| Name: perl-Perl-Tidy | Distribution: openSUSE Leap 16.0 |
| Version: 20240511.0.0 | Vendor: openSUSE |
| Release: lp160.1.1 | Build date: Sat May 11 05:07:59 2024 |
| Group: Unspecified | Build host: reproducible |
| Size: 3924174 | Source RPM: perl-Perl-Tidy-20240511.0.0-lp160.1.1.src.rpm |

| Summary: Indent and reformat perl scripts | |
This module makes the functionality of the perltidy utility available to
perl scripts. Any or all of the input parameters may be omitted, in which
case the @ARGV array will be used to provide input parameters as described
in the perltidy(1) man page.
For example, the perltidy script is basically just this:
use Perl::Tidy;
Perl::Tidy::perltidy();
The call to *perltidy* returns a scalar *$error_flag* which is TRUE if an
error caused premature termination, and FALSE if the process ran to normal
completion. Additional discuss of errors is contained below in the ERROR
HANDLING section.

[#]# 2024 05 11
- The option --valign-signed-numbers, or -vsn is now the default. It
was introduced in the previous release has been found to significantly
improve the overall appearance of columns of signed and unsigned
numbers. See the previous Change Log entry for an example.
This will change the formatting in scripts with columns
of vertically aligned signed and unsigned numbers.
Use -nvsn to turn this option off and avoid this change.
- Previously, a line break was made before a short concatenated terminal
quoted string, such as "\n", if the previous line had a greater
starting indentation. The break is now placed after the short quote.
This keeps code a little more compact. For example:
[#] old rule: break before "\n" here because '$name' has more indentation:
my $html = $this->SUPER::genObject( $query, $bindNode, $field . ":$var",
$name, "remove", "UNCHECKED" )
. "\n";
[#] new rule: break after a short terminal quote like "\n" for compactness;
my $html = $this->SUPER::genObject( $query, $bindNode, $field . ":$var",
$name, "remove", "UNCHECKED" ) . "\n";
- The option --delete-repeated-commas is now the default.
It makes the following checks and changes:
- Repeated commas like ',,' are removed with a warning
- Repeated fat commas like '=> =>' are removed with a warning
- The combination '=>,' produces a warning but is not changed
These warnings are only output if --warning-output, or -w, is set.
Use --nodelete-repeated-commas, or -ndrc, to retain repeated commas.
- The operator ``**=`` now has spaces on both sides by default. Previously,
there was no space on the left. This change makes its spacing the same
as all other assignment operators. The previous behavior can be obtained
with the parameter setting -nwls='**='.
- The option --file-size-order, or -fso is now the default. When
perltidy is given a list of multiple filenames to process, they
are sorted by size and processed in order of increasing size.
This can significantly reduce memory usage by Perl. This
option has always been used in testing, where typically several
jobs each operating on thousands of filenames are running at the
same time and competing for system resources. If this option
is not wanted for some reason, it can be deactivated with -nfso.
- In the option --dump-block-summary, the number of sub arguments indicated
for each sub now includes any leading object variable passed with
an arrow-operator call. Previously the count would have been decreased
by one in this case. This change is needed for compatibility with future
updates.
- Fix issue git #138 involving -xlp (--extended-line-up-parentheses).
