The manipulations which correctly propagate to method calls: a) Pruning globs: delete $B::{method} b) Undefing subroutines: undef &B::method; c) Importing: *B::method = \&mymethod; Enjoy, p5p-msgid: <199612230645.BAA08378@monk.mps.ohio-state.edu> Subject: sv_gets patch Date: Sun, 22 Dec 1996 03:24:04 -0500 (EST) From: Ilya Zakharevich <ilya@math.ohio-state.edu> Files: pp_hot.c I sent this patch before as a part of pos $str = $str = /failing/g patch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [editor's note: no patch file was found for this release, so no fine-grained changes] I can't find the password for our ftp server, so I had to drop it into ftp://ftp.sems.com/pub/incoming/perl5.002b3.tar.gz, which is a drop directory you can't ls. The current plan is that Andy is gonna whack on this a little more, and then release a gamma in a few days when he's happy with it. So don't get carried away. This is now *late* beta. In other words, have less than the appropriate amount of fun. :-) Larry

* 5.002 beta 1Larry Wall1995-11-211-16/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If you're adventurous, have a look at ftp://ftp.sems.com/pub/outgoing/perl5.0/perl5.002beta1.tar.gz Many thanks to Andy for doing the integration. Obviously, if you consult the bugs database, you'll note there are still plenty of buglets that need fixing, and several enhancements that I've intended to put in still haven't made it in (Hi, Tim and Ilya). But I think it'll be pretty stable. And you can start to fiddle around with prototypes (which are, of course, still totally undocumented). Packrats, don't worry too much about readvertising this widely. Nowadays we're on a T1 here, so our bandwidth is okay. Have the appropriate amount of jollity. Larry

This is a consolidation patch. It contains many of the most commonly applied or agreed-to patches that have been circulating since patch.1m. It also changes the 'unofficial patchlevel' in perl.c. There are some problems (see items marked with '***'). I will attempt to address those in a patch.1o in a few days. This patch contains the following packages: My Jumbo Configure patch vs. 1m, with subsequent patches 1, 2, and 3. Mainly, this provides easier use of local libraries, documents the installation process in a new INSTALL file, moves important questions towards the beginning, and improves detection of signal names (mostly for Linux). xsubpp-1.922.

