|
16 |
=begin original |
17 |
|
18 |
This document describes differences between the 5.14.0 release and |
19 |
the 5.16.0 release. |
20 |
|
21 |
=end original |
22 |
|
23 |
この文書は 5.14.0 リリースと 5.16.0 リリースの変更点を記述しています。 |
24 |
|
25 |
=begin original |
26 |
|
27 |
If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.12.0, first read |
28 |
L<perl5140delta>, which describes differences between 5.12.0 and |
29 |
5.14.0. |
30 |
|
31 |
=end original |
32 |
|
33 |
5.12.0 のような以前のリリースから更新する場合は、まず 5.12.0 と |
34 |
5.14.0 の違いについて記述している L<perl5140delta> を読んでください。 |
35 |
|

=head1 Notice |
37 |
|
38 |
=begin original |
39 |
|
40 |
As described in L<perlpolicy>, the release of Perl 5.16.0 marks the |
41 |
official end of support for Perl 5.12. Users of Perl 5.12 or earlier |
42 |
should consider upgrading to a more recent release of Perl. |
43 |
|
44 |
=end original |
45 |
|
46 |
L<perlpolicy> に記述されているように、Perl 5.16.0 によって Perl 5.12 の |
47 |
サポートが公式に終了します。 |
48 |
Perl 5.12 以前のユーザーはより新しい Perl にアップグレードすることを |
49 |
検討するべきです。 |

|
51 |
=head1 Core Enhancements |
52 |
|
53 |
(コアの拡張) |
54 |
|
55 |
=head2 C<use I<VERSION>> |
56 |
|
57 |
=begin original |
58 |
|
59 |
As of this release, version declarations like C<use v5.16> now disable |
60 |
all features before enabling the new feature bundle. This means that |
61 |
the following holds true: |
62 |
|
63 |
=end original |
64 |
|
65 |
このリリース以降、C<use v5.16> のようなバージョン宣言は、新しい機能が |
66 |
有効になる前の全ての機能が無効になるようになりました。 |
67 |
これは、以下のようなものが真であることを意味します: |
68 |
|
69 |
use 5.016; |
70 |
# only 5.16 features enabled here |
71 |
use 5.014; |
72 |
# only 5.14 features enabled here (not 5.16) |
73 |
|
74 |
=begin original |
75 |
|
76 |
C<use v5.12> and higher continue to enable strict, but explicit C<use |
77 |
strict> and C<no strict> now override the version declaration, even |
78 |
when they come first: |
79 |
|
80 |
=end original |
81 |
|
82 |
C<use v5.12> 以上は strict を有効にするという機能ははそのままですが、 |
83 |
明示的な C<use strict> と C<no strict> は (先に現れても) バージョン定義を |
84 |
上書きするようになりました: |
85 |
|
86 |
no strict; |
87 |
use 5.012; |
88 |
# no strict here |
89 |
|
90 |
=begin original |
91 |
|
92 |
There is a new ":default" feature bundle that represents the set of |
93 |
features enabled before any version declaration or C<use feature> has |
94 |
been seen. Version declarations below 5.10 now enable the ":default" |
95 |
feature set. This does not actually change the behaviour of C<use |
96 |
v5.8>, because features added to the ":default" set are those that were |
97 |
traditionally enabled by default, before they could be turned off. |
98 |
|
99 |
=end original |
100 |
|
101 |
新しい ":default" 機能は、任意のバージョン定義や C<use feature> が |
102 |
現れる前に有効な機能の集合を表現します。 |
103 |
5.10 以前のバージョン宣言は ":default" 機能集合を有効にするように |
104 |
なりました。 |
105 |
これは実際には C<use v5.8> の振る舞いを変更しません; なぜなら |
106 |
":default" 集合は、機能を無効に出来るようになる前に伝統的にデフォルトで |
107 |
有効になっていたものだからです。 |
108 |
|
109 |
=begin original |
110 |
|
111 |
C<< no feature >> now resets to the default feature set. To disable all |
112 |
features (which is likely to be a pretty special-purpose request, since |
113 |
it presumably won't match any named set of semantics) you can now |
114 |
write C<< no feature ':all' >>. |
115 |
|
116 |
=end original |
117 |
|
118 |
C<< no feature >> はデフォルト機能集合をリセットするようになりました。 |
119 |
全ての機能を無効にする (これはかなり特殊な用途の要求です; なぜなら |
120 |
おそらく動作の全ての名前付き集合にマッチングしないからです) には、 |
121 |
C<< no feature ':all' >> と書けるようになります。 |
122 |
|
123 |
=begin original |
124 |
|
125 |
C<$[> is now disabled under C<use v5.16>. It is part of the default |
126 |
feature set and can be turned on or off explicitly with C<use feature |
127 |
'array_base'>. |
128 |
|
129 |
=end original |
130 |
|
131 |
C<$[> は C<use v5.16> の元では無効になるようになりました。 |
132 |
これはデフォルト機能集合の一部で、 C<use feature 'array_base'> によって |
133 |
明示的に有効無効を切り替えられます。 |
134 |
|
135 |
=head2 C<__SUB__> |
136 |
|
137 |
=begin original |
138 |
|
139 |
The new C<__SUB__> token, available under the C<current_sub> feature |
140 |
(see L<feature>) or C<use v5.16>, returns a reference to the current |
141 |
subroutine, making it easier to write recursive closures. |
142 |
|
143 |
=end original |
144 |
|
145 |
C<current_sub> 機能 (L<feature> 参照) または C<use v5.16> で利用可能な |
146 |
C<__SUB__> トークンは現在のサブルーチンへのリファレンスを返すことで、 |
147 |
再帰クロージャを書くのを容易にします。 |

=head2 New and Improved Built-ins |
150 |
|
151 |

152 |
|
153 |
=head3 More consistent C<eval> |
154 |
|
155 |
(より一貫性のある C<eval>) |
156 |
|
157 |
=begin original |
158 |
|
159 |
The C<eval> operator sometimes treats a string argument as a sequence of |
160 |
characters and sometimes as a sequence of bytes, depending on the |
161 |
internal encoding. The internal encoding is not supposed to make any |
162 |
difference, but there is code that relies on this inconsistency. |
163 |
|
164 |
=end original |
165 |
|
166 |
C<eval> 演算子は内部エンコーディングに依存して、時には文字列引数を |
167 |
文字の並びとして、時にはバイトの並びとして扱います。 |
168 |
内部エンコーディングは何の違いもないはずですが、この非一貫性に依存した |
169 |
コードがあります。 |
170 |
|
171 |
=begin original |
172 |
|
173 |
The new C<unicode_eval> and C<evalbytes> features (enabled under C<use |
174 |
5.16.0>) resolve this. The C<unicode_eval> feature causes C<eval |
175 |
$string> to treat the string always as Unicode. The C<evalbytes> |
176 |
features provides a function, itself called C<evalbytes>, which |
177 |
evaluates its argument always as a string of bytes. |
178 |
|
179 |
=end original |
180 |
|
181 |
(C<use 5.16.0> で有効になる)新しい C<unicode_eval> 機能と |
182 |
C<evalbytes> 機能はこれを解決します。 |
183 |
C<unicode_eval> 機能は、C<eval $string> での文字列を常に Unicode として |
184 |
扱います。 |
185 |
C<evalbytes> 機能は、引数を常にバイト列として扱う C<evalbytes> 関数を |
186 |
提供します。 |
187 |
|
188 |
=begin original |
189 |
|
190 |
These features also fix oddities with source filters leaking to outer |
191 |
dynamic scopes. |
192 |
|
193 |
=end original |
194 |
|
195 |
これらの機能は、ソースフィルタが外側の動的スコープにリークする問題も |
196 |
修正します。 |
197 |
|
198 |

