* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-unwind-to-safe): Replace
(and extend) inline comment by a docstring. Handle edge cases when
inserting text with elisp (related to Bug#28962).
(cperl-process-here-doc): Add syntax-type `here-doc-start'.
(cperl-find-pods-heres): Make sure that the results of this
function are immediately visible.
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el (cperl-test-bug-14343):
Add test cases for "empty" here-documents and inserting at the
edges of a here-document.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-mode): Use
`cperl-font-lock-syntactic-face-function'.
(cperl-commentify): Add a docstring, eliminate unused formal
parameter `noface'.
(cperl-is-here-doc-p): New function to detect whether "<<" starts
a here-document, factored out from `cperl-find-pods-heres'.
(cperl-here-doc-functions): New variable: List of functions which
allow here-documents as parameters, for use in
`cperl-is-here-doc-p'.
(cperl-process-here-doc): New function, factored out from
`cperl-find-pods-heres'. Fixed to keep correct fontification
after non-interactive (elisp) changes (Bug#14343, Bug#28962).
(cperl-find-pods-heres): Extend the doc-string to describe all
parameters. Don't remove text properties in recursive calls on
the same line. Call `cperl-process-here-doc' when appropriate.
(cperl-font-lock-syntactic-face-function): New function to
highlight c-style comments as here-documents (adapted from
perl-mode.el).
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el
(cperl-test-identify-heredoc): New test for the new function
`cperl-is-here-doc-p'.
(cperl-test-identify-no-heredoc): New test for the new function
`cperl-is-here-doc-p', testing constructs which start with "<<"
but are no here-documents.
(cperl-test-here-doc-missing-end): New test to verify correct
detection of a missing here-document delimiter.
(cperl-test-bug-14343): New test to verify that inserting text
into a here-document with elisp does not break fontification.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-find-pods-heres): Delete
?? from the allowed bare regexp delimiters.
(cperl-short-docs): Delete ?...? from the documentation.
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el (cperl-bug-47598):
Add tests for good, bad, and ambiguous use of ? as regex
delimiter (bug#47598).
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-electric-else): Don't expand
scalar variables like '$continue' as keywords. (Bug#47902)
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el
(cperl-test-hyperactive-electric-else): Verify that keywords are
expanded but variable names aren't.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-find-pods-heres): Avoid
treating underscores as word-terminators.
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el
(cperl-test-bug-47112): Test case for that bug (bug#47112).
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl--package-regexp):
Avoid double repetition; cperl--ws-or-comment-regexp is already
repeated with 1+.
* test/lisp/textmodes/dns-mode-tests.el
(dns-mode-tests-dns-mode-soa-increment-serial): Escape literal '$'.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-regexp): Modify test to not
trigger a linting warning while retaining its testing power.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el
(cperl-imenu-addback): Customization variable deleted. This
variable has been declared obsolete in 1998.
(cperl--basic-identifier-regexp) and many other variables:
defining regular expressions for basic Perl constructs.
(cperl-imenu--create-perl-index): This function has been
completely rewritten, keeping only some parts of the output
formatting. It now recognizes a lot more package and
subroutine declarations which came since Perl 5.14: Packages
with a version and/or a block attached, lexical subroutines,
declarations with a newline between the keyword "package" and
the package name, and several more. This version also
correctly separates subroutine names from attributes, does no
longer support "unnamed" packages (which don't exist in Perl),
and doesn't fall for false positives like stuff that looks
like a declaration in a multiline string.
(cperl-tags-hier-init): Eliminate call to
`cperl-imenu-addback` (which actually was commented out in
1997)
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el
(cperl-test--validate-regexp) and six other new tests for the
new regular expressions and the index creation.
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-resources/grammar.pl: New
file showcasing different syntax variations for package and
sub declarations (bug#46574).
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el: Comment out mysterious code referring
to some unknown variable 'edit-var-mode-alist'. No one seems to know
what it is used for, so comment it out and see if anyone complains
before Emacs 28.1 or 28.2.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-tips, cperl-problems)
(cperl-praise, cperl-speed, cperl-mode): Doc fixes; remove references
to very old versions of Emacs and other "Emaxen".
(cperl-problems-old-emaxen): Make obsolete and remove information on
Emacs 20.3 and older.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-init-faces): Add missing
identifiers found by static analysis of recent change.
Thanks to Mattias Engdegård <mattiase@acm.org>.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-init-faces): %array[0, 1]
should use the array face, not the hash one (bug#45373).
Copyright-paperwork-exempt: yes
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-find-pods-heres): Detect
the "<<>>" operator (Bug#42455).
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el
(cperl-test-bug-45255): Verify that <<>> does not start a
HERE-doc.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-find-pods-heres):
Eliminate conditionals which always evaluate to true if
font-lock is preloaded (since Emacs 22.1). (Bug#45183)
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-tags-file-name): New variable.
(cperl-write-tags): Use above new variable instead of hardcoding
filename "TAGS". (Bug#8802)
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-find-pods-heres): Add
"return" to the keywords which start a regex.
* lisp/progmodes/perl-mode.el (defconst): Add "return" to
'perl--syntax-exp-intro-keywords' (Bug#26850).
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el (cperl-test-bug-28650):
New test (bug#26850).
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-style-alist): Add
cperl-close-paren-offset to the settings for PBP style.
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el (cperl-bug19709):
New test to verify correct indentation of closing parentheses (Bug#19709).
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-resources/cperl-bug-19709.pl:
New test case with code from the bug report.
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-resources/cperl-indent-styles.pl:
Add a new test clause for cperl-close-paren-offset.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-mode): Add a fix
which is only required for Emacs versions older than 27.
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el (cperl-bug30393):
Add a test to verify correct indentation (bug#30393).
Don't call `syntax-propertize` from within narrowing
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-forward-re): Revert last patch,
since it is now redundant.
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el (cperl-bug37127):
Remove unused var; fix test so it really catches the previous bug;
tweak the code to use mode-agnostic commands so it also works in `perl-mode`.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-forward-re): Suppress an
error message about "End of string/RE not found" when we are
at the end of a narrowed buffer where the end of a RE is
temporarily unavailable (Bug#37127).
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el (cperl-bug37127):
Add a test to verify that the message is suppressed when
inappropriate, but appears when the RE *is* incomplete.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el: Delete a comment which explains a
bug which has been fixed a long time ago (bug#44073).
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el
(cperl-mode-fontify-punct-vars): Add regression tests to verify
that fontification of punctuation variables doesn't start strings.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl--time-convert): New
compatibility helper for time-convert (available in Emacs
27.1)
(cperl--format-prompt): New compatibility helper for
format-prompt (available in Emacs 28)
(cperl-info-on-command): use cperl--format-prompt
(cperl-perldoc): use cperl--format-prompt
(cperl-time-fontification): use cperl--time-convert (bug#43652)
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-force-face): This
macro's single effect is now inlined, and the macro is gone.
(cperl-problems): The reference to choose-color.el, which
is no longer available for download, is deleted.
(no function): A list of unnecessary empty variable
definitions is gone. They were needed for Emacs v19 and
below.
(cperl-init-faces-weak): This function does no longer do
anything and is therefore deleted.
(cperl-init-faces): Some bodies of conditional code is deleted
because as of today the conditions evaluate to constants. The
face cperl-nonoverridable-face is no longer available as
variable and needs to be doubly-quoted in one place (bug#43622).
