57 | "I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope | |
58 | For hope would hope for the wrong thing; wait without love | |
59 | For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith | |
60 | But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting. | |
61 | Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought: | |
62 | So the darkness shall be light, and the stillness the dancing." | |

3237 | Implicit -p print now checks for write errors. | |

5195 | ----------------- | |
5196 | ||
5197 | This patch eliminates almost all possible sources of buffer overflow; | |
5198 | in particular, there are no more sprintf() bugs. (!!) This patch | |
5199 | also has a few other fixes. With these changes in place, I can sleep | |
5200 | at night. (Because I've stopped hacking. :-)) | |

9349 | Version 5.003_20 | |
9350 | ---------------- | |
28757baa | 9351 | |
9352 | The only language change in this release is the recension of support | |
9353 | for named closures: Now, no subroutine declared "sub foo {}" can be | |
9354 | a closure. (This is a return to the behavior of 5.003.) In addition, | |
9355 | there are new warnings triggered by any apparent attempt to use named | |
9356 | functions as closures. | |
9357 | ||
9358 | And, as usual, there are the usual little fixes, documentation | |
9359 | updates, and expanded tests. This is good stuff. "I love you, man!" | |

9520 | Lots of internal cleanup in this patch, especially plugged memory | |
9521 | leaks when embedded Perl interpreters shut down and restart. The | |
9522 | method cache is now invisible to user code. And there is a new test | |
9523 | directory, "t/pragma". | |
9524 | ||
9525 | IMHO, this is Beta quality code. | |

10990 | structure. Also adds new construct "for my", which | |

8903cb82 | 11116 | ---------------- |
11117 | Version 5.003_07 | |
11118 | ---------------- | |
c8bc418f | 11119 | |
11120 | This patch was primarily to fix bugs or include little things I missed | |
11121 | in 5.003_06. 5.003_07 is intended to be stable enough to merit serious | |
11122 | testing with an eye towards eventual release as 5.004. | |
11123 | ||
11124 | If it doesn't work for you, try | |
11125 | ||
11126 | LC_ALL=C; export LC_ALL | |
11127 | ||
11128 | for Bourne shell users, or | |
11129 | ||
11130 | setenv LC_ALL C | |
11131 | ||
11132 | for C-shell users. Some versions of IRIX are reported to have | |
11133 | problems with sort when the locale is other than C. This manifests | |
11134 | as an infinite loop in the ./miniperl configpm step. | |
11135 | ||
11136 | The details are described below. A very brief summary is: | |
11137 | ||
11138 | o Visible Changes to Core Functionality | |
11139 | ||
11140 | -Support for BER compressed integers. See perlfunc.pod for | |
11141 | documentation on the 'w' option. | |
11142 | ||
11143 | -untaint support added to IO extension. | |
11144 | ||
11145 | o Changes in Core Internals | |
11146 | ||
11147 | -Perl's realloc is once again called 'Myremalloc' (with -DHIDEMYMALLOC), | |
11148 | as it was pre-5.003_01. Again, this is for binary compatibility | |
11149 | with 5.003. (5.003_06 erroneously called it Myrealloc.) | |
11150 | ||
11151 | -Getopt::Long updated to version 2.4. | |
11152 | ||
11153 | o Configure and build enhancements | |
11154 | ||
11155 | -improved SCO hints. Actually these are unconfirmed guesses, but | |
11156 | they may be right. | |
11157 | ||
11158 | -OS/2 and Plan9 updates. | |
11159 | ||
11160 | o Bug fixes | |
11161 | ||
11162 | -print sort (4,1,3,2); | |
11163 | ||
11164 | -group numbers are integers again. | |
11165 | ||
11166 | -other things. See the specific changes for details. | |
11167 | ||
11168 | o Specific Changes | |
11169 | ||
11170 | Here are the specific file-by-file changes. | |
11171 | ||
11172 | Index: Changes | |
11173 | ||
11174 | Updated for 5.003_07. | |
11175 | ||
11176 | Fixed a spelling error. | |
11177 | ||
11178 | Index: Configure | |
11179 | ||
11180 | Detect GNU libc (thanks, Skimo!) and avoid nm if we have GNU libc. | |
11181 | Since the GNU libc test requires compiling and linking a test | |
11182 | program, the dependencies have been altered and lots of pieces of | |
11183 | Configure have moved around unchanged. The patch is big but the | |
11184 | effect is little. | |
11185 | ||
11186 | Allow for both <sys/select.h> and <time.h> in fd_set tests. | |
11187 | Systems which don't allow both (e.g. SCO) have to turn off one | |
11188 | or the other in the hints file for now. | |
11189 | ||
11190 | Index: INSTALL | |
11191 | ||
11192 | Warn about re-using config.sh version-specific values. | |

11197 | From: "Randy J. Ray" <rjray@uswest.com> | |
11198 | Subject: PATCH: untaint method for IO::Handle, 5.003_06 version | |
11199 | ||
11200 | This is a re-post of my patch to Graham's IO library to add a method in | |
11201 | IO::Handle called "untaint", that sets the IOf_UNTAINT flag on an object | |
11202 | that is of or inherits from IO::Handle. With this flag set, data read from | |
11203 | said handle is not tainted, whether running under -T, suid or sgid. | |
11204 | ||
11205 | This patch adds the method to IO.xs, adds documentation and warning to the | |
11206 | pod of IO/Handle.pm, creates a new test in t/lib called io_taint.t, and | |
11207 | adds mention of the new file to MANIFEST. | |
11208 | ||
11209 | Add mention of t/lib/io_taint.t | |

