1 Revision history for Devel-Declare
3 - added deprecated flag to metadata. No deprecation warning is given at
7 - tests fixed for blead (5.21.*) (Matthew Horsfall, RT#102918)
10 - fix for changes in 5.21.4 (Avoid creating GVs when subs are declared),
11 RT#99102, Father Chrysostomos
14 - fixed syntax error in a test
17 - fix use of wrong sprintf formatting codes (Zefram, RT#91983)
20 - converted dist to Distar
23 - re-release, because Module::Install is AWESOME!
26 - Updates for some deprecations in perl 5.17. (Zefram, RT#83968)
29 - In XS, use PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT for efficiency.
30 - Avoid using Test::Warn, which has previously been a troublesome
34 - Fix workaround for unexported core symbols to avoid breaking
35 compilation on non-threading builds of Perl 5.8.
36 - Set permissions on .perldb file created during test, to avoid
37 "insecure rcfile" warning.
40 - Be adaptive about whether to delete the line reallocation filter,
41 so as to play as nicely as possible with other kinds of source filter.
42 - Document that injecting newlines doesn't work.
43 - Fix a C declaration after statement, which broke compatibility with
44 older compilers (Jan Dubois).
45 - Partially work around unexported core symbols affecting Perl 5.8 on
46 Windows (David Bouyssie).
47 - Jump through some hoops to avoid compiler warnings.
50 - Adjust toke_scan_str logic to always leave the prefix part of
54 - Depend on B::Hooks::OP::Check version 0.19, which fixes a serious bug in
55 how it interacts with other modules that hook ops.
56 - Initialize immediately upon loading the module, so that "was Devel::Declare
57 loaded soon enough" errors in string eval can be fixed by loading the
58 module earlier without having to also actually use the module earlier.
59 - Adjust toke_scan_str logic to always show a positive effective length of
61 - Return undef from toke_scan_str if string was unterminated.
62 - Detect and croak if unwanted reallocation occurs during toke_scan_str.
63 - Avoid memory leak in toke_scan_str.
64 - Give Devel::Declare::Context::Simple a version number.
65 - Add MYMETA.{json,yml} to MANIFEST.SKIP and .gitignore.
68 - Increase default linestr size to avoid reallocations (Zefram).
71 - Add a flag for controlling 'redefined' warnings when installing subs into
75 - Bail out earlier when being called while not lexing (Zefram).
76 - Make sure we continue working with Devel::CallParser loaded (Zefram).
79 - Fix test-failures on old perl versions (Zefram).
82 - Re-add Support for very early growing of PL_linestr using filters (Zefram).
85 - Support perl >= 5.13.7 by re-allocating PL_linestr in block hooks (Zefram).
88 - Make things work on perl 5.11.2 and newer (Zefram).
91 - Add tests for not interpreting various things as barewords when they
93 - Depend on a Test::More with done_testing support.
94 - Don't invoke the const callback for a keyword followed by a fat comma.
97 - Don't invoke the linestr callback if we found a keyword and the bufptr
98 still contains an arrow at its beginning. This causes the linestr callback
99 not to be fired on things like "->method" (if method is a declarator).
100 While this might be useful, it mostly caused problems so far. It might be
101 added again later as a separate feature.
103 0.005009 - 2009-08-10
104 - Stop mixing declarations with code. (Closes: RT#48548) (Cosimo Streppone)
105 - Move strip_attrs, which is a purely parsing method, from
106 MethodInstaller::Simple to Context::Simple (nperez).
108 0.005008 - 2009-07-27
109 - Depend on the latest ExtUtils::Depends for win32+gcc support.
110 - Conditionally expand linestrings under perl debugger.
112 0.005007 - 2009-07-13
113 - Fix line numbers not being updated from skipspace calls
115 0.005006 - 2009-06-16
116 - Fix compilation on 5.8 perls.
118 0.005005 - 2009-06-05
119 - Improve compatibility with MAD-enabled perls
120 (Reini Urban, Closes RT#45779).
122 0.005004 - 2009-06-03
123 - Don't redefine MEM_WRAP_CHECK_ if it's already defined, getting rid of
124 compilation errors on some perls (Maik Fischer).
126 0.005003 - 2009-05-24
127 - Failing tests for line number issues (Ash Berlin).
128 - Add strip_names_and_args (Cory Watson).
129 - Various pod fixes (Yanick Champoux, Florian Ragwitz).
130 - Add copyright statements.
132 0.005002 - 2009-05-10
133 - Don't invoke the linestr callback if the parser was expecting an operator.
134 This makes calling a method with the name of a declarator work.
136 0.005001 - 2009-05-06
137 - Implement skip_declarator in terms of scan_word in Context::Simple.
138 This avoids relying on PL_tokenbuf to skip past the declarator, as
139 PL_tokenbuf might be overwritten by compiling other code between calling
140 the linestr callback and skip_declarator.
142 0.005000 - 2009-04-18
143 - Port the documentation from %^H and Scope::Guard to B::Hooks::EndOfScope.
