perlhack - How to hack at the Perl internals
- DESCRIPTION
-
Does concept match the general goals of Perl?, Where is the implementation?, Backwards compatibility, Could it be a module instead?, Is the feature generic enough?, Does it potentially introduce new bugs?, Does it preclude other desirable features?, Is the implementation robust?, Is the implementation generic enough to be portable?, Is the implementation tested?, Is there enough documentation?, Is there another way to do it?, Does it create too much work?, Patches speak louder than words
- Keeping in sync

rsync'ing the source tree, Using rsync over the LAN, Using pushing over the NFS, rsync'ing the patches
- Why rsync the source tree
-
It's easier to rsync the source tree, It's more reliable
- Why rsync the patches
-
It's easier to rsync the patches, It's a good reference, Finding a start point, Finding how to fix a bug, Finding the source of misbehaviour

Why not just use <insert other build config tool here>?, What's Module::Build and how does it relate to MakeMaker?, pure perl. no make, no shell commands, easier to customize, cleaner internals, less cruft
- Module Writing
-
How do I keep my $VERSION up to date without resetting it manually?, What's this META.yml thing and how did it get in my MANIFEST?!
- XS
-
How to I prevent "object version X.XX does not match bootstrap parameter Y.YY" errors?, How do I make two or more XS files coexist in the same directory?

-
- The Problem
- A Solution
- Disabling or changing <no> behaviour
- All-in-one interface
- Filtering only specific components of source code
-
"code"
,"executable"
,"quotelike"
,"string"
,"regex"
,"all"
- Filtering only the code parts of source code
-
Most source code ceases to be grammatically correct when it is broken up into the pieces between string literals and regexes. So the
'code'
component filter behaves slightly differently from the other partial filters described in the previous section. - Using Filter::Simple with an explicit
import
