functions and #defines
      so I could clear out some noisey text in those files.  It
      makes it easier for a C-HLI programmer to see what is going
      on.  08 has been left with fully qualified names for 
      instructional purposes.

    FameHLI::API::EXT
    - It appears that the EXT module runs in a different space from
      the API module.  I would get Not Initialized errors from CFM
      calls in the EXT module if I didn't call cfmini there as well
      in the BOOT code.
    - Added the ':all' EXPORT_TAG so everything could be imported.
