If you wish to correspond about any of them, please +include the bug number (if any). + +Changes specific to the Configure and build process are described +at the bottom. + +Added APPLLIB_EXP for embedded perl library support. +Files patched: perl.c + +Couldn't define autoloaded routine by assignment to typeglob. +Files patched: pp_hot.c sv.c + +NETaa13525: Tiny patch to fix installman -n +From: Larry Wall +Files patched: installman + +NETaa13525: de-documented \v +Files patched: pod/perlop.pod pod/perlre.pod + +NETaa13525: doc changes +Files patched: pod/perlop.pod pod/perltrap.pod + +NETaa13525: perlxs update from Dean Roehrich +Files patched: pod/perlxs.pod + +NETaa13525: rename powerunix to powerux +Files patched: MANIFEST hints/powerux.sh + +NETaa13540: VMS uses CLK_TCK for HZ +Files patched: pp_sys.c + +NETaa13721: pad_findlex core dumps on bad CvOUTSIDE() +From: Carl Witty +Files patched: op.c sv.c toke.c + Each CV has a reference to the CV containing it lexically. Unfortunately, + it didn't reference-count this reference, so when the outer CV was freed, + we ended up with a pointer to memory that got reused later as some other kind + of SV. + +NETaa13721: warning suppression +Files patched: toke.c + (same) + +NETaa13722: walk.c had inconsistent static declarations +From: Tim Bunce +Files patched: x2p/walk.c + Consolidated the various declarations and made them consistent with + the actual definitions. + +NETaa13724: -MPackage=args patch +From: Tim Bunce +Files patched: perl.c pod/perlrun.pod + Added in the -MPackage=args patch too. + +NETaa13729: order-of-evaluation dependency in scope.c on leaving REGCONTEXT +From: "Jason Shirk" +Files patched: scope.c + Did + + I32 delta = SSPOPINT; + savestack_ix -= delta; /* regexp must have croaked */ + + instead. + +NETaa13731: couldn't assign external lexical array to itself +From: oneill@cs.sfu.ca +Files patched: op.c + The pad_findmy routine was only checking previous statements for previous + mention of external lexicals, so the fact that the current statement + already mentioned @list was not noted. It therefore allocated another + reference to the outside lexical, and this didn't compare equal when + the assigment parsing code was trying to determine whether there was a + common variable on either side of the equals. Since it didn't see the + same variable, it thought it could avoid making copies of the values on + the stack during list assignment. Unfortunately, before using those + values, the list assignment has to zero out the target array, which + destroys the values. + + The fix was to make pad_findmy search the current statement as well. This + was actually a holdover from some old code that was trying to delay + introduction of "my" variables until the next statement. This is now + done with a different mechanism, so the fix should not adversely affect + that. + +NETaa13733: s/// doesn't free old string when using copy mode +From: Larry Wall +Files patched: pp_ctl.c pp_hot.c + When I removed the use of sv_replace(), I simply forgot to free the old char*. + +NETaa13736: closures leaked memory +From: Carl Witty +Files patched: op.c pp.c + This is a specific example of a more general bug, fixed as NETaa13760, having + to do with reference counts on comppads. + +NETaa13739: XSUB interface caches gimme in case XSUB clobbers it +From: Dean Roehrich +Files patched: pp_hot.c + Applied suggest patch. Also deleted second gimme declaration as redundant. + +NETaa13760: comppad reference counts were inconsistent +From: Larry Wall +Files patched: op.c perl.c pp_ctl.c toke.c + All official references to comppads are supposed to be through compcv now, + but the transformation was not complete, resulting in memory leakage. + +NETaa13761: sv_2pv() wrongly preferred IV to NV when SV was readonly +From: "Jack R. Lawler" +Files patched: sv.c + Okay, I understand how this one happened. This is a case where a + beneficial fix uncovered a bug elsewhere. I changed the constant + folder to prefer integer results over double if the numbers are the + same. In this case, they aren't, but it leaves the integer value there + anyway because the storage is already allocated for it, and it *might* + be used in an integer context. And since it's producing a constant, it + sets READONLY. Unfortunately, sv_2pv() bogusly preferred the integer + value to the double when READONLY was set. This never showed up if you + just said + + print 1.4142135623731; + + because in that case, there was already a string value. + + +NETaa13772: shmwrite core dumps consistently +From: Gabe Schaffer +Files patched: opcode.h opcode.pl + The shmwrite operator is a list operator but neglected to push a stack + mark beforehand, because an 'm' was missing from opcode.pl. + +NETaa13773: $. was misdocumented as read-only. +From: Inaba Hiroto +Files patched: pod/perlvar.pod + <1.array-element-read-only> + % perl -le '$,=", "; $#w=5; for (@w) { $_=1; } print @w' + Modification of a read-only value attempted at -e line 1. + % perl4 -le '$,=", "; $#w=5; for (@w) { $_=1; } print @w' + 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 + + This one may stay the way it is for performance reasons. + + <2.begin-local-RS> + % cat abc + a + b + c + % perl -e 'BEGIN { local $/ = ""; } print "$.:$_" while <>;' abc + 1:a + b + c + % perl -e '{ local $/ = ""; } print "$.:$_" while <>;' abc + 1:a + 2:b + 3:c + + $/ wasn't initialized early enough, so local set it back to permanently + undefined on exit from the block. + + <3.grep-x0-bug> + % perl -le 'print grep(/^-/ ?

