Changes for version 0.30_01 - 2012-07-02

  • CHANGES THAT BREAK BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY:
    • linear_isa option is now set to 'auto' by default (see below)
  • NEW FEATURES:
    • linear_isa can now be set to 'auto', in which case it will show the @ISA only if the object has more than one parent. Other values are 0 (never show) and 1 (always show)
    • new "Digest" filter bundle, for MD5, SHA and other Digest objects!
    • separate colours for classes and methods (feature request by Ivan Bessarabov)
    • environment variable DATAPRINTERRC overrides .dataprinter and lets you pick different RCs at will (Stephen Thirlwall)
    • new option 'separator' lets you pick a custom separator for array/hash elements, including none (''). Default is ','.
    • new option 'end_separator' can be set to 1 to show the last item of an array or hash with a separator (Ivan Bessarabov)
    • DateTime filter bundle now also handles DateTime::TimeZone objects (RT#77755)
  • BUG FIXES:
    • RC file now works under taint mode, with restrictions (feature request by Rob Hoelz)
    • class_method call now includes properties hashref (Joel Berger)
  • OTHER:
    • Replacement of dependencies to permit pure perl operation: Class::MOP is replaced with mro and Package::Stash Clone is replaced with Clone::PP Hash::FieldHash is replaced with Hash::Util::FieldHash Note that if <5.10 is detected, Data::Printer also requires: MRO::Compat to provide mro Hash::Util::FieldHash::Compat to provide Hash::Util::FieldHash As a result, Data::Printer should now be fatpackable (cpan:MSTROUT)
    • new /examples dir, with a sample file to let you easily try different color schemes (Yanick Champoux)
    • pod coverage tests (developer only)
