The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 1.39 - 2012-10-27

  • (ms) Markus Benning reported that logcroak/confess/die stringify their arguments, which gets in the way when throwing data structures as exceptions. Added flag $STRINGIFY_DIE_MESSAGE.
  • (ms) [rt.cpan.org #80086] David Morel pointed out misleading documentation in the Limiter composite appender. Fixed docs and added C<appender_method_on_flush> parameter to support appender flush calls by the limiter.
  • (ms) [rt.cpan.org #79960] Fabrice Gabolde asked for %X{x} to be interpolated as NULL for the database appender if its value is undef. The DBI appender now inits PatternLayout with the undef_column_name parameter set to undef (defaults to "[undef]").
  • (ms) Updated license/copyright/author sections in all files using licensizer and .licensizer.yml.
  • (ms) Skipped log file recreation test on Win32 as it won't remove busy files anyway.