A complete description is given below, but here are the basic changes. 1. Linux: more tweaks so dynamic loading works under ELF or (maybe) under dld. There are so many different dld versions and so many different tool sets, it's hard to be more specific. 2. perl -e '$v=1e19+0' no longer dumps core on Intel x86 processors. 3. pod stuff: a. Wrapped pod2* translators in a 'SH' wrapper so that they have the proper path to perl at the top. b. Fixed pod/ Makefile to call the pod2html translator correctly. (Why do pod2man and pod2html work differently?) c. Include latest (Feb 2, 1995) version of pod2html, fresh from ftp.metronet.com. 4. MakeMaker 4.093. 5. GIMME and installperl patches from Tim Bunce. 6. Miscellaneous hint file updates. Configure Allow ' ' to mean 'none' in a few more places. This provides a way for hint files to set something to an empty value and to ensure that the empty value will be maintained when config.sh is reused. Fix silly ld typo that prevented hint file from actually setting $ld. MANIFEST Now has pod/pod2*.SH. Makefile.SH Remove old libperl.a instead of blindly adding to it. Failure to do this causes a problem if you originally used perl's malloc but later changed your mind. The old malloc.o would still be in libperl.a ext/DynaLoader/dl_dlopen.xs Use strerror(errno) instead of dlerror for NetBSD. handy.h Clarify & rework HAS_BOOL comments and code. No functionality is changed, but I hope this is easier to follow. hints/freebsd.sh hints/isc.sh hints/linux.sh hints/netbsd.sh hints/next_3_0.sh hints/next_3_2.sh hints/sco_3.sh Miscellaneous updates. See the individual comments in the patches. installperl Run ranlib on installed .a libraries. unlink() old versions of files before installing new ones, in case the old ones are are write-protected. lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm Updated to 4.092 by Andreas Koenig. This features better selection of shared library versions and shorter command lines for static linking of new extensions. It is also more robust against broken csh on Linux. (There's still a glob in the library selection loop, however.) I further updated it to 4.093 because I didn't like the distclean target :-). It's just a sloppy quick fix, but that's all I have time for now. I've also worked on the library version selection stuff and the $(CC) command stuff a little more. lib/TieHash.pm Overdue removal of ambiguous ${pack} construction. perl.h New U_V macro to cast to the UV type (usually unsigned long). pod/Makefile Updated. pod/pod2html.SH Updated. Converted to 'SH' wrapper so correct #!/path/to/perl gets used. pod/pod2latex.SH pod/pod2man.SH Converted to 'SH' wrapper so correct #!/path/to/perl gets used. pp_hot.c GIMME patch from Tim Bunce. pp_sys.c Allow use of F_FREESP fcntl() directive to truncate files. If HAS_MKDIR is not defined, the stat() call to check the result of the system "mkdir" call was failing because the filename pointer no longer pointed to the right location. sv.c Protect some (UV) casts by the new U_V() macro. util.c New cast_uv() function to support the U_V() macro, if needed. cast_iv() and cast_uv() no longer assume 32-bit longs. The various cast_() functions have also been simplified.
* perl5.000 patch.0g: [various portability fixes, and use latest metaconfig ↵Andy Dougherty1995-01-181-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | for Configure] This patch incorporates various portability fixes and uses the latest metaconfig to generate Configure (and config_h.SH). It would take a long time to summarize all that I've changed. I haven't included many code changes because I'm trying *not* to duplicate bug fixes Larry may already have applied. Here's an older description I prepared that's still mostly accurate: I've also included a few portability fixes in the main source, but these are certainly not a complete set of everything that's been reported. Don't be put off by the size of the patch. Mostly, it's just rearrangement of the parts in Configure and some cosmetic changes. Since gcc often supports long long, I had started to add quad support to Configure. Since SunOS 4.1.3 defines a conflicting "quad" structure, I changed the name from 'quad' to Quad_t, consistent with other Configure "types." I also changed "QUAD" to "HAS_QUAD". However, it turns out it's pretty hard to actually *use* Quad_t. Neither system I have access to can sprintf() a "long long", nor can they carry one around in an IV, unless I make IV "long long", which I didn't want to force generally. Thus I wonder whether any but a precious few could actually use Quad_t, and dropped the tests from Configure. I left in the s/quad/Quad_t/ and s/QUAD/HAS_QUAD/ stuff in case someone else wants to pick it up, and also because I was too lazy to take it back out :-). Some highlights: Configure Several new options. Use Configure -h to learn more. Also, read the directions Configure prints. :-) Spaces now allowed in -D command line options. New -O option that overrides config.sh. You can start interactively and then change that to accepting all the defaults by specifying &-d at any Configure prompt. This is useful if you have to re-run Configure to only change a few settings. Signal type set correctly for the cast{i32,neg} tests. archname detection improved a bit guard against ksh users who have set -u Oldconfig.U cleaned up and regularized a bit more. Guard against hint files using (and over-writing) $tmp. Command line options now are processed after metaconfig INIT lines. Thus things like Configure -Uuseposix should work now. Various miscellaneous clean-ups. better use/detection of tr. i_db.U now checks for hash and prefix type (I think!) I can't test it here. i_?db*.U now all check for an associated function before deciding to include or not the header. MANIFEST MANIFEST.new Sorted & updated. Makefile.SH Some shells/makes bombed out on test -d lib/auto || mkdir lib/auto Use makedir instead. README Some additional notes that people won't read :-). cflags.SH Now calls $startsh. Weird things were happening on Intergraph, and this might be related. config.H Updated. config_h.SH Regenerated. deb.c Varargs dependencies on STANDARD_C replaced by I_STDARG. doop.c quad stuff. ext/DB_File/DB_File.xs Use the new DB_Hash_t and DB_Prefix_t symbols. ext/SDBM_File/sdbm/sdbm.h Fix #defines to be more robust. mg.c Replace VOIDSIG by metaconfig's Signal_t. opcode.h opcode.pl semop only takes 2 arguments, not 3. perl.c Better guard on getenv() prototype. A hint file can use this, if necessary. Me, I think some compilers are just too picky. perl.h The (very) beginnings of some Quad support. See above. Remove the very troublesome sprintf() prototype. Since we don't _use_ the return value anyway (since it's not portable) this should be o.k. The problem was that some systems CAN_PROTOTYPE but include char *sprintf(); in <stdio.h>. That's incompatible with the version we used to have in perl.h. Most people have a prototype for sprintf() in <stdio.h>. Those that don't probably can get by without it anyway. Protect the timesbuf by the specific HAS_TIMES test. Some older gcc-2.something/Solaris 2.something installations apparently don't have times. pp.c More quad stuff. pp_ctl.c s/STANDARD_C/I_STDARG/ for varargs stuff. pp_sys.c use Signal_t. proto.h Update to match new metaconfig names. util.c s/STANDARD_C/I_STDARG/ for varargs stuff. comment out <unistd.h>. A pause prototype was causing problems on some systems. vms/config.vms Changed to use Signal_t.

[editor's note: this commit combines approximate 4 months of furious releases of Andy Dougherty and Larry Wall - see pod/perlhist.pod for details. Andy notes that; Alas neither my "Irwin AccuTrack" nor my DC 600A quarter-inch cartridge backup tapes from that era seem to be readable anymore. I guess 13 years exceeds the shelf life for that backup technology :-(. ]