=head3 C<substr> lvalue revamp |
207 |
|
208 |
(C<substr> 左辺値の刷新) |
209 |
|
210 |
=for comment Does this belong here, or under Incomptable Changes? |
211 |
|
212 |
=begin original |
213 |
|
214 |
When C<substr> is called in lvalue or potential lvalue context with two |
215 |
or three arguments, a special lvalue scalar is returned that modifies |
216 |
the original string (the first argument) when assigned to. |
217 |
|
218 |
=end original |
219 |
|
220 |
左辺値や潜在的な左辺値コンテキストで 2 引数または 3 引数の C<substr> が |
221 |
呼び出されると、代入するときに元の文字列(1 番目の引数)を修正する |
222 |
特殊な左辺値スカラを返します。 |
223 |
|
224 |
=begin original |
225 |
|
226 |
Previously, the offsets (the second and third arguments) passed to |
227 |
C<substr> would be converted immediately to match the string, negative |
228 |
offsets being translated to positive and offsets beyond the end of the |
229 |
string being truncated. |
230 |
|
231 |
=end original |
232 |
|
233 |
以前は、C<substr> に渡されたオフセット(2 番目と 3 番目の引数) は直ちに |
234 |
文字列にマッチするように変換され、負のオフセットは正に変換され、 |
235 |
文字列の末尾を越えるオフセットは切り詰められました。 |
236 |
|
237 |
=begin original |
238 |
|
239 |
Now, the offsets are recorded without modification in the special |
240 |
lvalue scalar that is returned, and the original string is not even |
241 |
looked at by C<substr> itself, but only when the returned lvalue is |
242 |
read or modified. |
243 |
|
244 |
=end original |
245 |
|
246 |
今では、オフセットは返される特殊左辺値スカラに修正なしに記録され、 |
247 |
元の文字列は C<substr> 自身によっても見ませんが、返された左辺値は |
248 |
読んだり修正したりしたときだけです。 |
249 |
|
250 |
=begin original |
251 |
|
252 |
These changes result in an incompatible change: |
253 |
|
254 |
=end original |
255 |
|
256 |
これらの変更はいくつかの互換性のない変更を引き起こします: |
257 |
|
258 |
=begin original |
259 |
|
260 |
If the original string changes length after the call to C<substr> but |
261 |
before assignment to its return value, negative offsets will remember |
262 |
their position from the end of the string, affecting code like this: |
263 |
|
264 |
=end original |
265 |
|
266 |
C<substr> を呼び出した後、返り値が代入される前に、元の文字列の長さが |
267 |
変更されると、負のオフセットは文字列の末尾からの位置を覚えているので、 |
268 |
以下のようなコードに影響を与えます: |
269 |
|
270 |
my $string = "string"; |
271 |
my $lvalue = \substr $string, -4, 2; |
272 |
print $lvalue, "\n"; # prints "ri" |
273 |
$string = "bailing twine"; |
274 |
print $lvalue, "\n"; # prints "wi"; used to print "il" |
275 |
|
276 |
=begin original |
277 |
|
278 |
The same thing happens with an omitted third argument. The returned |
279 |
lvalue will always extend to the end of the string, even if the string |
280 |
becomes longer. |
281 |
|
282 |
=end original |
283 |
|
284 |
同じことは省略された 3 番目の引数でも起こります。 |
285 |
返された左辺値は、たとえ文字列が長くなっても、常に文字列の末尾に |
286 |
拡張されます。 |
287 |
|
288 |
=begin original |
289 |
|
290 |
Since this change also allowed many bugs to be fixed (see |
291 |
L</The C<substr> operator>), and since the behaviour |
292 |
of negative offsets has never been specified, so the |
293 |
change was deemed acceptable. |
294 |
|
295 |
=end original |
296 |
|
297 |
この変更により多くのバグを修正できるようになり、 |
298 |
L</Fixes to the C<substr> operator> を参照してください)、 |
299 |
負数のオフセットの振る舞いは仕様になったことはないので、この変更は |
300 |
受け入れられる取引でした。 |
301 |
|
302 |
=head3 Return value of C<tied> |
303 |
|
304 |
(C<tied> の返り値) |
305 |
|
306 |
=begin original |
307 |
|
308 |
The value returned by C<tied> on a tied variable is now the actual |
309 |
scalar that holds the object to which the variable is tied. This |
310 |
allows ties to be weakened with C<Scalar::Util::weaken(tied |
311 |
$tied_variable)>. |
312 |
|
313 |
=end original |
314 |
|
315 |
tie された変数に対する C<tied> によって返される値は、変数が tie された |
316 |
オブジェクトを保持する実際のスカラになりました。 |
317 |
これにより C<Scalar::Util::weaken(tied $tied_variable)> で tie を |
318 |
弱めることが出来るようになります。 |
319 |
|

328 |
=begin original |
329 |
|
330 |
Besides the addition of whole new scripts, and new characters in |
331 |
existing scripts, this new version of Unicode, as always, makes some |
332 |
changes to existing characters. One change that may trip up some |
333 |
applications is that the General Category of two characters in the |
334 |
Latin-1 range, PILCROW SIGN and SECTION SIGN, has been changed from |
335 |
Other_Symbol to Other_Punctuation. The same change has been made for |
336 |
a character in each of Tibetan, Ethiopic, and Aegean. |
337 |
The code points U+3248..U+324F (CIRCLED NUMBER TEN ON BLACK SQUARE |
338 |
through CIRCLED NUMBER EIGHTY ON BLACK SQUARE) have had their General |
339 |
Category changed from Other_Symbol to Other_Numeric. The Line Break |
340 |
property has changes for Hebrew and Japanese; and as a consequence of |
341 |
other changes in 6.1, the Perl regular expression construct C<\X> now |
342 |
works differently for some characters in Thai and Lao. |
343 |

