Changes for version v0.16.0 - 2021-10-11

  • Tuned _set_get_datetime method to only set a default DateTime formatter when none were already set yet
  • Added support method _set_get_uuid to store universal unique identifier with data validation
  • Added method as_json in Module::Generic::Hash to return a json string representation of the hash object
  • Added method _can in Module::Generic to quickly check if a given object has support for a given method
  • Corrected an error check in Module::Generic::SharedMem for method lock()
  • Added methods get_null in Module::Generic::Array to get a Module::Generic::Null object when offset value is undef
  • Added methods second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth
  • Made a slight adjustment in Module::Generic::Null so that the parameter value for 'wants' can be specified in lowercase and updated the documentation
  • Added method _is_ip to check IPv4 and IPv6 syntax, including with CIDR notation in Module::Generic
  • Added method _set_get_ip and _is_uuid to check syntax of UUID
  • Improved Module::Generic::Dynamic
  • Added method as_hash in Module::Generic::Hash to get the hash object as a regular hash reference
  • Improved method _is_class_loaded to more simply check at the %INC rather than rely on external module
  • Improved method _load_class to allow for passing semantics to import and provided an hash reference of options such as package version and caller's package to import the module into.
  • Added missing TO_JSON method in Module::Generic::Exception and Module::Generic::Number
  • Updated _set_get_uri in Module::Generic to initiate a URI object if value is available and not yet an object.
  • Added method aliases lower and upper in Module::Generic::Scalar
  • Added methods pack and unpack in Module::Generic::Scalar
  • Added method pack in Module::Generic::Array
  • Modified Module::Generic::Array new method to accept also a list of elements.
  • Updated the method join in Module::Generic::Array to allow passing additional arguments on top of the current array object: $a->join( ',', $more_data );
  • Updated method replace in Module::Generic::Scalar to return a special Module::Generic::RegexpCapture object
  • Added method dump_hex() which uses Devel::Hexdump if it is installed
  • Updated the method new() in Module::Generic so that a possible error be propagated to its calling object when called from object like my $new = $old->new || die( $old->error );
  • Updated AUTOLOAD to pass $self as first argument if defined
  • Updated _set_get_object_array in Module::Generic to allow any non-blessed value to be passed for object instantiation, instead of hash reference previously.
  • Added the methods intersection, max, min in Module::Generic::Array
  • Added a destruction mechanism in the END block in Module::Generic::File for file or directory set to be auto removed
  • Updated method autoflush in Module::Generic::File to affect the underlying file handle with the value provided. Before, it was just storing the boolean value.
  • Added methods mmap and unmap in Module::Generic::File to use file-based variable that can be shared across processes
