* perldelta galore for ExtUtils::ParseXS changesSteffen Mueller2011-09-121-5/+38
| | | | | This also rephrases the "XSUBs are now static" section since the exact behaviour has changed since 5.15.2.
* Update Devel-PPPort to CPAN version 3.20Chris 'BinGOs' Williams2011-09-111-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [DELTA] 3.20 - 2011-09-10 * fix CPAN #56749: isASCII and isCNTRL macros are buggy (thanks to Karl Williamson for providing a patch and patiently waiting almost two years for me to integrate it) * fix CPAN #70427: RealPPPort.xs:1587: error: lvalue required as unary ‘&’ operand 3.19_03 - 2011-04-13 * keep up with latest core changes 3.19_02 - 2010-03-07 * fix a warning emitted by the test suite with older perls * added support for the following API newSVpvs_share get_cvn_flags get_cvs (thanks to Goro Fuji for providing a patch to implement all of these, fixes CPAN #47174) 3.19_01 - 2010-02-20 * fix CPAN #50763: mistaken use of $[ (thanks to Zefram for spotting this) * remove spurious PUSHMARK from Perl_ppaddr_t (thanks to Gerard Goossen for providing a patch) * improved support for newer compilers in buildperl.pl (thanks to Philippe Bruhat (BooK) for providing a patch) * added support for the following API memEQs memNEs * lots of small toolchain updates
* Eliminate warnings from XSLoader on 5.005 and 5.004.Nicholas Clark2011-09-111-0/+4
| | | | | | Don't pass parameters that old ExtUtil::MakeMaker doesn't understand. Ensure that $DynaLoader::dl_debug exists prior to calling into DynaLoader's XS code.
* Doc patch to perlipcLeon Timmermans2011-09-111-89/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. I've removed some erroneous code regarding signal names (it doesn't handle signal aliases) with a reference to a module that does handle it correctly. 2. Removed the sample on temporary signal ignoring; this is not likely to do what users want it to do. Possibly this should be replaced by a discussion on sigprocmask & friends, but perhaps we can skip in altogether 3. Corrected the discussion on permissions to take the difference between real, effective and saved UIDs into account. 4. Removed all mention of the SysV signaling issue. This was rather relevant when perlipc was written 15 years ago but it isn't anymore nowadays. 5. Removed the suggestion that you can longjmp out of a signal handler (see CERT's SIG32-C).
* Simplify generated XS code by emitting a compatibility version of dVAR.Nicholas Clark2011-09-111-0/+6
| | | | | | If ExtUtils::ParseXS emits conditional C pre-processor code once per XS file to provide a default for dVAR, then it doesn't need to emit 4 lines per function to cater for dVAR not being present.
* Update Archive-Tar to CPAN version 1.78Chris 'BinGOs' Williams2011-09-101-0/+4
| | | | | | | | [DELTA] * important changes in version 1.78 08/09/2011 - patch from Rocky Bernstein to add chown() method [rt#70623] - blead patch from Alexandr Ciornii to resolve [perl#78708]

* [perl #92436] Filter::Simple can’t find end of PODFather Chrysostomos2011-09-091-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | Filter::Simple’s $pod_or_DATA regexp was mistakenly written to look for =end if the pod section began with =begin, and to look for the end of the paragraph if the pod began with =for. Only =cut and EOF can end pod. This patch does not fix Filter::Simple’s naïve way of finding the beginning of pod.
* Fixed repeated wordsWalt Mankowski2011-09-093-3/+3
|
* remove index offsetting ($[)Zefram2011-09-095-50/+27
| | | | | | $[ remains as a variable. It no longer has compile-time magic. At runtime, it always reads as zero, accepts a write of zero, but dies on writing any other value.
* Provide more information in the message for "strxfrm() gets absurd".Nicholas Clark2011-09-091-0/+6
| | | | | Prefix it with "panic", report the two lengths that caused the sanity test failure, and add the message to perldiag.pod.
* Remove a Devel::DProf error from perldiag.podNicholas Clark2011-09-091-7/+0
| | | | | Devel::DProf is no longer in the core distribution, hence the core distribution can no longer generate this particular warning message.

I'd like to include Damian's "when to use OO" list as published in Perl Best Practices (pages 320-321). I don't want to include the entire text verbatim, just the bullet points. I wrote to Damian and he is okay with having this included in the docs, just as an FYI. To do this, I'd need permission to include the text and distribute it under the same license as Perl 5 itself, which is currently version 1 of the Artistic license.

