* [perl #73534] Bigrat segfaults on irrational numbersFather Chrysostomos2010-10-041-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | aka [rt.cpan.org #55767] segfault on sqrt(2) with bigrat The problem seems to be in &Math::BigInt::objectify. It doesn’t try to convert the number object into the right class if $upgrade is defined. The attached patch changes it to make sure it belongs to the calling class or to the $upgrade class. Here is a ‘one’-liner to trigger the same bug without bigrat: perl -Ilib -MMath::BigInt=upgrade,Math::BigFloat \ -MMath::BigFloat=upgrade,Math::BigMouse -le \ '@Math::BigMouse::ISA = Math::BigFloat; print sqrt Math::BigInt->new(2)'

* Further clarification on indirect filehandlesA. Sinan Unur2010-10-041-1/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A recent discussion on Stackoverflow.com indicated to me that there is some potential for confusion in the "Indirect Filehandles" section in perlopentut.pod. See comments to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3661161/writing-a-macro-in-perl/3661239#36612 39 The attached patch is my attempt at clarifying that indirect filehandles are closed when there are no more references to them rather than simply when the end of the current lexical scope is reached. I also added an example of returning such a filehandle from a subroutine. I am not sure if this is the best way to word it, so I would appreciate feedback. The patch is attached. -- Sinan

| | | | | | | | | | | | [DELTA] 0.61 Sat Oct 2 11:41:29 2010 - U::C::Locale newly supports locales: hr, ig, sq. - precomposites of e-dot-below, o-dot-below, o-tilde are tailored as well. (affected locales: et, yo) - Vietnamese (vi): added contractions for non-blocked decompositions * base + dot-below + diacritical such as "a\x{323}\x{306} etc. * base + tone + horn such as "o\x{300}\x{31B}" etc.
* [perl #48332] Debugger corrupts symbol table mungingFather Chrysostomos2010-09-301-0/+5
| | | | | | | | This reverts commit 92adfbd49af0758bcc9a198cf2df2bd78c4176b9, which removed a necessary assignment for the sake of consting. In doing so, it allows subroutine redefinition to work properly again in the debugger.

* perlretut: incorrect output in "Non-capturing groupings"Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason2010-09-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Change the example split output in a "Non-capturing groupings" example from ('12','a','34','b','5') to ('12','a','34','a','5'). This way it'll match the example code that goes along with it: split /(a|b)+/, "12aba34ba5" Reported-by: Antonio Bonifati <antonio.bonifati@gmail.com>

* [perl #71998] overload::Method can die with blessed methodsFather Chrysostomos2010-09-281-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If an overload method is itself blessed into a class that has overloaded operators but does not have fallback enabled, then an error is produced: $ perl5.10.0 use overload '+' => sub{}; bless overload::Method main => '+'; overload::Method main => '+'; ^D Operation "ne": no method found, left argument in overloaded package main, right argument has no overloaded magic at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.0/ overload.pm line 59. The attached patch fixes this.

* Teach Perl about Unicode named character sequencesKarl Williamson2010-09-256-19/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | mktables is changed to process the Unicode named sequence file. charnames.pm is changed to cache the looked-up values in utf8. A new function, string_vianame is created that can handle named sequences, as the interface for vianame cannot. The subroutine lookup_name() is slightly refactored to do almost all of the common work for \N{} and the vianame routines. It now understands named sequences as created my mktables.. tests and documentation are added. In the randomized testing section, half use vianame() and half string_vianame().
* perlrecharclass.pod: Add caveat about multi-char sequencesKarl Williamson2010-09-251-2/+4
| | | | | | | Inside a bracketed character class, any \N{name} which expands to more than one character will have only the first one considered. This doesn't need named character sequences, as user-defined aliases have long been able to be multi-char.