11221 | All the executable targets are moved into the same chunk with | |
11222 | shared library target, which is delegated to | |
11223 | $osname/Makefile.SHs if found. | |
11224 | config.h should depend on config_h.SH. | |
11225 | ||
11226 | Remove mkmanifest target, since it will generate incorrectly | |
11227 | sorted MANIFEST file, I would imagine (I haven't checked). | |

11245 | Subject: PATCH: untaint method for IO::Handle, 5.003_06 version | |
11246 | ||
11247 | This is a re-post of my patch to Graham's IO library to add a method in | |
11248 | IO::Handle called "untaint", that sets the IOf_UNTAINT flag on an object | |
11249 | that is of or inherits from IO::Handle. With this flag set, data read from | |
11250 | said handle is not tainted, whether running under -T, suid or sgid. | |
11251 | ||
11252 | This patch adds the method to IO.xs, adds documentation and warning to the | |
11253 | pod of IO/Handle.pm, creates a new test in t/lib called io_taint.t, and | |
11254 | adds mention of the new file to MANIFEST. | |

11588 | This broke between 5.001n and 5.002. There was a long winded thread | |
11589 | about sorting undefs in some order (rather than coredumping) around | |
11590 | the 5.002beta times (search for "bogorefs" in the subject-line on | |
11591 | p5p archive for details). Larry added in some code that presumes that | |
11592 | the private flags are set by the time qsort() is called: | |
11593 | ||
11594 | Unfortunately, sv_2pv() does not set the POKp flag, so the above | |

11668 | Subject: PATCH: untaint method for IO::Handle, 5.003_06 version | |
11669 | ||
11670 | This is a re-post of my patch to Graham's IO library to add a method in | |
11671 | IO::Handle called "untaint", that sets the IOf_UNTAINT flag on an object | |
11672 | that is of or inherits from IO::Handle. With this flag set, data read from | |
11673 | said handle is not tainted, whether running under -T, suid or sgid. | |
11674 | ||
11675 | This patch adds the method to IO.xs, adds documentation and warning to the | |
11676 | pod of IO/Handle.pm, creates a new test in t/lib called io_taint.t, and | |
11677 | adds mention of the new file to MANIFEST. | |
11678 | ||
11679 | Test suite for the untaint method of class IO::Handle. | |

f5cdf9d7 | 11771 | This patch was primarily to fix bugs, improve the documentation, |
11772 | and work towards restoring binary compatibility with 5.003. | |
11773 | The details are described below. A very brief summary is: | |
11774 | ||
11775 | o Visible Changes to Core Functionality | |
11776 | ||
11777 | -Significantly improved support _with documentation_ for | |
11778 | locales, including LC_COLLATE. See the new pod/perli18n.pod. | |
c8bc418f | 11779 | Thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi. |
f5cdf9d7 | 11780 | |
11781 | -new version of Math::Complex, with test suite. Ought to be | |
11782 | backwards compatible, but check it out if you use Math::Complex. | |
11783 | ||
11784 | -Pre-extending hashes now works. keys %hash = 5000 will pre-size | |
11785 | %hash. | |
11786 | ||
11787 | -__DATA__ filehandle is untainted. | |
11788 | ||
11789 | o Changes in Core Internals | |
11790 | ||
11791 | -gv_fullname and gv_efullname have reverted to their pre-5.003_03 | |
11792 | versions for binary compatibility. Actually, they are implemented | |
11793 | as stubs pointing to the new 3-argument forms gv_fullname3 and | |
11794 | gv_efullname3. | |
11795 | ||
11796 | -Perl's malloc is once again called 'Mymalloc' (with -DHIDEMYMALLOC), | |
11797 | as it was pre-5.003_01. Again, this is for binary compatibility | |
11798 | with 5.003. | |
11799 | ||
11800 | o Configure and build enhancements | |
11801 | ||
11802 | -many new tests for the standard library. | |
11803 | ||
11804 | -test suite now locale-friendly. | |
11805 | ||
11806 | -a2p.man and s2p.man now made into pods. | |
11807 | ||
11808 | o Bug fixes | |
11809 | ||
11810 | -whitespace lexer errors fixed. | |
11811 | ||
11812 | -many, many other things. See details below. | |
11813 | ||
11814 | o Specific Changes | |

11841 | This is patch perl5.003_06.pat to perl version 5.003_05. | |
11842 | This takes you from 5.003_05 to 5.003_06. | |
11843 | ||
11844 | To apply this patch, run the above commands, | |
11845 | cd to your perl source directory and then type | |
11846 | ||
11847 | patch -p1 -N < perl5.003_06.pat | |
11848 | ||
11849 | The changes are described after each /^Index:/ line below. This is | |
11850 | designed so you can examine each change with a command such as | |
11851 | ||
11852 | csplit -k perl5.003_06.pat '/^Index:/' '{999}' | |
11853 | ||
11854 | (Of course, since there are more than 100 Index entries, your | |
11855 | csplit may complain, since many csplit's have an arbitrary limit of 100 | |
11856 | files. Still, you can manually split the file or roll your own.) | |

12187 | I found a subtle problem with the lazydelete mechanism (which is used | |

12189 | I was using the HeKLEN slot to hold the hint, but the real HeKLEN is | |
12190 | needed later to call unsharepvn(). This means that only magical | |

12261 | It would IMHO be much better if the AutoLoader exported the AUTOLOAD() | |
12262 | function. With an exported AUTOLOAD() we would not have to inherit | |
12263 | from AutoLoader, and we would avoid these problems. | |
12264 | ||

