Changes for version 0.35_01 - 2014-12-22

  • BACKWARDS-INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE
    • p()'s return value now defaults to 'pass'. Please see https://github.com/garu/Data-Printer/issues/16 for the full discussion. THIS WILL BREAK CODE RELYING ON p() TO RETURN A STRING. To fix your code, please set 'return_value' to 'dump' explicitly, or use the experimental np() function.
  • NEW HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE:
    • np(), a version of p() that always returns the string instead of printing it.
  • NEW FEATURES:
    • Add 'escape_chars' to allow \x{...} printing for chars (patch by Mark Fowler)
    • Class::Date support in the DateTime filter (Ivan Bessarabov)
  • BUG FIXES:
    • fixed crash in esoteric classes (github issue #41, thanks Ivan Bessarabov for reporting)
    • removed support for Digest::Haval256, as it can't really be observed without damaging the original data. If future versions provide a clone() function, it can be added again.
    • Being extra loud when rc files fail to load (RT#89203, thanks Caleb Cushing for reporting).
    • Prevents PERL5OPT from interfering with deparse tests (github issue #55, thanks David Precious for reporting)
  • OTHER:
    • more tests
    • new external filter indexed: PDL