391 |
|
392 |
Perl will accept any of these names as input, but |
393 |
C<charnames::viacode()> now returns the new name of each pair. The |
394 |
change for U+2118 is considered by Unicode to be a correction, that is |
395 |
the original name was a mistake (but again, it will remain forever valid |
396 |
to use it to refer to U+2118). But most of these changes are the |
397 |
fallout of the mistake Unicode 6.0 made in naming a character used in |
398 |
Japanese cell phones to be "BELL", which conflicts with the longstanding |
399 |
industry use of (and Unicode's recommendation to use) that name |
400 |
to mean the ASCII control character at U+0007. As a result, that name |
401 |
has been deprecated in Perl since v5.14; and any use of it will raise a |
402 |
warning message (unless turned off). The name "ALERT" is now the |
403 |
preferred name for this code point, with "BEL" being an acceptable short |
404 |
form. The name for the new cell phone character, at code point U+1F514, |
405 |
remains undefined in this version of Perl (hence we don't quite |
406 |
implement all of Unicode 6.1), but starting in v5.18, BELL will mean |
407 |
this character, and not U+0007. |
408 |
|
409 |
=end original |
410 |
|
411 |
Perl は任意の名前を入力として受け付けますが、C<charnames::viacode()> は |
412 |
それぞれのペアの新しい名前を返すようになりました。 |
413 |
U+2118 の変更は、元の名前が間違っていたための Unicode による訂正と |
414 |
考えられます(しかし再び、これは U+2118 を参照するために永遠に有効の |
415 |
ままです)。 |
416 |
しかしこれらの変更の中で最大のものは、日本の携帯電話で使われている |
417 |
文字の名前に、長い間実用されている (そして Unicode も使用を推奨している |
418 |
ASCII 制御文字 U+0007 と衝突している "BELL" という名前を付けたことによる |
419 |
副産物です。 |
420 |
結果として、この名前は v5.14 以降 Perl では非推奨となっています; |
421 |
そしてこれを使うと(オフにしていなければ)警告メッセージが発生します。 |
422 |
この符号位置に対する適切な名前は "ALERT" になり、短い形式として |
423 |
"BEL" が受け入れられるようになります。 |
424 |
このバージョンの Perl では、符号位置 U+1F514 の新しい携帯電話の文字の |
425 |
名前は未定義のままです(従って私たちは Unicode 6.1 の完全に全てを |
426 |
実装しているわけではありません)が、v5.18 から BELL は U+0007 ではなく |
427 |
この文字を意味するようになります。 |
428 |
|
429 |
=begin original |
430 |
|
431 |
Unicode has taken steps to make sure that this sort of mistake does not |
432 |
happen again. The Standard now includes all the generally accepted |
433 |
names and abbreviations for control characters, whereas previously it |
434 |
didn't (though there were recommended names for most of them, which Perl |
435 |
used). This means that most of those recommended names are now |
436 |
officially in the Standard. Unicode did not recommend names for the |
437 |
four code points listed above between U+008E and U+008F, and in |
438 |
standardizing them Unicode subtly changed the names that Perl had |
439 |
previously given them, by replacing the final blank in each name by a |
440 |
hyphen. Unicode also officially accepts names that Perl had deprecated, |
441 |
such as FILE SEPARATOR. Now the only deprecated name is BELL. |
442 |
Finally, Perl now uses the new official names instead of the old |
443 |
(now considered obsolete) names for the first four code points in the |
444 |
list above (the ones which have the parentheses in them). |

Unicode はこのような過ちが再び起きないようにするための対策を取りました。 |
449 |
今では標準には制御文字に対して、全ての一般的に受け入れられている名前を |
450 |
含むようになりました(以前は含んでいませんでしたが、そのほとんどは |
451 |
Perl が使っていた推奨される名前でした)。 |
452 |
Unicode は U+008E から U+008F の間の上述の四つの符号位置に対する |
453 |
名前を推奨しておらず、and in |
454 |
standardizing them Unicode subtly changed the names that Perl had |
455 |
previously given them, by replacing the final blank in each name by a |
456 |
hyphen. |
457 |
Unicode はまた、FILE SEPARATOR のように Perl では非推奨とした名前を |
458 |
公式に受け入れました。 |
459 |
今では唯一の非推奨の名前は BELL です。 |
460 |
最終的に、上述の四つの符号位置の名前として古い(今では古いものとなったと |
461 |
考えられる)名前ではなく、新しい公式の名前(かっこで囲まれたもの)を使います。 |
462 |
(TBT) |
463 |
|
464 |
=begin original |
465 |
|
466 |
Now that the names have been placed in the Unicode standard, these kinds |
467 |
of changes should not happen again, though corrections, such as to |
468 |
U+2118, are still possible. |
469 |
|
470 |
=end original |
471 |
|
472 |
名前が Unicode 標準に入ったことにより、この種の変更は再び発生することは |
473 |
ありませんが、U+2118 に対するような修正は引き続き起こりえます。 |
474 |
|
475 |
=begin original |
476 |
|
477 |
Unicode also added some name abbreviations, which Perl now accepts: |
478 |
SP for SPACE; |
479 |
TAB for CHARACTER TABULATION; |
480 |
NEW LINE, END OF LINE, NL, and EOL for LINE FEED; |
481 |
LOCKING-SHIFT ONE for SHIFT OUT; |
482 |
LOCKING-SHIFT ZERO for SHIFT IN; |
483 |
and ZWNBSP for ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE. |
484 |
|
485 |
=end original |
486 |
|
487 |
Unicode はまたいくつかの名前の略称を追加し、Perl でも使えるようになりました: |
488 |
SPACE 用に SP; |
489 |
CHARACTER TABULATION 用に TAB; |
490 |
LINE FEED 用に NEW LINE, END OF LINE, NL, EOL; |
491 |
SHIFT OUT 用に LOCKING-SHIFT ONE; |
492 |
SHIFT IN 用に LOCKING-SHIFT ZERO; |
493 |
ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE 用に ZWNBSP。 |

|
540 |
=begin original |
541 |
|
542 |
Perl now has proper support for Unicode in symbol names. It used to be |
543 |
that C<*{$foo}> would ignore the internal UTF8 flag and use the bytes of |
544 |
the underlying representation to look up the symbol. That meant that |
545 |
C<*{"\x{100}"}> and C<*{"\xc4\x80"}> would return the same thing. All |
546 |
these parts of Perl have been fixed to account for Unicode: |
547 |
|
548 |
=end original |
549 |
|
550 |
Perl はシンボル名に対する Unicode 対応を適切に行うようになりました。 |
551 |
今までは C<*{$foo}> は内部 UTF8フラグを無視して、基となっているバイト列を |
552 |
使います。 |

In addition, a parsing bug has been fixed that prevented C<*{é}> from |

would cause a strict violation. |
658 |

=begin original |
712 |

713 |
which tells Perl to use all but the C<LC_CTYPE> and C<LC_COLLATE> |
714 |
portions of the current locale. Instead, the character set is assumed |
715 |
to be Unicode. This allows locales and Unicode to be seamlessly mixed, |
716 |
including the increasingly frequent UTF-8 locales. When using this |
717 |
hybrid form of locales, the C<:locale> layer to the L<open> pragma can |
718 |
be used to interface with the file system, and there are CPAN modules |
719 |
available for ARGV and environment variable conversions. |

745 |
=begin original |
746 |

747 |
Unicode foldcase is an extension to lowercase that gives better results |
748 |
when comparing two strings case-insensitively. It has long been used |
749 |
internally in regular expression C</i> matching. Now it is available |
750 |
explicitly through the new C<fc> function call (enabled by |
751 |
S<C<"use feature 'fc'">>, or C<use v5.16>, or explicitly callable via |
752 |

791 |
(いくつかの組み込み型の typemap の改善) |
792 |
|
793 |
=begin original |
794 |
|
795 |
Most XS authors will be aware that there is a longstanding bug in the |
796 |
OUTPUT typemap for T_AVREF (C<AV*>), T_HVREF (C<HV*>), T_CVREF (C<CV*>), |
797 |
and T_SVREF (C<SVREF> or C<\$foo>) that requires manually decrementing |
798 |
the reference count of the return value instead of the typemap taking |
799 |
care of this. For backwards-compatibility, this cannot be changed in the |
800 |
default typemaps. But we now provide additional typemaps |
801 |
C<T_AVREF_REFCOUNT_FIXED>, etc. that do not exhibit this bug. Using |
802 |
them in your extension is as simple as having one line in your |
803 |
C<TYPEMAP> section: |
804 |
|
805 |
=end original |
806 |
|
807 |
ほとんどの XS 作者は、T_AVREF (C<AV*>), T_HVREF (C<HV*>), T_CVREF (C<CV*>), |
808 |
T_SVREF (C<SVREF> または C<\$foo>) の OUTPUT typemap は参照カウントを |
809 |
typemap が面倒を見てくれず、手動で減らす必要があるという長い間ある |
810 |
バグに気付いていました。 |
811 |
後方互換性のために、これはデフォルトの typemap では変更できません。 |
812 |
しかし、この問題が含まれない |
813 |
C<T_AVREF_REFCOUNT_FIXED> などの追加の typemap を提供することになりました。 |
814 |
エクステンションでこれらを使うことで、 |
815 |