12432 | The File::Find perl module assumes that the $_ variable remains unchanged | |
12433 | through the user defined function which is callbacked from find. It carries | |
12434 | out a stat operation | |
12435 | ||

f5cdf9d7 | 12811 | Subject: Full LONG_MAX & co. patch over 5.003_05 |
12812 | ||
12813 | This patch contains the changes I've collected for the various _MAX issues | |
12814 | since 5.003_05. No patches issued between 5.003_05 and this one should be | |
12815 | applied, use this one instead. | |
12816 | ||
12817 | The effect is to remove the CHAR_* and I8_* constants (which are | |
12818 | ambiguous) and to explicitly cast all of the constants. | |

12824 | The patch below (which is relative to perl5.001l) implements | |
12825 | "keys %hash = 50_000;" (or other integer-evaluable sizes) for | |
12826 | pre-sizing hashes. I've only moved the patch forward from | |
12827 | when I first did it. I'm sure the code in hv_ksplit could be | |

13277 | Bugs found in pod2man | |
13278 | ||
13279 | The following bugs were noticed, and some fixed: | |
13280 | ||
13281 | 1. Where a L<> link extends over more than one line, pod2man does not | |
13282 | treat it as a link but displays it literally, and so these have been | |
13283 | rearranged to place the link on one line. This is the only bug worked | |
13284 | around. [Fixed; the rearrangements, which were done beforehand, | |
13285 | remain in some cases, but are no longer necessary, and pod paragraphs | |
13286 | can now be safely reformatted to whatever width is desired in the pod, | |
13287 | without breaking links.] | |
13288 | ||
13289 | 2. It seems to swallow spaces after certain links: for example, part | |
13290 | of the "open" entry in the perlfunc manpage comes out as "the | |
13291 | \f(CWbinmode\fR entry elsewhere in this documentfor tips", the source | |
13292 | having been "L</binmode> for tips". [Fixed.] | |
13293 | ||
13294 | 3. 'L</"Pass by Reference">', in perlsub.pod, comes out as '\fI/"Pass | |
13295 | by Reference\fR', that is, with an initial '/"'. | |
13296 | ||
13297 | 4. If a pod line begins with ".", nothing is done to prevent [tng]roff | |
13298 | from treating it as a [tng]roff instruction. | |
13299 | ||
13300 | 5. When the paragraph below =head1 NAME has more than one line, this | |
13301 | confuses pod2man: so in the case of Term::Readline, the manpage begins | |
13302 | with a stray line 'no real package is found, substitutes stubs instead | |
13303 | of basic functions."'. | |
13304 | ||
13305 | Of course, it would be better to fix pod2man; I hope that the new Pod | |
13306 | modules, when ready, will not have these defects. | |

13370 | ||
13371 | The following patch ensures that a glob used as a filehandle that | |
13372 | has had the UNTAINT flag set will not carry that flag over on a | |
13373 | re-open. In a nutshell, a re-open of the DATA filehandle would be | |
13374 | considered untainted, and an object of class IO::Handle (or one of | |
13375 | its sub-classes) that is marked untainted with the untaint method, | |
13376 | then closed and re-opened, retained the untaintedness. | |

13471 | ||
13472 | I found a subtle problem with the lazydelete mechanism (which is used | |

13474 | I was using the HeKLEN slot to hold the hint, but the real HeKLEN is | |

13890 | This patch adds a IOf_UNTAINT flag in sv.h, as one of the possibles | |
13891 | on an xpvio->xio_flags struct member. It is used to mark the given | |
13892 | file handle as a clean source, even when tainting is turned on. | |
13893 | There are also patches to pp_sys.c in pp_sysread to check this flag | |
13894 | before tainting data, and in pp_hot.c in do_readline for the same | |
13895 | reason. Lastly, it patches toke.c to automatically set this flag on | |
13896 | on a __DATA__ filehandle. The creation of the $pack::DATA | |
13897 | pseudo-filehandle is already checked against running under eval, so | |
13898 | this should not introduce any insecurity. | |
13899 | ||
13900 | This patch *does not*: | |
13901 | ||
13902 | * Add the "untaint" keyword. | |

f5cdf9d7 | 13939 | Subject: h2xs bug fix |
13940 | ||
13941 | The h2xs that is in perl5.003_05 has a regexp bug which prevents it from | |
13942 | finding #define statements and filling the constant() function. This patch | |
13943 | fixes that. The h2xs_test program found this--maybe people who are | |
13944 | modifying h2xs should get a copy of the test program. | |
13945 | ||
13946 | This also adds a -d to enable debugging messages (there's just one for now). | |
13947 | I've also placed some of the doc-related things in alphabetical order. | |
13948 | ||
13949 | h2xs_test can be found in my directory on CPAN. Those of you modifying | |
13950 | xsubpp should know there's a test suite for that, too, called XSTEST which | |
13951 | can also be found in my directory on CPAN. | |

