Version 5.001
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Nearly all the changes for 5.001 were bug fixes of one variety or another,
|
|
so here's the bug list, along with the "resolution" for each of them. If
|
|
you wish to correspond about any of them, please include the bug number.
|
|
|
|
There were a few that can be construed as enhancements:
|
|
NETaa13059: now warns of use of \1 where $1 is necessary.
|
|
NETaa13512: added $SIG{__WARN__} and $SIG{__DIE__} hooks
|
|
NETaa13520: added closures
|
|
NETaa13530: scalar keys now resets hash iterator
|
|
NETaa13641: added Tim's fancy new import whizbangers
|
|
NETaa13710: cryptswitch needed to be more "useable"
|
|
NETaa13716: Carp now allows multiple packages to be skipped out of
|
|
NETaa13716: now counts imported routines as "defined" for redef warnings
|
|
(and, of course, much of the stuff from the perl5-porters)
|
|
|
|
NETaa12974: README incorrectly said it was a pre-release.
|
|
Files patched: README
|
|
|
|
NETaa13033: goto pushed a bogus scope on the context stack.
|
|
From: Steve Vinoski
|
|
Files patched: pp_ctl.c
|
|
The goto operator pushed an extra bogus scope onto the context stack. (This
|
|
often didn't matter, since many things pop extra unrecognized scopes off.)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13034: tried to get valid pointer from undef.
|
|
From: Castor Fu
|
|
Also: Achille Hui, the Day Dreamer
|
|
Also: Eric Arnold
|
|
Files patched: pp_sys.c
|
|
Now treats undef specially, and calls SvPV_force on any non-numeric scalar
|
|
value to get a real pointer to somewhere.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13035: included package info with filehandles.
|
|
From: Jack Shirazi - BIU
|
|
Files patched: pp_hot.c pp_sys.c
|
|
Now passes a glob to filehandle methods to keep the package info intact.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13048: didn't give strict vars message on every occurrence.
|
|
From: Doug Campbell
|
|
Files patched: gv.c
|
|
It now complains about every occurrence. (The bug resulted from an
|
|
ill-conceived attempt to suppress a duplicate error message in a
|
|
suboptimal fashion.)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13052: test for numeric sort sub return value fooled by taint magic.
|
|
From: Peter Jaspers-Fayer
|
|
Files patched: pp_ctl.c sv.h
|
|
The test to see if the sort sub return value was numeric looked at the
|
|
public flags rather than the private flags of the SV, so taint magic
|
|
hid that info from the sort.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13053: forced a2p to use byacc
|
|
From: Andy Dougherty
|
|
Files patched: MANIFEST x2p/Makefile.SH x2p/a2p.c
|
|
a2p.c is now pre-byacced and shipped with the kit.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13055: misnamed constant in previous patch.
|
|
From: Conrad Augustin
|
|
Files patched: op.c op.h toke.c
|
|
The tokener translates $[ to a constant, but with a special marking in case
|
|
the constant gets assigned to or localized. Unfortunately, the marking
|
|
was done with a combination of OPf_SPECIAL and OPf_MOD that was easily
|
|
spoofed. There is now a private OPpCONST_ARYLEN flag for this purpose.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13055: use of OPf_SPECIAL for $[ lvaluehood was too fragile.
|
|
Files patched: op.c op.h toke.c
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13056: convert needs to throw away any number info on its list.
|
|
From: Jack Shirazi - BIU
|
|
Files patched: op.c
|
|
The listiness of the argument list leaked out to the subroutine call because
|
|
of how prepend_elem and append_elem reuse an existing list. The convert()
|
|
routine just needs to discard any listiness it finds on its argument.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13058: AUTOLOAD shouldn't assume size of @_ is meaningful.
|
|
From: Florent Guillaume
|
|
Files patched: ext/DB_File/DB_File.pm ext/Fcntl/Fcntl.pm ext/GDBM_File/GDBM_File.pm ext/Socket/Socket.pm h2xs.SH
|
|
I just deleted the optimization, which is silly anyway since the eventual
