- New upstream release 1.117:
New Policies:
- Variables::ProhibitAugmentedAssignmentInDeclaration reports constructs like
'my $x += 1'
Policy Changes:
- BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitLvalueSubstr: add explicit 'use version'
(CPAN RT#68498)
- CodeLayout::ProhibitHardTabs: add 'pbp' to the default_themes list
(CPAN RT#71093)
- ControlStructures::ProhibitMutatingListFunctions now understands that
tr///r (introduced in 5.13.7) does not change its operand
- ControlStructures::ProhibitMutatingListFunctions now understands that
'//=', '<<=', and '>>=' are assignment operators (CPAN RT#70901)
- ErrorHandling::RequireCheckingReturnValueOfEval now allows things
like grep { eval $_ } (CPAN RT#69489)
- Modules::RequireExplicitPackage now has configuraion option
allow_import_of, to allow the import of specified modules before the
package statement (CPAN RT#72660)
- RegularExpressions::ProhibitEnumeratedClasses no longer thinks
that [A-Za-z_] matches \w. RT #69322.
- RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusedCaptures now skips the first block of
an 'if' or 'elsif' if the regular expression is bound to its operand with
the '!~' operator (CPAN RT#69867)
- RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusedCaptures now looks into lists and blocks
in the replacement portion of the regular expression if /e is asserted
(CPAN RT#72086)
- RegularExpressions::RequireDotMatchAnything,
RegularExpressions::RequireExtendedFormatting and
RegularExpressions::RequireLineBoundaryMatching now honor defaults set with
'use re "/modifiers"' (CPAN RT#72151)
- Subroutines::ProhibitManyArgs now recognizes '+' as a prototype character
- Variables::ProhibitPunctuationVars now recognizes bracketed variables
embedded in interpolated strings (e.g. "${$}"); for the purpose of the
'allow' configuration, these are considered equivalent to the unbracketed
form (CPAN RT#72910)
Other Changes:
- Corrected POD in Perl::Critic::PPI::Utils (CPAN RT#68898)
- Perl::Critic::Violation source() method now returns the line containing
the violation (not the first line) when the statement containing the
violation spans multiple lines
- This release by THALJEF -> update source URL
- Drop stopwords patch, now included upstream
