Changes for version 0.24 - 2020-04-24

  • CHANGES
    • Further expanded the (undocumented) MOP API
      • Added beginnings of O:P:MOP::Class, O:P:MOP::Slot sufficient to create classes and add slots and methods to them
  • BUGFIXES
    • Ensure that anonymous methods can perform lexical captures from outside scopes (RT132178)
    • Ensure that subclasses without BUILD methods don't double invoke that of their superclass
    • Ensure a method's optree begins with OP_NEXTSTATE as debug tools may rely on this (RT132413)
    • Don't rely on Test::MemoryGrowth at test time, so tests can still pass on non-Linux
