| 3 | 1.00 Mon Aug 11 12:42:56 1997
|
|---|
| 4 |
|
|---|
| 5 | - original version
|
|---|
| 6 |
|
|---|
| 7 |
|
|---|
| 8 | 1.01 Mon Sep 8 18:09:18 EST 1997
|
|---|
| 9 |
|
|---|
| 10 | - changed "quotemeta" to "quotemeta $_" to work
|
|---|
| 11 | around bug in Perl 5.002 and 5.003
|
|---|
| 12 |
|
|---|
| 13 |
|
|---|
| 14 | 1.10 Tue Sep 30 17:23:23 EST 1997
|
|---|
| 15 |
|
|---|
| 16 | - reworked extract_quotelike to correct handling of some obscure cases
|
|---|
| 17 |
|
|---|
| 18 |
|
|---|
| 19 | 1.21 Sat Oct 4 17:21:54 EST 1997
|
|---|
| 20 |
|
|---|
| 21 | - synchronised with Parse::RecDescent distribution (version number
|
|---|
| 22 | will now reflect that package)
|
|---|
| 23 |
|
|---|
| 24 | 1.23 Fri Oct 17 10:26:38 EST 1997
|
|---|
| 25 |
|
|---|
| 26 | - changed behaviour in scalar and void contexts. Scalar contexts
|
|---|
| 27 | now return only the extracted string. Void contexts now remove
|
|---|
| 28 | the extracted string from the first argument (or $_).
|
|---|
| 29 |
|
|---|
| 30 | 1.24
|
|---|
| 31 |
|
|---|
| 32 | - changed behaviour in scalar contexts. Scalar contexts
|
|---|
| 33 | now return the extracted string _and_ remove it from the
|
|---|
| 34 | first argument (or $_).
|
|---|
| 35 |
|
|---|
| 36 | - changed return values on failure (all contexts return undef
|
|---|
| 37 | for invalid return fields)
|
|---|
| 38 |
|
|---|
| 39 | - fixed some lurking bugs with trailing modifier handling
|
|---|
| 40 |
|
|---|
| 41 | - added :ALL tag to simplify wholesale importing of functions
|
|---|
| 42 |
|
|---|
| 43 | - fixed serious bug with embedded division operators ("/")
|
|---|
| 44 | This now also allows the ?...? form of pattern matching!
|
|---|
| 45 |
|
|---|
| 46 | 1.35 Wed Jun 24 09:53:31 1998
|
|---|
| 47 |
|
|---|
| 48 | - fixed handling of :: quantifiers in extract_variable()
|
|---|
| 49 |
|
|---|
| 50 | - numerous trivial lexical changes to make xemacs happy
|
|---|
| 51 |
|
|---|
| 52 |
|
|---|
| 53 | 1.36 Tue Jul 14 12:26:04 1998
|
|---|
| 54 |
|
|---|
| 55 | - Reinstated POD file missing from previous distribution
|
|---|
| 56 |
|
|---|
| 57 | - Added undocumented fourth parameter to extract_codeblock
|
|---|
| 58 | so as to correctly handle (?) and (s?) modifiers in
|
|---|
| 59 | RecDescent grammars.
|
|---|
| 60 |
|
|---|
| 61 |
|
|---|
| 62 | 1.40 Tue Aug 4 13:54:52 1998
|
|---|
| 63 |
|
|---|
| 64 | - Added (optional) handling of embedded quoted text to
|
|---|
| 65 | extract_delimited (see revised entry in Balanced.pod)
|
|---|
| 66 |
|
|---|
| 67 | - Added extract_tagged which extracts text between arbitrary,
|
|---|
| 68 | optionally nested start and end tags (see new entry in
|
|---|
| 69 | Balanced.pod).
|
|---|
| 70 |
|
|---|
| 71 | - Added delimited_pat which builds a pattern which matches a
|
|---|
| 72 | string delimited by any of the delimiters specified (see new
|
|---|
| 73 | entry in Balanced.pod).
