CHANGES THAT BREAK BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY:
- linear_isa option is now set to 'auto' by default (see below)
NEW FEATURES:
- linear_isa can now be set to 'auto', in which case
it will show the @ISA only if the object has more than
one parent. Other values are 0 (never show) and 1 (always show)
- new "Digest" filter bundle, for MD5, SHA and other Digest objects!
- separate colours for classes and methods (feature request
by Ivan Bessarabov)
- environment variable DATAPRINTERRC overrides .dataprinter
and lets you pick different RCs at will (Stephen Thirlwall)
- new option 'separator' lets you pick a custom separator
for array/hash elements, including none (''). Default is ','.
- new option 'end_separator' can be set to 1 to show the last
item of an array or hash with a separator (Ivan Bessarabov)
- DateTime filter bundle now also handles DateTime::TimeZone
objects (RT#77755)
BUG FIXES:
- RC file now works under taint mode, with restrictions
(feature request by Rob Hoelz)
- class_method call now includes properties hashref (Joel Berger)
OTHER:
- Replacement of dependencies to permit pure perl operation:
Class::MOP is replaced with mro and Package::Stash
Clone is replaced with Clone::PP
Hash::FieldHash is replaced with Hash::Util::FieldHash
Note that if <5.10 is detected, Data::Printer also requires:
MRO::Compat to provide mro
Hash::Util::FieldHash::Compat to provide Hash::Util::FieldHash
As a result, Data::Printer should now be fatpackable (cpan:MSTROUT)
- new /examples dir, with a sample file to let you easily try
different color schemes (Yanick Champoux)
- pod coverage tests (developer only)
