1 Revision history for Devel-Declare
3 - added deprecated flag to metadata. No deprecation warning is given at
5 - added "WARNING" section in pod, advising the deprecated status of this
9 - tests fixed for blead (5.21.*) (Matthew Horsfall, RT#102918)
12 - fix for changes in 5.21.4 (Avoid creating GVs when subs are declared),
13 RT#99102, Father Chrysostomos
16 - fixed syntax error in a test
19 - fix use of wrong sprintf formatting codes (Zefram, RT#91983)
22 - converted dist to Distar
25 - re-release, because Module::Install is AWESOME!
28 - Updates for some deprecations in perl 5.17. (Zefram, RT#83968)
31 - In XS, use PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT for efficiency.
32 - Avoid using Test::Warn, which has previously been a troublesome
36 - Fix workaround for unexported core symbols to avoid breaking
37 compilation on non-threading builds of Perl 5.8.
38 - Set permissions on .perldb file created during test, to avoid
39 "insecure rcfile" warning.
42 - Be adaptive about whether to delete the line reallocation filter,
43 so as to play as nicely as possible with other kinds of source filter.
44 - Document that injecting newlines doesn't work.
45 - Fix a C declaration after statement, which broke compatibility with
46 older compilers (Jan Dubois).
47 - Partially work around unexported core symbols affecting Perl 5.8 on
48 Windows (David Bouyssie).
49 - Jump through some hoops to avoid compiler warnings.
52 - Adjust toke_scan_str logic to always leave the prefix part of
56 - Depend on B::Hooks::OP::Check version 0.19, which fixes a serious bug in
57 how it interacts with other modules that hook ops.
58 - Initialize immediately upon loading the module, so that "was Devel::Declare
59 loaded soon enough" errors in string eval can be fixed by loading the
60 module earlier without having to also actually use the module earlier.
61 - Adjust toke_scan_str logic to always show a positive effective length of
63 - Return undef from toke_scan_str if string was unterminated.
64 - Detect and croak if unwanted reallocation occurs during toke_scan_str.
65 - Avoid memory leak in toke_scan_str.
66 - Give Devel::Declare::Context::Simple a version number.
67 - Add MYMETA.{json,yml} to MANIFEST.SKIP and .gitignore.
70 - Increase default linestr size to avoid reallocations (Zefram).
73 - Add a flag for controlling 'redefined' warnings when installing subs into
77 - Bail out earlier when being called while not lexing (Zefram).
78 - Make sure we continue working with Devel::CallParser loaded (Zefram).
81 - Fix test-failures on old perl versions (Zefram).
84 - Re-add Support for very early growing of PL_linestr using filters (Zefram).
87 - Support perl >= 5.13.7 by re-allocating PL_linestr in block hooks (Zefram).
90 - Make things work on perl 5.11.2 and newer (Zefram).
93 - Add tests for not interpreting various things as barewords when they
95 - Depend on a Test::More with done_testing support.
96 - Don't invoke the const callback for a keyword followed by a fat comma.
99 - Don't invoke the linestr callback if we found a keyword and the bufptr
100 still contains an arrow at its beginning. This causes the linestr callback
101 not to be fired on things like "->method" (if method is a declarator).
102 While this might be useful, it mostly caused problems so far. It might be
103 added again later as a separate feature.
105 0.005009 - 2009-08-10
106 - Stop mixing declarations with code. (Closes: RT#48548) (Cosimo Streppone)
107 - Move strip_attrs, which is a purely parsing method, from
108 MethodInstaller::Simple to Context::Simple (nperez).
110 0.005008 - 2009-07-27
111 - Depend on the latest ExtUtils::Depends for win32+gcc support.
112 - Conditionally expand linestrings under perl debugger.
114 0.005007 - 2009-07-13
115 - Fix line numbers not being updated from skipspace calls
117 0.005006 - 2009-06-16
118 - Fix compilation on 5.8 perls.
120 0.005005 - 2009-06-05
121 - Improve compatibility with MAD-enabled perls
122 (Reini Urban, Closes RT#45779).
124 0.005004 - 2009-06-03
125 - Don't redefine MEM_WRAP_CHECK_ if it's already defined, getting rid of
126 compilation errors on some perls (Maik Fischer).
128 0.005003 - 2009-05-24
129 - Failing tests for line number issues (Ash Berlin).
130 - Add strip_names_and_args (Cory Watson).
131 - Various pod fixes (Yanick Champoux, Florian Ragwitz).
132 - Add copyright statements.
134 0.005002 - 2009-05-10
135 - Don't invoke the linestr callback if the parser was expecting an operator.
136 This makes calling a method with the name of a declarator work.
138 0.005001 - 2009-05-06
139 - Implement skip_declarator in terms of scan_word in Context::Simple.
140 This avoids relying on PL_tokenbuf to skip past the declarator, as
141 PL_tokenbuf might be overwritten by compiling other code between calling
142 the linestr callback and skip_declarator.
144 0.005000 - 2009-04-18
145 - Port the documentation from %^H and Scope::Guard to B::Hooks::EndOfScope.