8903cb82 | 14016 | ---------------- |
14017 | Version 5.003_05 | |
14018 | ---------------- | |
bde20468 | 14019 | |
14020 | This patch was primarily to fix bugs and to clean up some of | |
14021 | the remaining issues from in 5.003_04. The details are described below. | |
14022 | A very brief summary is: | |
14023 | ||
14024 | o Visible Changes to Core Functionality | |
14025 | ||
14026 | -Add support for a READLINE method to tied filehandles. | |
f5cdf9d7 | 14027 | |
bde20468 | 14028 | -times function now uses CLK_TCK if HZ is not available, rather |
14029 | than just defaulting to 60. times output might change on some | |
14030 | systems, but should be correct now. | |
14031 | ||
14032 | -AnyDBM_File (modifying ISA does not work as expected) | |
14033 | Now behaves as documented: Modifying ISA works to select | |
14034 | order in which *DB* modules are tried. The default is still | |
14035 | the same. | |
14036 | ||
14037 | o Configure and build enhancements | |
14038 | ||
14039 | -Enhance detection of [gs]etpgrp() variants. Some systems have | |
14040 | BSD-style behavior for one and POSIX for the other. Use | |
14041 | [gs]etpgid() instead, whenever possible. | |
f5cdf9d7 | 14042 | |
bde20468 | 14043 | -You can now build a shared libperl.so without running through |
14044 | the LD_RUN_PATH hoops, if your system supports appropriate | |
14045 | ld command-line options. Solaris, NetBSD, and Linux are currently | |
14046 | supported. Others are easy to add. (This makes like a lot easier | |
14047 | for embedders.) | |
14048 | ||
14049 | -VMS updates. | |
f5cdf9d7 | 14050 | |
bde20468 | 14051 | -Fix installperl and installman so that the -n option really only |
14052 | prints commands. (previously, it would still do the mkdirs.) | |
14053 | ||
14054 | o Bug fixes | |
14055 | ||
14056 | -debugger ought to work. | |
14057 | ||
14058 | -A new heredoc tag in Makefile.SH is now quoted. This prevented | |
14059 | 5.003_04 from working most places. | |
14060 | ||
14061 | -numerous smaller ones, detailed below. | |
14062 | ||
14063 | o Specific Changes | |
14064 | ||
14065 | Here are the specific file-by-file changes. | |
14066 | ||
14067 | # This is my patch perl5.003_05.pat to perl5.003_04 | |
14068 | # The full description is below. | |
14069 | # Please execute the following commands before applying this patch. | |
14070 | # (You can feed this patch to 'sh' to do so.) | |
54310121 | 14071 | # -- Andy Dougherty |
bde20468 | 14072 | |
14073 | # We'll create a new test, but patch won't automatically make it | |
14074 | # executable. | |
14075 | touch t/io/read.t | |
14076 | chmod +x t/io/read.t | |
14077 | ||
14078 | exit 0 | |
14079 | ||
14080 | ||
14081 | This is patch perl5.003_05.pat to perl version 5.003_04. | |
14082 | This takes you from 5.003_04 to 5.003_05. | |
14083 | ||
14084 | To apply this patch, run the above commands, | |
14085 | cd to your perl source directory and then type | |
14086 | ||
14087 | patch -p1 -N < perl5.003_05.pat | |
14088 | ||
14089 | The changes are described after each /^Index/ line below. This is | |
14090 | designed so you can examine each change with a command such as | |
14091 | ||
14092 | csplit -k perl5.003_05.pat '/^Index:/' '{99}' | |
14093 | ||
bde20468 | 14094 | Index: Changes |
14095 | ||
14096 | Updated for 5.003_05. | |
14097 | ||
14098 | Index: Configure | |
14099 | ||
14100 | Allow command line or hint-file overrides of $afs. | |
14101 | ||
14102 | Allow trailing spaces in nm output for HPUX10. | |
14103 | ||
14104 | Check for newer BIND 'search' directives in /etc/resolv.conf as well | |
14105 | as older 'domain' directive. | |
14106 | ||
14107 | Enhance detection of [gs]etpgrp() variants. Some systems have | |
14108 | BSD-style behavior for one and POSIX for the other. Use | |
14109 | [gs]etpgid() instead, whenever possible. | |
14110 | ||
14111 | Include -s in the -h summary of available options. | |
14112 | ||
14113 | Allow command-line override of $afs. | |
14114 | ||
14115 | Handle trailing spaces in nm-output on HPUX10. | |
14116 | ||
14117 | Set shrpenv for handling LD_RUN_PATH, if needed. (This used to | |
14118 | be in Makefile.SH. Now it's available for other modules too.) | |
14119 | ||
14120 | When using shared libperl, avoid LD_RUN_PATH if possible by adding | |
14121 | correct ld flags. Currently, Solaris and NetBSD get the correct | |
14122 | -R $archlibexp/CORE, and Linux gets its | |
14123 | -Wl,-rpath,$archlibexp/CORE flag. Other contributions are | |
14124 | welcome. | |

14307 | Now behaves as documented: Modifying ISA works to select | |
14308 | order in which *DB* modules are tried. The default is still | |
14309 | the same. | |
14310 | ||
14311 | ||
14312 | Add helpful "die" message to end of AnyDBM_File. Previously | |
14313 | it would return a 0, and the failure would eventually show up | |
14314 | somewhere else in the script and be hard to track down. It is | |
14315 | a failure if perl can't open AnyDBM_File. The test regression | |
14316 | suite is supposed to indicate this as a failure too. | |

14352 | Subject: Cwd::fastcwd in File::Find | |
14353 | ||
14354 | Is there a good reason why File::Find uses Cwd::fastcwd instead of | |
14355 | Cwd:cwd when fastcwd isn't as portable? | |
14356 | [In particular, fastcwd() doesn't work on AFS.] | |

14359 | ||
14360 | There was a mistake in the sqrt routine in lib/Math/Complex.pm that | |
14361 | gave wrong answers when the magnitude of the imaginary part of the | |
14362 | argument exceeded the magnitude of the real part. Line 69 had too | |
14363 | many sqrt($y)'s. Further, expressions were re-arranged so that | |
14364 | calls to the expensive real sqrt() routine were reduced from 4 to 2 | |
14365 | in this case. | |

