1 Revision history for Devel-Declare
4 - use ppport.h for compatibility with earlier perls
7 - update to work with Perl 5.31.7 (Karl Williamson, github PR#1)
10 - added deprecated flag to metadata. No deprecation warning is given at
12 - added "WARNING" section in pod, advising the deprecated status of this
16 - tests fixed for blead (5.21.*) (Matthew Horsfall, RT#102918)
19 - fix for changes in 5.21.4 (Avoid creating GVs when subs are declared),
20 RT#99102, Father Chrysostomos
23 - fixed syntax error in a test
26 - fix use of wrong sprintf formatting codes (Zefram, RT#91983)
29 - converted dist to Distar
32 - re-release, because Module::Install is AWESOME!
35 - Updates for some deprecations in perl 5.17. (Zefram, RT#83968)
38 - In XS, use PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT for efficiency.
39 - Avoid using Test::Warn, which has previously been a troublesome
43 - Fix workaround for unexported core symbols to avoid breaking
44 compilation on non-threading builds of Perl 5.8.
45 - Set permissions on .perldb file created during test, to avoid
46 "insecure rcfile" warning.
49 - Be adaptive about whether to delete the line reallocation filter,
50 so as to play as nicely as possible with other kinds of source filter.
51 - Document that injecting newlines doesn't work.
52 - Fix a C declaration after statement, which broke compatibility with
53 older compilers (Jan Dubois).
54 - Partially work around unexported core symbols affecting Perl 5.8 on
55 Windows (David Bouyssie).
56 - Jump through some hoops to avoid compiler warnings.
59 - Adjust toke_scan_str logic to always leave the prefix part of
63 - Depend on B::Hooks::OP::Check version 0.19, which fixes a serious bug in
64 how it interacts with other modules that hook ops.
65 - Initialize immediately upon loading the module, so that "was Devel::Declare
66 loaded soon enough" errors in string eval can be fixed by loading the
67 module earlier without having to also actually use the module earlier.
68 - Adjust toke_scan_str logic to always show a positive effective length of
70 - Return undef from toke_scan_str if string was unterminated.
71 - Detect and croak if unwanted reallocation occurs during toke_scan_str.
72 - Avoid memory leak in toke_scan_str.
73 - Give Devel::Declare::Context::Simple a version number.
74 - Add MYMETA.{json,yml} to MANIFEST.SKIP and .gitignore.
77 - Increase default linestr size to avoid reallocations (Zefram).
80 - Add a flag for controlling 'redefined' warnings when installing subs into
84 - Bail out earlier when being called while not lexing (Zefram).
85 - Make sure we continue working with Devel::CallParser loaded (Zefram).
88 - Fix test-failures on old perl versions (Zefram).
91 - Re-add Support for very early growing of PL_linestr using filters (Zefram).
94 - Support perl >= 5.13.7 by re-allocating PL_linestr in block hooks (Zefram).
97 - Make things work on perl 5.11.2 and newer (Zefram).
100 - Add tests for not interpreting various things as barewords when they
102 - Depend on a Test::More with done_testing support.
103 - Don't invoke the const callback for a keyword followed by a fat comma.
105 0.005010 - 2009-08-11
106 - Don't invoke the linestr callback if we found a keyword and the bufptr
107 still contains an arrow at its beginning. This causes the linestr callback
108 not to be fired on things like "->method" (if method is a declarator).
109 While this might be useful, it mostly caused problems so far. It might be
110 added again later as a separate feature.
112 0.005009 - 2009-08-10
113 - Stop mixing declarations with code. (Closes: RT#48548) (Cosimo Streppone)
114 - Move strip_attrs, which is a purely parsing method, from
115 MethodInstaller::Simple to Context::Simple (nperez).
117 0.005008 - 2009-07-27
118 - Depend on the latest ExtUtils::Depends for win32+gcc support.
119 - Conditionally expand linestrings under perl debugger.
121 0.005007 - 2009-07-13
122 - Fix line numbers not being updated from skipspace calls
124 0.005006 - 2009-06-16
125 - Fix compilation on 5.8 perls.
127 0.005005 - 2009-06-05
128 - Improve compatibility with MAD-enabled perls
129 (Reini Urban, Closes RT#45779).
131 0.005004 - 2009-06-03
132 - Don't redefine MEM_WRAP_CHECK_ if it's already defined, getting rid of
133 compilation errors on some perls (Maik Fischer).
135 0.005003 - 2009-05-24
136 - Failing tests for line number issues (Ash Berlin).
137 - Add strip_names_and_args (Cory Watson).
138 - Various pod fixes (Yanick Champoux, Florian Ragwitz).
139 - Add copyright statements.
141 0.005002 - 2009-05-10
142 - Don't invoke the linestr callback if the parser was expecting an operator.
143 This makes calling a method with the name of a declarator work.
145 0.005001 - 2009-05-06
146 - Implement skip_declarator in terms of scan_word in Context::Simple.
147 This avoids relying on PL_tokenbuf to skip past the declarator, as
148 PL_tokenbuf might be overwritten by compiling other code between calling
149 the linestr callback and skip_declarator.