146 - Fix extracting multi-line strings using scan_str.
147 - Remove the nasty workaround for the above from Context::Simple.
149 0.004000 - 2009-04-10
150 - Much improved documentation (osfameron).
151 - Make sure the linestr callback isn't invoked when a declarator is used as
152 part of some quoting construct like qq//, m//, s///, qr//, tr///, qx//, ``,
153 etc (Florian Ragwitz).
154 - Tests for this (osfameron, Florian Ragwitz).
156 0.003005 - 2009-03-30
157 - Depend on a recent B::Hooks::EndOfScope to make semicolon injection more
158 robust (Florian Ragwitz).
159 - Add a couple of TODO tests for better error reporting (Marcus Ramberg).
160 - Context::Simple::inject_if_block now returns true if start of block was
163 0.003004 - 2008-12-11
164 - Make magic work within string evals on 5.10 if the hints hash is used.
165 - Bind S_scan_ident to perl. It allows scanning for simple identifiers.
166 - Add strip_ident to Context::Simple.
168 0.003003 - 2008-10-27
169 - Devel::Declare::MethodInstaller::Simple now has code_for() which the
170 subclass can override to monkey with the magic shadowed subroutine.
171 This is handy if you want to employ Devel::BeginLift.
173 0.003002 - 2008-10-25
174 - Depend on Sub::Name and B::Hooks::EndOfScope. MethodInstaller::Simple and
175 Context::Simple use them.
177 0.003001 - 2008-10-25
178 - Don't use :lvalue in Context::Simple and MethodInstaller::Simple to keep
181 0.003000 - 2008-10-24
182 - Add Devel::Declare::Context::Simple and
183 Devel::Declare::MethodInstaller::Simple as an experimental way to make
184 creating block- and sub-like keywords easier (Rhesa Rozendaal).
186 0.002999_01 - 2008-10-24
187 - Use B::Hooks::OP::Check to register PL_check callbacks.
188 - Use B::Hooks::EndOfScope instead of %^H and Scope::Guard.
189 - Don't segfault if HvNAME(PL_curstash) == NULL.
190 - Don't segfault on 5.9.5+, where PL_parser is a symbol, not a define.
191 - Don't delete the previous symbol table entry when shadowing subs. This
192 makes us work within the debugger.
193 - Don't mix declarations and code.
195 0.002002 - 2008-10-19
196 - switch done_declare call from call_argv to call_pv.
197 - Make get_linestr{,_offset} return sensible values when called while the
198 parser isn't running.
199 - Remove several compile time warnings.
200 - Allow enabling of debug mode using $ENV{DD_DEBUG}.
202 0.002001 - 2008-10-04
203 - clean up checks for whether we're lexing and whether lex_stuff exists
204 to handle the PL_parser factor-out in 5.10
205 - check if reallocation of PL_linestr is necessary before doing it. this way
206 we can bail out properly instead of corrupting memory in some cases
207 - don't call strlen twice on the same sting
208 - try to be more portable
210 - don't use Perl_* functions directly.
211 - don't define PERL_CORE
212 - use NEWSV from handy.h instead of defining our own
213 - don't define PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT
214 - don't support preprocessors (perl -P)
216 0.002000 - 2008-09-19
217 - rewrite guts into perl, add tests for new declaration style
219 0.001011 - 2008-06-04
220 - add support for 'method main' and other package names
222 0.001010 - 2008-06-04
223 - fix traits code, again, so it compiles on 5.10.
225 0.001009 - 2008-06-03
226 - only mangle evals if o->op_ppaddr is actually PL_ppaddr[OP_ENTERVAL]
227 - don't set OPf_SPECIAL on entereval ops, mistaken cargo cult from autobox
228 - fix traits code to work on older 5.8.x perls
230 0.001008 - 2008-06-01
231 - turns out 0.1.7 in Makefile.PL results in that version going into
232 the .xs file as well as the dist name. Then everything breaks.
234 0.001007 - 2008-06-01
235 - bail on SvGROW during declare process since that can't work
236 - use a source filter on files and an op wrap on evals to pre-grow
237 PL_linestr so we don't get to the point of needing to bail
239 0.001006 - 2007-11-26
240 - nasty goto &$func hack to avoid :lvalue+list context weirdness
241 - correct SvGROW invocation
243 0.001005 - 2007-11-09
244 - stop using & prototypes at all
246 0.001004 - 2007-10-25
247 - correct idiotic typo if ifndef
249 0.001003 - 2007-10-25
250 - internalise definitions for toke.c chunks to save hassle
251 - make NEWSV macro defined via ifndef rather than version check in case
252 of 5.8.8-maint (and 5.8.9)
254 0.001002 - 2007-10-21
255 - compilation fixes for 5.9.5 and -DDEBUGGING
257 0.001001 - 2007-10-17
258 - compilation fixes for 5.8.1+
259 - set Makefile.PL to bomb out for <5.8.1
261 0.001000 - 2007-09-23
262 - Initial release to CPAN
