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

6173 implementation?, Backwards compatibility, Could it be a module instead?, Is
6174 the feature generic enough?, Does it potentially introduce new bugs?, Does
6175 it preclude other desirable features?, Is the implementation robust?, Is
6176 the implementation generic enough to be portable?, Is the implementation
6177 tested?, Is there enough documentation?, Is there another way to do it?,
6178 Does it create too much work?, Patches speak louder than words
