The validate_uid() function can be used to check whether + one such identifier is valid (i.e. that the scope it refers to + is still alive). + + Chg : It is no longer possible on perl 5.6 to call goto() in an + uplevel callback to replace the uplevel call. This change was + needed in order to ensure consistency between platforms + regarding to the following fix just below. + + Fix : The uplevel() tests now pass on Windows. + Thanks C.H. Kang for bringing this to my attention. + +0.17 2011-10-03 21:45 UTC + + Fix : uplevel() will now use the correct pad when executing its + callback. This fixes at least two issues : + - closures defined inside the uplevel callback can now correctly + access lexicals from inside and outside the callback. + - state variables in the uplevel callback now work properly. + + Fix : It is now generally possible to call goto() in the uplevel'd + code to replace the uplevel stack frame. There are two cases + for which it is still not possible : + - if -D flags were set when running perl (as in "perl -Dt ..."). + - if the perl runloop has been replaced with a custom one by + another module. + If uplevel() detects that the replacement code contains a goto + statement, and is in one of those two cases, then it will refuse + to execute the callback and throw an exception. + Note that this fix implies a run-time overhead of uplevel() + proportional to the size of the the callback in every case + (with a small ratio), and proportional to the size of ALL the + code executed as the result of the uplevel call (including + subroutine calls inside the callback) when a goto statement is + found in the uplevel callback. + + Fix : uplevel() has been taught how to handle XS callbacks properly. + + Fix : The cause of "Attempt to free unreferenced scalar" warnings + when using uplevel() has been addressed. + + Fix : [RT #71212] : build failure on Windows. + The module does no longer rely on calling Perl_cv_clone, which + isn't exported. + Thanks C.H. Kang for reporting. + +0.16 2011-09-03 23:00 UTC + + Add : uplevel($code, @args, $cxt) executes $code with arguments @args + in the upper context pointed by $cxt. + This is an XS version of the well-known uplevel() routine from + Sub::Uplevel. There are a few differences between both + implmentations that are listed in the documentation. + The XS version is roughly 10 times faster than the pure-Perl + version. + +0.15 2011-08-24 14:20 UTC + + Fix : Localizing subroutines in an higher scope will now correctly + update the method cache. + +0.14 2011-02-27 00:00 UTC + + Fix : [RT #64997] : Compatibility with perl 5.13.10. + Thanks Dave Mitchell for the notice. + + Tst : Lengthy tests have been ported to Test::Leaner, making the + whole test suite about 50% faster. + +0.13 2010-12-20 01:00 UTC + + Fix : [RT #61904] : Stack corruption when using unwind() under + Devel::NYTProf. + Thanks Sergey Aleynikov for contributing a fix. + + Fix : [RT #63378] : Compatibility with perl 5.13.8. + Thanks Andreas J. König for bisecting the issue. + + Tst : Threads tests are now only run on perl 5.13.4 and higher. + They could segfault randomly because of what seems to be an + internal bug of Perl, which has been addressed in 5.13.4. + There is also an environment variable that allows you to + forcefully run those tests, but it should be set only for + author testing and not for end users. + 0.12 2010-05-19 00:45 UTC + Fix : Compatibility with perl 5.13. + Fix : Test failures with perl 5.8.0.