395b538b | 14744 | -perl library name is again -lperl, not -lperl5 in some cases. |
14745 | -Several hint files no longer set -g -DDEBUGGING by default. | |
14746 | Instead, they just turn off optimization, since that is | |
14747 | probably what was intended. | |
14748 | -Include OS/2 and Plan9 updates. | |
14749 | ||
14750 | o Bug fixes | |
14751 | ||
14752 | -SEGV with $_[0] and circular references fixed. | |
14753 | -Ilya's debugger patch. | |
14754 | -FAKE typeglobs fixed. | |
14755 | -truncate with file name now works. | |
14756 | -lval substr() no longer coredumps with refs | |
14757 | -lval substr now clears lexicals in re-entered scopes. | |
14758 | -core dump in caller() for signal handler for __DIE__. | |

14898 | ||
14899 | Sorry about adding yet another #ifdef forest, but hopefully this | |
14900 | should resolve the *_MAX issues permanently. It adds to the | |
14901 | previously defined PERL_LONG_MAX, PERL_LONG_MIN, and PERL_ULONG_MAX | |
14902 | symbols the complete set of | |
14903 | /PERL_U?(CHAR|SHORT|INT|LONG)_(MAX|MIN)/, and installs aliases to | |
14904 | those from /(I|U)(8|16|32|V)_(MAX|MIN)/ so that for any standard | |
14905 | Perl typedef, like I32 or UV, you can reference I32_MAX or UV_MIN, | |
14906 | and get appropriate figures. All references to LONG_(MIN|MAX) are | |
14907 | changed appropriately. | |
14908 | ||
14909 | The .c changes have the side effect of making cast_uv properly use quad | |
14910 | limits if quads are in use, but longs aren't 64 bit. Hopefully this all | |
14911 | works, but I don't have any handy Crays to try it out on. | |

14963 | ||
14964 | A patch to perl5.003_02/malloc to give a sensible error abort() message | |

14971 | Subject: FAKE typeglobs seriously busted (with patch) | |
14972 | ||
14973 | Handling of fake typeglobs (scalars that are really globs | |
14974 | in disguise) is seriously busted since 5.002 (it wasn't | |
14975 | so in 5.001n). | |
14976 | The problem is that mg_get() on a glob calls gv_efullname() | |
14977 | which might coerce its first arg to a string. | |
14978 | ||
14979 | Sub-critical patch to conceivably fix some %SIG problems. (Shared hash key | |
14980 | weren't being properly detected by some of the sig magic, but as shared | |
14981 | hash keys wouldn't normally be used in %SIG it's unlikely this is a | |
14982 | significant problem.) | |

15055 | Index: perlio.c | |
15056 | ||
15057 | Removes an incorrect prototype for setlinebuf from | |
15058 | perlio.c because it conflicts with the correct declaration in | |
15059 | MachTen's stdio.h (and possibly other stdio's as well). | |
15060 | ||
15061 | Secondly, the code in perlio.c is not handling the (!PERLIO_IS_STDIO & | |
15062 | HAS_F[GS]ETPOS) case. The patch fixes this omission (in a rather lumpen | |
15063 | manner). I don't think this should affect platforms which try to hack a | |
15064 | different path through the #ifdef forest, but this assertion would benefit | |
15065 | from testing... | |

395b538b | 15160 | Subject: Track SVs for destruction when -DPURIFY |
15161 | ||
15162 | When checking for memory leaks, I compiled Perl with "-DPURIFY". | |
15163 | Although that flag improves the leak checking, it also breaks | |
15164 | destruction of global objects, because SVs aren't kept in captive | |
15165 | arenas any more. | |
15166 | ||
15167 | This patch rectifies the problem by providing an alternative | |
15168 | method for keeping track of SVs when Perl is compiled for Purify. | |
15169 | It has no effect on normal operation. | |

15195 | The problem is that mg_get() on a glob calls gv_efullname() | |
15196 | which might coerce its first arg to a string. | |

15201 | Subject: lval substr() fails to clear lexicals in re-entered scopes (with patch) | |
15202 | ||
15203 | substr() in lvalue context interacts in buggy fashion with SVs that | |
15204 | are !SvOK. This manifests itself with lexicals that have a REFCNT of | |
15205 | 1, since these are merely "cleared in place" by setting SvOK_off. | |

15207 | Subject: lval substr() coredumps with refs (with patch) | |
15208 | ||
15209 | substr() coredumps with a target that is a ref, when it is used in | |
15210 | an lvalue context. | |
15211 | The patch below corrects the problem by stringifying the reference | |
15212 | first (and emitting a warning when appropriate). | |

15217 | ||
15218 | The prototype for truncate was changed so that perl won't die | |
15219 | with C<use strict;> when the first arg is a bareword (filehandle). | |
15220 | I think it was Tom (as in "tchrist") who brought this up. | |
15221 | ||
15222 | Here's a patch that undoes the damage, makes it work with | |
15223 | C<use strict;>, and adds to the testsuite. | |