151 0.005000 - 2009-04-18
152 - Port the documentation from %^H and Scope::Guard to B::Hooks::EndOfScope.
153 - Fix extracting multi-line strings using scan_str.
154 - Remove the nasty workaround for the above from Context::Simple.
156 0.004000 - 2009-04-10
157 - Much improved documentation (osfameron).
158 - Make sure the linestr callback isn't invoked when a declarator is used as
159 part of some quoting construct like qq//, m//, s///, qr//, tr///, qx//, ``,
160 etc (Florian Ragwitz).
161 - Tests for this (osfameron, Florian Ragwitz).
163 0.003005 - 2009-03-30
164 - Depend on a recent B::Hooks::EndOfScope to make semicolon injection more
165 robust (Florian Ragwitz).
166 - Add a couple of TODO tests for better error reporting (Marcus Ramberg).
167 - Context::Simple::inject_if_block now returns true if start of block was
170 0.003004 - 2008-12-11
171 - Make magic work within string evals on 5.10 if the hints hash is used.
172 - Bind S_scan_ident to perl. It allows scanning for simple identifiers.
173 - Add strip_ident to Context::Simple.
175 0.003003 - 2008-10-27
176 - Devel::Declare::MethodInstaller::Simple now has code_for() which the
177 subclass can override to monkey with the magic shadowed subroutine.
178 This is handy if you want to employ Devel::BeginLift.
180 0.003002 - 2008-10-25
181 - Depend on Sub::Name and B::Hooks::EndOfScope. MethodInstaller::Simple and
182 Context::Simple use them.
184 0.003001 - 2008-10-25
185 - Don't use :lvalue in Context::Simple and MethodInstaller::Simple to keep
188 0.003000 - 2008-10-24
189 - Add Devel::Declare::Context::Simple and
190 Devel::Declare::MethodInstaller::Simple as an experimental way to make
191 creating block- and sub-like keywords easier (Rhesa Rozendaal).
193 0.002999_01 - 2008-10-24
194 - Use B::Hooks::OP::Check to register PL_check callbacks.
195 - Use B::Hooks::EndOfScope instead of %^H and Scope::Guard.
196 - Don't segfault if HvNAME(PL_curstash) == NULL.
197 - Don't segfault on 5.9.5+, where PL_parser is a symbol, not a define.
198 - Don't delete the previous symbol table entry when shadowing subs. This
199 makes us work within the debugger.
200 - Don't mix declarations and code.
202 0.002002 - 2008-10-19
203 - switch done_declare call from call_argv to call_pv.
204 - Make get_linestr{,_offset} return sensible values when called while the
205 parser isn't running.
206 - Remove several compile time warnings.
207 - Allow enabling of debug mode using $ENV{DD_DEBUG}.
209 0.002001 - 2008-10-04
210 - clean up checks for whether we're lexing and whether lex_stuff exists
211 to handle the PL_parser factor-out in 5.10
212 - check if reallocation of PL_linestr is necessary before doing it. this way
213 we can bail out properly instead of corrupting memory in some cases
214 - don't call strlen twice on the same sting
215 - try to be more portable
217 - don't use Perl_* functions directly.
218 - don't define PERL_CORE
219 - use NEWSV from handy.h instead of defining our own
220 - don't define PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT
221 - don't support preprocessors (perl -P)
223 0.002000 - 2008-09-19
224 - rewrite guts into perl, add tests for new declaration style
226 0.001011 - 2008-06-04
227 - add support for 'method main' and other package names
229 0.001010 - 2008-06-04
230 - fix traits code, again, so it compiles on 5.10.
232 0.001009 - 2008-06-03
233 - only mangle evals if o->op_ppaddr is actually PL_ppaddr[OP_ENTERVAL]
234 - don't set OPf_SPECIAL on entereval ops, mistaken cargo cult from autobox
235 - fix traits code to work on older 5.8.x perls
237 0.001008 - 2008-06-01
238 - turns out 0.1.7 in Makefile.PL results in that version going into
239 the .xs file as well as the dist name. Then everything breaks.
241 0.001007 - 2008-06-01
242 - bail on SvGROW during declare process since that can't work
243 - use a source filter on files and an op wrap on evals to pre-grow
244 PL_linestr so we don't get to the point of needing to bail
246 0.001006 - 2007-11-26
247 - nasty goto &$func hack to avoid :lvalue+list context weirdness
248 - correct SvGROW invocation
250 0.001005 - 2007-11-09
251 - stop using & prototypes at all
253 0.001004 - 2007-10-25
254 - correct idiotic typo if ifndef
256 0.001003 - 2007-10-25
257 - internalise definitions for toke.c chunks to save hassle
258 - make NEWSV macro defined via ifndef rather than version check in case
259 of 5.8.8-maint (and 5.8.9)
261 0.001002 - 2007-10-21
262 - compilation fixes for 5.9.5 and -DDEBUGGING
264 0.001001 - 2007-10-17
265 - compilation fixes for 5.8.1+
266 - set Makefile.PL to bomb out for <5.8.1
268 0.001000 - 2007-09-23
269 - Initial release to CPAN
