1 Changes for Devel-Declare
4 - Don't invoke the linestr callback if we found a keyword and the bufptr
5 still contains an arrow at its beginning. This causes the linestr callback
6 not to be fired on things like "->method" (if method is a declarator).
7 While this might be useful, it mostly caused problems so far. It might be
8 added again later as a separate feature.
10 0.005009 - 10 Aug 2009
11 - Stop mixing declarations with code. (Closes: RT#48548) (Cosimo Streppone)
12 - Move strip_attrs, which is a purely parsing method, from
13 MethodInstaller::Simple to Context::Simple (nperez).
15 0.005008 - 27 Jul 2009
16 - Depend on the latest ExtUtils::Depends for win32+gcc support.
17 - Conditionally expand linestrings under perl debugger.
19 0.005007 - 13 Jul 2009
20 - Fix line numbers not being updated from skipspace calls
22 0.005006 - 16 Jun 2009
23 - Fix compilation on 5.8 perls.
25 0.005005 - 05 Jun 2009
26 - Improve compatibility with MAD-enabled perls
27 (Reini Urban, Closes RT#45779).
29 0.005004 - 03 Jun 2009
30 - Don't redefine MEM_WRAP_CHECK_ if it's already defined, getting rid of
31 compilation errors on some perls (Maik Fischer).
33 0.005003 - 24 May 2009
34 - Failing tests for line number issues (Ash Berlin).
35 - Add strip_names_and_args (Cory Watson).
36 - Various pod fixes (Yanick Champoux, Florian Ragwitz).
37 - Add copyright statements.
40 - Don't invoke the linestr callback if the parser was expecting an operator.
41 This makes calling a method with the name of a declarator work.
44 - Implement skip_declarator in terms of scan_word in Context::Simple.
45 This avoids relying on PL_tokenbuf to skip past the declarator, as
46 PL_tokenbuf might be overwritten by compiling other code between calling
47 the linestr callback and skip_declarator.
50 - Port the documentation from %^H and Scope::Guard to B::Hooks::EndOfScope.
51 - Fix extracting multi-line strings using scan_str.
52 - Remove the nasty workaround for the above from Context::Simple.
55 - Much improved documentation (osfameron).
56 - Make sure the linestr callback isn't invoked when a declarator is used as
57 part of some quoting construct like qq//, m//, s///, qr//, tr///, qx//, ``,
58 etc (Florian Ragwitz).
59 - Tests for this (osfameron, Florian Ragwitz).
62 - Depend on a recent B::Hooks::EndOfScope to make semicolon injection more
63 robust (Florian Ragwitz).
64 - Add a couple of TODO tests for better error reporting (Marcus Ramberg).
65 - Context::Simple::inject_if_block now returns true if start of block was
69 - Make magic work within string evals on 5.10 if the hints hash is used.
70 - Bind S_scan_ident to perl. It allows scanning for simple identifiers.
71 - Add strip_ident to Context::Simple.
74 - Devel::Declare::MethodInstaller::Simple now has code_for() which the
75 subclass can override to monkey with the magic shadowed subroutine.
76 This is handy if you want to employ Devel::BeginLift.
79 - Depend on Sub::Name and B::Hooks::EndOfScope. MethodInstaller::Simple and
80 Context::Simple use them.
83 - Don't use :lvalue in Context::Simple and MethodInstaller::Simple to keep
87 - Add Devel::Declare::Context::Simple and
88 Devel::Declare::MethodInstaller::Simple as an experimental way to make
89 creating block- and sub-like keywords easier (Rhesa Rozendaal).
92 - Use B::Hooks::OP::Check to register PL_check callbacks.
93 - Use B::Hooks::EndOfScope instead of %^H and Scope::Guard.
94 - Don't segfault if HvNAME(PL_curstash) == NULL.
95 - Don't segfault on 5.9.5+, where PL_parser is a symbol, not a define.
96 - Don't delete the previous symbol table entry when shadowing subs. This
97 makes us work within the debugger.
98 - Don't mix declarations and code.
101 - switch done_declare call from call_argv to call_pv.
102 - Make get_linestr{,_offset} return sensible values when called while the
103 parser isn't running.
104 - Remove several compile time warnings.
105 - Allow enabling of debug mode using $ENV{DD_DEBUG}.
108 - clean up checks for whether we're lexing and whether lex_stuff exists
109 to handle the PL_parser factor-out in 5.10
110 - check if reallocation of PL_linestr is necessary before doing it. this way
111 we can bail out properly instead of corrupting memory in some cases
112 - don't call strlen twice on the same sting
113 - try to be more portable
115 - don't use Perl_* functions directly.
116 - don't define PERL_CORE
117 - use NEWSV from handy.h instead of defining our own
118 - don't define PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT
119 - don't support preprocessors (perl -P)
122 - rewrite guts into perl, add tests for new declaration style
125 - add support for 'method main' and other package names
128 - fix traits code, again, so it compiles on 5.10.
131 - only mangle evals if o->op_ppaddr is actually PL_ppaddr[OP_ENTERVAL]
132 - don't set OPf_SPECIAL on entereval ops, mistaken cargo cult from autobox
133 - fix traits code to work on older 5.8.x perls
136 - turns out 0.1.7 in Makefile.PL results in that version going into
137 the .xs file as well as the dist name. Then everything breaks.
140 - bail on SvGROW during declare process since that can't work
141 - use a source filter on files and an op wrap on evals to pre-grow
142 PL_linestr so we don't get to the point of needing to bail
145 - nasty goto &$func hack to avoid :lvalue+list context weirdness
146 - correct SvGROW invocation
149 - stop using & prototypes at all
152 - correct idiotic typo if ifndef
155 - internalise definitions for toke.c chunks to save hassle
156 - make NEWSV macro defined via ifndef rather than version check in case
157 of 5.8.8-maint (and 5.8.9)
160 - compilation fixes for 5.9.5 and -DDEBUGGING
163 - compilation fixes for 5.8.1+
164 - set Makefile.PL to bomb out for <5.8.1
167 - Initial release to CPAN