=head3 C<is_utf8_char()> |
820 |
|
821 |
=begin original |
822 |
|
823 |
The XS-callable function C<is_utf8_char()>, when presented with |
824 |
malformed UTF-8 input, can read up to 12 bytes beyond the end of the |
825 |
string. This cannot be fixed without changing its API. It is not |
826 |
called from CPAN. The documentation now describes how to use it |
827 |
safely. |
828 |
|
829 |
=end original |
830 |
|
831 |
XS 呼び出し可能な関数 C<is_utf8_char()> は、不正な UTF-8 入力があると、 |
832 |
文字列の終わりを越えて最大 12 バイト読む可能性があります。 |
833 |
これは API を変更せずに修正することはできません。 |
834 |
これは CPAN からは呼び出されません。 |

(C<is_utf8_char_buf()> の追加) |

=begin original |

843 |
This function is designed to replace the deprecated L</is_utf8_char()> |
844 |
function. It includes an extra parameter to make sure it doesn't read |
845 |
past the end of the input buffer. |
846 |
|
847 |
=end original |
848 |
|
849 |
この関数は非推奨の L</is_utf8_char()> 関数を置き換えるために |
850 |

これには入力バッファの末尾を越えて読み込まないようにするための追加の引数が |
852 |
あります。 |

857 |
|
858 |
=begin original |
859 |
|
860 |
Most of the other XS-callable functions that take UTF-8 encoded input |
861 |
implicitly assume that the UTF-8 is valid (not malformed) in regards to |
862 |
buffer length. Do not do things such as change a character's case or |
863 |
see if it is alphanumeric without first being sure that it is valid |
864 |
UTF-8. This can be safely done for a whole string by using one of the |
865 |
functions C<is_utf8_string()>, C<is_utf8_string_loc()>, and |
866 |
C<is_utf8_string_loclen()>. |
867 |
|
868 |
=end original |
869 |
|
870 |
UTF-8 エンコードされた入力を取るその他の XS 呼び出し可能な関数のほとんどは |
871 |
バッファ長に関して UTF-8 が有効である(不正でない)ことを暗黙に |
872 |
仮定しています。 |
873 |
まず文字列が有効な UTF-8 であることを確認せずに、文字の大文字小文字を |
874 |
変更したり、英数字かどうかを確認したりしてはいけません。 |
875 |
このようなことは、文字列全体に対して C<is_utf8_string()>, |
876 |
C<is_utf8_string_loc()>, C<is_utf8_string_loclen()> のいずれかを使うことで |
877 |
安全に行えます。 |

902 |
|
903 |
C<$$> was made read-only in Perl 5.8.0. But only sometimes: C<local $$> |
904 |
would make it writable again. Some CPAN modules were using C<local $$> or |
905 |
XS code to bypass the read-only check, so there is no reason to keep C<$$> |
906 |
read-only. (This change also allowed a bug to be fixed while maintaining |
907 |
backward compatibility.) |
908 |
|
909 |
=end original |
910 |
|
911 |
C<$$> は Perl 5.8.0 で読み込みせんようになりました。 |
912 |
しかしときどき: C<local $$> で再び書き込み可能になることがあります。 |
913 |
CPAN モジュールによっては読み込み専用のチェックを回避するために |
914 |
C<local $$> や XS コードを使っているものもあるので、C<$$> よ読み込み専用に |
915 |
保っておく理由がありません。 |
916 |
(この変更はまた、過去互換性を維持する間に修正するべきバグを許します。) |

923 |
|
924 |
C<$^X> is now converted to an absolute path on OS X, FreeBSD (without |
925 |
needing F</proc> mounted) and Solaris 10 and 11. This augments the |

957 |
The current Perl's L<feature> bundle is now enabled for commands entered |
958 |
in the interactive debugger. |
959 |
|
960 |
=end original |
961 |
|
962 |
現在の Perl の L<feature> バンドルは、対話的デバッガで入力されたコマンドで |
963 |
有効になるようになりました。 |
964 |
|
965 |
=head3 New option for the debugger's B<t> command |
966 |
|
967 |
(デバッガの B<t> コマンドの新しいオプション) |
968 |
|
969 |
=begin original |
970 |
|
971 |
The B<t> command in the debugger, which toggles tracing mode, now |
972 |
accepts a numeric argument that determines how many levels of subroutine |
973 |
calls to trace. |
974 |
|
975 |
=end original |
976 |
|
977 |
トレースモードをトグルするデバッガの B<t> コマンドは、サブルーチン |
978 |
呼び出しを何レベルまでトレースするかを決定する数値引数を |
979 |
受け付けるようになりました。 |
980 |

981 |
=head3 C<enable> and C<disable> |
982 |
|
983 |
(C<enable> と C<disable>) |
984 |
|
985 |
=begin original |
986 |
|
987 |
The debugger now has C<disable> and C<enable> commands for disabling |
988 |
existing breakpoints and re-enabling them. See L<perldebug>. |
989 |
|
990 |
=end original |
991 |
|
992 |
デバッガに、すでに有るブレークポイントを無効にしたり、再び有効に |
993 |
したりするためのC<disable> コマンドと C<enable> コマンドが追加されました。 |
994 |
L<perldebug> を参照してください。 |
995 |
|
996 |
=head3 Breakpoints with file names |
997 |
|
998 |
(ファイル名付きのブレークポイント) |
999 |
|
1000 |
=begin original |
1001 |
|
1002 |
The debugger's "b" command for setting breakpoints now allows a line |
1003 |
number to be prefixed with a file name. See |
1004 |
L<perldebug/"b [file]:[line] [condition]">. |
1005 |
|
1006 |
=end original |
1007 |
|
1008 |
ブレークポイントを設定するためのデバッガの "b" コマンドは、ファイル名の |
1009 |
後ろに付ける行番号を受け付けるようになりました。 |
1010 |
L<perldebug/"b [file]:[line] [condition]"> を参照してください。 |

=head2 The C<CORE> Namespace |
1013 |

(C<CORE> 名前空間) |
1015 |
|
1016 |
=head3 The C<CORE::> prefix |
1017 |
|
1018 |
(C<CORE::> 前置詞) |
1019 |
|
1020 |
=begin original |
1021 |
|
1022 |
The C<CORE::> prefix can now be used on keywords enabled by |
1023 |
L<feature.pm|feature>, even outside the scope of C<use feature>. |
1024 |
|
1025 |
=end original |
1026 |
|
1027 |
C<CORE::> 前置詞は、たとえ C<use feature> スコープの外側でも、 |
1028 |
L<feature.pm|feature> で有効になるキーワードで使われるようになりました。 |
1029 |
|
1030 |
=head3 Subroutines in the C<CORE> namespace |
1031 |
|
1032 |
(C<CORE> 名前空間のサブルーチン) |
1033 |
|
1034 |
=begin original |
1035 |
|
1036 |
Many Perl keywords are now available as subroutines in the CORE namespace. |
1037 |
This allows them to be aliased: |
1038 |
|
1039 |
=end original |
1040 |
|
1041 |
多くの Perl キーワードが CORE 名前空間で利用可能になりました。 |
1042 |
これにより以下のように別名にできるようになります: |
1043 |
|
1044 |
BEGIN { *entangle = \&CORE::tie } |
1045 |
entangle $variable, $package, @args; |
1046 |
|
1047 |
=begin original |
1048 |
|
1049 |
And for prototypes to be bypassed: |
1050 |
|
1051 |
=end original |
1052 |
|
1053 |
そしてプロトタイプを回避するには: |
1054 |
|
1055 |
sub mytie(\[%$*@]$@) { |
1056 |
my ($ref, $pack, @args) = @_; |
1057 |
... do something ... |
1058 |
goto &CORE::tie; |
1059 |
} |
1060 |
|
1061 |
=begin original |
1062 |
|
1063 |
Some of these cannot be called through references or via C<&foo> syntax, |
1064 |
but must be called as barewords. |
1065 |
|
1066 |
=end original |
1067 |
|
1068 |
これらの一部はリファレンスや C<&foo> 文法では呼び出すことができず、 |
1069 |
裸の単語で呼び出さなければなりません。 |
1070 |
|
1071 |
=begin original |
1072 |
|
1073 |
See L<CORE> for details. |
1074 |

