BACKWARDS-INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE
- p()'s return value now defaults to 'pass'. Please see
https://github.com/garu/Data-Printer/issues/16 for the
full discussion. THIS WILL BREAK CODE RELYING ON p() TO
RETURN A STRING. To fix your code, please set 'return_value'
to 'dump' explicitly, or use the experimental np() function.
NEW HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE:
- np(), a version of p() that always returns the string instead
of printing it.
NEW FEATURES:
- Add 'escape_chars' to allow \x{...} printing for chars
(patch by Mark Fowler)
- Class::Date support in the DateTime filter (Ivan Bessarabov)
BUG FIXES:
- fixed crash in esoteric classes (github issue #41, thanks
Ivan Bessarabov for reporting)
- removed support for Digest::Haval256, as it can't really be
observed without damaging the original data. If future versions
provide a clone() function, it can be added again.
- Being extra loud when rc files fail to load (RT#89203, thanks
Caleb Cushing for reporting).
- Prevents PERL5OPT from interfering with deparse tests (github
issue #55, thanks David Precious for reporting)
OTHER:
- more tests
- new external filter indexed: PDL
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
Data::Printer is a Perl module to pretty-print Perl data structures
and objects in full color. It is meant to display variables on
screen, properly formatted to be inspected by a human.
Data::Printer is highly customizable, from indentation size to
depth level. You can even rename the exported p() function!
Data::Printer also lets you create filters to help debugging
your objects easily.