When multiple-line quotes and regexes have long secondary lines, these
line lengths could influencing some spacing and indentation, but they
should not have since perltidy has no control over their indentation.
This has been fixed. This will mainly influence code which uses -xlp
and has long multi-line quotes.
- Add option --minimize-continuation-indentation, -mci (see git #137).
This flag allows perltidy to remove continuation indentation in some
special cases where it is not really unnecessary. For a simple example,
the default formatting for the following snippet is:
[#] perltidy -nmci
$self->blurt( "Error: No INPUT definition for type '$type', typekind '"
. $type->xstype
. "' found" );
The second and third lines are one level deep in a container, and
are also statement continuations, so they get indented by the sum
of the -i value and the -ci value. If this flag is set, the
indentation is reduced by -ci spaces, giving
[#] perltidy -mci
$self->blurt( "Error: No INPUT definition for type '$type', typekind '"
. $type->xstype
. "' found" );
This situation is relatively rare except in code which has long
quoted strings and the -nolq flag is also set. This flag is currently
off by default, but it could become the default in a future version.
- Add options --dump-mismatched-args (or -dma) and
- -warn-mismatched-arg (or -wma). These options look
for and report instances where the number of args expected by a
sub appear to differ from the number passed to the sub. The -dump
version writes the results for a single file to standard output
and exits:
perltidy -dma somefile.pl >results.txt
The -warn version formats as normal but reports any issues as warnings in
the error file:
perltidy -wma somefile.pl
The -warn version may be customized with the following additional parameters
if necessary to avoid needless warnings:
- -warn-mismatched-arg-types=s (or -wmat=s),
- -warn-mismatched-arg-exclusion-list=s (or -wmaxl=s), and
- -warn-mismatched-arg-undercount-cutoff=n (or -wmauc=n).
- -warn-mismatched-arg-overcount-cutoff=n (or -wmaoc=n).
These are explained in the manual.
- Add option --valign-wide-equals, or -vwe, for issue git #135.
Setting this parameter causes the following assignment operators
= **= += *= &= <<= &&= -= /= |= >>= ||= //= .= %= ^= x=
to be aligned vertically with the ending = all aligned. For example,
here is the default formatting of a snippet of code:
$str .= SPACE x $total_pad_count;
$str_len += $total_pad_count;
$total_pad_count = 0;
$str .= $rfields->[$j];
$str_len += $rfield_lengths->[$j];
And here is the same code formatted with -vwe:
[#] perltidy -vwe
$str .= SPACE x $total_pad_count;
$str_len += $total_pad_count;
$total_pad_count = 0;
$str .= $rfields->[$j];
$str_len += $rfield_lengths->[$j];
This option currently is off by default to avoid changing existing
formatting.
- Added control --delete-interbracket-arrows, or -dia, to delete optional
hash ref and array ref arrows between brackets as in the following
expression (see git #131)
return $self->{'commandline'}->{'arg_list'}->[0]->[0]->{'hostgroups'};
[#] perltidy -dia gives:
return $self->{'commandline'}{'arg_list'}[0][0]{'hostgroups'};
Added the opposite control --aia-interbracket-arrows, or -aia, to
add arrows. So applied to the previous line the arrows are restored:
[#] perltidy -aia
return $self->{'commandline'}->{'arg_list'}->[0]->[0]->{'hostgroups'};
The manual describes additional controls for adding and deleting
just selected interbracket arrows.