It could consequently get out of sync if + unexpectedly unwound. + +NETaa13785: GIMME sometimes used wrong context frame +From: Greg Earle +Files patched: embed.h global.sym op.h pp_ctl.c proto.h + The expression inside the return was taking its context from the immediately + surrounding block rather than the innermost surrounding subroutine call. + +NETaa13797: could modify sv_undef through auto-vivification +From: Ilya Zakharevich +Files patched: pp.c + Inserted the missing check for readonly values on auto-vivification. + +NETaa13798: if (...) {print} treats print as quoted +From: Larry Wall +Files patched: toke.c + The trailing paren of the condition was setting expectations to XOPERATOR + rather than XBLOCK, so it was being treated like ${print}. + +NETaa13926: commonality was not detected in assignments using COND_EXPR +From: Mark Hanson +Files patched: opcode.h opcode.pl + The assignment compiler didn't check the 2nd and 3rd args of a ?: + for commonality.

All values must be read before it will start over. In a list + context this isn't important, because you automatically get them all + anyway. In a scalar context, however, the operator returns the next value + each time it is called, or a FALSE value if you've just run out. Again, + FALSE is returned only once. So if you're expecting a single value from + a glob, it is much better to say + + ($file) = ; + + than + + $file = ; + + because the latter will alternate between returning a filename and + returning FALSE. + + +NETaa13986: split ignored /m pattern modifier +From: Winfried Koenig +Files patched: pp.c + Fixed to work like m// and s///. + +NETaa13992: regexp comments not seen after + in non-extended regexp +From: Mark Knutsen +Files patched: regcomp.c + The code to skip regexp comments was guarded by a conditional that only + let it work when /x was in effect. + +NETaa14014: use subs should not count as definition, only as declaration +From: Keith Thompson +Files patched: sv.c + On *foo = \&bar, doesn't set GVf_IMPORTED if foo and bar are in same package. + +NETaa14021: sv_inc and sv_dec "upgraded" magical SV to non-magical +From: Paul A Sand +Also: Andreas Koenig +Files patched: sv.c + The sv_inc() and sv_dec() routines "upgraded" null magical SVs to non-magical. + +NETaa14086: require should check tainting +From: Karl Simon Berg +Files patched: pp_ctl.c + Since we shouldn't allow tainted requires anyway, it now says: + + Insecure dependency in require while running with -T switch at tst.pl line 1. + +NETaa14104: negation fails on magical variables like $1 +From: tim +Files patched: pp.c + Negation was failing on magical values like $1.

Most of these will not be visible to the +ordinary user--they just make the process more robust and likely to +work on a wider range of platforms. + +This is a brief summary of the most important changes. A more +detailed description is given below. + + Slightly changed installation directories. See INSTALL. + + Include 5.000 - 5.001 upgrage notes :-) (see below). You might + want to read through them as well as these notes. + + Install documentation for perl modules and pod2* translators. You can + now view perl module documentation with either your system's man(1) + program or with the supplied perldoc script. + + Many hint file updates. + + Improve and simplify detection of local libraries and header files. + + Expand documentation of installation process in new INSTALL file. + + Try to reduce Unixisms (such as SH file extraction) to enhance + portability to other platforms. There's still a long way to go. + +Upgrade Traps and Pitfalls: + +Since a lot has changed in the build process, you are probably best off +starting with a fresh copy of the perl5.002 sources. In particular, +your 5.000 or 5.001 config.sh will contain several variables that are no +longer needed. Further, improvements in the Configure tests may mean +that some of the answers will be different than they were in previous +versions, and which answer to keep can be difficult to sort out. +Therefore, you are probably better off ignoring your old config.sh, as +in the following: + + make -k distclean # (if you've built perl before) + rm -f config.sh # (in case distclean mysteriously fails) + sh Configure [whatever options you like] + make depend + make + make test + +This, and much more, is described in the new INSTALL file. + +Here are the detailed changes from 5.002beta1 to