|
|---|
| 74 |
|
|---|
| 75 | - Added test.pl
|
|---|
| 76 |
|
|---|
| 77 |
|
|---|
| 78 | 1.41 Mon Aug 10 14:51:50 1998
|
|---|
| 79 |
|
|---|
| 80 | - Reinstated change to extract_codeblock from 1.36 which were
|
|---|
| 81 | mysteriously lost in 1.40
|
|---|
| 82 |
|
|---|
| 83 |
|
|---|
| 84 | 1.50 Thu Aug 27 09:20:19 1998
|
|---|
| 85 |
|
|---|
| 86 | - Improved the structure of the regex generated by
|
|---|
| 87 | delimited_pat (and used in extract_delimited). It's
|
|---|
| 88 | considerably more complex, but also more robust and
|
|---|
| 89 | much faster in the worst case.
|
|---|
| 90 |
|
|---|
| 91 | - Altered extract_variable to accept whitespace in variables,
|
|---|
| 92 | e.g. '$ a -> {'b'} -> [2]'
|
|---|
| 93 |
|
|---|
| 94 |
|
|---|
| 95 |
|
|---|
| 96 | 1.51 Sat Feb 13 10:31:55 1999
|
|---|
| 97 |
|
|---|
| 98 | - Fixed bugs in prefix matching in extract_variable:
|
|---|
| 99 | * incorrectly used default if '' specified
|
|---|
| 100 | * now handles $#array correctly
|
|---|
| 101 |
|
|---|
| 102 | - Fixed bugs in extract_codeblock:
|
|---|
| 103 | * Now handles !~ properly
|
|---|
| 104 | * Now handles embedded comments better.
|
|---|
| 105 | * Now handles "raw" pattern matches better.
|
|---|
| 106 |
|
|---|
| 107 | - Added support for single strings or qr's as
|
|---|
| 108 | 'reject' and 'ignore' args to extract_tagged()
|
|---|
| 109 |
|
|---|
| 110 | - Added gen_extract_tagged() to "precompile"
|
|---|
| 111 | a specific tag extractor for repeated use
|
|---|
| 112 | (approximately 3 times faster!)
|
|---|
| 113 |
|
|---|
| 114 |
|
|---|
| 115 | 1.52 Thu Mar 4 12:43:38 1999
|
|---|
| 116 |
|
|---|
| 117 | - Added CSV parsing example to documentation of extract_multiple.
|
|---|
| 118 |
|
|---|
| 119 | - Fixed a bug with extract_codeblock in "RecDescent" mode
|
|---|
| 120 | (it would accept "subrule(s?)" and "subrule(?)", but
|
|---|
| 121 | not "subrule(s)"). Thanks, Jan.
|
|---|
| 122 |
|
|---|
| 123 |
|
|---|
| 124 | 1.66 Fri Jul 2 13:29:22 1999
|
|---|
| 125 |
|
|---|
| 126 | - Added ability to use quotelike operators in extract_bracketed
|
|---|
| 127 |
|
|---|
| 128 | - Fixed bug under 5.003 ('foreach my $func' not understood)
|
|---|
| 129 |
|
|---|
| 130 | - Added escape specification as fourth arg to &extract_delimited
|
|---|
| 131 |
|
|---|
| 132 | - Fixed handling of &delimited_pat and &extract_delimited
|
|---|
| 133 | when delimiter is same as escape
|
|---|
| 134 |
|
|---|
| 135 | - Fixed handling of ->, =>, and >> in &extract_code
|
|---|
| 136 | when delimiters are "<>"
|
|---|
| 137 |
|
|---|
| 138 |
|
|---|
| 139 | 1.76 Fri Nov 19 06:51:54 1999
|
|---|
| 140 |
|
|---|
| 141 | - IMPORTANT: Now requires 5.005 or better.
|
|---|
| 142 |
|
|---|
| 143 | - IMPORTANT: Made extract methods sensitive to the pos()
|
|---|
| 144 | value of the text they are parsing. In other words,
|
|---|
| 145 | all extract subroutines now act like patterns of the form
|
|---|
| 146 | /\G.../gc. See documentation for details.