[#]# 2024 02 02
- Added --valign-signed-numbers, or -vsn. This improves the appearance
of columns of numbers by aligning leading algebraic signs. For example:
[#] perltidy -vsn
my $xyz_shield = [
[ -0.060, -0.060, 0. ],
[ 0.060, -0.060, 0. ],
[ 0.060, 0.060, 0. ],
[ -0.060, 0.060, 0. ],
[ -0.0925, -0.0925, 0.092 ],
[ 0.0925, -0.0925, 0.092 ],
[ 0.0925, 0.0925, 0.092 ],
[ -0.0925, 0.0925, 0.092 ],
];
[#] perltidy -nvsn (current DEFAULT)
my $xyz_shield = [
[ -0.060, -0.060, 0. ],
[ 0.060, -0.060, 0. ],
[ 0.060, 0.060, 0. ],
[ -0.060, 0.060, 0. ],
[ -0.0925, -0.0925, 0.092 ],
[ 0.0925, -0.0925, 0.092 ],
[ 0.0925, 0.0925, 0.092 ],
[ -0.0925, 0.0925, 0.092 ],
];
This new option works well but is currently OFF to allow more testing
and fine-tuning. It is expected to be activated in a future release.
- Added --dump-mixed-call-parens (-dmcp ) which will dump a list of
operators which are sometimes followed by parens and sometimes not.
This can be useful for developing a uniform style for selected operators.
Issue git #128. For example
perltidy -dmcp somefile.pl >out.txt
produces lines like this, where the first number is the count of
uses with parens, and the second number is the count without parens.
k:caller:2:1
k:chomp:3:4
k:close:7:4
- Added --want-call-parens=s (-wcp=s) and --nowant-call-parens=s (-nwcp=s)
options which will warn of paren uses which do not match a selected
style. The manual has details. But for example,
perltidy -wcp='&' somefile.pl
will format as normal but warn if any user subs are called without parens.
- Added --dump-unusual-variables (-duv) option to dump a list of
variables with certain properties of interest. For example
perltidy -duv somefile.pl >vars.txt
produces a file with lines which look something like
1778:u: my $input_file
6089:r: my $j: reused - see line 6076
The values on the line which are separated by colons are:
line number - the number of the line of the input file
issue - a single letter indicating the issue, see below
variable name - the name of the variable, preceded by a keyword
note - an optional note referring to another line
The issue is indicated by a letter which may be one of:
r: reused variable name
s: sigil change but reused bareword
p: lexical variable with scope in multiple packages
u: unused variable
This is very useful for locating problem areas and bugs in code.
- Added a related flag --warn-variable-types=string (-wvt=string) option
to warn if certain types of variables are found in a script. The types
are a space-separated string which may include 'r', 's', and 'p' but
not 'u'. For example
perltidy -wvt='r s' somefile.pl
will check for and warn if any variabls of type 'r', or 's' are seen,
but not 'p'. All possible checks may be indicated with a '*' or '1':
perltidy -wvt='*' somefile.pl
The manual has further details.
- All parameters taking integer values are now checked for
out-of-range values before processing starts. When a maximum or
maximum range is exceeded, the new default behavior is to write a
warning message, reset the value to its default setting, and continue.
This default behavior can be changed with the new parameter
- -integer-range-check=n, or -irc=n, as follows:
n=0 skip check completely (for stress-testing perltidy only)
n=1 reset bad values to defaults but do not issue a warning
n=2 reset bad values to defaults and issue a warning [DEFAULT]
n=3 stop immediately if any values are out of bounds
The settings n=0 and n=1 are mainly useful for testing purposes.
- The --dump-block-summary (-dbs) option now includes the number of sub
args in the 'type' column. For example, 'sub(9)' indicates a sub
with 9 args. Subs whose arg count cannot easily be determined are
indicated as 'sub(*)'. The count does not include a leading '$self'
or '$class' arg.
- Added flag --space-signature-paren=n, or -ssp=n (issue git #125).
This flag works the same as the existing flag --space-prototype-paren=n
except that it applies to the space before the opening paren of a sub
signature instead of a sub prototype. Previously, there was no control
over this (a space always occurred). For example, given the following
line:
sub circle( $xc, $yc, $rad );
The following results can now be obtained, according to the value of n:
sub circle( $xc, $yc, $rad ); # n=0 [no space]
sub circle( $xc, $yc, $rad ); # n=1 [default; same as input]
sub circle ( $xc, $yc, $rad ); # n=2 [space]
The spacing in previous versions of perltidy corresponded to n=2 (always
a space). The new default value, n=1, will produce a space if and only
if there was a space in the input text.
- The --dump-block-summary option can report an if-elsif-elsif-.. chain
as a single line item with the notation -dbt='elsif3', for example,
where the '3' is an integer which specifies the minimum number of elsif
blocks required for a chain to be reported. The manual has details.
- Fix problem c269, in which the new -ame parameter could incorrectly
emit an else block when two elsif blocks were separated by a hanging
side comment (a very rare situation).
- When braces are detected to be unbalanced, an attempt is made to
localize the error by comparing the indentation at closing braces
with their actual nesting levels. This can be useful for files which
have previously been formatted by perltidy. To illustrate, a test was
made in which the closing brace at line 30644 was commented out in
a file with a total of over 62000 lines. The new error message is
Final nesting depth of '{'s is 1
The most recent un-matched '{' is on line 6858
...
Table of nesting level differences at closing braces.
This might help localize brace errors if the file was previously formatted.
line: (brace level) - (level expected from old indentation)
30643: 0
30645: 1
Previously, the error file only indicated that the error in this case
was somewhere after line 6858, so the new table is very helpful. Closing
brace indentation is checked because it is unambiguous and can be done
very efficiently.
- The -DEBUG option no longer automatically also writes a .LOG file.
Use --show-options if the .LOG file is needed.
- The run time of this version with all new options in use is no greater
than that of the previous version thanks to optimization work.