* ch(dir|mod|own) should not ignore get-magic on glob(ref)sFather Chrysostomos2011-09-081-0/+7
| | | | | | | | When the chdir(*handle) feature was added in 5.8.8, the fact that globs and refs could be magical was not taken into account. They can easily be magical if a typeglob or reference is returned from or assigned to a tied variable.
* Call get-magic once for *glob=$tiedFather Chrysostomos2011-09-081-1/+2
| | | | This is a regression in 5.10.0.
* Update perlfaq to CPAN version 5.0150033Chris 'BinGOs' Williams2011-09-081-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | [DELTA] 5.0150033 Tue 30 Aug 2011 21:46:25 +0100 * Perl 6 changes (apeiron) * Replace tabs with spaces (ranguard) * Link to www.cpan.org/ports/ for binary (ranguard) * Switch C<> over to L<> for any module on CPAN (ranguard) * Change brace stype (apeiron) * Extra dzil tests (rafl) * Changes so more semantic, and better rendered HTML (ranguard) * Point to repo for how to update perlfaq (ranguard)
* Update Module-Load-Conditional to CPAN version 0.46Chris 'BinGOs' Williams2011-09-081-0/+4
| | | | | | | | [DELTA] Changes for 0.46 Wed Sep 7 23:57:03 BST 2011 ================================================= * Use || instead of "or" (perl#78708) (chorny)
* Update Module-Metadata to CPAN version 1.000007Chris 'BinGOs' Williams2011-09-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | [DELTA] 1.0.7 2001-09-07 12:00:00 - Apply VMS fixes backported from blead (Craig A. Berry)
* In Dumper.xs, use sv_newmortal() instead of sv_mortalcopy(&PL_sv_undef).Nicholas Clark2011-09-071-0/+6
| | | | | The two produce identical results. The former is terser, and far more efficient.
* ODBM_File can use the same T_PTROBJ typemap as the other ?DBM_File modules.Nicholas Clark2011-09-071-0/+7
| | | | | | | | This simplifies the RETVAL handling in TIEHASH, and makes the code closer to the other 3 ?DBM_File modules. The difference in TIEHASH handling dates back to 5.000, where only ODBM_File needed helper code around the dbm_open() call. The other 3 were able to #define it as dbm_TIEHASH, and hence had no CODE: section when first written.
* Update Module-Metadata to CPAN version 1.000006Chris 'BinGOs' Williams2011-09-071-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [DELTA] 1.0.6 2011-08-29 04:00:00 - Support PACKAGE BLOCK syntax (VPIT) [Additional info] Reapplied the changes made by Craig Berry for VMS in commit 63f27fd71dd22aa00021eb1e4fde4faa55ec9524 Raised [https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=70781] to upstream these changes.
* Remove old odd-numbered releases perldeltasKarl Williamson2011-09-0629-17050/+0
| | | | | | | | The odd-numbered releases are for internal development, and their individual perldeltas are collated togeter for the next even numbered dot 0 release. This means that the individual perldeltas are no longer useful once that dot 0 release is made, and they clutter things up, giving duplicate information.
* Add enable/disable commands for breakpoints in perl -dShlomi Fish2011-09-041-0/+36

* Update CPANPLUS-Dist-Build to CPAN version 0.58Chris 'BinGOs' Williams2011-09-041-0/+4
| | | | | | | [DELTA] 0.58 Sun Sep 4 20:42:48 BST 2011 - Added local::lib type behaviour detection to disable use of 'sudo'
* Call get-magic once for CV-to-GV assignmentFather Chrysostomos2011-09-031-0/+4
| | | | | | | pp_rv2gv has already called get-magic, so pp_sassign should not do it at all. This is a regression from 5.8.8.
* perldelta entry for File:Glob / CVE-2011-2728 fix.Craig A. Berry2011-09-031-0/+15

* Unicode::UCD: Make pod header consistentKarl Williamson2011-09-024-4/+4
| | | | | All the other function headers in this pod look like what this patch makes this one look like. Corresponding links to it are also revised.
* Reinstate the perldelta entry for CPANPLUS.Nicholas Clark2011-09-011-0/+4
| | | | This was accidentally removed by commit 7ac26854bd1fc3c6. Oops.
* Update AnyDBM_File's documentation to avoid use POSIX;Nicholas Clark2011-09-011-0/+6
| | | | | | | use Fcntl; is a much more efficient way to load the two constants needed. Bring the joy of strict (and warnings) to AnyDBM_File, remove commented-out code, and add __END__ to make it clear that there is no more code hiding beyond the pod.
* Note the refactoring of POSIX.pm in perldelta.Nicholas Clark2011-09-011-4/+9

* Update CPANPLUS to CPAN version 0.9110Chris 'BinGOs' Williams2011-09-011-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | [DELTA] Changes for 0.9110 Thu Sep 1 13:43:06 2011 ================================================ * CPANPLUS::Dist::MM now ensures that Makefile.PL is older than any generated Makefile * When resolving dependencies ignore any @INC-hook when finding installed modules * Updated the META.yml in the dist to specify 'dynamic_config' as true.
