This change was + temporarily reverted, but is going to be reinstated, and + Variable::Magic is now able to play nicely when this happens. + Thanks Peter Rabbitson for reporting and David Mitchell for + providing a fix. + + +0.60 2016-09-06 22:30 UTC + + Chg : A large chunk of boilerplate XS code, which is also used in + other XS modules, has been factored out of the main .xs file + to a collection of .h files in the xsh subdirectory. + + Fix : [RT #128989] : Bleadperl v5.25.3-266-g1d7e644 breaks V::M. + Len magic is no longer called for negative array indices + fetches, so the relevant tests are now skipped. + Thanks Andreas Koenig for reporting. + +0.59 2015-10-05 19:05 UTC + + Chg : The magic callbacks are now always executed in a new stack. + This should have no negative impact (performance-wise or + behaviour-wise) on your code, but may actually fix some obscure + bugs. + + Fix : [RT #107294] : Crash during install of Variable-Magic-0.58 + running "t\18-opinfo.t". + A recent change in the core implementation of transliterations + caused an undefined behaviour when it interacted with this + module, which resulted in visible stack corruption on Win32 + perls compiled with MSVC when the op_info feature was enabled. + This was fixed by using a separate stack for the magic + callbacks. + Thanks Peter Stokes for reporting and providing greatly + helpful feedback. + + Fix : The object op_info feature will now handle correctly Unicode + transliteration, multideref and custom ops. + +0.58 2015-07-21 16:00 UTC + + Add : If a non-len magic callback returns a reference, it will now + only be freed at the end of the statement that caused the + magic to trigger. This allows the user to attach free magic + (or a plain destructor) to a token returned from the callbacks + in order to defer an action after the magic is processed by + perl. + + Fix : Test failures of threads tests on systems with harsh resource + constraints causing the threads to exit() during run. + 0.57 2015-04-17 15:20 UTC + Chg : The new environment variable to enable thread tests on older perls is PERL_FORCE_TEST_THREADS.