|
|
subroutine definition is cached.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13059: now warns of use of \1 where $1 is necessary.
|
|
From: Gustaf Neumann
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
Now says
|
|
|
|
Can't use \1 to mean $1 in expression at foo line 2
|
|
|
|
along with an explanation in perldiag.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13060: no longer warns on attempt to read <> operator's transition state.
|
|
From: Chaim Frenkel
|
|
Files patched: pp_hot.c
|
|
No longer warns on <> operator's transitional state.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13140: warning said $ when @ would be more appropriate.
|
|
From: David J. MacKenzie
|
|
Files patched: op.c pod/perldiag.pod
|
|
Now says
|
|
|
|
(Did you mean $ or @ instead of %?)
|
|
|
|
and added more explanation to perldiag.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13149: was reading freed memory to make incorrect error message.
|
|
Files patched: pp_ctl.c
|
|
It was reading freed memory to make an error message that would be
|
|
incorrect in any event because it had the inner filename rather than
|
|
the outer.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13149: confess was sometimes less informative than croak
|
|
From: Jack Shirazi
|
|
Files patched: lib/Carp.pm
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13150: stderr needs to be STDERR in package
|
|
From: Jack Shirazi
|
|
Files patched: lib/File/CheckTree.pm
|
|
Also fixed pl2pm to translate the filehandles to uppercase.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13150: uppercases stdin, stdout and stderr
|
|
Files patched: pl2pm
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13154: array assignment didn't notice package magic.
|
|
From: Brian Reichert
|
|
Files patched: pp_hot.c
|
|
The list assignment operator looked for only set magic, but set magic is
|
|
only on the elements of a magical hash, not on the hash as a whole. I made
|
|
the operator look for any magic at all on the target array or hash.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13155: &DB::DB left trash on the stack.
|
|
From: Thomas Koenig
|
|
Files patched: lib/perl5db.pl pp_ctl.c
|
|
The call by pp_dbstate() to &DB::DB left trash on the stack. It now
|
|
calls DB in list context, and DB returns ().
|
|
|
|
NETaa13156: lexical variables didn't show up in debugger evals.
|
|
From: Joergen Haegg
|
|
Files patched: op.c
|
|
The code that searched back up the context stack for the lexical scope
|
|
outside the eval only partially took into consideration that there
|
|
might be extra debugger subroutine frames that shouldn't be used, and
|
|
ended up comparing the wrong statement sequence number to the range of
|
|
valid sequence numbers for the scope of the lexical variable. (There
|
|
was also a bug fixed in passing that caused the scope of lexical to go
|
|
clear to the end of the subroutine even if it was within an inner block.)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13157: any request for autoloaded DESTROY should create a null one.
|
|
From: Tom Christiansen
|
|
Files patched: lib/AutoLoader.pm
|
|
If DESTROY.al is not located, it now creates sub DESTROY {} automatically.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13158: now preserves $@ around destructors while leaving eval.
|
|
From: Tim Bunce
|
|
Files patched: pp_ctl.c
|
|
Applied supplied patch, except the whole second hunk can be replaced with
|
|
|
|
sv_insert(errsv, 0, 0, message, strlen(message));
|
|
|
|
NETaa13160: clarified behavior of split without arguments
|
|
From: Harry Edmon
|
|
Files patched: pod/perlfunc.pod
|
|
Clarified the behavior of split without arguments.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13162: eval {} lost list/scalar context
|
|
From: Dov Grobgeld
|
|
Files patched: op.c
|
|
LEAVETRY didn't propagate number to ENTERTRY.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13163: clarified documentation of foreach using my variable
|
|
From: Tom Christiansen
|
|
Files patched: pod/perlsyn.pod
