Revision history for Scope-Upper

0.10    2010-01-18 23:50 UTC
        + Fix : Properly handle given/when on 5.10.
        + Fix : Some stack inconsistencies were fixed, though they were unlikely
                to have an impact on your real-life code.
        + Fix : Work around Kwalitee test misfailures.

0.09    2009-05-17 20:20 UTC
        + Add : The new SU_THREADSAFE constant can be used to know whether the
                module could have been built with thread safety enabled.
        + Chg : Thread safety is disabled for perl 5.8 on Win32.
        + Chg : A saner workaround for the "call_sv() during LEAVE clobbers the
                still used last popped stack element" issue on 5.10.

0.08    2009-04-16 22:50 UTC
        + Fix : [RT #44204] : Stack corruption with reap(). Thanks Torsten
                Foertsch for reporting.
        + Fix : Building with Solaris CC.
        + Tst : unwind() in threads.

0.07    2009-02-20 00:20 UTC
        + Chg : The CLONE method will no longer be defined for non-threaded
                perls.
        + Doc : Some examples on how to build the target context from the words.
        + Fix : Some unlikely possible uninitialized reads, indirectly pointed
                out in a Redhat review request.
        + Fix : "localize *x, 'y' => $cxt" now matches Perl's behaviour for
                "local *x = 'y'".
        + Fix : Miscellanous code cleanups, courtesy of Florian Ragwitz.
        + Upd : Resources in META.yml.

0.06    2009-01-17 00:05 UTC
        + Chg : INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: The level is now absolute and no longer
                relative to the current frame - we'll call it "context" from now
                on. You should replace all your raw levels by combinations of
                words.
                The old behaviour of "=> $n" can be easily reobtained by using
                "=> SCOPE($n)".
        + Fix : As a result of this change, the module now plays nicely with
                the debugger.

0.05    2009-01-12 18:15 UTC
        + Fix : Stack mess when using unwind() in scalar context.
        + Fix : Returning an automatic variable isn't wise, so let's use a
                context instead.
        + Doc : Clarifications.
        + Tst : Stress tests for unwind().

0.04    2009-01-11 18:40 UTC
        + Add : unwind(@things, $level), that returns to an upper context.
        + Add : want_at($level), that gives the wantarray for $level.
        + Add : Control words, to reliably get the level of the n-th upper
                subroutine or eval scope. TOPLEVEL was renamed to TOP.
        + Fix : Tests with 5.6.
        + Tst : Reordering and factoring some of the stress tests so that they
                aren't needlessly ran several times.

0.03    2009-01-04 15:55 UTC
        + Add : localize_delete(), that localize array/hash elements in upper
                scopes.
        + Fix : Segfault when localizing array elements with an invalid negative
                index.

0.02    2008-12-28 18:40 UTC
        + Doc : Clarifications and improvements.
        + Fix : Missing compatibility macros.
        + Fix : Localized nonexistant array elements should be deleted when
                their time comes so that the array recovers its original length.

0.01    2008-12-26 16:05 UTC
        First version, released on an unsuspecting world.
