mktables performance improvement

The attached patch got the easiest performance improvements to mktables.
Hopefully this is good enough for now.

This involved:

1) Nicholas' patch
2) I stored complete_name instead of recomputing it each time.
3) Used $_[xxx] instead of shift in very heavily used subroutines
4) removed trace accidentally left in.

I also changed the misspelled subroutine name discovered by Craig Berry.
I searched for any other misspellings and didn't find any.

Also removed trailing white space that keeps creeping back in, and now
this doesn't generate pod entries if not outputting a pod file, and
clarified warning message if no mktables.lst is present.

I couldn't figure out a way to conditionally use 'no overloading', as
it is called at compile time.  So I just commented out the old stuff
that will work for 5.8, with a note about using that if you want to

It's fixed by the attached patch.  Since the bug is an inconsistency
in the SV data structure, it can't be sensibly tested from Perl code,
so I'm at a loss for writing a test script.  Hopefully that panic with

There's a bit more to it than that.  The indexing was off-by-one for
*some* places that process a new line, but correct for others, so the
saved source as a whole was mangled rather than simply offset.  Also,
there were some redundant calls to update_debugger_info(), so some lines
got saved twice, in some cases off-by-one for one saving and not for
the other.  The saved source is, therefore, hopelessly broken in 5.11.2.

Attached patch fixes the source saving.  Includes a new test, which works
through all reachable places that source lines get saved.  This should
close RT #70804.

15 years agoAlways add a manifest resource to perl.exe to specify the <trustInfo>
Jan Dubois [Thu, 30 Apr 2009 23:53:20 +0000 (16:53 -0700)]
Always add a manifest resource to perl.exe to specify the <trustInfo>
settings for Windows Vista and later.  Without this setting Windows
will treat perl.exe as a legacy application and apply various
heuristics like redirecting access to protected file system areas
(like the "Program Files" folder) to the users "VirtualStore"
instead of generating a proper "permission denied" error.

For VC8 and VC9 this manifest setting is automatically generated by
the compiler/linker (together with the binding information for their
respective runtime libraries); for all other compilers we need to
embed the manifest resource explicitly in the external resource file.

This change also requests the Microsoft Common-Controls version 6.0
(themed controls introduced in Windows XP) via the dependency list
in the assembly manifest.  For VC8 and VC9 this is specified using the
/manifestdependency linker commandline option instead.

brian d foy [Thu, 19 Nov 2009 23:56:12 +0000 (17:56 -0600)]
* Fixed sort example using =(\d+)

The example wanted to sort a list like qw(=1 =2 =a =3 =d). One
example tried to be clever with array indices and precomputed
an array in @nums. However, it forgot to leave holes for the
elements where it could not extract a run of digits. Once the
indices were misaligned, the sort didn't give the right answer.

I know you can read the patch, but since I fixed whitespace too,
a simple diff gives you a lot of output. The old example had:

    for (@old) {
        push @nums, /=(\d+)/;
        push @caps, uc($_);
    }

The new one keeps the indices aligned by using undef when the
match failed:

    for (@old) {
        push @nums, ( /=(\d+)/ ? $1 : undef );
        push @caps, uc($_);
