Sfl 2.0 Released

sfl version 2.0 has been released!

sfl is an attempt to backport ruby1.9 Kernel.spawn and Process.spawn to
ruby1.8
The coverage is not perfect but basic features are supported (changing
dir,
basic
redirections and so on).

Changes:

2.0

  • Enhancements

    • Implemented :in redirection, i.e. spawn(“…”, :in => …)
    • Implemented :close redirection, i.e. spawn(“…”, :out/err/in =>
      :close)
    • Removed spawn override if ruby version is >= 1.9
    • Project structure enhanced with Rakefile and SFL::VERSION
    • Spec suite runs against Kernel.spawn to ensure comptability with
      native
      spawn in 1.9
  • Bugfixes

    • Fix the spec suite for ruby version 1.9.2
  • Known bugs

    • The spec suite may fail under ruby 1.9.1, due to ruby bugs on some
      spawn
      redirect options
