A bracketed character class containing a single Latin1-range character

different when encoded under UTF-8 versus not UTF-8 should not be marked
simple.
To fix this, the address of the flags parameter is now passed to
regclass(), the function that parses bracketed character classes, which
now sets it appropriately. The unconditional setting of SIMPLE that was
always done in the code after calling regclass() has been removed.
In addition, the setting of the flags for EXACT nodes has been pushed
into the common function that populates them.
regclass() will also now increment the naughtiness count if optimized to
a node that normally does that. I do not understand this heuristic
behavior very well, and could not come up with a test case for it;
experimentation revealed that there are no test cases in our test suite

705fe0e5f8a, when I made the parser understand format syntax

format =
@
.
The parser expects every format argument line to look like this:
formarg : /* NULL */
{ $$ = NULL; }
| FORMLBRACK stmtseq FORMRBRACK
{ $$ = op_unscope($2); }
;
When the line break is encountered after the @, the FORMLBRACK token
is emitted, and the lexer switches into ‘normal’ (as opposed to for-
mat picture) mode. When the final dot is encountered, since the
FORMLBRACK has already been emitted, the lexer has to conjure up a
FORMRBRACK as well, to avoid a syntax error.
I had it producing a semicolon before the FORMRBRACK, but that is not
necessary, because stmtseq can be null. So this commit removes it.

Remove spurious instruction to bump the perl version number from the RMG
Commit
30f926b5f1 moved version bump instructions from the start to the end
of the BLEAD-POINT release instructions, but it also left behind an
instruction in-between ("...if you didn't do it earlier...") which it
should have deleted, leaving the document looking like two version bumps
are required for a monthly blead release.

[perl #114018] Let eval close over stale vars in active sub
See also commit
cae5dbbe30.
These two lines should never produce different values:
print $x, "\n";
print eval '$x', "\n";
But they were producing different values if $x happened to have the
tale flag set. Even if my in false conditional is not supported (this
was the cause of the bug report), it should still work; and it is
not the only way to get a stale lexical in an active sub (just the
easiest way).
As long as the sub containing the eval is active, the eval should be
able to see the same variables, stale or not.
However, this does get a bit tricky in cases like this, which legiti-
mately warn (from t/lib/warnings/pad):
{
my $x = 1;
$y = \$x; # force abandonment rather than clear-in-place at scope exit
sub f2 { eval '$x' }
}
f2();
In this case the f2 sub does not explicitly close over the $x, so by
the time the eval is reached the ‘right’ $x is gone.
It is only in those cases where the sub containing the eval has
the stale variable in its own pad that we can safely ignore the
stale flag.

B::Concise: Document formats
Father Chrysostomos [Wed, 8 Aug 2012 07:36:57 +0000 (00:36 -0700)]
Don’t let format arguments ‘leak out’ of formline
When parsing formats, the lexer invents tokens to feed to the parser.
So when the lexer dissects this:
format =
@<<<< @>>>>
$foo, $bar, $baz
.
The parser actually sees this (the parser knows that = . is like { }):
format =
; formline "@<<<< @>>>>\n", $foo, $bar, $baz;
.
The lexer makes no effort to make sure that the argument line is con-
tained within formline’s arguments. To make
{ do_stuff; $foo, bar }
work, the lexer supplies a ‘do’ before the block, if it is
inside a format.
This means that
$a, $b; $c, $d
feeds ($a, $b) to formline, wheras
{ $a, $b; $c, $d }
feeds ($c, $d) to formline. It also has various other
strange effects:
This script prints "# 0" as I would expect:
print "# ";
format =
@
(0 and die)
.
write
This one, locking parentheses, dies because ‘and’ has low precedence:
print "# ";
format =
@
0 and die
.
write
This does not work:
my $day = "Wed";
format =
@<<<<<<<<<<
({qw[ Sun 0 Mon 1 Tue 2 Wed 3 Thu 4 Fri 5 Sat 6 ]}->{$day})
.
write
You have to do this:
my $day = "Wed";
format =
@<<<<<<<<<<
({my %d = qw[ Sun 0 Mon 1 Tue 2 Wed 3 Thu 4 Fri 5 Sat 6 ]; \%d}->{$day})
.
write
which is very strange and shouldn’t even be valid syntax.
This does not work, because ‘no’ is not allowed in an expression:
use strict;
$::foo = "bar"
format =
@<<<<<<<<<<<
no strict; $foo
.
write;
Putting a block around it makes it work. Putting a semicolon before
‘no’ stop it from being a syntax error, but it silently does the
wrong thing.
I thought I could fix all these by putting an implicit do { ... }
around the argument line and removing the special-casing for an open-
ing brace, allowing anonymous hashrefs to work in formats, such
that this:
format =
@<<<< @>>>>
$foo, $bar, $baz
.
would turn into this:
format =
; formline "@<<<< @>>>>\n", do { $foo, $bar, $baz; };
.
But that will lead to madness like this ‘working’:
format =
@
}+do{
.
It would also stop lexicals declared in one format line from being
visible in another.
So instead this commit starts being honest with the parser. We still
have some ‘invented’ tokens, to indicate the start and end of a format
line, but now it is the parser itself that understands a sequence of
format lines, instead of being fed generated code.
So the example above is now presented to the parser like this:
format = ; FORMRBRACK
"@<<<< @>>>>\n" FORMLBRACK $foo, $bar, $baz ; FORMRBRACK
; .
Note about the semicolons: The parser expects to see a semicolon at
the end of each statement. So the lexer has to supply one before
FORMRBRACK. The final dot goes through the same code that handles
closing braces, which generates a semicolon for the same reason. It’s
easier to make the parser expect a semicolon before the final dot than
to change the } code in the lexer. We use the } code for . because it
handles the internal variables that keep track of how many nested lev-
els there, what kind, etc.
The extra ;FORMRBRACK after the = is there also to keep the lexer sim-
ple (ahem). When a newline is encountered during ‘normal’ (as opposed
to format picture) parsing inside a format, that’s when the semicolon
and FORMRBRACK are emitted. (There was already a semicolon there
before this commit. I have just added FORMRBRACK in the same spot.)