- Fix for git #124: remove a syntax error check which could cause
an incorrect error message when List::Gather::gather was used.

[#]# 2023 09 09
- Added new parameters -wme, or --warn-missing-else, and -ame,
or --add-missing else. The parameter -wme tells perltidy to issue
a warning if an if-elsif-... chain does not end in an else block.
The parameter -ame tells perltidy to insert an else block at the
end of such a chain if there is none.
For example, given the following snippet:
if ( $level == 3 ) { $val = $global{'section'} }
elsif ( $level == 2 ) { $val = $global{'chapter'} }
[#] perltidy -ame
if ( $level == 3 ) { $val = $global{'section'} }
elsif ( $level == 2 ) { $val = $global{'chapter'} }
else {
[#]#FIXME - added with perltidy -ame
}
The resulting code should be carefully reviewed, and the ##FIXME comment
should be updated as appropriate. The text of the ##FIXME comment can be
changed with parameter -amec=s, where 's' is the comment to mark the new
else block. The man pages have more details.
- The syntax of the parameter --use-feature=class, or -uf=class, which
new in the previous release, has been changed slightly for clarity.
The default behavior, which occurs if this flag is not entered, is
to automatically try to handle both old and new uses of the keywords
'class', 'method', 'field', and 'ADJUST'.
To force these keywords to only follow the -use feature 'class' syntax,
enter --use-feature=class.
To force perltidy to ignore the -use feature 'class' syntax, enter
- -use-feature=noclass.
- Issue git #122. Added parameter -lrt=n1:n2, or --line-range-tidy=n1:n2
to limit tidy operations to a limited line range. Line numbers start
with 1. This parameter is mainly of interest to editing programs which
drive perltidy. The man pages have details.
- Some fairly rare instances of incorrect spacing have been fixed. The
problem was that the tokenizer being overly conservative in marking
terms as possible filehandles or indirect objects. This causes the space
after the possible filehandle to be frozen to its input value in order not
to introduce an error in case Perl had to guess. The problem was fixed
by having the tokenizer look ahead for operators which can eliminate the
uncertainty. To illustrate, in the following line the term ``$d`` was
previously marked as a possible filehandle, so no space was added after it.
print $d== 1 ? " [ON]\n" : $d ? " [$d]\n" : "\n";
^
In the current version, the next token is seen to be an equality, so
``$d`` is marked as an ordinary identifier and normal spacing rules
can apply:
print $d == 1 ? " [ON]\n" : $d ? " [$d]\n" : "\n";
^
- This version runs 7 to 10 percent faster than the previous release on
large files, depending on options and file type. Much of the gain comes
from streamlined I/O operations.
- This version was stress-tested for many cpu hours with random
input parameters. No failures to converge, internal fault checks,
undefined variable references or other irregularities were seen.

[#]# 2023 07 01
- Issue git #121. Added parameters -xbt, or --extended-block-tightness,
and -xbtl=s, or --extended-block-tightness-list=s, to allow
certain small code blocks to have internal spacing controlled by
- bbt=n rather than -bt=n. The man pages have details.
- Issue git #118. A warning will be issued if a duplicate format-skipping
starting marker is seen within a format-skipping section. The same
applies to duplicate code-skipping starting markers within code-skipping
sections.
- Issue git #116. A new flag --valign-if-unless, -viu, was added to
allow postfix 'unless' terms to align with postfix 'if' terms. The
default remains not to do this.
- Fixed git #115. In the two most recent CPAN releases, when the
Perl::Tidy module was called with the source pointing to a file,
but no destination specified, the output went to the standard
output instead of to a file with extension ``.tdy``, as it should
have. This has been fixed.
- Fixed git #110, add missing documentation for new options
- cpb and -bfvt=n. These work in version 20230309 but the pod
documentation was missing and has been added.
- Fixed an undefined reference message when running with
- -dump-block-summary on a file without any subs or other
selected block types.
- Add parameter -ipc, or --ignore-perlcritic-comments. Perltidy, by
default, will look for side comments beginning with ``## no critic`` and
ignore their lengths when making line break decisions, even if the user
has not set ``-iscl``. The reason is that an unwanted line break can
make these special comments ineffective in controlling ``perlcritic``.
The parameter -ipc can be set if, for some reason, this is not wanted.
- Some minor issues with continuation indentation have been fixed.
Most scripts will remain unchanged. The main change is that block
comments which occur just before a closing brace, bracket or paren
now have an indentation which is independent of the existance of
an optional comma or semicolon. Previously, adding or deleting
an optional trailing comma could cause their indentation to jump.
Also, indentation of comments within ternary statements has been
improved. For additonal details see:
https://github.com/perltidy/perltidy/blob/master/docs/ci_update.md
- This version was stress-tested for many cpu hours with random
input parameters. No failures to converge, internal fault checks,
undefined variable references or other irregularities were seen.

on large files.