|
1085 |
(無名ハンドル) |
1086 |
|
1087 |
=begin original |
1088 |
|
1089 |
Automatically generated file handles are now named __ANONIO__ when the |
1090 |
variable name cannot be determined, rather than $__ANONIO__. |
1091 |
|
1092 |
=end original |
1093 |
|
1094 |
変数名が決定できないときに自動的に生成されるファイルハンドルの名前は |
1095 |
$__ANONIO__ ではなく __ANONIO__ になりました。 |

1097 |
=head3 Autoloaded sort Subroutines |
1098 |
|
1099 |
(ソートサブルーチンがオートロードされるように) |
1100 |
|
1101 |
=begin original |
1102 |
|
1103 |
Custom sort subroutines can now be autoloaded [perl #30661]: |
1104 |
|
1105 |
=end original |
1106 |
|
1107 |
カスタムソートサブルーチンはオートロードされるようになりました |
1108 |
[perl #30661]: |
1109 |
|
1110 |
sub AUTOLOAD { ... } |
1111 |
@sorted = sort foo @list; # uses AUTOLOAD |
1112 |
|
1113 |
=head3 C<continue> no longer requires the "switch" feature |
1114 |
|
1115 |
(C<continue> には "switch" は不要に) |
1116 |
|
1117 |
=begin original |
1118 |
|
1119 |
The C<continue> keyword has two meanings. It can introduce a C<continue> |
1120 |
block after a loop, or it can exit the current C<when> block. Up till now, |
1121 |
the latter meaning was only valid with the "switch" feature enabled, and |
1122 |
was a syntax error otherwise. Since the main purpose of feature.pm is to |
1123 |
avoid conflicts with user-defined subroutines, there is no reason for |
1124 |
C<continue> to depend on it. |
1125 |
|
1126 |
=end original |
1127 |
|
1128 |
C<continue> キーワードには二つの意味があります。 |
1129 |
ループの後に C<continue> ブロックを導入する意味と、現在の C<when> ブロックを |
1130 |
出る意味です。 |
1131 |
今まで、後者の意味は "switch" 機能が有効の場合にのみ正当で、さもなければ |
1132 |
文法エラーでした。 |
1133 |
feature.pm の主な目的はユーザー定義サブルーチンとの衝突を避けることなので、 |
1134 |
C<continue> がこれに依存している意味はありません。 |
1135 |
|
1136 |
=head3 DTrace probes for interpreter phase change |
1137 |
|
1138 |
(インタプリタフェーズ変更のための DTrace プローブ) |
1139 |
|
1140 |
=begin original |
1141 |
|
1142 |
The C<phase-change> probes will fire when the interpreter's phase |
1143 |
changes, which tracks the C<${^GLOBAL_PHASE}> variable. C<arg0> is |
1144 |
the new phase name; C<arg1> is the old one. This is useful mostly |
1145 |
for limiting your instrumentation to one or more of: compile time, |
1146 |
run time, destruct time. |
1147 |
|
1148 |
=end original |
1149 |
|
1150 |
C<phase-change> プローブは、C<${^GLOBAL_PHASE}> 変数を |
1151 |
追跡することによって、インタプリタのフェーズが変わったときに起動されます。 |
1152 |
C<arg0> は新しいフェーズ名です; C<arg1> は古いフェーズ名です。 |
1153 |
これはコンパイル時、実行時、破壊時に装備を制限するために普通は有用です。 |
1154 |
|
1155 |
=head3 C<__FILE__()> Syntax |
1156 |
|
1157 |
(C<__FILE__()> 文法) |
1158 |
|
1159 |
=begin original |
1160 |
|
1161 |
The C<__FILE__>, C<__LINE__> and C<__PACKAGE__> tokens can now be written |
1162 |
with an empty pair of parentheses after them. This makes them parse the |
1163 |
same way as C<time>, C<fork> and other built-in functions. |
1164 |
|
1165 |
=end original |
1166 |
|
1167 |
C<__FILE__>, C<__LINE__>, C<__PACKAGE__> トークンは、後ろに空のかっこの |
1168 |
組を書けるようになりました。 |
1169 |
これにより C<time>, C<fork> やその他の組み込み関数と同じ方法で |
1170 |
パースできるようになります。 |
1171 |
|
1172 |
=head3 The C<\$> prototype accepts any scalar lvalue |
1173 |
|
1174 |
(C<\$> プロトタイプは任意のスカラ左辺値を受け付けるように) |
1175 |
|
1176 |
=begin original |
1177 |
|
1178 |
The C<\$> and C<\[$]> subroutine prototypes now accept any scalar lvalue |
1179 |
argument. Previously they only accepted scalars beginning with C<$> and |
1180 |
hash and array elements. This change makes them consistent with the way |
1181 |
the built-in C<read> and C<recv> functions (among others) parse their |
1182 |
arguments. This means that one can override the built-in functions with |
1183 |
custom subroutines that parse their arguments the same way. |
1184 |
|
1185 |
=end original |
1186 |
|
1187 |
C<\$> と C<\[$]> のサブルーチンプロトタイプは任意のスカラ左辺値引数を |
1188 |
受け付けるようになりました。 |
1189 |
以前は C<$> で始まるスカラとハッシュおよび配列の要素のみを |
1190 |
受け付けていました。 |
1191 |
この変更により組み込みの C<read> 関数と C<recv> 関数が(特に)引数を |
1192 |
パースする方法と一貫性があるようになります。 |
1193 |
これは、同じ方法で引数をパースするカスタムサブルーチンで組み込み関数を |
1194 |
オーバーライドできることを意味します。 |
1195 |
|
1196 |
=head3 C<_> in subroutine prototypes |

1200 |
=begin original |
1201 |

The C<_> character in subroutine prototypes is now allowed before C<@> or |
1203 |
C<%>. |
1204 |

Calling C<File::Glob::bsd_glob> with the unsupported flag |
1257 |
GLOB_ALTDIRFUNC would cause an access violation / segfault. A Perl |
1258 |
program that accepts a flags value from an external source could expose |
1259 |
itself to denial of service or arbitrary code execution attacks. There |
1260 |
are no known exploits in the wild. The problem has been corrected by |

explicitly disabling all unsupported flags and setting unused function |

1673 |
|
1674 |
The C<*{...}> operator, when passed a reference to an IO thingy (as in |
1675 |
C<*{*STDIN{IO}}>), creates a new typeglob containing just that IO object. |
1676 |
Previously, it would stringify as an empty string, but some operators would |
1677 |
treat it as undefined, producing an "uninitialized" warning. |
1678 |
Now it stringifies as __ANONIO__ [perl #96326]. |

