The London Perl and Raku Workshop takes place on 26th Oct 2024. If your company depends on Perl, please consider sponsoring and/or attending.

Changes for version 0.24

  • Support lexical subs when prefixed with `my`
  • Rewritten implementation of named parameters to avoid indirection via a slurpy HV for much performance improvement
  • Support also slurpy AVs along with named parameters
  • Docs updates for clarity about named params
  • BUGFIXES
    • Avoid some more C99 `for()` loop variable declarations and struct initialisers as they upset some C compilers