see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-Perl-Tidy/CHANGES.md
[#]# 2023 03 09
- No significant bugs have been found since the last release to CPAN.
Several minor issues have been fixed, and some new parameters have been
added, as follows:
- Added parameter --one-line-block-exclusion-list=s, or -olbxl=s, where
s is a list of block types which should not automatically be turned
into one-line blocks. This implements the issue raised in PR #111.
The list s may include any of the words 'sort map grep eval', or
it may be '*' to indicate all of these. So for example to prevent
multi-line 'eval' blocks from becoming one-line blocks, the command
would be -olbxl='eval'.
- For the -b (--backup-and-modify-in-place) option, the file timestamps
are changing (git #113, rt#145999). First, if there are no formatting
changes to an input file, it will keep its original modification time.
Second, any backup file will keep its original modification time. This
was previously true for --backup-method=move but not for the default
- -backup-method=copy. The purpose of these changes is to avoid
triggering Makefile operations when there are no actual file changes.
If this causes a problem please open an issue for discussion on github.
- A change was made to the way line breaks are made at the '.'
operator when the user sets -wba='.' to requests breaks after a '.'
( this setting is not recommended because it can be hard to read ).
The goal of the change is to make switching from breaks before '.'s
to breaks after '.'s just move the dots from the end of
lines to the beginning of lines. For example:
[#] default and recommended (--want-break-before='.'):
$output_rules .=
( 'class'
. $dir
. '.stamp: $('
. $dir
. '_JAVA)' . "\n" . "\t"
. '$(CLASSPATH_ENV) $(JAVAC) -d $(JAVAROOT) '
. '$(JAVACFLAGS) $?' . "\n" . "\t"
. 'echo timestamp > class'
. $dir
. '.stamp'
. "\n" );
[#] perltidy --want-break-after='.'
$output_rules .=
( 'class' .
$dir .
'.stamp: $(' .
$dir .
'_JAVA)' . "\n" . "\t" .
'$(CLASSPATH_ENV) $(JAVAC) -d $(JAVAROOT) ' .
'$(JAVACFLAGS) $?' . "\n" . "\t" .
'echo timestamp > class' .
$dir .
'.stamp' .
"\n" );
For existing code formatted with -wba='.', this may cause some
changes in the formatting of code with long concatenation chains.
- Added option --use-feature=class, or -uf=class, for issue rt #145706.
This adds keywords 'class', 'method', 'field', and 'ADJUST' in support of
this feature which is being tested for future inclusion in Perl.
An effort has been made to avoid conflicts with past uses of these
words, especially 'method' and 'class'. The default setting
is --use-feature=class. If this causes a conflict, this option can
be turned off by entering -uf=' '.
In other words, perltidy should work for both old and new uses of
these keywords with the default settings, but this flag is available
if a conflict arises.
- Added option -bfvt=n, or --brace-follower-vertical-tightness=n,
for part of issue git #110. For n=2, this option looks for lines
which would otherwise be, by default,
}
or ..
and joins them into a single line
} or ..
where the or can be one of a number of logical operators or if unless.
The default is not to do this and can be indicated with n=1.
- Added option -cpb, or --cuddled-paren-brace, for issue git #110.
This option will cause perltidy to join two lines which
otherwise would be, by default,
)
{
into a single line
) {
- Some minor changes to existing formatted output may occur as a result
of fixing minor formatting issues with edge cases. This is especially
true for code which uses the -lp or -xlp styles.
- Added option -dbs, or --dump-block-summary, to dump summary
information about code blocks in a file to standard output.
The basic command is:
perltidy -dbs somefile.pl >blocks.csv
Instead of formatting ``somefile.pl``, this dumps the following
comma-separated items describing its blocks to the standard output:
filename - the name of the file
line - the line number of the opening brace of this block
line_count - the number of lines between opening and closing braces
code_lines - the number of lines excluding blanks, comments, and pod
type - the block type (sub, for, foreach, ...)
name - the block name if applicable (sub name, label, asub name)
depth - the nesting depth of the opening block brace
max_change - the change in depth to the most deeply nested code block
block_count - the total number of code blocks nested in this block
mccabe_count - the McCabe complexity measure of this code block
This can be useful for code restructuring. The man page for perltidy
has more information and describes controls for selecting block types.
- This version was stress-tested for over 100 cpu hours with random
input parameters. No failures to converge, internal fault checks,
undefined variable references or other irregularities were seen.
- This version runs a few percent faster than the previous release on
large files due to optimizations made with the help of Devel::NYTProf.

