version 0.010; 2023-03-24
* bugfix: interact nicely with lexical subroutines on Perl 5.17.4
and above
* bugfix: avoid overrunning Perl's value stack on threading Perl builds
* bugfix: where cancellation of a lexical item is requested via
unimportation, and a specific referent to cancel is given, don't
cancel if the specific referent was previously set up but has been
shadowed by a core lexical item
* bugfix: require bugfixed version of Lexical::SealRequireHints
(for more comprehensive coverage, for not breaking version-implied
features, and for require argument context)
* thread safety: use thread-safe wrap_op_checker() API to control
op checking
* thread safety: avoid using thread-unaware static storage to cache
thread-specific Perl values
* port to Perl 5.21.7 which made PADNAME a distinct type
* update test suite to not rely on . in @INC, which is no longer
necessarily there from Perl 5.25.7
* port to Perl 5.33.1, which defines a PERL_VERSION_GE() macro that
clashes with the one this module previously had
* in a couple of tests, work around a bug in Perl 5.37.4 (which was
fixed in Perl 5.37.5) which caused false test failures
* in documentation and error messages, make explicit distinction
between Lexical::Var lexical variables/subroutines and core lexical
variables/subroutines
* use some pad API features more cleanly
* be more conservative about the fake referent used when constructing
references to lexically-established scalars
* in a test, avoid a context problem when combining is_deeply and eval
* future-proof pad handling for the possibility of PL_comppad being
the target pad
* put whitespace around C string literals being pasted, for C++11
compatibility
* make ->unimport methods return an empty list
* test that suppression of a lexical subroutine brings the package
subroutine back into effect not just for calling, but also for the
syntactic and semantic effects of prototypes
* test with key/value array slices and key/value hash slices available
from Perl 5.19.4
* test that pad operations work correctly around lexical imports from
the builtin modle available from Perl 5.35.7
* test that pad operations work correctly around fields and $self in
the new core class system available from Perl 5.37.9
* test superficially the ability to operate with threads
* test that all modules have matching version numbers
* don't apply the fake referent workaround for buggy core checking of
rv2Xv ops on Perl 5.21.4 and above, where the bug has been fixed
* in test suite, suppress shadowing warnings by category, rather than
discarding all warnings
* no longer include a Makefile.PL in the distribution
* in documentation, use four-column indentation for all verbatim
material
* in META.{yml,json}, point to public bug tracker
* delete undocumented partially-developed functions
* in XS declare as const some data that never changes
* update the manipulation of read-only flags to account for the
SVf_PROTECT introduced in Perl 5.21.5, although the only code that
manipulates those flags isn't actually used on Perl versions new
enough to have the new flag
* use new names for pad API items such as PadnameOURSTASH()
* in XS, rename some poorly-named variables and functions
* in XS, refactor Perl version comparisons
* in XS, better argument parenthesisation in some macros
* avoid some compiler warnings that arise on Perl 5.6
* rename internal gen_*_op() function into a better style
* consistently use THX_ prefix on internal function names