15253 | Version 5.003_03 | |
15254 | ---------------- | |
e2cc8666 | 15255 | |
15256 | Most of the changes in 5.003_03 are to make the build and installation | |
15257 | process more robust. The details are described below. A very brief | |
15258 | summary is: | |
15259 | ||
15260 | o Visible Changes to Core Functionality | |
15261 | ||
15262 | -Support for tied filehandles. | |
15263 | ||
15264 | o Configure enhancements | |
15265 | ||
15266 | -How to build and install a shared libperl.so is now documented | |
15267 | and supported, though it's not the default for most platforms. | |
15268 | ||
15269 | o Bug fixes | |
15270 | ||
15271 | -Support bit operations on strings longer than 15 bytes. | |
15272 | ||
15273 | -If a regex supplied to split() contains paranthesized subpatterns | |
15274 | that can result in null matches, perl no longer coredumps. | |
15275 | ||
15276 | -Fix problems with each() on tied hashes. | |
15277 | ||
15278 | -Make h2ph architecture-independent by using Config at run-time | |
15279 | rather than extraction time. | |
15280 | ||
15281 | o Specific Changes | |
15282 | ||
15283 | Here are the specific file-by-file changes. | |
15284 | ||
15285 | # This is my patch perl5.003_03.pat to perl5.003_02 | |
15286 | # The full description is below. | |

15315 | This is patch perl5.003_03.pat to perl version 5.003_02. | |
15316 | This takes you from 5.003_02 to 5.003_03. | |
15317 | ||
15318 | To apply this patch, run the above commands, | |
15319 | cd to your perl source directory and then type | |
15320 | ||
15321 | patch -p1 -N < perl5.003_03.pat | |
15322 | ||
15323 | The changes are described after each /^Index/ line below. This is | |
15324 | designed so you can examine each change with a command such as | |
15325 | ||
15326 | csplit -k perl5.003_03.pat '/^Index:/' '{99}' | |
15327 | ||
e2cc8666 | 15328 | Index: Changes |
15329 | ||
15330 | Include 5.003_03 change notes. | |
15331 | ||
15332 | Move older change notes to separate files. | |
15333 | ||
15334 | Index: Changes5.000 | |
15335 | ||

15347 | ||
15348 | New file. Changes from 5.002 to 5.003 | |
15349 | ||
15350 | Index: Configure | |
15351 | ||
15352 | Relaxed warning about ksh on exotic machines. | |
15353 | ||
15354 | Changed usesafe to useopcode. | |
15355 | ||
15356 | Add search for gzip and zip. | |
15357 | ||
15358 | Look more carefully for $sh (the Bourne-ish shell). | |
15359 | Use that info to set $startsh correctly. | |
15360 | ||
15361 | Change prompts for PerlIO interface. See INSTALL | |
15362 | for how this is supposed to work. The default is | |
15363 | still the same as in 5.003_02, namely don't use | |
15364 | any fancy new PerlIO stuff. | |
15365 | ||
15366 | Don't look for sigvec() since we don't actually use it. | |
15367 | (Plus, it used to print an alarming misleading message about | |
15368 | race conditions.) | |
15369 | ||
15370 | Look for stdio's _filbuf under the possible names of | |
15371 | _filbuf, __filbuf, and _fill. | |
15372 | ||
15373 | New $useshrplib variable to control whether we build a shared | |
15374 | libperl.so. The name of the library is in $libperl. | |
15375 | Always install it in $installarchlib/CORE/$libperl. | |
15376 | ||
15377 | Check for <sys/resource.h> and <sys/wait.h> for NetBSD. | |
15378 | ||
15379 | Replace old $altmake stuff with newer autoconf-ish | |
15380 | $make_set_make, which checks if $make sets $(MAKE). Now you | |
15381 | choose an alternate make with sh Configure -Dmake=gmake (or | |
15382 | whatever). | |
15383 | ||
15384 | Remove 'ln' for the list of essential commands. Simulate | |
15385 | it with 'cp' if necessary. | |
15386 | ||
15387 | Change `logname` prompts to handle extra gratuitous spaces in | |
15388 | Ultrix output. | |
15389 | ||
15390 | Autodetect os2. | |
15391 | ||
15392 | Fix silly bug in checking for fully-qualified names in /etc/hosts. | |
15393 | ||
15394 | Generalize Gconvert tests. Give correct and more useful | |
15395 | error messages. | |
15396 | ||
15397 | Use $obj_ext instead of literal '.o' in the dynaloader test. | |
15398 | ||
15399 | Include appropriate header files in bcopy() and memcpy() | |
15400 | tests. Note whether memmove is available. | |
15401 | ||
15402 | Check whether struct sigaction works (needed for Solaris 2.5 | |
15403 | with -Xc). | |
15404 | ||
15405 | Include appropriate header files for randbits test. | |
15406 | ||
15407 | Index: INSTALL | |
15408 | ||
15409 | Add note about space requirements. | |
15410 | ||
15411 | Update to match Configure changes (Opcode vs. Safe, | |
15412 | useperlio, useshrplib, etc.) | |
15413 | ||
15414 | Reorganize the structure of some of the hints. | |
15415 | ||
15416 | Miscellaneous clarifications. | |
15417 | ||
15418 | Index: MANIFEST | |
15419 | ||
15420 | Updated. 5.003_02 introduced some massive patches, mostly | |
15421 | due to spacing changes. I didn't bother to sort them all out; | |
15422 | I just started with 5.003's MANIEFST. | |
15423 | ||
15424 | Index: Makefile.SH | |
15425 | ||
15426 | Support the new simplified shared libperl mechanism. | |
15427 | ||
15428 | Use new $make_set_make directive. | |
15429 | ||
15430 | Remove redundant libperl Make variable. | |
15431 | ||
15432 | Remove unnecessary MAB variable. | |
15433 | ||
15434 | Remove dependency of minitest on lib/Config.pm, since it could | |
15435 | well have been a failure of configpm that inspired testing | |
15436 | miniperl in the first place! | |
15437 | ||
15438 | Index: Porting/Glossary | |
15439 | ||
15440 | New file describing all the config.sh variables. | |
15441 | Eventually, I hope to fill this directory with other useful | |
15442 | stuff. | |
15443 | ||
15444 | Index: README.os2 | |
15445 | ||
15446 | Replace old README.os2 with more up-to-date os2/README. | |
15447 | ||
15448 | Index: config_H | |
15449 | ||
15450 | Updated to match current Configure and config_h.SH. | |