- updated to 20221112
see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-Perl-Tidy/CHANGES.md
[#]# 2022 11 12
- Fix rt #145095, undef warning in Perl before 5.12. Version 20221112 is
identical to 2022111 except for this fix for older versions of Perl.
- No significant bugs have been found since the last release to CPAN.
Several minor issues have been fixed, and some new parameters have been
added, as follows:
- Fixed rare problem with irregular indentation involving --cuddled-else,
usually also with the combination -xci and -lp. Reported in rt #144979.
- Add option --weld-fat-comma (-wfc) for issue git #108. When -wfc
is set, along with -wn, perltidy is allowed to weld an opening paren
to an inner opening container when they are separated by a hash key
and fat comma (=>). For example:
[#] perltidy -wn
elf->call_method(
method_name_foo => {
some_arg1 => $foo,
some_other_arg3 => $bar->{'baz'},
}
);
[#] perltidy -wn -wfc
elf->call_method( method_name_foo => {
some_arg1 => $foo,
some_other_arg3 => $bar->{'baz'},
} );
This flag is off by default.
- Fix issue git #106. This fixes some edge cases of formatting with the
combination -xlp -pt=2, mainly for two-line lists with short function
names. One indentation space is removed to improve alignment:
[#] OLD: perltidy -xlp -pt=2
is($module->VERSION, $expected,
"$main_module->VERSION matches $module->VERSION ($expected)");
[#] NEW: perltidy -xlp -pt=2
is($module->VERSION, $expected,
"$main_module->VERSION matches $module->VERSION ($expected)");
- Fix for issue git #105, incorrect formatting with 5.36 experimental
for_list feature.
- Fix for issue git #103. For parameter -b, or --backup-and-modify-in-place,
the default backup method has been changed to preserve the inode value
of the file being formatted. If this causes a problem, the previous
method is available and can be used by setting -backup-mode='move', or
- bm='move'. The new default corresponds to -bm='copy'. The difference
between the two methods is as follows. For the older method,
- bm='move', the input file was moved to the backup, and a new file was
created for the formatted output. This caused the inode to change. For
the new default method, -bm='copy', the input is copied to the backup
and then the input file is reopened and rewritten. This preserves the
file inode. Tests have not produced any problems with this change, but
before using the --backup-and-modify-in-place parameter please verify
that it works correctly in your environment and operating system. The
initial update for this had an error which was caught and fixed
in git #109.
- Fix undefined value message when perltidy -D is used (git #104)
- Fixed an inconsistency in html colors near pointers when -html is used.
Previously, a '->' at the end of a line got the 'punctuation color', black
by default but a '->' before an identifier got the color of the following
identifier. Now all pointers get the same color, which is black by default.
Also, previously a word following a '->' was given the color of a bareword,
black by default, but now it is given the color of an identifier.
- Fixed incorrect indentation of any function named 'err'. This was
due to some old code from when "use feature 'err'" was valid.
[#] OLD:
my ($curr) = current();
err (@_);
[#] NEW:
my ($curr) = current();
err(@_);
- Added parameter --delete-repeated-commas (-drc) to delete repeated
commas. This is off by default. For example, given:
ignoreSpec( $file, "file",, \%spec, \%Rspec );
[#] perltidy -drc:
ignoreSpec( $file, "file", \%spec, \%Rspec );
- Add continuation indentation to long C-style 'for' terms; i.e.
[#] OLD
for (
$j = $i - $shell ;
$j >= 0
&& ++$ncomp
&& $array->[$j] gt $array->[ $j + $shell ] ;
$j -= $shell
)
[#] NEW
for (
$j = $i - $shell ;
$j >= 0
&& ++$ncomp
&& $array->[$j] gt $array->[ $j + $shell ] ;
$j -= $shell
)
This will change some existing formatting with very long 'for' terms.
- The following new parameters are available for manipulating
trailing commas of lists. They are described in the manual.
- -want-trailing-commas=s, -wtc=s
- -add-trailing-commas, -atc
- -delete-trailing-commas, -dtc
- -delete-weld-interfering-commas, -dwic
- Files with errors due to missing, extra or misplaced parens, braces,
or square brackets are now written back out verbatim, without any
attempt at formatting.
- This version runs 10 to 15 percent faster than the previous
release on large files due to optimizations made with the help of
Devel::NYTProf.
- This version was stress-tested for over 200 cpu hours with random
input parameters. No failures to converge, internal fault checks,
undefined variable references or other irregularities were seen.

