Hi all, just a reminder that the next release is in less that 2 weeks.
I would appreciate it if any branch merges or major fixes are handled in the
next week, certainly before Saturday 12th, when we can have a nice bugfest
to sort out any remaining bugs.
Branch tt1988_pmcemitter is ready to merge. The purpose of this branch
was to deal with the fact that we have two identically named packages --
Parrot::Pmc2c::PMC -- in two differently named files --
lib/Parrot/Pmc2c/PMC.pm and lib/Parrot/Pmc2c/PMCEmitter.pm. I
consolidated the two packages and, much to my delight, everything Just
Worked.
But, while I was poking around in the lib/Parrot/Pmc2c/* tree, I came
across two Perl modules with very low test coverage. Grepping the
repository revealed that these modules had been sitting unused in our
distro for at least 3-1/2 years. Out they went. There were a number of
unused subroutines and methods in other Perl modules in this tree; most
of those got the hook as well.
I have successfully tested this code through make fulltest on Linux/i386
and through make test on Darwin/PPC. AFAICT from grepping Rakudo code,
Rakudo makes no calls to any of the deleted code.
mikehh: Okay to merge?