|
|---|
| 147 |
|
|---|
| 148 | - IMPORTANT: Changed semantics of extract_multiple, in line
|
|---|
| 149 | with the above change, and to simplify the semantics to
|
|---|
| 150 | something vaguely predictable. See documentation for details.
|
|---|
| 151 |
|
|---|
| 152 | - Added ability to use qr/../'s and raw strings as extractors
|
|---|
| 153 | in extract_multiple. See documentation.
|
|---|
| 154 |
|
|---|
| 155 | - Added fourth argument to extract_codeblock to allow
|
|---|
| 156 | outermost brackets to be separately specified. See
|
|---|
| 157 | documentation for details.
|
|---|
| 158 |
|
|---|
| 159 | - Reimplemented internals of all extraction subroutines
|
|---|
| 160 | for significant speed-ups (between 100% and 2000%
|
|---|
| 161 | improvement).
|
|---|
| 162 |
|
|---|
| 163 | - Fixed nasty bug in extract_variable and extract_codeblock
|
|---|
| 164 | (they were returning prefix as well in scalar context)
|
|---|
| 165 |
|
|---|
| 166 | - Allowed read-only strings to be used as arguments in
|
|---|
| 167 | scalar contexts.
|
|---|
| 168 |
|
|---|
| 169 | - Renamed delimited_pat to gen-delimited pat (in line with
|
|---|
| 170 | gen_extract_tagged). Old name still works, but is now deprecated.
|
|---|
| 171 |
|
|---|
| 172 | - Tweaked all extraction subs so they correctly handle
|
|---|
| 173 | zero-length prefix matches after another zero-length match.
|
|---|
| 174 |
|
|---|
| 175 |
|
|---|
| 176 | 1.77 Mon Nov 22 06:08:23 1999
|
|---|
| 177 |
|
|---|
| 178 | - Fixed major bug in extract_codeblock (would not
|
|---|
| 179 | terminate if there was trailing whitespace)
|
|---|
| 180 |
|
|---|
| 181 | - Improved /.../ pattern parsing within codeblocks
|
|---|
| 182 |
|
|---|
| 183 |
|
|---|
| 184 | 1.81 Wed Sep 13 11:58:49 2000
|
|---|
| 185 |
|
|---|
| 186 | - Fixed test count in extract_codeblock.t
|
|---|
| 187 |
|
|---|
| 188 | - Fixed improbable bug with trailing ->'s in extract_variable
|
|---|
| 189 |
|
|---|
| 190 | - Fixed (HT|X)ML tag extraction in extract_tagged (thanks, Tim)
|
|---|
| 191 |
|
|---|
| 192 | - Added explanatory note about prefix matching (thanks again, Tim)

|---|
| 193 |
|
|---|
| 194 | - Added handling of globs and sub refs to extract_variable
|
|---|
| 195 |
|
|---|
| 196 | - Pod tweak (thanks Abigail)
|
|---|
| 197 |
|
|---|
| 198 | - Allowed right tags to be run-time evaluated, so
|
|---|
| 199 | extract_tagged($text, '/([a-z]+)', '/end$1') works
|
|---|
| 200 | as expected.
|
|---|
| 201 |
|
|---|
| 202 | - Added optional blessing of matches via extract_multiple
|
|---|
| 203 |
|
|---|
| 204 | - Fixed bug in autogeneration of closing tags in extract_tagged
|
|---|
| 205 | (Thanks, Coke)

|---|
| 206 |
|
|---|
| 207 | - Fixed bug in interaction between extract_multiple and
|
|---|
| 208 | gen_extract_tagged (Thanks Anthony)
|
|---|
| 209 |
|
|---|
| 210 |
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 212 |
|
|---|
| 213 | - Fixed nit in extract_variable.t

| 233 | with embedded newlines (thanks Robin)
|
|---|
| 234 |
|
|---|
| 235 |
|