- No significant bugs have been found since the last release but users
of programs which call the Perl::Tidy module should note the first
item below, which changes a default setting. The main change to
existing formatting is the second item below, which adds vertical
alignment to 'use' statements.
- The flag --encode-output-strings, or -eos, is now set 'on' by default.
This has no effect on the use of the 'perltidy' binary script, but could
change the behavior of some programs which use the Perl::Tidy module on
files encoded in UTF-8. If any problems are noticed, an emergency fix
can be made by reverting to the old default by setting -neos. For
an explanation of why this change needs to be made see:
https://github.com/perltidy/perltidy/issues/92
https://github.com/perltidy/perltidy/blob/master/docs/eos_flag.md
- Added vertical alignment for qw quotes and empty parens in 'use'
statements (see issue #git 93). This new alignment is 'on' by default
and will change formatting as shown below. If this is not wanted it can
be turned off with the parameter -vxl='q' (--valign-exclude-list='q').
[#] old default, or -vxl='q'
use Getopt::Long qw(GetOptions);
use Fcntl qw(O_RDONLY O_WRONLY O_EXCL O_CREAT);
use Symbol qw(gensym);
use Exporter ();
[#] new default
use Getopt::Long qw(GetOptions);
use Fcntl qw(O_RDONLY O_WRONLY O_EXCL O_CREAT);
use Symbol qw(gensym);
use Exporter ();
- The parameter -kbb (--keep-break-before) now ignores a request to break
before an opening token, such as '('. Likewise, -kba (--keep-break-after)
now ignores a request to break after a closing token, such as ')'. This
change was made to avoid a rare instability discovered in random testing.
- Previously, if a -dsc command was used to delete all side comments,
then any special side comments for controlling non-indenting braces got
deleted too. Now, these control side comments are retained when -dsc is
set unless a -nnib (--nonon-indenting-braces) flag is also set to
deactivate them.
- This version runs about 10 percent faster on large files than the previous
release due to optimizations made with the help of Devel::NYTProf. Much
of the gain came from faster processing of blank tokens and comments.
- This version of perltidy was stress-tested for many cpu hours with
random input parameters. No failures to converge, internal fault checks,
undefined variable references or other irregularities were seen.

[#]# 2022 02 17
- A new flag, --encode-output-strings, or -eos, has been added to resolve
issue git #83. This issue involves the interface between Perl::Tidy and
calling programs, and Code::TidyAll (tidyall) in particular. The problem
is that perltidy by default returns decoded character strings, but
tidyall expects encoded strings. This flag provides a fix for that.
So, tidyall users who process encoded (utf8) files should update to this
version of Perl::Tidy and use -eos for tidyall. For further info see:
https://github.com/houseabsolute/perl-code-tidyall/issues/84, and
https://github.com/perltidy/perltidy/issues/83
If there are other applications having utf8 problems at the interface
with Perl::Tidy, this flag probably may need to be set.
- The default value of the new flag, --encode-output-strings, -eos, is currently
- neos BUT THIS MAY CHANGE in a future release because the current
default is inconvenient. So authors of programs which receive character
strings back from Perl::Tidy should set this flag, if necessary,
to avoid any problems when the default changes. For more information see the
above links and the Perl::Tidy man pages for example coding.
- The possible values of the string 's' for the flag '--character-encoding=s'
have been limited to 'utf8' (or UTF-8), 'none', or 'guess'. Previously an
arbitrary encoding could also be specified, but as a result of discussions
regarding git #83 it became clear that this could cause trouble
since the output encoding was still restricted to UTF-8. Users
who need to work in other encodings can write a short program calling
Perl::Tidy with pre- and post-processing to handle encoding/decoding.
- A new flag --break-after-labels=i, or -bal=i, was added for git #86. This
controls line breaks after labels, to provide a uniform style, as follows:
- bal=0 follows the input line breaks [DEFAULT]
- bal=1 always break after a label
- bal=2 never break after a label
For example:
[#] perltidy -bal=1
INIT:
{
$xx = 1.234;
}
[#] perltidy -bal=2
INIT: {
$xx = 1.234;
}
- Fix issue git #82, an error handling something like ${bareword} in a
possible indirect object location. Perl allows this, now perltidy does too.
- The flags -kbb=s or --keep-old-breakpoints-before=s, and its counterpart
- kba=s or --keep-old-breakpoints-after=s have expanded functionality
for the container tokens: { [ ( } ] ). The updated man pages have
details.
- Two new flags have been added to provide finer vertical alignment control,
- -valign-exclusion-list=s (-vxl=s) and --valign-inclusion-list=s (-vil=s).
This has been requested several times, most recently in git #79, and it
finally got done. For example, -vil='=>' means just align on '=>'.
- A new flag -gal=s, --grep-alias-list=s, has been added as suggested in
git #77. This allows code blocks passed to list operator functions to
be formatted in the same way as a code block passed to grep, map, or sort.
By default, the following list operators in List::Util are included:
all any first none notall reduce reductions
They can be changed with the flag -gaxl=s, -grep-alias-exclusion-list=s
- A new flag -xlp has been added which can be set to avoid most of the
limitations of the -lp flag regarding side comments, blank lines, and
code blocks. See the man pages for more info. This fixes git #64 and git #74.
The older -lp flag still works.
- A new flag -lpil=s, --line-up-parentheses-inclusion-list=s, has been added
as an alternative to -lpxl=s, --line-up-parentheses-exclusion-list=s.
It supplies equivalent information but is much easier to describe and use.
It works for both the older -lp version and the newer -xlp.
- The coding for the older -lp flag has been updated to avoid some problems
and limitations. The new coding allows the -lp indentation style to
mix smoothly with the standard indentation in a single file. Some problems
where -lp and -xci flags were not working well together have been fixed, such
as happened in issue rt140025. As a result of these updates some minor
changes in existing code using the -lp style may occur.
- This version of perltidy was stress-tested for many cpu hours with
random input parameters. No failures to converge, internal fault checks,
undefined variable references or other irregularities were seen.
- Numerous minor fixes have been made, mostly very rare formatting
instabilities found in random testing.

