River stage zero No dependents

Changes for version 9.001

  • Perlito5 (Perl 5 compiler):
  • command line: -Cast-json
  • fix CPAN distro
  • dev 2015-08-17
  • Perlito5 (Perl 5 compiler):
  • more than 1700 tests
  • Parser:
  • emit the same error messages as 'perl' in more places
  • expanded support for prototypes, regex, v-strings
  • track variable redeclarations and variable scopes
  • add the variable type to AST nodes ("real sigil")
  • "Perlito5X" namespace re-implements CPAN modules that are not possible (or not easy) to support directly in Perlito - such as Data::Dumper. Some modules are inlined in the parser - such as "vars" and "constant".
  • add "<<>>" (Perl 5.22)
  • support for "__LINE__", "__FILE__", and tracking the current line number
  • more pod implementation details, such as "=encoding"
  • fix return value for if/unless modifiers
  • command line - implement "-n", "-p", "-M", "-m", fixed "-I"
  • use a smaller grammar-grammar
  • use a faster calling convention in grammar
  • shorter AST node names
  • Perl5-to-Javascript compiler:
  • file operators (nodejs)
  • create regex variables $1, $2, ...
  • implement regex /e and /ee modifier
  • /usr/bin/node displays the message's text and a backtrace (Shlomi Fish)
  • initial overload implementation
  • flip-flop operator, split, tr
  • Perl5-to-Java compiler:
  • statements: while() and if()
  • containers: hash, array, scalar; autovivification
  • lexical and global variables
  • Java data types: String, long, double, boolean
  • Perl data types: closures, references
  • initial implementation of regexes
  • native Java objects and classes using: package Perl::Package { import => "java.class" }
  • typed lexicals - mapped to imported Java classes: my Perl::Package $java_variable
  • Java::inline
  • Perlito6 (Perl 6 compiler):
  • no significant changes
  • Go backend no longer works
  • Python bootstrap still works
  • instructions in "README-perlito6" need some update (replace "d8" with "node")
  • dev 2014-05-30
  • Perlito5 (Perl 5 compiler):
  • more than 1000 tests!
  • Perl5-to-Perl6 compiler
  • 'perlito5.org' web page moved to github
  • implement 5.20 "prototype" attribute
  • implement 5.20 "hash slices"
  • implement 5.16 "__SUB__"
  • 'use vars', 'use constant'
  • bugfixes:
  • allow special variables in "for" loop
  • implement "\( @a )" in p5-js
  • 'local' now works with subscripted variables
  • implement '$;'
  • many more
  • dev 2012-04-12
  • Perlito5 (Perl 5 compiler):
  • namespace Perlito5X contains versions of CPAN modules adapted for perlito
  • option "-B" is now the default; this executes immediately: perlito5 -e 'say "ok"'
  • option "-MO=Deparse": $ node perlito5.js -Isrc5/lib -MO=Deparse -e ' while (1) { say "works" } '
  • environment variable PERL5LIB=src5/lib now works
  • parser:
  • autoquote hash-keys fix
  • string interpolation in m//
  • accept underlines inside numbers
  • javascript backend:
  • AUTOLOAD
  • tie() - TIEARRAY, STORE, FETCH
  • string increment
  • negative index in array
  • more file and process operations: chdir, unlink, close, exit
  • control functions: next, last, redo, break
  • more functions: rand, printf, sprintf
  • "continue" blocks
  • GLOB references
  • perl5 backend:
  • requires v5.10
  • Perlito6 (Perl 6 compiler):
  • updated method hyper syntax to use >>. instead of .>>