144 - Fix extracting multi-line strings using scan_str.
145 - Remove the nasty workaround for the above from Context::Simple.
147 0.004000 - 2009-04-10
148 - Much improved documentation (osfameron).
149 - Make sure the linestr callback isn't invoked when a declarator is used as
150 part of some quoting construct like qq//, m//, s///, qr//, tr///, qx//, ``,
151 etc (Florian Ragwitz).
152 - Tests for this (osfameron, Florian Ragwitz).
154 0.003005 - 2009-03-30
155 - Depend on a recent B::Hooks::EndOfScope to make semicolon injection more
156 robust (Florian Ragwitz).
157 - Add a couple of TODO tests for better error reporting (Marcus Ramberg).
158 - Context::Simple::inject_if_block now returns true if start of block was
161 0.003004 - 2008-12-11
162 - Make magic work within string evals on 5.10 if the hints hash is used.
163 - Bind S_scan_ident to perl. It allows scanning for simple identifiers.
164 - Add strip_ident to Context::Simple.
166 0.003003 - 2008-10-27
167 - Devel::Declare::MethodInstaller::Simple now has code_for() which the
168 subclass can override to monkey with the magic shadowed subroutine.
169 This is handy if you want to employ Devel::BeginLift.
171 0.003002 - 2008-10-25
172 - Depend on Sub::Name and B::Hooks::EndOfScope. MethodInstaller::Simple and
173 Context::Simple use them.
175 0.003001 - 2008-10-25
176 - Don't use :lvalue in Context::Simple and MethodInstaller::Simple to keep
179 0.003000 - 2008-10-24
180 - Add Devel::Declare::Context::Simple and
181 Devel::Declare::MethodInstaller::Simple as an experimental way to make
182 creating block- and sub-like keywords easier (Rhesa Rozendaal).
184 0.002999_01 - 2008-10-24
185 - Use B::Hooks::OP::Check to register PL_check callbacks.
186 - Use B::Hooks::EndOfScope instead of %^H and Scope::Guard.
187 - Don't segfault if HvNAME(PL_curstash) == NULL.
188 - Don't segfault on 5.9.5+, where PL_parser is a symbol, not a define.
189 - Don't delete the previous symbol table entry when shadowing subs. This
190 makes us work within the debugger.
191 - Don't mix declarations and code.
193 0.002002 - 2008-10-19
194 - switch done_declare call from call_argv to call_pv.
195 - Make get_linestr{,_offset} return sensible values when called while the
196 parser isn't running.
197 - Remove several compile time warnings.
198 - Allow enabling of debug mode using $ENV{DD_DEBUG}.
200 0.002001 - 2008-10-04
201 - clean up checks for whether we're lexing and whether lex_stuff exists
202 to handle the PL_parser factor-out in 5.10
203 - check if reallocation of PL_linestr is necessary before doing it. this way
204 we can bail out properly instead of corrupting memory in some cases
205 - don't call strlen twice on the same sting
206 - try to be more portable
208 - don't use Perl_* functions directly.
209 - don't define PERL_CORE
210 - use NEWSV from handy.h instead of defining our own
211 - don't define PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT
212 - don't support preprocessors (perl -P)
214 0.002000 - 2008-09-19
215 - rewrite guts into perl, add tests for new declaration style
217 0.001011 - 2008-06-04
218 - add support for 'method main' and other package names
220 0.001010 - 2008-06-04
221 - fix traits code, again, so it compiles on 5.10.
223 0.001009 - 2008-06-03
224 - only mangle evals if o->op_ppaddr is actually PL_ppaddr[OP_ENTERVAL]
225 - don't set OPf_SPECIAL on entereval ops, mistaken cargo cult from autobox
226 - fix traits code to work on older 5.8.x perls
228 0.001008 - 2008-06-01
229 - turns out 0.1.7 in Makefile.PL results in that version going into
230 the .xs file as well as the dist name. Then everything breaks.
232 0.001007 - 2008-06-01
233 - bail on SvGROW during declare process since that can't work
234 - use a source filter on files and an op wrap on evals to pre-grow
235 PL_linestr so we don't get to the point of needing to bail
237 0.001006 - 2007-11-26
238 - nasty goto &$func hack to avoid :lvalue+list context weirdness
239 - correct SvGROW invocation
241 0.001005 - 2007-11-09
242 - stop using & prototypes at all
244 0.001004 - 2007-10-25
245 - correct idiotic typo if ifndef
247 0.001003 - 2007-10-25
248 - internalise definitions for toke.c chunks to save hassle
249 - make NEWSV macro defined via ifndef rather than version check in case
250 of 5.8.8-maint (and 5.8.9)
252 0.001002 - 2007-10-21
253 - compilation fixes for 5.9.5 and -DDEBUGGING
255 0.001001 - 2007-10-17
256 - compilation fixes for 5.8.1+
257 - set Makefile.PL to bomb out for <5.8.1
259 0.001000 - 2007-09-23
260 - Initial release to CPAN