15453 | ||
15454 | Index: config_h.SH | |
15455 | ||
15456 | Updated to match current Configure and config_h.SH. | |
15457 | Some rearrangement of parts has occurred due to new | |

15459 | ||
15460 | Include full descriptions of ARCHLIB, OLDARCHLIB, PRIVLIB, | |
15461 | SITEARCH, and SITELIB. Previous versions just included the | |
15462 | ~-expanded names (with unhelpful descriptions). No functionality | |
15463 | is changed, but maybe it's a little better documented now. | |
15464 | ||
15465 | Index: doio.c | |
15466 | ||
15467 | Possibly Include <signal.h> and <unistd.h> | |

15470 | ||
15471 | No longer prefer bcmp over memcmp when order doesn't matter. | |

15514 | Change safe*alloc functions to have prototypes that | |
15515 | match the system's malloc and free types. That is, use | |
15516 | Malloc_t instead of char *, and Free_t instead of void. | |
15517 | This is necessary so . . . | |
15518 | ||
15519 | Safefree cast matches type of free() whether it's perl's | |

15567 | next_3.sh anyway, so there's been no change in functionality. | |
15568 | ||
15569 | Index: hints/next_4.sh | |
15570 | ||
15571 | Get rid of extraneous isnext_4 variable. Configure and | |
15572 | Makefile.SH will use $osname and $osvers instead. | |
15573 | ||
15574 | Build up $mab dynamically based on available architectures. | |
15575 | ||
15576 | Absorb $mab into ccflags and ccdlflags. I hope that will | |
15577 | cover everything. (Configure should automatically remove | |
15578 | the -arch stuff from cppflags.) | |
15579 | ||
15580 | Configure now knows next4 needs to use a shared libperl.5.so. | |
15581 | ||
15582 | Allow users to use -Dprefix. | |
15583 | ||
15584 | Index: hints/os2.sh | |

15594 | ||
15595 | Index: hints/solaris_2.sh | |
15596 | ||
15597 | Perl.h no longer prefers bcmp, so it's again ok if Configure | |

15679 | Use Safefree() macro instead of safefree() function with | |
15680 | a (possibly) incorrect cast. The whole point of the | |
15681 | Safefree() macro is that it does the correct cast for you. | |

15698 | ||
15699 | Change the function name to Pause() instead of pause() to | |
15700 | avoid potential prototype problems. (This naming convention | |
15701 | is similar to the Fwrite and Fflush macros.) | |