|
|
Explained that foreach using a lexical is still localized.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13164: the dot detector for the end of formats was over-rambunctious.
|
|
From: John Stoffel
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
The dot detector for the end of formats was over-rambunctious. It would
|
|
pick up any dot that didn't have a space in front of it.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13165: do {} while 1 never linked outer block into next chain.
|
|
From: Gisle Aas
|
|
Files patched: op.c
|
|
When the conditional of do {} while 1; was optimized away, it confused the
|
|
postfix order construction so that the block that ordinarily sits around the
|
|
whole loop was never executed. So when the loop tried to unstack between
|
|
iterations, it got the wrong context, and blew away the lexical variables
|
|
of the outer scope. Fixed it by introducing a NULL opcode that will be
|
|
optimized away later.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13167: coercion was looking at public bits rather than private bits.
|
|
From: Randal L. Schwartz
|
|
Also: Thomas Riechmann
|
|
Also: Shane Castle
|
|
Files patched: sv.c
|
|
There were some bad ifdefs around the various varieties of set*id(). In
|
|
addition, tainting was interacting badly with assignment to $> because
|
|
sv_2iv() was examining SvPOK rather than SvPOKp, and so couldn't coerce
|
|
a string uid to an integer one.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13167: had some ifdefs wrong on set*id.
|
|
Files patched: mg.c pp_hot.c
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13168: relaxed test for comparison of new and old fds
|
|
From: Casper H.S. Dik
|
|
Files patched: t/lib/posix.t
|
|
I relaxed the comparison to just check that the new fd is greater.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13169: autoincrement can corrupt scalar value state.
|
|
From: Gisle Aas
|
|
Also: Tom Christiansen
|
|
Files patched: sv.c
|
|
It assumed a PV didn't need to be upgraded to become an NV.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13169: previous patch could leak a string pointer.
|
|
Files patched: sv.c
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13170: symbols missing from global.sym
|
|
From: Tim Bunce
|
|
Files patched: global.sym
|
|
Applied suggested patch.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13171: \\ in <<'END' shouldn't reduce to \.
|
|
From: Randal L. Schwartz
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
<<'END' needed to bypass ordinary single-quote processing.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13172: 'use integer' turned off magical autoincrement.
|
|
From: Erich Rickheit KSC
|
|
Files patched: pp.c pp_hot.c
|
|
The integer versions of the increment and decrement operators were trying too
|
|
hard to be efficient.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13172: deleted duplicate increment and decrement code
|
|
Files patched: opcode.h opcode.pl pp.c
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13173: install should make shared libraries executable.
|
|
From: Brian Grossman
|
|
Also: Dave Nadler
|
|
Also: Eero Pajarre
|
|
Files patched: installperl
|
|
Now gives permission 555 to any file ending with extension specified by $dlext.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13176: ck_rvconst didn't free the const it used up.
|
|
From: Nick Duffek
|
|
Files patched: op.c
|
|
I checked in many random memory leaks under this bug number, since it
|
|
was an eval that brought many of them out.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13176: didn't delete XRV for temp ref of destructor.
|
|
Files patched: sv.c
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13176: didn't delete op_pmshort in matching operators.
|
|
Files patched: op.c
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13176: eval leaked the name of the eval.
|
|
Files patched: scope.c
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13176: gp_free didn't free the format.
|

