Classmethods
• new
Create a new object. This ignores all arguments.
Instancemethods
• affected_versions( ARRAY_REF, RANGE )
Given an array reference of versions, return a list of all of the versions in ARRAY_REF that are in
RANGE. This is really a filter on ARRAY_REF using the values for which "in_range" returns true.
my @matching = $cav->affected_versions( \@versions, $range );
• in_range( VERSION, RANGE )
Returns true if VERSION is contained in RANGE, and false otherwise. VERSION is any sort of Perl,
such as 1.23 or 1.2.3. The RANGE is a comma-separated list of range specifications using the
comparators "<", "<=", "==", ">", ">=", or "!=". For example, ">=1.23,<1.45", "==1.23", or ">1.23".
my $version = 5.67;
my $range = '>=5,<6'; # so, all the versions in 5.x
if( $cav->in_range( $version, $range ) ) {
say "$version is within $range";
}
else {
say "$version is not within $range";
}
