Highlights of this patch include: 1. Fixes for $sitelib, $d_stdio_ptr_lval, and $d_stdio_cnt_lval when config.sh is re-used. 2. Move embed.h, keywords.h, and opcode.h dependencies to a special regen_headers target that is ordinarily not used. This is now analogous to the run_byacc target. As a cosmetic side-effect, I transliterated embed_h.sh into embed.pl so that it can run on non-unix systems as well. 3. Tests for gdbm_{sync,exists,setopt} in GDBM_File (needed for Slackware 2.1). For good measure, I've also thrown in the following patches I pulled off the list, mostly unmodified from the originals. 1. Larry's "unofficial official" fix for the subroutine array context problem. 2. Tim's __DATA__ patch. (I kept forgetting about this one.) 3. Malcom's USE_OP_MASK patch to pave the way for his Safe extension. 4. Spider's suggested renaming of regexec to pregexec and regcomp to pregcomp to avoid conflicts with POSIX symbols on Digital Unix. (I only added a brief explanatory comment to the relevant .c files.) 5. Spider's installperl patch to avoid installing *.orig and and the .exists files. (I changed this a little to include patch's ~ suffix, which is used on systems with short file names (in some versions of patch)). 6. Raphael's "safe_unlink" patch to installperl, in case a copy of perl is currently runniung. 7. xsubpp 1.9. 8. Tim's lib.pm module (with patched corrected spelling of 2nd :-). 9. Tim's Exporter module version patches. 10. Tim's MakeMaker patches for make test when LINKTYPE=static. 11. Randal's pod2html patches. 12. Spider's "picky compiler" patches for x2p/util.[ch] 13.

Correctly set ./mips on a MIPS system. Improved (we hope) handling of $archname. MANIFEST MANIFEST.new Made .SH files out of h2xs and makeaperl so that they get the correct path-to-perl at the top. Makefile.SH Propagate $(perllib) to extensions. U/dist3_051.patches Two patches to apply on top of metaconfig PL 51. I've sent them off for inclusion in the next metaconfig update. config_h.SH config.H Regenerated. Only the order of elements has changed. ext/DB_File/Makefile.PL ext/GDBM_File/Makefile.PL ext/NDBM_File/Makefile.PL Add -L/usr/local/lib to LIBS variable. ext/POSIX/POSIX.xs Place #ifdef around FD_CLOEXEC (needed for Apollo). ext/SDBM_File/sdbm/Makefile.PL Simplified, thanks to MakeMaker enhancements. ext/util/make_ext Pass through $(perllib) argument for cflags. h2xs.SH Changed from h2xs to h2xs.SH. Now finds correct path to perl. hints/next_3_2.sh Updated for hppa. hints/solaris_2.sh Remove potentially problematic -lmalloc from $libswanted. hints/unicos.sh Look in /usr/include/rpcsvc for dbm.h. installperl Install h2xs. lib/Cwd.pm Use 'my' variable to avoid clobbering $_. lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm Upgraded from 4.06 to 4.085. Lots of documentation improvements. EXE_FILES to refer to an array of executable files to install. Reduce chatter during build process. Don't count a useful -L/path option as a successful search for a particular library. Cleanup handling of aix external symbols. Create/update perllocal.pod to indicate what we've done. makeaperl.SH Changed from makeaperl to makeaperl.SH. Now finds correct path to perl. x2p/util.c Delete unused setenv() and envix() functions. x2p/util.h Delete unused setenv() and envix() prototypes. vms/config.vms Define I_SYS_STAT and I_SYS_TYPES.

Some minor additional cleanup in x2p/ for even pickier compilers. 5. More hints updates (hpux and next). 6. Include newest dl_hpux.xs. I didn't have time to 1. Fix the overlapping strcpy() in op.c 2. Restore h2xs to Larry's original design to process <>. 3. take out unnecessary "use Config" in installperl. 4. Add in vms patches. I forgot to [If I remembered what i forgot, I wouldn't have forgotten it. :] I deliberately decided *not* to 1. Touch pod/* 2. deal with overloading Specifically, here's what's included: Configure Regenerated to be sure it's up-to-date. Makefile.SH Build extension libraries right into lib/auto/whatever. Don't set CCCDLFLAGS since we don't use it anyway. Take care to avoid modifying lib/Config.pm without reason Visit DynaLoader for `make clean'. (Previously only did so for `make realclean'.) @echo "Note that make realclean does not delete config.sh" Include config.h dependency. U/i_db.U config_h.SH config.H Remove unwanted quotes around db_hashtype and db_prefixtype. configpm Allow specification of alternate name for lib/Config.pm, so the makefile mv-if-diff trick saves needless re-making. ext/DynaLoader/DynaLoader.pm Updated warning messages and comments. ext/DynaLoader/dl_hpux.xs Updated to version 2.1. Now uses bootstrap files. ext/util/make_ext Explicitly use #!/bin/sh to start it up. This is useful for testing make_ext. Improve & simplify Nested::Extension::Processing. More robust handling of `make clean'. hints/hpux_9.sh Support both the bundled and unbundled compilers. hints/next_3_2.sh Back to using -posix rather than POSIX_SOURCE. And that only for ext/POSIX/POSIX.xs. installperl Special ranlib treatment for NeXT, which gets confused about timestamps in libraries, even when you just copy the library. Supply missing '$' in samepath() function. lib/AutoSplit.pm New parameters. lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm Upgraded from 3.8 to 4.01. lib/ExtUtils/xsubpp Documentation changed from man to pod. lib/Getopt/Long.pm Avoid typo warning. Drop unused $optx. lib/Text/Tabs.pm Fix package name. makedepend.SH Explicitly start with $startsh. Catch cpp that prints # <stdin> instead of line numbers. perl.h Fix bonehead mistake that ended up calling my_fmod even if not needed. perl_exp.SH also add symbols from interp.sym proto.h Delete 2 redundant prototypes (newBINOP and newUNOP). util.c Add (char *) casts to unsigned char args to bcmp. x2p/a2p.h Rearrange order of <string?.h> and bcopy & bzero stuff. Change a few function prototypes to void, to reflect actual usage. x2p/a2py.c Change a few function types to void, to reflect actual usage. x2p/handy.h Make *alloc declarations match those in x2p/util.c. x2p/util.c Make *alloc declarations match those in x2p/handy.h. x2p/walk.c Add a (Size_t) cast for comparison of 1 to the result of strlen().