0.6.0 - 11-Dec-2011
- Switched Unix code to use FFI.
- Removed all of the C related tasks from the Rakefile and added the
gem:build and gem:install tasks.
- Internal directory layout changes, with appropriate changes to the gemspec.
0.5.3 - 7-May-2009
- Altered the Uptime.seconds implementation on Linux so that it works with
both Ruby 1.8.x and 1.9.x. Thanks go to Alexey Chebotar for the spot.
0.5.2 - 13-Dec-2008
- Fixed a date/time issue in the Windows version caused by Ruby itself.
- Fixed the Uptime.seconds, Uptime.minutes and Uptime.hours methods on MS
Windows.
- Renamed the test file to ‘test_sys_uptime.rb’.
- Some minor updates to the Rakefile.
0.5.1 - 26-Jul-2007
- Fixed bug in the MS Windows version caused by incorrect parsing of an MS
specific date format (caused by a bug in Ruby 1.8.6). Thanks go to Robert
H. for the spot.
- Inlined the Rake installation tasks, so the install.rb file has been
removed.
- Added an ‘install_gem’ Rake task, and updated the README
installation instructions.
0.5.0 - 30-Mar-2007
- For platforms that use C code, the code now always uses the sysctl()
function if supported by your system. This replaces the platform specific
checks I was doing for the various BSD flavors.
- Fix for OS X - the Uptime.boot_time method now works.
- UptimeError is now Uptime::Error.
- Improved RDoc in the uptime.c source code.
- Added a Rakefile - users should now use the ‘test’ and
‘install’ rake tasks.
- Updates to the MANIFEST, README and uptime.txt files.
0.4.5 - 19-Nov-2006
- Internal layout changes, minor doc updates and gemspec improvements.
- No code changes.
0.4.4 - 30-Jun-2006
- Added inline rdoc documentation to the source files.
- Added a gemspec.
0.4.3 - 18-Dec-2005
- Changed the Linux version to pure Ruby. The current method of determining
uptime in unix.c does not work in Linux kernel 2.6+. So, from now on it
reads out of /proc/uptime.
0.4.2 - 6-May-2005
- Fixed a potential boot_time bug.
- Removed the version.h file. It‘s no longer needed since the Windows
version is pure Ruby.
- NetBSD 2.x and FreeBSD 5.x now supported.
- Removed the INSTALL file. Installation instructions are now in the README
file.
- Removed the uptime.rd file. You can generate html documentation by running
rdoc over the uptime.txt file.
- Made most documents rdoc friendly.
- Moved project to RubyForge.
0.4.1 - 14-Dec-2004
- Moved freebsd code into unix.c file.
- Should now work past 249 days (2**31) on systems that have utmpx.h.
- Fixed a bug with regards to boot_time, where it was possible that it would
simply be empty.
0.4.0 - 8-Jul-2004
- Removed all reference to the CLK_TCK constant, as per documentation from
Richard Stevens that it is deprecated and that sysconf() should be used
instead (well, I knew about this, but ignored it until now).
- Scrapped the C version for Windows in favor of a pure Ruby version that
uses win32ole + WMI.
- Added a boot_time method for Unix systems (Windows already had this).
- Added an UptimeError class on Unix systems (and replaced UptimeException on
Windows).
- Modified an internal function to raise an UptimeError if the times()
function fails. Also, it now returns an unsigned long instead of a plain
long.
- Replaced the two different test suites with a single, unified test suite.
- Cleaned up the extconf.rb script. I now assume that TestUnit is installed.
- Removed the load_avg method (which was never advertised and which I hope
you weren‘t using). You can find a load_avg method in the sys-cpu
package.
- Changed uptime.rd2 to uptime.rd to be consistent with my other packages.
- Removed the uptime.html file - you may generate that on your own.
- Added warranty and license info.
0.3.2 - 30-Dec-2003
- Cleaned up some warnings that showed up with -Wall on some unix platforms
(int vs long format, explicit include)
- Minor test suite and extconf.rb changes
0.3.1 - 25-Jun-2003
- Modified test files to handle HP-UX extensions
- Minor doc updates
- Added the dhms() method. Actually, this was in the 0.3.0 release, I just
forgot to mention it in this file :)
0.3.0 - 22-Jun-2003
- Added OS X support - thanks go to Mike Hall for the patch
- Fixed incorrect values in FreeBSD (again Mike Hall)
- Modified tc_unix.rb test suite to handle OS X, along with a bit
- of minor cleanup
- Removed VERSION class method. Use the constant instead
- Separated FreeBSD/OS X source into its own file (freebsd.c). The ifdefs
were starting to get too ugly for me
0.2.1 - 13-May-2003
- Fixed bug in extconf.rb file, and made some major changes
- Modified test.rb for those without TestUnit
- Modified TestUnit tests - some bogus tests were removed
- Added a README file with some additional info
- Created a version.h file, so that I can keep the VERSION number in one
place
- Docs automatically included in doc directory (i.e. no more interactive
document creation)
0.2.0 - 13-Mar-2003
- Added MS Windows support
- Added a VERSION constant
- Added a test suite (for those with TestUnit installed)
- Internal directory layout change
- uptime.c is now split into unix.c and windows.c (and linked appropriately)
- Changelog and Manifest are now CHANGES and MANIFEST, respectively
- Many changes to extconf.rb
0.1.3 - 6-Jan-2003
- Added a VERSION class method
- Added a copyright notice
- Fixed up the docs a bit and moved them to the doc directory
- Changed the tarball name to match the RAA package name
- Modified test.rb script to make it better
- Changed install instructions slightly
0.1.2 - 25-Aug-2002
- Slight change to preprocessor commands to avoid redefining CLK_TCK on those
systems that define it in time.h
- Added an INSTALL file
0.1.1 - 21-Jun-2002
- The CLK_TCK constant wasn‘t necessarily being set correctly, which
could lead to some odd results. This has been fixed.
0.1.0 - 17-Jun-2002