54310121 | 15907 | |
8903cb82 | 15908 | ---------------- |
15909 | Version 5.003_01 | |
15910 | ---------------- | |
e4a57b87 | 15911 | |
15912 | Version 5.003_01 contains bugfixes and additions accumulated since | |
15913 | version 5.002_01, since the patch to version 5.003 was deliberately | |
15914 | kept simple. In addition to numerous small bugfixes in the core, | |
15915 | library files, and documentation, this patch contains several | |
15916 | significant revisions, summarized below: | |
15917 | ||
15918 | o Visible Changes to Core Functionality | |
15919 | ||
15920 | - A port to Plan9 has been started, and changes are integrated into | |
15921 | the standard distribution. As of this release, the Perl core | |
15922 | and several common extensions are working. | |
15923 | ||
15924 | - A set of basic methods in the UNIVERSAL class have been added to | |
15925 | the Perl core. Since UNIVERSAL is an implicit member of every | |
15926 | class's @ISA, the methods can be called via any object. | |
15927 | ||
15928 | - A mandatory warning has been added for 'declarations' of lexical | |
15929 | variables using the "my" operator which mask an existing lexical | |
15930 | variable declared in the same scope, making the previous variable | |
15931 | inaccessible by its name. | |
15932 | ||
15933 | - The "use" and "require" operators have been extended to allow | |
15934 | checking of the required module's version. The "use" operator | |
15935 | can now be used for an immediate version check of Perl itself. | |
15936 | ||
15937 | - A new "strict" pragma, "strict untie", has been added, which | |
15938 | produces an error if a tied value is untied when other references | |
15939 | exist to the internal object implementing the tie. | |
15940 | ||
15941 | - Barewords used as associative array keys (i.e. when specifying | |
15942 | an associative array element like $foo{__BAR} or on the left | |
15943 | side of the => operator) may now begin with an underscore as | |
15944 | well as an alphabetic character. | |
15945 | ||
15946 | - Some of the configuration information previously produced by the | |
15947 | -v switch has been moved to the -V switch, in order to keep -v | |
15948 | output concise. | |
15949 | ||
15950 | o Changes in Core Internals | |
15951 | ||
15952 | - Symbol table and method lookups have been made faster. | |
15953 | ||
15954 | - Perl subroutines which just return a constant value are now | |
15955 | optimized at compile time into inline constants. | |
15956 | ||
15957 | - Management of keys for associative arrays has been improved to | |
15958 | conserve space when the same keys are reused frequently, and | |
15959 | to pass true Perl values to tie functions, instead of stringified | |
15960 | representations. | |
15961 | ||
15962 | - Messages normally output to stderr may be directed to another | |
15963 | stream when Perl is built. This allows some platforms to | |
15964 | present diagnostic output in a separate window from normal | |
15965 | program results. | |
15966 | ||
15967 | - A bug which caused suiperl to fail silently, albeit securely, | |
15968 | in version 5.003 on some systems has been fixed. | |
15969 | ||
15970 | - Management of Unix-style signal handlers via the %SIG associative | |
15971 | array has been made safer. | |
15972 | ||
15973 | - Several global C symbols have been renamed to eliminate collisions | |
15974 | with system C header files or libraries on some platforms. | |
15975 | Unfortunately, this means that dynamic extensions compiled under | |
15976 | previous versions of Perl will need to be rebuilt for Perl | |
15977 | 5.003_01. We're in the process of cleaning up Perl's C | |
15978 | namespace to make it easier to link Perl with other binaries, | |
15979 | so this will probably happen again between now and version 5.004. | |
15980 | After that, we'll do our best to maintain binary compatibility | |
15981 | between versions. | |
15982 | ||
15983 | - An alternate allocation strategy has been added to Perl's | |
15984 | optional private memory management routines. This strategy, | |
15985 | which may be selected when Perl is built, is designed to | |
15986 | conserve memory in programs which allocate many small | |
15987 | chunks of memory with sizes near a power of 2, as is often | |
15988 | the case in Perl programs. | |
15989 | ||
15990 | - Several memory leaks in the creation and destruction of | |
15991 | multiple interpreters have been fixed. | |
15992 | ||
15993 | o Changes in the Standard Library and Utilities | |
15994 | ||
15995 | - The Opcode extension, which allows you to control a program's | |
15996 | access to Perl operations, has been added to the standard | |
15997 | distribution. This extends the work begun in the original | |
15998 | Safe extension, and subsumes it. The Safe interface is still | |
15999 | available. | |
16000 | ||
16001 | - The IO extension, which provides a set of classes for object- | |
16002 | oriented handling of common I/O tasks, has been added to the | |
16003 | standard distribution. The IO classes will form the basis | |
16004 | for future development of Perl's I/O interface, and will | |
16005 | subsume the FileHandle class in the near future. The default | |
16006 | class to which all Perl I/O handles belong is now IO::Handle, | |
16007 | rather than FileHandle. | |
16008 | ||
16009 | - The ExtUtils::Embed library module, which provides a set | |
16010 | of utility function to help in embedding Perl in other | |
16011 | applications, has been added to the standard distribution. | |
16012 | ||
16013 | - The Fatal library module, which provides a simple interface | |
16014 | for creating "do-or-die" equivalents of existing functions, | |
16015 | has been added to the standard distribution. | |
16016 | ||
16017 | - The FindBin library module, which determines the full path | |
16018 | to the currently executing program, has been added to the | |
16019 | standard distribution. | |
16020 | ||
16021 | - The DB_File extension, and the Getopt::Long, Test::Harness, | |
16022 | Text::Tabs, Text::Wrap, Time::Local and sigtrap library modules | |
16023 | have been updated to the authors' latest versions. | |
16024 | ||
16025 | - The Carp library module now considers the @ISA chain when | |
16026 | determining the caller's package for inclusion in error messages. | |
16027 | ||
16028 | - The h2xs, perlbug, and xsubpp utilities have been updated. | |
16029 | ||
16030 | - The standard Perl debugger has been updated, and the information | |
16031 | provided to the debugger when an XSUB is called has been improved, | |
16032 | making it possible for alternate debuggers (such as Devel::DProf) | |
16033 | to do a better job of tracking XSUB calls. | |
16034 | ||
16035 | - The pod documentation formatting tools in the standard distribution | |
16036 | can now handle characters in the input stream whose high bit is set. | |
16037 | ||
16038 | - The cperl-mode EMACS editing mode has been updated. | |
16039 | ||
16040 | o Changes in Documentation | |
16041 | ||
16042 | - Typographic and formatting errors have been corrected in the pod | |
16043 | documentation for the core and standard library files | |
16044 | ||
16045 | - Explanations of several core operators have been improved | |
16046 | ||
16047 | - The perldebug, perlembed, perlipc, perlsec, and perltrap documents | |
16048 | extensively revised. | |
16049 | ||
16050 | o Changes in OS-specific and Build-time Support | |
16051 | ||
16052 | - Support for the NeXT platform has been extended through | |
16053 | NeXTSTEP/OPENSTEP 4.0, and now includes the ability to create MABs. | |
16054 | ||
16055 | - Support for OS/2 has been extended as well, and now includes | |
16056 | options for building a.out binaries. | |
16057 | ||
16058 | - Support for VMS has also been extended, incorporating improved | |
16059 | processing of file specification strings, optional suppression of | |
16060 | carriage control interpretation for record-structured files, | |
16061 | improved support for the -S command line switch, a number of | |
16062 | VMS-specific bugfixes, and significantly improved performance | |
16063 | in line-oriented reading of files. | |
16064 | ||
16065 | - Several hints files have been added or updated: aux.sh (updated), | |
16066 | convexos.sh (updated), irix_4.sh (updated), irix_5.sh (updated), | |
16067 | irix_6_2.sh (updated), next_3.sh (updated), next_3_2.sh (new), | |
16068 | next_3_3.sh (new), next_4.sh (new), os2/sh (updated), | |
16069 | sco.sh (updated), and solaris_2.sh (updated). | |
16070 | ||
16071 | - The test driver for the regression tests now reports when a set | |
16072 | of tests have been skipped (presumable because the operation | |
16073 | they're designed to test isn't supported on the current system). |