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes various non-broken things in the x2p/ directory. Mostly, I've supplied function prototypes to satisfy particularly picky compilers. I've also updated Makefile.SH to know that the byacc-generated a2p.c is now included with the distribution so that we no longer need to go looking for yacc/bison/byacc and deal with various library issues or command line options to support those various compiler compilers. I've included a2p.c generated by byacc-1.9. Larry, feel free to use your own from byacc-1.8 instead.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | A few of the new features: (18 Oct) * Perl can now handle binary data correctly and has functions to pack and unpack binary structures into arrays or lists. You can now do arbitrary ioctl functions. * You can now pass things to subroutines by reference. * Debugger enhancements. * An array or associative array may now appear in a local() list. * Array values may now be interpolated into strings. * Subroutine names are now distinguished by prefixing with &. You can call subroutines without using do, and without passing any argument list at all. * You can use the new -u switch to cause perl to dump core so that you can run undump and produce a binary executable image. Alternately you can use the "dump" operator after initializing any variables and such. * You can now chop lists. * Perl now uses /bin/csh to do filename globbing, if available. This means that filenames with spaces or other strangenesses work right. * New functions: mkdir and rmdir, getppid, getpgrp and setpgrp, getpriority and setpriority, chroot, ioctl and fcntl, flock, readlink, lstat, rindex, pack and unpack, read, warn, dbmopen and dbmclose, dump, reverse, defined, undef.
* perl 2.0 (no announcement message available)perl-2.0Larry Wall1988-06-051-6/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some of the enhancements from Perl1 included: * New regexp routines derived from Henry Spencer's. o Support for /(foo|bar)/. o Support for /(foo)*/ and /(foo)+/. o \s for whitespace, \S for non-, \d for digit, \D nondigit * Local variables in blocks, subroutines and evals. * Recursive subroutine calls are now supported. * Array values may now be interpolated into lists: unlink 'foo', 'bar', @trashcan, 'tmp'; * File globbing. * Use of <> in array contexts returns the whole file or glob list. * New iterator for normal arrays, foreach, that allows both read and write. * Ability to open pipe to a forked off script for secure pipes in setuid scripts. * File inclusion via do 'foo.pl'; * More file tests, including -t to see if, for instance, stdin is a terminal. File tests now behave in a more correct manner. You can do file tests on filehandles as well as filenames. The special filetests -T and -B test a file to see if it's text or binary. * An eof can now be used on each file of the <> input for such purposes as resetting the line numbers or appending to each file of an inplace edit. * Assignments can now function as lvalues, so you can say things like ($HOST = $host) =~ tr/a-z/A-Z/; ($obj = $src) =~ s/\.c$/.o/; * You can now do certain file operations with a variable which holds the name of a filehandle, e.g. open(++$incl,$includefilename); $foo = <$incl>; * Warnings are now available (with -w) on use of uninitialized variables and on identifiers that are mentioned only once, and on reference to various undefined things. * There is now a wait operator. * There is now a sort operator. * The manual is now not lying when it says that perl is generally faster than sed. I hope.
* a "replacement" for awk and sedperl-1.0Larry Wall1987-12-181-0/+275
[ Perl is kind of designed to make awk and sed semi-obsolete. This posting will include the first 10 patches after the main source. The following description is lifted from Larry's manpage. --r$ ] Perl is a interpreted language optimized for scanning arbitrary text files, extracting information from those text files, and printing reports based on that information. It's also a good language for many system management tasks. The language is intended to be practical (easy to use, efficient, complete) rather than beautiful (tiny, elegant, minimal). It combines (in the author's opinion, anyway) some of the best features of C, sed, awk, and sh, so people familiar with those languages should have little difficulty with it. (Language historians will also note some vestiges of csh, Pascal, and even BASIC-PLUS.) Expression syntax corresponds quite closely to C expression syntax. If you have a problem that would ordinarily use sed or awk or sh, but it exceeds their capabilities or must run a little faster, and you don't want to write the silly thing in C, then perl may be for you. There are also translators to turn your sed and awk scripts into perl scripts.