Files patched: gv.c
|

(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13176: minor leaks in loop exits and constant subscript optimization.
|
|
Files patched: op.c
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13176: plugged some duplicate struct allocation memory leaks.
|
|
Files patched: perl.c
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13176: sv_clear of an FM didn't clear anything.
|
|
Files patched: sv.c
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13176: tr/// didn't mortalize its return value.
|

Files patched: pp.c
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13177: SCOPE optimization hid line number info
|
|
From: David J. MacKenzie
|
|
Also: Hallvard B Furuseth
|
|
Files patched: op.c
|
|
Every pass on the syntax tree has to keep track of the current statement.
|
|
Unfortunately, the single-statement block was optimized into a single
|
|
statement between the time the variable was parsed and the time the
|
|
void code scan was done, so that pass didn't see the OP_NEXTSTATE
|
|
operator, because it has been optimized to an OP_NULL.
|
|
|
|
Fortunately, null operands remember what they were, so it was pretty easy
|
|
to make it set the correct line number anyway.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13178: some linux doesn't handle nm well
|
|
From: Alan Modra
|
|
Files patched: hints/linux.sh
|
|
Applied supplied patch.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13180: localized slice now pre-extends array
|
|
From: Larry Schuler
|
|
Files patched: pp.c
|
|
A localized slice now pre-extends its array to avoid reallocation during
|
|
the scope of the local.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13181: m//g didn't keep track of whether previous match matched null.
|
|
From: "philippe.verdret"
|
|
Files patched: mg.h pp_hot.c
|
|
A pattern isn't allowed to match a null string in the same place twice in
|
|
a row. m//g wasn't keeping track of whether the previous match matched
|
|
the null string.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13182: now includes whitespace as a regexp metacharacter.
|
|
From: Larry Wall
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
scan_const() now counts " \t\n\r\f\v" as metacharacters when scanning a pattern.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13183: sv_setsv shouldn't try to clone an object.
|
|
From: Peter Gordon
|
|
Files patched: sv.c
|
|
The sv_mortalcopy() done by the return in STORE called sv_setsv(),
|
|
which cloned the object. sv_setsv() shouldn't be in the business of
|
|
cloning objects.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13184: bogus warning on quoted signal handler name removed.
|
|
From: Dan Carson
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
Now doesn't complain unless the first non-whitespace character after the =
|
|
is an alphabetic character.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13186: now croaks on chop($')
|
|
From: Casper H.S. Dik
|
|
Files patched: doop.c
|
|
Now croaks on chop($') and such.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13187: "${foo::bar}" now counts as mere delimitation, not as a bareword.
|
|
From: Jay Rogers
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
"${foo::bar}" now counts as mere delimitation, not as a bareword inside a
|
|
reference block.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13188: for backward compatibility, looks for "perl -" before "perl".
|
|
From: Russell Mosemann
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
Now allows non-whitespace characters on the #! line between the "perl"
|
|
and the "-".
|
|
|
|
NETaa13188: now allows non-whitespace after #!...perl before switches.
|
|
Files patched: toke.c

