The operations were working fine, though, + because atof() was using the local locale. + Both problems reported by Stefan Vogtner. + + Introduced a wrapper for atof() that attempts to convert + the string both ways. This helps Perl to understand + numbers like this "4.56" even when using a local locale + makes atof() understand only numbers like this "7,89". + + Remaining related problems, both of which existed before + this patch and continue to exist after this patch: + (a) The behaviour of print() is _not_ as documented by perllocale. + Instead of always using the C locale, print() does use the + local locale, just like the *printf() do. This may be fixable + now that switching to-and-fro between locales has been made + more consistent, but fixing print() would change existing + behaviour. perllocale is not changed by this patch. + (b) If a number has been stringified (say, via "$number") under + a local locale, the cached string value persists even under + "no locale". This may or may not be a problem: operations + work fine because the original number is still there, but + that the string form keeps its locale-ish outlook may be + somewhat confusing. + Branch: cfgperl + ! dump.c embed.h embed.pl embedvar.h global.sym intrpvar.h mg.c + ! objXSUB.h op.c perl.c perl.h perlvars.h pp.c pp_ctl.c + ! pp_proto.h pp_sys.c proto.h sv.c t/pragma/locale.t toke.c + ! util.c +____________________________________________________________________________ +[ 3541] By: jhi on 1999/06/17 20:00:16 + Log: Integrate from mainperl. + Branch: cfgperl + !> ext/Data/Dumper/Dumper.pm op.c +____________________________________________________________________________ +[ 3540] By: gsar on 1999/06/16 16:49:55 + Log: dump C<0> as such, not C<'0'> + Branch: perl + ! ext/Data/Dumper/Dumper.pm +____________________________________________________________________________ +[ 3539] By: gsar on 1999/06/13 04:04:40 + Log: fix coredumper in change#3498 + Branch: perl + ! op.c +____________________________________________________________________________ +[ 3538] By: jhi on 1999/06/12 22:01:26 + Log: Integrate from mainperl. + Branch: cfgperl + +> lib/caller.pm + !> (integrate 36 files) +____________________________________________________________________________ +[ 3537] By: gsar on 1999/06/12 06:43:03 + Log: EXTERN_C declarations for global arrays in various + headers, so perl can be built even in C++ mode; win32 + build fixups; regen headers + Branch: perl + !
