680 =item Perl4 to Perl5 Traps
682 Discontinuance, Deprecation, and BugFix traps, Parsing Traps, Numerical
683 Traps, General data type traps, Context Traps - scalar, list contexts,
684 Precedence Traps, General Regular Expression Traps using s///, etc,
685 Subroutine, Signal, Sorting Traps, OS Traps, DBM Traps, Unclassified Traps
687 =item Discontinuance, Deprecation, and BugFix traps
689 Symbols starting with "_" no longer forced into main, Double-colon valid
690 package separator in variable name, 2nd and 3rd args to C<splice()> are now
691 in scalar context, Can't do C<goto> into a block that is optimized away,
692 Can't use whitespace as variable name or quote delimiter, C<while/if BLOCK
693 BLOCK> gone, C<**> binds tighter than unary minus, C<foreach> changed when
694 iterating over a list, C<split> with no args behavior changed, B<-e>
695 behavior fixed, C<push> returns number of elements in resulting list, Some
696 error messages differ, C<split()> honors subroutine args, Bugs removed
700 Space between . and = triggers syntax error, Better parsing in perl 5,
701 Function parsing, String interpolation of C<$#array> differs, Perl guesses
702 on C<map>, C<grep> followed by C<{> if it starts BLOCK or hash ref
704 =item Numerical Traps
706 Formatted output and significant digits, Auto-increment operator over
707 signed int limit deleted, Assignment of return values from numeric equality
708 tests doesn't work, Bitwise string ops
710 =item General data type traps
712 Negative array subscripts now count from the end of array, Setting
713 C<$#array> lower now discards array elements, Hashes get defined before
714 use, Glob assignment from localized variable to variable, Assigning
715 C<undef> to glob, Changes in unary negation (of strings), Modifying of
716 constants prohibited, C<defined $var> behavior changed, Variable Suicide
718 =item Context Traps - scalar, list contexts
720 Elements of argument lists for formats evaluated in list context,
721 C<caller()> returns false value in scalar context if no caller present,
722 Comma operator in scalar context gives scalar context to args, C<sprintf()>
723 prototyped as C<($;@)>
725 =item Precedence Traps
727 LHS vs. RHS of any assignment operator, Semantic errors introduced due to
728 precedence, Precedence of assignment operators same as the precedence of
729 assignment, C<open> requires parentheses around filehandle, C<$:>
730 precedence over C<$::> gone, Precedence of file test operators documented,
731 C<keys>, C<each>, C<values> are regular named unary operators
733 =item General Regular Expression Traps using s///, etc.
735 C<s'$lhs'$rhs'> interpolates on either side, C<m//g> attaches its state to
736 the searched string, C<m//o> used within an anonymous sub, C<$+> isn't set
737 to whole match, Substitution now returns null string if it fails,
738 C<s`lhs`rhs`> is now a normal substitution, Stricter parsing of variables
739 in regular expressions, C<m?x?> matches only once, Failed matches don't
740 reset the match variables
742 =item Subroutine, Signal, Sorting Traps
744 Barewords that used to look like strings look like subroutine calls,
745 Reverse is no longer allowed as the name of a sort subroutine, C<warn()>
746 won't let you specify a filehandle
750 SysV resets signal handler correctly, SysV C<seek()> appends correctly
752 =item Interpolation Traps
754 C<@> always interpolates an array in double-quotish strings, Double-quoted
755 strings may no longer end with an unescaped $, Arbitrary expressions are
756 evaluated inside braces within double quotes, C<$$x> now tries to
757 dereference $x, Creation of hashes on the fly with C<eval "EXPR"> requires
758 protection, Bugs in earlier perl versions, Array and hash brackets during
759 interpolation, Interpolation of C<\$$foo{bar}>, C<qq()> string passed to
760 C<eval> will not find string terminator
764 Perl5 must have been linked with same dbm/ndbm as the default for
765 C<dbmopen()>, DBM exceeding limit on the key/value size will cause perl5 to
768 =item Unclassified Traps
770 C<require>/C<do> trap using returned value, C<split> on empty string with

23317 (using the C<PL_files> property), 3. If the C<ssh_feature> is available, I
23318 ask if the user wishes to perform the ssh tests (since it requires a little