|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13189: derivative files need to be removed before recreation
|
|
From: Simon Leinen
|
|
Also: Dick Middleton
|
|
Also: David J. MacKenzie
|
|
Files patched: embed_h.sh x2p/Makefile.SH
|
|
Fixed various little nits as suggested in several messages.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13190: certain assignments can spoof pod directive recognizer
|
|
From: Ilya Zakharevich
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
The lexer now only recognizes pod directives where a statement is expected.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13194: now returns undef when there is no curpm.
|
|
From: lusol@Dillon.CC.Lehigh.EDU
|
|
Files patched: mg.c
|
|
Since there was no regexp prior to the "use", it was returning whatever the
|
|
last successful match was within the "use", because there was no current
|
|
regexp, so it treated it as a normal variable. It now returns undef.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13195: semop had one S too many.
|
|
From: Joachim Huober
|
|
Files patched: opcode.pl
|
|
The entry in opcode.pl had one too many S's.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13196: always assumes it's a Perl script if -c is used.
|
|
From: Dan Carson
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
It now will assume it's a Perl script if the -c switch is used.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13197: changed implicit -> message to be more understandable.
|
|
From: Bruce Barnett
|
|
Files patched: op.c pod/perldiag.pod
|
|
I changed the error message to be more understandable. It now says
|
|
|
|
Can't use subscript on sort...
|
|
|
|
|
|
NETaa13201: added OPpCONST_ENTERED flag to properly enter filehandle symbols.
|
|
From: E. Jay Berkenbilt
|
|
Also: Tom Christiansen
|
|
Files patched: op.c op.h toke.c
|
|
The grammatical reduction of a print statement didn't properly count
|
|
the filehandle as a symbol reference because it couldn't distinguish
|
|
between a symbol entered earlier in the program and a symbol entered
|
|
for the first time down in the lexer.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13203: README shouldn't mention uperl.o any more.
|
|
From: Anno Siegel
|
|
Files patched: README
|
|
|
|
NETaa13204: .= shouldn't warn on uninitialized target.
|
|
From: Pete Peterson
|
|
Files patched: pp_hot.c
|
|
No longer warns on uninitialized target of .= operator.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13206: handy macros in XSUB.h
|
|
From: Tim Bunce
|
|
Files patched: XSUB.h
|
|
Added suggested macros.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13228: commonality checker didn't treat lexicals as variables.
|
|
From: mcook@cognex.com
|
|
Files patched: op.c opcode.pl
|
|
The list assignment operator tries to avoid unnecessary copies by doing the
|
|
assignment directly if there are no common variables on either side of the
|
|
equals. Unfortunately, the code that decided that only recognized references
|
|
to dynamic variables, not lexical variables.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13229: fixed sign stuff for complement, integer coercion.
|
|
From: Larry Wall
|
|
Files patched: perl.h pp.c sv.c
|
|
Fixed ~0 and integer coercions.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13230: no longer tries to reuse scratchpad temps if tainting in effect.
|
|
From: Luca Fini
|
|
Files patched: op.c
|
|
I haven't reproduced it, but I believe the problem is the reuse of scratchpad
|
|
temporaries between statements. I've made it not try to reuse them if
|
|
tainting is in effect.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13231: *foo = *bar now prevents typo warnings on "foo"
|
|
From: Robin Barker
|
|
Files patched: sv.c
|
|
Aliasing of the form *foo = *bar is now protected from the typo warnings.
|
|
Previously only the *foo = \$bar form was.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13235: require BAREWORD now introduces package name immediately.
|
|
From: Larry Wall
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
require BAREWORD now introduces package name immediately. This lets the
|
|
method intuit code work right even though the require hasn't actually run
|
|
yet.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13289: didn't calculate correctly using arybase.
|
|
From: Jared Rhine
|
|
Files patched: pp.c pp_hot.c
|
|
The runtime code didn't use curcop->cop_arybase correctly.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13301: store now throws exception on error
|
|
From: Barry Friedman
|
|
Files patched: ext/GDBM_File/GDBM_File.xs ext/NDBM_File/NDBM_File.xs ext/ODBM_File/ODBM_File.xs ext/SDBM_File/SDBM_File.xs
|
|
Changed warn to croak in ext/*DBM_File/*.xs.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13302: ctime now takes Time_t rather than Time_t*.
|
|
From: Rodger Anderson
|
|
Files patched: ext/POSIX/POSIX.xs
|
|
Now declares a Time_t and takes the address of that in CODE.
|
|
|
|
NETaa13302: shorter way to do this patch
|
|
Files patched: ext/POSIX/POSIX.xs
|
|
(same)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13304: could feed too large $@ back into croak, whereupon it croaked.
|
|
From: Larry Wall
|
|
Files patched: perl.c
|
|
callist() could feed $@ back into croak with more than a bare %s. (croak()
|
|
handles long strings with a bare %s okay.)
|
|
|
|
NETaa13305: compiler misoptimized RHS to outside of s/a/print/e
|
|
From: Brian S. Cashman <bsc@umich.edu>

The syntax tree was being misconstructed because the compiler felt that

NETaa13314: assigning mortal to lexical leaks
|
|
From: Larry Wall

Files patched: sv.c
|

In stealing strings, sv_setsv was checking SvPOK to see if it should free

NETaa13329: needed to localize taint magic
|
|
From: Brian Katzung
|
|
Files patched: sv.c doio.c mg.c pp_hot.c pp_sys.c scope.c taint.c
|
|
Taint magic is now localized better, though I had to resort to a kludge
|
|
to allow a value to be both tainted and untainted simultaneously during
|
|
the assignment of
|
|
|
|
local $foo = $_[0];
|
|
|
|
when $_[0] is a reference to the variable $foo already.

