| Announce: Rakudo Perl 6 compiler development release #60 ("Sonoma") | ||
|
|
||
| On behalf of the Rakudo development team, I'm proud to announce the | ||
| January 2013 release of Rakudo Perl #60 "Sonoma". Rakudo is an | ||
| implementation of Perl 6 on the Parrot Virtual Machine (see | ||
| <http://www.parrot.org>). The tarball for this release | ||
| is available from <http://rakudo.org/downloads/rakudo/>. | ||
|
|
||
| Please note: This announcement is not for the Rakudo Star | ||
| distribution[*] -- it's announcing a new release of the compiler only. | ||
| For the latest Rakudo Star release, see | ||
| <http://rakudo.org/downloads/star/>. | ||
|
|
||
| The Rakudo Perl compiler follows a monthly release cycle, with each release | ||
| named after a Perl Mongers group. The January 2013 release is code-named | ||
| after Sonoma.pm, home of Geoff Broadwell (japhb), whose contributions to | ||
| Rakudo and the Perl 6 ecosystem during 2012/2013 have been significant. | ||
|
|
||
| Some of the changes in this release are outlined below: | ||
|
|
||
| + sink context; for-loops are now lazy by default | ||
| + first mentioning a variable from outer scope and then redeclaring it | ||
| in the same scope (my $a; { $a; my $a }) is now an error. | ||
| + the long-deprecated "SAFE" setting has been removed | ||
| + 'require' now works with indirect module names | ||
| + restored socket read semantics to returning the requested number of bytes | ||
| + $obj.Some::Role::meth() now passes the correct $obj | ||
| + try/CATCH now returns Nil when the CATCH is triggered, rather than the | ||
| exception; this brings it in line with try without a CATCH | ||
| + whatever-star cases of splice now implemented | ||
| + sequences with Junction endpoints now work | ||
| + corrected precedence of various set operators | ||
| + fixed binding of non-Any things into hashes and arrays | ||
| + can now import multis with the same name from different modules, | ||
| provided all dispatchers are onlystar | ||
|
|
||
| This is only a small subset of the changes in this release. For a more | ||
| detailed list, see "docs/ChangeLog". | ||
|
|
||
| The development team thanks all of our contributors and sponsors for | ||
| making Rakudo Perl possible, as well as those people who worked on | ||
| Parrot, the Perl 6 test suite and the specification. | ||
|
|
||
| The following people contributed to this release: | ||
|
|
||
| Jonathan Worthington, Moritz Lenz, Carl Masak, Tobias Leich, Shrivatsan | ||
| Sampathkumar | ||
|
|
||
| If you would like to contribute, see <http://rakudo.org/how-to-help>, | ||
| ask on the perl6-compiler@perl.org mailing list, or ask on IRC #perl6 | ||
| on freenode. | ||
|
|
||
| The next release of Rakudo (#61), is scheduled for February 21, 2013. | ||
| A list of the other planned release dates and code names for future releases | ||
| is available in the "docs/release_guide.pod" file. In general, Rakudo development | ||
| releases are scheduled to occur soon after each Parrot monthly release. | ||
| Parrot releases the third Tuesday of each month. | ||
|
|
||
| On behalf of the development team, I encourage you to try the new release, | ||
| to live life to its fullest, to cherish each moment, and to have fun. | ||
| (And, have a good laugh at conspiracy theorists for their doomed end-of-world predictions!) | ||
|
|
||
| [*] What's the difference between the Rakudo compiler and the Rakudo | ||
| Star distribution? | ||
|
|
||
| The Rakudo compiler is a compiler for the Perl 6 language. | ||
| Nothing else. | ||
|
|
||
| The Rakudo Star distribution is the Rakudo compiler plus a selection | ||
| of useful Perl 6 modules, the most recent incarnation of the "Using | ||
| Perl 6" book, and other software that can be used with the Rakudo | ||
| compiler to enhance its utility. Rakudo Star is meant for early | ||
| adopters who wish to explore what's possible with Rakudo Perl 6 and | ||
| provide feedback on what works, what doesn't, and what else they | ||
| would like to see included in the distribution. |
