Developer release leading up to 1.128.
[Bug Fixes]
- PPI misparsing a module caused an incorrect "Must end with a
recognizable true value." This is fixed by upgrading to PPI
1.224. (GH #696, GH #607)
- A test would fail under the upcoming Perl 5.26 that omits the current
directory from @INC. Thanks, Kent Fredric.
- Fixed an invalid test in the RequireBarewordsIncludes test. Thanks,
Christian Walde. (GH #751)
- If an element contained blank lines then the source "%r" displayed
for a violation was wrong. Thanks, Sawyer X. (GH #702, #734)
[Dependencies]
Perl::Critic now requires PPI 1.224. PPI is the underlying Perl parser
on which Perl::Critic is built, and 1.224 introduces many parsing fixes
such as:
- Fixes for dot-in-@INC.
- Parse left side of => as bareword even if it looks like a keyword or op.
- $::x now works.
- Higher accuracy when deciding whether certain characters are operators or
variable type casts (*&% etc.).
- Subroutine attributes parsed correctly.
[Performance Enhancements]
- Sped up BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitUselessTopic ~7%. Thanks, James
Raspass. (GH #656)
[Documentation]
- Fixed incorrect explanation of capture variables in
ProhibitCaptureWithoutTest. Thanks, Felipe Gasper.
- Fixed incorrect links. Thanks, Glenn Fowler.
- Fixed incorrect example for returning a sorted list. Thanks, @daviding58.
- Fixed invalid POD. Thanks, Jakub Wilk. (GH #735)
- Updated docs on ProhibitYadaOperator. Thanks, Stuart A Johnston. (GH #662)
- Removed all the references to the old mailing list and code repository
at tigris.org. (GH #757)
