The module BSD::Resource has been updated to version 1.05.
The BSD::Resource gives an interface to the BSD process resource and
priority control functions

Issues addressed in this release:
- portability
(now: AIX, Digital UNIX, FreeBSD, HP-UX, IRIX, Linux, Solaris, SunOS)
- 64-bit resource limits (Digital UNIX, FreeBSD, IRIX)
- object oriented interfaces added: $ru->stime
- more rlimits recognized if available (NPROC, MEMLOCK)
- get_rlimits() function to list all the available rlimits
- documentation enhancements
The new release is available from
