Changes for version 0.12 - 2008-07-21

  • this release fixes compilation on Solaris broken in 0.11. If you were able to compile 0.11, then you weren't affected.
  • Changes since 0.11:
  • Fix compilation on Solaris. Ironically, 0.11 was supposed to fix unrecognized format problem on Solaris, but instead broke the compilation. Back in May the line
    • return XSRETURN_EMPTY;
  • has been introduced to the code, whereas it should be
    • XSRETURN_EMPTY;
  • It went unnoticed because expansion produces the code permitted by compilers like GCC that allow blocks to return a value. But Perl on Solaris has a different definition of this macro that is not an expression. Hence the problem.
