1 Revision history for Perl extension Net::Z3950::SimpleServer
4 - Support for IMP_ID parameter in Init responses. This was
5 actually written a long time ago, but left commented out as
6 the underlying YAZ back-end server didn't support
7 implementation-ID setting. Now that it does (and has done
8 for eighteen months -- since YAZ release 1.8.6 of
9 2002/03/25!), I've finally removed the comments.
10 - Init handler now understands the setting of {ERR_CODE} as
11 more than a boolean success indicator, and also {ERR_STR}.
12 They are now passed back to the client (thanks to recent
13 changes to the YAZ generic front-end server) in accordance
14 with Z39.50 Implementor Agreement 5, found at
15 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/agree/initdiag.html