=begin original |
1712 |
|

XSUB C functions are now 'static', that is, they are not visible from |
1714 |
outside the compilation unit. Users can use the new C<XS_EXTERNAL(name)> |
1715 |
and C<XS_INTERNAL(name)> macros to pick the desired linking behaviour. |
1716 |
The ordinary C<XS(name)> declaration for XSUBs will continue to declare |
1717 |
non-'static' XSUBs for compatibility, but the XS compiler, |
1718 |
C<ExtUtils::ParseXS> (C<xsubpp>) will emit 'static' XSUBs by default. |
1719 |
C<ExtUtils::ParseXS>'s behaviour can be reconfigured from XS using the |
1720 |
C<EXPORT_XSUB_SYMBOLS> keyword. See L<perlxs> for details. |
1721 |
|
1722 |
=end original |
1723 |
|
1724 |
XSUB C 関数は 'static' になりました; つまり、コンパイル単位の外側からは |
1725 |
見えなくなりました。 |
1726 |
ユーザーは求めるリンクの振る舞いを得るために新しい |
1727 |
C<XS_EXTERNAL(name)> マクロと C<XS_INTERNAL(name)> マクロを使えます。 |
1728 |
XSUB の通常の C<XS(name)> 宣言は互換性のために非 'static' な XSUB を |
1729 |
宣言するままですが、XS コンパイラ C<ExtUtils::ParseXS> (C<xsubpp>) は |
1730 |
デフォルトでは 'static' XSUB を出力します。 |
1731 |
C<ExtUtils::ParseXS> の振る舞いは C<EXPORT_XSUB_SYMBOLS> キーワードを |
1732 |
使った XS によって再設定できます。 |

=head2 Tying scalars that hold typeglobs |

(型グロブを保持しているスカラの tie) |
1752 |
|
1753 |
=begin original |
1754 |
|
1755 |
Attempting to tie a scalar after a typeglob was assigned to it would |
1756 |
instead tie the handle in the typeglob's IO slot. This meant that it was |
1757 |
impossible to tie the scalar itself. Similar problems affected C<tied> and |
1758 |
C<untie>: C<tied $scalar> would return false on a tied scalar if the last |
1759 |
thing returned was a typeglob, and C<untie $scalar> on such a tied scalar |
1760 |
would do nothing. |
1761 |
|
1762 |
=end original |
1763 |
|
1764 |
型グロブを代入された後のスカラを tie しようとすると、代わりに型グロブの |
1765 |
IO スロットにあるハンドルが tie されます。 |
1766 |
これは、スカラ自身を tie することが不可能になると言うことを意味します。 |
1767 |
似たような問題は C<tied> と C<untie> に影響を与えます: C<tied $scalar> は |
1768 |
最後に返されたものが型グロブの場合は tie されたスカラに偽を返し、 |
1769 |
そのような tie されたスカラに C<untie $scalar> しても何も起きません。 |
1770 |
|
1771 |
=begin original |
1772 |
|
1773 |
We fixed this problem before Perl 5.14.0, but it caused problems with some |
1774 |
CPAN modules, so we put in a deprecation cycle instead. |
1775 |
|
1776 |
=end original |
1777 |
|
1778 |
私たちはこの問題を Perl 5.14.0 の前に修正しましたが、これは一部の |

非推奨サイクルに入れることにしました。 |
1781 |
|
1782 |
=begin original |
1783 |
|
1784 |
Now the deprecation has been removed and this bug has been fixed. So |
1785 |
C<tie $scalar> will always tie the scalar, not the handle it holds. To tie |
1786 |
the handle, use C<tie *$scalar> (with an explicit asterisk). The same |
1787 |
applies to C<tied *$scalar> and C<untie *$scalar>. |
1788 |
|
1789 |
=end original |
1790 |
|
1791 |
今回非推奨は削除され、バグは修正されました。 |
1792 |
それで C<tie $scalar> は、スカラが保存しているハンドルではなく、スカラ自身を |
1793 |
tie します。 |
1794 |
ハンドルを tie するには、C<tie *$scalar> を(明示的なアスタリスク付きで) |
1795 |
使ってください。 |
1796 |
同じ内容は C<tied *$scalar> と C<untie *$scalar> にも適用されます。 |

The fix for those breakages is to use C<PerlProc_gete?[ug]id()> to |

retrieve them (e.g. C<PerlProc_getuid()>), and not to assign to |
1924 |
C<PL_e?[ug]id> if you change the UID/GID/EUID/EGID. There is no longer |

1974 |
|
1975 |
Matching a code point against a Unicode property is now done via a |
1976 |
binary search instead of linear. This means for example that the worst |
1977 |
case for a 1000 item property is 10 probes instead of 1000. This |
1978 |
inefficiency has been compensated for in the past by permanently storing |
1979 |
in a hash the results of a given probe plus the results for the adjacent |
1980 |
64 code points, under the theory that near-by code points are likely to |
1981 |
be searched for. A separate hash was used for each mention of a Unicode |
1982 |
property in each regular expression. Thus, C<qr/\p{foo}abc\p{foo}/> |
1983 |
would generate two hashes. Any probes in one instance would be unknown |
1984 |
to the other, and the hashes could expand separately to be quite large |
1985 |
if the regular expression were used on many different widely-separated |
1986 |
code points. This can lead to running out of memory in extreme cases. |
1987 |
Now, however, there is just one hash shared by all instances of a given |
1988 |
property. This means that if C<\p{foo}> is matched against "A" in one |
1989 |
regular expression in a thread, the result will be known immediately to |
1990 |
all regular expressions, and the relentless march of using up memory is |
1991 |
slowed considerably. |

Perl 5.12.0 sped up the destruction of objects whose classes define |

C<dbmopen> treats a 0 mode as a special case, that prevents a nonexistent |

file from being created. This has been the case since Perl 5.000, but was |

Padlists are now marked C<AvREAL>; i.e., reference-counted. They have |
3666 |
always been reference-counted, but were not marked real, because F<pad.c> |
3667 |
did its own clean-up, instead of using the usual clean-up code in F<sv.c>. |
3668 |
That caused problems in thread cloning, so now the C<AvREAL> flag is on, |
3669 |
but is turned off in F<pad.c> right before the padlist is freed (after |
3670 |
F<pad.c> has done its custom freeing of the pads). |

Perl now checks whether the array (the linearised isa) returned by a MRO |

3748 |
created, instead of assuming that it does. This prevents the first element |
3749 |
from being skipped during method lookup. It also means that |
3750 |
C<mro::get_linear_isa> may return an array with one more element than the |
3751 |

There are now feature bundle hints in C<PL_hints> (C<$^H>) that version |

3761 |
the hint bits indicates a "custom" feature bundle, which means that the |
3762 |

3763 |
|
3764 |
The C<HINT_FEATURE_MASK> macro is defined in F<perl.h> along with other |
3765 |
hints. Other macros for setting and testing features and bundles are in |
3766 |
the new F<feature.h>. C<FEATURE_IS_ENABLED> (which has moved to |

When hash elements are deleted in void context, the internal hash entry is |

Copy-on-write or shared hash key scalars |

3958 |
5.10.0 extended them, such that assigning C<__PACKAGE__> or a |

When subroutine calls are intercepted by the debugger, the name of the |

4044 |
to access. In some cases (such as C<$foo = *bar; undef *bar; &$foo>) |
4045 |
C<$DB::sub> would be set to a name that could not be used to find the |
4046 |
subroutine, and so the debugger's attempt to call it would fail. Now the |
4047 |
check to see whether a reference is needed is more robust, so those |

accessed. It is used by C<$.> and by C<tell> and C<eof> without |
4093 |
arguments. |

