Changes for version 1.007

  • Dedicated to another cool user, who use this module and additionally suggest enhancements (and even send me the patch implementing them !)
  • 'dump' has new features : _ It can have multiple args. _ The first arg can be an initial description ( #!dump("Some text ", $foo, $bar)! ) _ It shows the variables names _ It can uses Data::Dumper (to prevent a memory problem with circular references) it's configurable via a DUMPER => 1 (otherwise the old "inhouse" dump will still be used by default) WARNING : The dump output has changed. (Tell me if you need the old output back) The "inhouse" 'dump' output is sligtly different from the Data::Dumper one. (mainly beccause I sort the hash keys to ensure consistency accross different platform...) Depending on the feedback I'll get, I'll modify this feature which is far from being yet satisfying to me.
  • 'carp' and 'croak' are also enhanced to display more info.
  • 'watch' can now be used on already existing variable.
  • So once again big thanks to you Gerald.
  • I also tried to improve my testing-fu, so few test files were also added/rewritten/shortenned...
