Revision history for Variable-Magic
+0.29 2009-02-08 11:10 UTC
+ + Add : Set $_[2] to the default length for len magic on scalars.
+ + Chg : Perl 5.8 is required.
+ + Chg : The CLONE method will no longer be defined for non-threaded
+ perls.
+ + Doc : Nits.
+ + Fix : The logic for turning off the GMAGICAL flag on hashes when no
+ uvar magic is involved could do nasty things on tied hashes.
+ + Upd : More resources in META.yml.
+
+0.28 2009-01-24 17:05 UTC
+ + Add : The 'copy_key' option to wizard(), that enables the safe edition
+ of $_[2] in uvar callbacks to redirect actions to another key.
+ + Fix : Exception objects thrown from callbacks at compile time were not
+ available in $@.
+ + Fix : free callbacks triggered during global destruction could lead to
+ segfaults because the wizard was already freed.
+ + Fix : Refcount of scalars with free callback.
+ + Fix : Segfaults when using get or uvar magic simultaneously with clear
+ magic.
+ + Doc : The documentation about what the callbacks take and should
+ return is now somewhat clearer.
+
+0.27 2009-01-18 23:40 UTC
+ + Fix : Offset of 1 with len magic on scalars.
+ + Fix : Segfaults that seem to happen when one croak in a callback at
+ compile time (thanks Ash Berlin for the testcase).
+ + Upd : Resources in META.yml (Florian Ragwitz)
+ + Tst : Large cleanup resulting in a wider set of tested behaviours.
+
+0.26 2008-11-29 22:05 UTC
+ + Fix : Leaks of cloned coderefs that access lexicals.
+ + Fix : Building with maint-5.8 and blead (thanks Andreas Koenig).
+
+0.25 2008-11-12 19:40 UTC
+ + Fix : Compatibility with 5.8.9.
+ + Fix : Old Pod::Coverage don't ignore CLONE.
+ + Upd : META.yml spec updated to 1.4.
+
+0.24 2008-10-12 14:55 UTC
+ + Fix : Really fix it.
+
+0.23 2008-10-11 17:25 UTC
+ + Fix : Building on perls with multiplicity but not ithreads.
+
+0.22 2008-09-29 19:40 UTC
+ + Doc : Explain how magic differs from overloading.
+ + Fix : Disable thread safety for perl 5.8 on Windows. If you want it
+ enabled, reliable feedback is welcome.
+
+0.21_02 2008-09-28 23:10 UTC
+ + Fix : Hide previously deleted magic tokens in vmg_svt_free (Yuval
+ Kogman).
+
+0.21_01 2008-09-22 13:25 UTC
+ + Chg : Shrink the context data.
+ + Fix : Enable thread safety features for perls that just lack
+ MY_CXT_CLONE.
+ + Tst : Output threads and threads::shared versions in threads tests.
+
+0.20 2008-09-20 23:35 UTC
+ + Fix : The module is now thread safe. You can test if it had been
+ built with thread safety features enabled through the
+ VMG_THREADSAFE constant.
+ + Fix : Correct backtrace when wizard() croaks.
+ + Fix : 'cast $a, undef' should throw an 'invalid wizard' error instead
+ of an 'invalid signature'.
+
+0.19 2008-07-05 15:05 UTC
+ + Add : The patchlevel with which the module has been built is now
+ exported with the VMG_PERL_PATCHLEVEL constant.
+ + Chg : Version checking macros overhaul.
+ + Fix : 'uvar' magic should only be enabled in maint-5.10 and higher
+ since it's never going to be backported to 5.8.
+ + Fix : Likewise, the copy callback API change should only be enabled in
+ 5.11 and higher.
+ + Fix : Instead of those ackward fake refcount increments in the wizard
+ destructor, flag the wizard with SVf_BREAK and force temps
+ cleanup. This should fix the wizard destruction for all perls,
+ and solves the leak introduced by the previous solution.
+
0.18 2008-07-04 12:20 UTC
+ Fix : Enable uvar magic when patchlevel >= 28419.
+ Fix : Set VMG_COMPAT_ARRAY_PUSH_NOLEN for Windows ActiveState Perl
