Revision history for Perl extension Devel::FindRef
TODO: unwrap the save stack to find mortalised scalars (too version dependent).
TODO: hash keys containing \x00 do not display properly.
TODO: get the stack of non-running coroutines?
1.44 Tue Jun 3 20:40:13 CEST 2014
- port to 5.20 (analyzed by Dave Mitchell).
1.43 Fri May 16 09:43:01 CEST 2014
- port to 5.18.
- hopefully better treat anon subs that have been un-anonized
without adjusting the pad by Sub::Name (I forgot who sent
the testcase).
- fix ref2ptr/ptr2ref documentation.
1.422 Sun Aug 30 16:33:24 CEST 2009
- more of the same changes as in 1.422.
- rely on common::sense.
1.421 Fri Aug 28 22:25:57 CEST 2009
- tweaked lexical messages a bit (the HASH "is the lexical %var",
not "is in the lexical %var".
1.42 Wed Jul 1 10:24:42 CEST 2009
- allow possible anonymous gv's without crashing in 5.10
(untested).
1.41 Fri Jun 26 16:48:49 CEST 2009
- special-case immortal values (\undef etc.)
- fix a bug causing some GV references to be dropped.
- find and output lvalue target references.
- escape hash keys on output.
- avoid a crash when passing in a non-reference.
1.4 Mon Dec 1 14:43:35 CET 2008
- show refcount for each scalar.
- indicate that scalars are mortalised (but not where).
- flatten the results slightly.
1.31 Sun Jul 20 18:38:17 CEST 2008
- correctly identify the main program and function call
argument vectors (patch by Paul LeoNerd Evans).
- use ref2ptr instead of +0 to correctly get the address
of overloaded variables (reported by Paul LeoNerd Evans).
- use UV in ptr2ref, as perl seems to do the same internally.
1.3 Sat Jul 12 00:17:03 CEST 2008
- ignore the new "our" PVMG sv's from perl 5.10.
- apply a lot of fixes by Chris Heath,
handling constant functions and WEAKOUTSIDE better.
- avoid following circular reference chains.
- add some visual clues to the output string.
- look into anonymous closures to see where they were cloned.
- introduce PERL_DEVEL_FINDREF_DEPTH env variable.
1.2 Sat Apr 26 05:14:58 CEST 2008
- apply lots of fixes by Chris Heath.
- redo example in manpage, it's complete now.
1.1 Sat Dec 29 22:04:14 CET 2007
- ignore weak references.
- weaken internal references, to avoid displaying
them and drowning important output.
- properly find magical references.
1.0 Wed Nov 28 13:19:45 CET 2007
- correctly restore RMAGICAL flag (Ruslan Zakirov).
0.2 Wed Feb 7 22:31:58 CET 2007