NETaa13342: grep and map with block would enter block but never leave it.
|
|
From: Ian Phillipps
|
|
Files patched: op.c
|
|
The compiler use some sort-checking code to handle the arguments of
|
|
grep and map. Unfortunately, this wiped out the block exit opcode while
|
|
leaving the block entry opcode. This doesn't matter to sort, but did
|
|
matter to grep and map. It now leave the block entry intact.
|
|
|
|
The reason it worked without the my is because the block entry and exit
|
|
were optimized away to an OP_SCOPE, which it doesn't matter if it's there
|
|
or not.

NETaa13343: goto needed to longjmp when in a signal handler.

NETaa13344: strict vars shouldn't apply to globs or filehandles.
|
|
From: Andrew Wilcox
|
|
Files patched: gv.c
|
|
Filehandles and globs will be excepted from "strict vars", so that you can

NETaa13366: can't do block scope optimization on $1 et al when tainting.
|
|
From: Andrew Vignaux
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
The tainting mechanism assumes that every statement starts out
|
|
untainted. Unfortunately, the scope removal optimization for very
|
|
short blocks removed the statementhood of statements that were
|
|
attempting to read $1 as an untainted value, with the effect that $1
|
|
appeared to be tainted anyway. The optimization is now disabled when
|
|
tainting and the block contains $1 (or equivalent).
|
|
|
|
NETaa13366: fixed this a better way in toke.c.

NETaa13368: bigrat::norm sometimes chucked sign
|
|
From: Greg Kuperberg
|
|
Files patched: lib/bigrat.pl
|
|
The normalization routine was assuming that the gcd of two numbers was
|

never negative, and based on that assumption managed to move the sign
|

to the denominator, where it was deleted on the assumption that the

denominator is always positive.

NETaa13369: # is now a comment character, and \# should be left for regcomp.
|
|
From: Simon Parsons
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
It was not skipping the comment when it skipped the white space, and constructed
|
|
an opcode that tried to match a null string. Unfortunately, the previous
|
|
star tried to use the first character of the null string to optimize where
|
|
to recurse, so it never matched.

NETaa13376: suspected indirect objecthood prevented recognition of lexical.
|
|
From: Gisle.Aas@nr.no
|
|
Files patched: toke.c
|
|
When $data[0] is used in a spot that might be an indirect object, the lexer
|
|
was getting confused over the rule that says the $data in $$data[0] isn't
|
|
an array element. (The lexer uses XREF state for both indirect objects

|
and for variables used as names.)

NETaa13442: couldn't find name of copy of deleted symbol table entry
|
|
From: Spider Boardman
|
|
Files patched: gv.c gv.h
|
|
I did a much simpler fix. When gp_free notices that it's freeing the
|
|
master GV, it nulls out gp_egv. The GvENAME and GvESTASH macros know
|
|
to revert to gv if egv is null.
|
|
|
|
This has the advantage of not creating a reference loop.

When the newSUB and newXS routines checked for whether the old sub was

NETaa13451: in scalar context, pp_entersub now guarantees one item from XSUB
|
|
From: Nick Gianniotis
|
|
Files patched: pp_hot.c
|
|
The pp_entersub routine now guarantees that an XSUB in scalar context
|
|
returns one and only one value. If there are fewer, it pushes undef,
|
|
and if there are more, it returns the last one.

From: Andreas Koenig
|

When .*? did a probe of the rest of the string, it clobbered reginput,

so the next call to match a . tried to match the newline and failed.

NETaa13514: statements before intro of lex var could see lex var
|
|
From: William Setzer
|
|
Files patched: op.c
|
|
When a lexical variable is declared, introduction is delayed until
|
|
the start of the next statement, so that any initialization code runs
|
|
outside the scope of the new variable. Thus,
|
|
|
|
my $y = 3;
|
|
my $y = $y;
|
|
print $y;
|
|
|
|
should print 3. Unfortunately, the declaration was marked with the
|
|
beginning location at the time that "my $y" was processed instead of
|
|
when the variable was introduced, so any embedded statements within
|
|
an anonymous subroutine picked up the wrong "my". The declaration
|
|
is now labelled correctly when the variable is actually introduced.