It used to be possible to set this internal variable to a glob copy and |
4100 |
then modify that glob copy to be something other than a glob, and still |
4101 |
have the last-accessed filehandle associated with the variable after |
4102 |
assigning a glob to it again: |
4103 |
|
4104 |
my $foo = *STDOUT; # $foo is a glob copy |
4105 |
<$foo>; # $foo is now the last-accessed handle |
4106 |
$foo = 3; # no longer a glob |
4107 |
$foo = *STDERR; # still the last-accessed handle |
4108 |
|
4109 |
Now the C<$foo = 3> assignment unsets that internal variable, so there |
4110 |
is no last-accessed filehandle, just as if C<< <$foo> >> had never |
4111 |
happened. |
4112 |
|
4113 |
This also prevents some unrelated handle from becoming the last-accessed |
4114 |
handle if $foo falls out of scope and the same internal SV gets used for |
4115 |
another handle [perl #97988]. |
4116 |
|
4117 |
=item * |
4118 |

4119 |
A regression in 5.14 caused these statements not to set that internal |
4120 |
variable: |
4121 |
|
4122 |
my $fh = *STDOUT; |
4123 |
tell $fh; |
4124 |
eof $fh; |
4125 |
seek $fh, 0,0; |
4126 |
tell *$fh; |
4127 |
eof *$fh; |
4128 |
seek *$fh, 0,0; |
4129 |
readline *$fh; |
4130 |
|
4131 |
This is now fixed, but C<tell *{ *$fh }> still has the problem, and it |
4132 |
is not clear how to fix it [perl #106536]. |

=head2 Filetests and C<stat> |
4137 |
|
4138 |
The term "filetests" refers to the operators that consist of a hyphen |
4139 |
followed by a single letter: C<-r>, C<-x>, C<-M>, etc. The term "stacked" |
4140 |
when applied to filetests means followed by another filetest operator |
4141 |
sharing the same operand, as in C<-r -x -w $fooo>. |

C<stat> produces more consistent warnings. It no longer warns for "_" |
4148 |
[perl #71002] and no longer skips the warning at times for other unopened |
4149 |
handles. It no longer warns about an unopened handle when the operating |
4150 |
system's C<fstat> function fails. |
4151 |
|
4152 |
=item * |
4153 |
|
4154 |
C<stat> would sometimes return negative numbers for large inode numbers, |
4155 |
because it was using the wrong internal C type. [perl #84590] |
4156 |
|
4157 |
=item * |
4158 |
|
4159 |
C<lstat> is documented to fall back to C<stat> (with a warning) when given |
4160 |
a filehandle. When passed an IO reference, it was actually doing the |
4161 |
equivalent of S<C<stat _>> and ignoring the handle. |
4162 |
|
4163 |
=item * |
4164 |
|
4165 |
C<-T _> with no preceding C<stat> used to produce a |
4166 |
confusing "uninitialized" warning, even though there |
4167 |
is no visible uninitialized value to speak of. |
4168 |
|
4169 |
=item * |
4170 |
|
4171 |
C<-T>, C<-B>, C<-l> and C<-t> now work |
4172 |
when stacked with other filetest operators |
4173 |
[perl #77388]. |
4174 |
|
4175 |
=item * |
4176 |
|
4177 |
In 5.14.0, filetest ops (C<-r>, C<-x>, etc.) started calling FETCH on a |
4178 |
tied argument belonging to the previous argument to a list operator, if |
4179 |
called with a bareword argument or no argument at all. This has been |
4180 |
fixed, so C<push @foo, $tied, -r> no longer calls FETCH on C<$tied>. |
4181 |
|
4182 |
=item * |
4183 |
|
4184 |
In Perl 5.6, C<-l> followed by anything other than a bareword would treat |
4185 |
its argument as a file name. That was changed in 5.8 for glob references |
4186 |
(C<\*foo>), but not for globs themselves (C<*foo>). C<-l> started |
4187 |
returning C<undef> for glob references without setting the last |
4188 |
stat buffer that the "_" handle uses, but only if warnings |
4189 |
were turned on. With warnings off, it was the same as 5.6. |
4190 |
In other words, it was simply buggy and inconsistent. Now the 5.6 |
4191 |
behaviour has been restored. |
4192 |
|
4193 |
=item * |
4194 |
|
4195 |
C<-l> followed by a bareword no longer "eats" the previous argument to |
4196 |
the list operator in whose argument list it resides. Hence, |
4197 |
C<print "bar", -l foo> now actually prints "bar", because C<-l> |
4198 |
on longer eats it. |
4199 |
|
4200 |
=item * |
4201 |
|
4202 |
Perl keeps several internal variables to keep track of the last stat |
4203 |
buffer, from which file(handle) it originated, what type it was, and |
4204 |
whether the last stat succeeded. |
4205 |
|
4206 |
There were various cases where these could get out of synch, resulting in |
4207 |
inconsistent or erratic behaviour in edge cases (every mention of C<-T> |
4208 |
applies to C<-B> as well): |

C<-T I<HANDLE>>, even though it does a C<stat>, was not resetting the last |
4215 |
stat type, so an C<lstat _> following it would merrily return the wrong |
4216 |
results. Also, it was not setting the success status. |
4217 |
|
4218 |
=item * |
4219 |

Freeing the handle last used by C<stat> or a filetest could result in |
4221 |
S<C<-T _>> using an unrelated handle. |
4222 |
|
4223 |
=item * |
4224 |
|
4225 |
C<stat> with an IO reference would not reset the stat type or record the |
4226 |
filehandle for S<C<-T _>> to use. |
4227 |
|
4228 |
=item * |
4229 |
|
4230 |
Fatal warnings could cause the stat buffer not to be reset |
4231 |
for a filetest operator on an unopened filehandle or C<-l> on any handle. |
4232 |
Fatal warnings also stopped C<-T> from setting C<$!>. |
4233 |

4234 |
=item * |
4235 |
|
4236 |
When the last stat was on an unreadable file, C<-T _> is supposed to |
4237 |
return C<undef>, leaving the last stat buffer unchanged. But it was |
4238 |
setting the stat type, causing C<lstat _> to stop working. |
4239 |

4240 |

C<-T I<FILENAME>> was not resetting the internal stat buffers for |

A number of edge cases have been fixed with formats and C<formline>; |
4258 |
in particular, where the format itself is potentially variable (such as |
4259 |
with ties and overloading), and where the format and data differ in their |
4260 |
encoding. In both these cases, it used to possible for the output to be |

corrupted [perl #91032]. |
4262 |

C<formline> no longer converts its argument into a string in-place. So |

C<given> was not calling set-magic on the implicit lexical C<$_> that it |

On OSes other than VMS, Perl's C<glob> operator (and the C<< <...> >> form) |
4306 |
use L<File::Glob> underneath. L<File::Glob> splits the pattern into words, |
4307 |
before feeding each word to its C<bsd_glob> function. |
4308 |
|
4309 |
There were several inconsistencies in the way the split was done. Now |
4310 |
quotation marks (' and ") are always treated as shell-style word delimiters |
4311 |
(that allow whitespace as part of a word) and backslashes are always |
4312 |
preserved, unless they exist to escape quotation marks. Before, those |
4313 |
would only sometimes be the case, depending on whether the pattern |
4314 |
contained whitespace. Also, escaped whitespace at the end of the pattern |
4315 |
is no longer stripped [perl #40470]. |

