- C/C++ Traps
- Sed Traps

- Perl4 to Perl5 Traps
-
Discontinuance, Deprecation, and BugFix traps, Parsing Traps, Numerical Traps, General data type traps, Context Traps - scalar, list contexts, Precedence Traps, General Regular Expression Traps using s///, etc, Subroutine, Signal, Sorting Traps, OS Traps, DBM Traps, Unclassified Traps
- Discontinuance, Deprecation, and BugFix traps
-
Symbols starting with "_" no longer forced into main, Double-colon valid package separator in variable name, 2nd and 3rd args to
splice()
are now in scalar context, Can't dogoto
into a block that is optimized away, Can't use whitespace as variable name or quote delimiter,while/if BLOCK BLOCK
gone,**
binds tighter than unary minus,foreach
changed when iterating over a list,split
with no args behavior changed, -e behavior fixed,push
returns number of elements in resulting list, Some error messages differ,split()
honors subroutine args, Bugs removed - Parsing Traps
-
Space between . and = triggers syntax error, Better parsing in perl 5, Function parsing, String interpolation of
$#array
differs, Perl guesses onmap
,grep
followed by{
if it starts BLOCK or hash ref - Numerical Traps
-
Formatted output and significant digits, Auto-increment operator over signed int limit deleted, Assignment of return values from numeric equality tests doesn't work, Bitwise string ops
- General data type traps
-
Negative array subscripts now count from the end of array, Setting
$#array
lower now discards array elements, Hashes get defined before use, Glob assignment from localized variable to variable, Assigningundef
to glob, Changes in unary negation (of strings), Modifying of constants prohibited,defined $var
behavior changed, Variable Suicide - Context Traps - scalar, list contexts
-
Elements of argument lists for formats evaluated in list context,
caller()
returns false value in scalar context if no caller present, Comma operator in scalar context gives scalar context to args,sprintf()
prototyped as($;@)
- Precedence Traps
-
LHS vs. RHS of any assignment operator, Semantic errors introduced due to precedence, Precedence of assignment operators same as the precedence of assignment,
open
requires parentheses around filehandle,$:
precedence over$::
gone, Precedence of file test operators documented,keys
,each
,values
are regular named unary operators - General Regular Expression Traps using s///, etc.
-
s'$lhs'$rhs'
interpolates on either side,m//g
attaches its state to the searched string,m//o
used within an anonymous sub,$+
isn't set to whole match, Substitution now returns null string if it fails,s`lhs`rhs`
is now a normal substitution, Stricter parsing of variables in regular expressions,m?x?
matches only once, Failed matches don't reset the match variables - Subroutine, Signal, Sorting Traps
-
Barewords that used to look like strings look like subroutine calls, Reverse is no longer allowed as the name of a sort subroutine,
warn()
won't let you specify a filehandle - OS Traps
-
SysV resets signal handler correctly, SysV
seek()
appends correctly - Interpolation Traps
-
@
always interpolates an array in double-quotish strings, Double-quoted strings may no longer end with an unescaped $, Arbitrary expressions are evaluated inside braces within double quotes,$$x
now tries to dereference $x, Creation of hashes on the fly witheval "EXPR"
requires protection, Bugs in earlier perl versions, Array and hash brackets during interpolation, Interpolation of\$$foo{bar}
,qq()
string passed toeval
will not find string terminator - DBM Traps
-
Perl5 must have been linked with same dbm/ndbm as the default for
dbmopen()
, DBM exceeding limit on the key/value size will cause perl5 to exit immediately - Unclassified Traps
-
require
/do
trap using returned value,split
on empty string with LIMIT specified

- perlunitut isn't really a Unicode tutorial, is it?
- What character encodings does Perl support?
- Which version of perl should I use?
- What about binary data, like images?
- When should I decode or encode?
- What if I don't decode?
- What if I don't encode?
- Is there a way to automatically decode or encode?
- What if I don't know which encoding was used?
- Can I use Unicode in my Perl sources?
- Data::Dumper doesn't restore the UTF8 flag; is it broken?
- Why do regex character classes sometimes match only in the ASCII range?
- Why do some characters not uppercase or lowercase correctly?
- How can I determine if a string is a text string or a binary string?
- How do I convert from encoding FOO to encoding BAR?
- What are
decode_utf8

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

- Arenas for GPs? For MAGIC?
- Tasks that need a knowledge of XS
-
- autovivification
- Unicode in Filenames
- Unicode in %ENV
- Unicode and glob()
- use less 'memory'
- Re-implement
:unique
in a way that is actually thread-safe - Make tainting consistent

is meaningful on Win32foreach (1..1000000)
optimizedFoo::
can be used as implicitly quoted package nameexists $Foo::{Bar::}
tests existence of a package- Better locale support

ExtUtils::MakeMaker::FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions About MakeMaker
- DESCRIPTION
-
- Module Installation
-
How do I install a module into my home directory?, How do I get MakeMaker and Module::Build to install to the same place?, How do I keep from installing man pages?, How do I use a module without installing it?, PREFIX vs INSTALL_BASE from Module::Build::Cookbook
- Philosophy and History
-
Why not just use <insert other build config tool here>?, What is 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?!, How do I delete everything not 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?
