kurila112delta - what is new for Perl Kurila 1.12
This document describes differences between Perl Kurila 1.11 and Perl Kurila 1.12
Using a list in scalar context will raise an error
All variables must be declared or fully qualifyed as with use strict 'vars'
eval BOCK
has been changed to try BLOCK
If a list is used in scalar context an error will be raised. This can happen both at compile and run-time. Using an array in scalar context will still returns the number of elements of the array.
Makes the change of non-automaticly expanding arrays easier.
Variables must be declared or fully qualified, like with use strict
'vars'
.
Simplies things by always requiring use strict 'vars'
semantics
The expression eval BLOCK
has changed to try BLOCK
.
eval EXPR
remains the same.
Makes the distinction between the old eval BLOCK
and eval EXPR
explicit.
The transliteration operator (tr///
or y///
has been removed.
Barely used, and in almost all cases s///
can be used instead.
$&
, $`
and $'
are removed.The $^MATCH
, $^PREMATCH
, $^POSTMATCH
in combination with the
/p
still work, and can be used instead
Using them has serious performance penalties.
Documentation has not been updated for many of the changes for kurila.
Perl Kurila has only been tested/build for x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi platform.
The INSTALL file for how to build Perl Kurila.
The README file for general stuff.
The Artistic and Copying files for copyright information.
