The London Perl and Raku Workshop takes place on 26th Oct 2024. If your company depends on Perl, please consider sponsoring and/or attending.

Changes for version 6.29 - 2005-05-19

  • The behavior of PL_FILES is restored to its pre-6.26 behavior as several CPAN modules depend on this. PL programs run via PL_FILES have INST_LIB and INST_ARCH in their @INC and so can load any just built modules.
  • Now honors PERL_CORE environment variable.
  • Testing to ensure FIRST_MAKEFILE is honored.