Lvalue subroutines used to enforce lvalue syntax (i.e., whatever can go on |
4343 |
the left-hand side of C<=>) for the last statement and the arguments to |
4344 |
return. Since lvalue subroutines are not always called in lvalue context, |

this restriction has been lifted. |

Lvalue subroutines are less restrictive as to what values can be returned. |

Lvalue subroutines used to copy their return values in rvalue context. Not |

only was this a waste of CPU cycles, but it also caused bugs. A C<($)> |

prototype would cause an lvalue sub to copy its return value [perl #51408], |
4369 |
and C<while(lvalue_sub() =~ m/.../g) { ... }> would loop endlessly |

When called in potential lvalue context |
4375 |
(e.g., subroutine arguments or a list |

passed to C<for>), lvalue subroutines used to copy |
4377 |
any read-only value that was returned. E.g., C< sub :lvalue { $] } > |
4378 |
would not return C<$]>, but a copy of it. |

4382 |
When called in potential lvalue context, an lvalue subroutine returning |
4383 |
arrays or hashes used to bind the arrays or hashes to scalar variables, |
4384 |
resulting in bugs. This was fixed in 5.14.0 if an array were the first |
4385 |
thing returned from the subroutine (but not for C<$scalar, @array> or |
4386 |
hashes being returned). Now a more general fix has been applied |

[perl #23790]. |

|
4391 |
Method calls whose arguments were all surrounded with C<my()> or C<our()> |
4392 |
(as in C<< $object->method(my($a,$b)) >>) used to force lvalue context on |
4393 |
the subroutine. This would prevent lvalue methods from returning certain |
4394 |
values. |
4395 |

Lvalue sub calls that are not determined to be such at compile time |

Sub calls whose subs are not visible at compile time, if |

4407 |
subroutine call" [perl #102486]. |
4408 |
|
4409 |
Non-lvalue sub calls whose subs I<are> visible at compile time exhibited |
4410 |
the opposite bug. If the call occurred in the last statement of an lvalue |
4411 |
subroutine, there would be no error when the lvalue sub was called in |
4412 |
lvalue context. Perl would blindly assign to the temporary value returned |
4413 |
by the non-lvalue subroutine. |

C<AUTOLOAD> routines used to take precedence over the actual sub being |

Applying the C<:lvalue> attribute to an XSUB or to an aliased subroutine |

4428 |
=item * |
4429 |
|
4430 |
Applying the :lvalue attribute to subroutine that is already defined does |
4431 |
not work properly, as the attribute changes the way the sub is compiled. |
4432 |
Hence, Perl 5.12 began warning when an attempt is made to apply the |
4433 |
attribute to an already defined sub. In such cases, the attribute is |
4434 |
discarded. |
4435 |
|
4436 |
But the change in 5.12 missed the case where custom attributes are also |
4437 |
present: that case still silently and ineffectively applied the attribute. |
4438 |
That omission has now been corrected. C<sub foo :lvalue :Whatever> (when |
4439 |
C<foo> is already defined) now warns about the :lvalue attribute, and does |
4440 |
not apply it. |

A bug affecting lvalue context propagation through nested lvalue subroutine |

A regression introduced in 5.13.6 has |

GREEK SMALL LETTER UPSILON WITH DIALYTIKA AND TONOS, |
4599 |
along with the sequences that they fold to |
4600 |
(including "ss" in the case of LATIN SMALL LETTER SHARP S), |
4601 |
did not properly match under C</i>. 5.14.0 fixed some of these cases, |
4602 |
but introduced others, including a panic when one of the characters or |
4603 |
sequences was used in the C<(?(DEFINE)> regular expression predicate. |
4604 |
The known bugs that were introduced in 5.14 have now been fixed; as well |
4605 |
as some other edge cases that have never worked until now. All these |

When Perl autovivifies an element of a tied array or hash (which entails |
4980 |
calling STORE with a new reference), it now calls FETCH immediately after |
4981 |
the STORE, instead of assuming that FETCH would have returned the same |
4982 |
reference. This can make it easier to implement tied objects [perl #35865, #43011]. |

A bug has been fixed that occurs when a tied variable is used as a |
5003 |
subroutine reference: if the last thing assigned to or returned from the |
5004 |
variable was a reference or typeglob, the C<\&$tied> could either crash or |
5005 |
return the wrong subroutine. The reference case is a regression introduced |
5006 |
in Perl 5.10.0. For typeglobs, it has probably never worked till now. |

The bitwise complement operator (and possibly other operators, too) when |
5017 |
passed a vstring would leave vstring magic attached to the return value, |
5018 |
even though the string had changed. This meant that |
5019 |
C<< version->new(~v1.2.3) >> would create a version looking like "v1.2.3" |
5020 |
even though the string passed to C<< version->new >> was actually |
5021 |
"\376\375\374". This also caused L<B::Deparse> to deparse C<~v1.2.3> |

Assigning a vstring to a magic (e.g., tied, C<$!>) variable and then |

Subroutines from the C<autouse> namespace are once more exempt from |

New XSUBs now produce redefinition warnings if they overwrite existing |

C<newCONSTSUB> used to use compile-time warning hints, instead of |

Redefinition warnings for constant subroutines are on by default (what |

C<&&> and C<||> on the right-hand side could fool it. So C<($a,$b) = |

C<setpgrp($foo)> used to be equivalent to C<($foo, setpgrp)>, because |
5412 |
C<setpgrp> was ignoring its argument if there was just one. Now it is |
5413 |
equivalent to C<setpgrp($foo,0)>. |

C<shmread> was not setting the scalar flags correctly when reading from |

C<< $$ >> is no longer tainted. Since this value comes directly from |

On Solaris, we have two kinds of failure. |
5456 |
|
5457 |
If F<make> is Sun's F<make≥>, we get an error about a badly formed macro |
5458 |
assignment in the F<Makefile>. That happens when F<./Configure> tries to |
5459 |
make depends. F<Configure> then exits 0, but further F<make>-ing fails. |
5460 |
|
5461 |
If F<make> is F<gmake>, F<Configure> completes, then we get errors related |
5462 |
to F</usr/include/stdbool.h> |

=head1 Reporting Bugs |
5498 |
|
5499 |
If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the articles |
5500 |
recently posted to the comp.lang.perl.misc newsgroup and the perl |
5501 |
bug database at L<http://rt.perl.org/perlbug/>. There may also be |
5502 |
information at L<http://www.perl.org/>, the Perl Home Page. |
5503 |
|
5504 |
If you believe you have an unreported bug, please run the L<perlbug> |
5505 |
program included with your release. Be sure to trim your bug down |
5506 |
to a tiny but sufficient test case. Your bug report, along with the |
5507 |
output of C<perl -V>, will be sent off to perlbug@perl.org to be |
5508 |
analysed by the Perl porting team. |
5509 |
|
5510 |
If the bug you are reporting has security implications, which make it |
5511 |
inappropriate to send to a publicly archived mailing list, then please |
5512 |
send it to perl5-security-report@perl.org. This points to a closed |
5513 |
subscription unarchived mailing list, which includes all the core |
5514 |
committers, who will be able to help assess the impact of issues, figure |
5515 |
out a resolution, and help co-ordinate the release of patches to |
5516 |
mitigate or fix the problem across all platforms on which Perl is |
5517 |
supported. Please only use this address for security issues in the Perl |
5518 |
core, not for modules independently distributed on CPAN. |
