Why is "!!" considered bad form in Perl? [updated for 2024] submitted by /u/EvanCarroll
[link] [comments]


Filed under "Things that one can do, but why?" , here is the repo of using Perl to learn assembly, or rather use Perl to avoid

  1. having a C driver program
  2. make files
  3. multiple files (Inline::ASM allows one to keep Perl and Assembly in the same file

Bonus :

  1. it is insane how efficient some of the list utilities at List::Util are !
  2. Seems Github uses file extensions to count lines of code in a language (the repo is considered all Perl

Anybody wants to add a Perl implementation to this?

(I'm currently on a train and have to change soon, but if nobody implements I might give it a try later)

The portions of B::Generate associated with PADOP construction use static variables, and thus are not thread safe.

This release imports that section of Generate.xs into sealed.xs and removes the static variable dependencies.

I am hopeful someone has done this before as I'm stuck... I have a 3TB disk image file and I am trying to find all the different email addresses that I've used over the past 22 years.

I can use hex editor tools to find them but it takes days to look at the data and pick out even a handful of matches.

I use Perl regularly but I normally scan text files and do non binary file actions. That's easy since I can do a line by line search. But binary seems different.

If I want to search for zeropoint@ (no domain because I've used dozens of ISPs over the years and that's why I am trying to figure this out.) inside the entire 3TB file, what's the best way to do that? I can dump the results to a file and then clean it up but the search part has me stuck

Thank you

Mo utilities for email.

Changes for 0.02 - 2024-04-26T23:02:53+02:00

  • Add tests for error parameters.
  • Rewrite the tests so that the functional tests are first and then the errors.







Fetch actual raw streamable URLs from various radio-station, video & podcast websites.

Changes for 2.30 - 2024-04-25

  • StreamFinder::Castbox - Refactor to scrape episode data from the podcast page as now Castbox episode pages are no longer scrapable (now dynamically generated by javascript), but for now, all required episode data is embedded in the corresponding podcast page (for now). Also now append "lyrics" (transcript) to the "description" field (for Fauxdacious, etc.) for Castbox pages that provide this in a "lyrics" (.lrc) link!
  • StreamFinder::Google - REMOVED since Google has officially closed down it's podcast service.
  • StreamFinder::Podchaser - Fix failure to fetch episode data for the first episode (when a podcast page given) and failure to fetch all due to minor changes in their site.
  • StreamFinder::Spreaker - Refactor since Spreaker has now javascripted and cookied up their pages, but we're still able to scrape it's podcast pages for podcast metadata, required playlist data and 1st episode ID, and they provide a separate api site for fetching all episode data when given the episode-ID.
  • StreamFinder::Subsplash - Fix extraction of the artist & album fields due to minor changes in their site. Also add missing "Url" (first stream) field (not required for fetching streams).

  • trying to make it appear again on CPAN


Hi! Asking for a wisdom here...

We have a module that modifies signal handler $SIG{__DIE__} to log information and to die afterwards. Hundreds of scripts relied on this module which worked fine in perl 5.10.1.

Recently we had the opportunity to install several Perl versions but unfortunately a large number of scripts that used to work with Perl 5.10.1 now behave differently:

  • Failed in 5.14.4: /home/dev/perl-5.14.4/bin/perl -wc test.pl RECEIVED SIGNAL - S_IFFIFO is not a valid Fcntl macro at /home/dev/perl-5.14.4/lib/5.14.4/File/stat.pm line 41
  • Worked without changes in 5.26.3: /home/dev/perl-5.26.3/bin/perl -wc test.pl test.pl syntax OK
  • Worked without changes in 5.38.2: /home/dev/perl-5.38.2/bin/perl -wc test.pl test.pl syntax OK

Many of the scripts can only be updated to 5.14.4 due to the huge jumps between 5.10 and 3.58; But we are stuck on that failures.

Was there an internal Perl change in 5.14 which cause the failures but works on other recent versions without any update on the scripts?

Cheerio!
