1 root 1.2 Revision history for perl pragma common::sense.
2    
3 root 1.23 3.72 Wed Jul 31 19:44:18 CEST 2013
4     - install paths were wrong for current MakeMaker (reported
5     by various people).
6    
7 root 1.22 3.71 Wed Jul 31 02:34:48 CEST 2013
8     - CPAN failed to parse the version number in 3.7, try to work
9     around.
10    
11 root 1.21 3.7 Wed Jul 31 01:26:50 CEST 2013
12     - move pod to separate file, to further improve loading times.
13     - make it arch-specific, adding a test that warns when an old
14     version is still installed.
15     - due to a logic glitch, warnings were not enabled at all on 5.16.
16 root 1.20
17     3.6 Sun Jun 17 14:24:53 CEST 2012
18 root 1.19 - work around more 5.16 breakage - $^H doesn't work as nicely as
19     p5p make you to believe.
20     - add features: unicode_strings current_sub fc evalbytes.
21     - disable features: array_base.
22    
23 root 1.18 3.5 Wed Mar 7 20:50:48 CET 2012
24     - localise $^W, as this causes warnings with 5.16 when some lost
25     soul uses -w. common::sense doesn't support $^W, but tries to
26     shield module authors and programs from its ill effects. If you
27     enable $^W, then you normally get to keep the pieces because you
28     change semantics of other people's code.
29    
30 root 1.17 3.4 Fri Jan 14 07:17:16 CET 2011
31     - remove "regexp" category. this is rather painful as it's a large
32     class, but unfortunately, somebody thought emitting a warning when you
33     match more than 32kb of text is in some way useful, which spoils the whole
34     category.
35     - use META.json instead of META.yml - apparently YAML parsers don't actually
36     exist.
37    
38 root 1.16 3.3 Fri Jul 2 22:40:14 CEST 2010
39     - removed "exiting" category - this is too useful to create new
40     control statements, and fails utterly with eval, as eval will
41     catch the (fatal) warning itself. Kind of hurts, but this is
42     just another warning category which is too broad and has to be
43     disabled fully because of a minority of issues.
44    
45 root 1.15 3.2 Fri Apr 16 01:46:02 CEST 2010
46     - removed "substr" warning - while it overall is a good category,
47     "substr '', 2" is entirely sensible.
48    
49 root 1.14 3.1 Sat Apr 3 04:56:36 CEST 2010
50     - removed "parenthesis" warning:
51     sysread $fh, my $buf, -s $fh; # ok
52     sysread $fh, my $buf, $size; # warning
53     Made no sense to me, especially as $size is in scope.
54 root 1.13 - no longer hardcode warning/struct bits, calculate them at
55     installation time, for when I will no longer be alive etc.
56 root 1.12 - tweaked documentation.
57    
58 root 1.11 3.0 Tue Dec 15 03:24:28 CET 2009
59     - enable "use utf8" effect by default.
60     - removed "utf8" warning category. while this contains useful security
61     stuff, it also makes implementing security stuff almost impossible,
62     as it completely mangles perls internal utf8 encoding with actual
63     utf-8 encoding, and confuses "unicode", "string codepoints" and
64     "utf-8" so much that it becoems practically unusable.
65    
66 root 1.10 2.03 Wed Dec 2 18:38:53 CET 2009
67     - removed "unopened" warning category, as this breaks "stat _", which
68     seems to be a bug in all perl versions (see perlbug #71002).
69     - some doc updates.
70    
71 root 1.9 2.02 Wed Nov 4 12:04:08 CET 2009
72     - no functional changes.
73     - add META.yml clarification to the faq, tune the docs a bit
74     and add a "much reduced typing" section.
75     - unfortunately, the tone of the manpage has tightened and is
76     more serious in many parts now. We consider this a bug that we
77     plan to fix before 2100.
78    
79 root 1.8 2.01 Mon Oct 5 17:01:48 CEST 2009
80     - add a FAQ section.
81     - use a more future-proof way to set the warning mask.
82    
83 root 1.7 2.0 Tue Sep 1 20:28:25 CEST 2009
84     - codename "fatality", now with big doses of... fatality.
85 root 1.6 - enabled an enourmous number of warnings and made them FATAL,
86     as warned about in earlier releases. Of course we carefully
87     tested the new warnings against our modules, as mentioned
88     in the manpage, too.
89 root 1.5
90 root 1.4 1.0 Sat Aug 22 22:08:50 CEST 2009
91     - no functional changes.
92     - really, the first version of common sense!
93     - slightly improved documentation.
94     - forgot to include license.
95    
96 root 1.3 0.04 Sun Aug 2 10:29:23 CEST 2009
97     - added "what others..." section.
98     - reinforce attempt at world domination.
99    
100 root 1.2 0.03 Thu Jul 9 20:16:33 CEST 2009
101     - first public release, written on the Piratenstammtisch
102     (http://wiki.piratenpartei.de/Stammtisch_Karlsruhe).
103 root 1.1
104     0.01 Thu Jul 9 17:48:00 CEST 2009
105     - original version; cloned from Convert::Scalar.
