The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 1.35 - 1998-06-24

  • Removed "foreach my $var ( @list )" constructs, which were biting users with perl 5.003 and earlier.
  • Fixed bug calling &Parse::RecDescent::toksepcode instead of &Parse::RecDescent::Rule::toksepcode
  • Changed grammar so that colons in rule definitions must appear on the same line as the rule name (as documented). Added an explicit error message when this is not the case.
  • Added $thiscolumn, which indicates the current column at any point in the parse.
  • Added $thisoffset, which indicates the absolute position in the original text string at any point in the parse.
  • Added $prevline and $prevcolumn, which indicate line and column of the last char of the last successfully matched item.
  • Added @itempos which provides:
    • $itempos[$n]{offset}{from} $itempos[$n]{offset}{to} $itempos[$n]{line}{from} $itempos[$n]{line}{to} $itempos[$n]{column}{from} $itempos[$n]{column}{to}
    • corresponding to each $item[$n]. See new documentation.
  • Several trivial lexical changes to make xemacs happy
