If any exist, +they are bugs, and we request that you submit a report.

On Solaris, with a C++ compiler, this check always failed, +since Solaris instead imports \fBmalloc()\fR and \fBfree()\fR from \f(CW\*(C`std::\*(C'\fR with \f(CW\*(C`using\*(C'\fR +for C++ builds. Since the return types of \fBmalloc()\fR and \fBfree()\fR are well defined +by the C standard, skip probing for them. \f(CW\*(C`Configure\*(C'\fR command-line arguments +and hints can still override these type in the unlikely case that is needed. +[GH #20806 <https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/20806>] +.SH Testing +.IX Header "Testing" +Tests were added and changed to reflect the other additions and changes in this +release. +.SH "Selected Bug Fixes" +.IX Header "Selected Bug Fixes" +.IP \(bu 4 +An \fBeval()\fR as the last statement in a regex code block could trigger an +interpreter panic; e.g. +.Sp +.Vb 1 +\& /(?{ ...; eval {....}; })/ +.Ve +.Sp +[GH #19680 <https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/19680>] +.IP \(bu 4 +An \f(CW\*(C`eval EXPR\*(C'\fR referring to a lexical sub defined in grandparent scope no +longer produces an assertion failures. +[GH #19857 <https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/19857>] +.IP \(bu 4 +Writing to a magic variables associated with the selected output handle, \f(CW$^\fR, +\&\f(CW$~\fR, \f(CW$=\fR, \f(CW\*(C`$\-\*(C'\fR and \f(CW$%\fR, no longer crashes perl if the IO object has been +cleared from the selected output handle. +[GH #20733 <https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/20733>] +.SH Acknowledgements +.IX Header "Acknowledgements" +Perl 5.36.1 represents approximately 11 months of development since Perl 5.36.0 +and contains approximately 5,500 lines of changes across 62 files from 24 +authors. +.PP +Excluding auto-generated files, documentation and release tools, there were +approximately 1,600 lines of changes to 23 .pm, .t, .c and .h files. +.PP +Perl continues to flourish into its fourth decade thanks to a vibrant community +of users and developers. The following people are known to have contributed +the improvements that became Perl 5.36.1: +.PP +Andreas König, Bram, Chris 'BinGOs' Williams, Craig A. Berry, Dagfinn Ilmari +Mannsåker, David Mitchell, Elvin Aslanov, Florian Weimer, Graham Knop, Hugo +van der Sanden, Karen Etheridge, Karl Williamson, Leon Timmermans, Matthew +Horsfall, Max Maischein, Neil Bowers, Nicolas R, Renee Baecker, Ricardo Signes, +Richard Leach, Steve Hay, Todd Rinaldo, Tony Cook, Yves Orton. +.PP +The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically generated +from version control history. In particular, it does not include the names of +the (very much appreciated) contributors who reported issues to the Perl bug +tracker. +.PP +Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN modules +included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN community for +helping Perl to flourish. +.PP +For a more complete list of all of Perl's historical contributors, please see +the \fIAUTHORS\fR file in the Perl source distribution. +.SH "Reporting Bugs" +.IX Header "Reporting Bugs" +If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the perl bug database at +<https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues>. There may also be information at +<http://www.perl.org/>, the Perl Home Page. +.PP +If you believe you have an unreported bug, please open an issue at +<https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues>. Be sure to trim your bug down to a +tiny but sufficient test case. +.PP +If the bug you are reporting has security implications which make it +inappropriate to send to a public issue tracker, then see +"SECURITY VULNERABILITY CONTACT INFORMATION" in perlsec for details of how to +report the issue. +.SH "Give Thanks" +.IX Header "Give Thanks" +If you wish to thank the Perl 5 Porters for the work we had done in Perl 5, you +can do so by running the \f(CW\*(C`perlthanks\*(C'\fR program: +.PP +.Vb 1 +\& perlthanks +.Ve +.PP +This will send an email to the Perl 5 Porters list with your show of thanks. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.IX Header "SEE ALSO" +The \fIChanges\fR file for an explanation of how to view exhaustive details on +what changed. +.PP +The \fIINSTALL\fR file for how to build Perl. +.PP +The \fIREADME\fR file for general stuff. +.PP +The \fIArtistic\fR and \fICopying\fR files for copyright information. |