- No significant bugs have been found since the last release, but several
minor issues have been fixed. Vertical alignment has been improved for
lists of call args which are not contained within parens (next item).
- Vertical alignment of function calls without parens has been improved with
the goal of making vertical alignment essentially the same with or
without parens around the call args. Some examples:
[#] OLD
mkTextConfig $c, $x, $y, -anchor => 'se', $color;
mkTextConfig $c, $x + 30, $y, -anchor => 's', $color;
mkTextConfig $c, $x + 60, $y, -anchor => 'sw', $color;
mkTextConfig $c, $x, $y + 30, -anchor => 'e', $color;
[#] NEW

mkTextConfig $c, $x, $y + 30, -anchor => 'e', $color;
[#] OLD
is id_2obj($id), undef, "unregistered object not retrieved";
is scalar keys %$ob_reg, 0, "object registry empty";
is register($obj), $obj, "object returned by register";
is scalar keys %$ob_reg, 1, "object registry nonempty";
is id_2obj($id), $obj, "registered object retrieved";
[#] NEW

is register($obj), $obj, "object returned by register";
is scalar keys %$ob_reg, 1, "object registry nonempty";
is id_2obj($id), $obj, "registered object retrieved";
This will cause some changes in alignment, hopefully for the better,
particularly in test code which often uses numerous parenless function
calls with functions like 'ok', 'is', 'is_deeply', ....
- Two new parameters were added to control the block types to which the
- bl (--opening-brace-on-new-line) flag applies. The new parameters are
- block-left-list=s, or -bll=s, and --block-left-exclusion-list=s,
or -blxl=s. Previously the -bl flag was 'hardwired' to apply to
nearly all blocks. The default values of the new parameters
retain the the old default behavior but allow it to be changed.
- The default behavior of the -bli (-brace-left-and-indent) flag has changed
slightly. Previously, if you set -bli, then the -bl flag would also
automatically be set. Consequently, block types which were not included
in the default list for -bli would get -bl formatting. This is no longer done,
and these two styles are now controlled independently. The manual describes
the controls. If you want to recover the exact previous default behavior of
the -bli then add the -bl flag.
- A partial fix was made for issue for git #74. The -lp formatting style was
being lost when a one-line anonymous sub was followed by a closing brace.
- Fixed issue git #73, in which the -nfpva flag was not working correctly.
Some unwanted vertical alignments of spaced function perens
were being made.
- Updated the man pages to clarify the flags -valign and -novalign
for turning vertical alignment on and off (issue git #72).
Added parameters -vc -vsc -vbc for separately turning off vertical
alignment of code, side comments and block comments.
- Fixed issue git #68, where a blank line following a closing code-skipping
comment, '#>>V', could be lost.
- This version runs 10 to 15 percent faster on large files than the
previous release due to optimizations made with the help of NYTProf.
- This version of perltidy was stress-tested for many cpu hours with
random input parameters. No instabilities, internal fault checks,
undefined variable references or other irregularities were seen.
- Numerous minor fixes have been made, mostly very rare formatting instabilities
found in random testing. An effort has been made to minimize changes to
existing formatting that these fixes produce, but occasional changes
may occur. Many of these updates are listed at:

[#]# 2021 07 17
- This release is being made mainly because of the next item, in which an
error message about an uninitialized value error message could be produced
in certain cases when format-skipping is used. The error message was
annoying but harmless to formatting.
- Fixed an undefined variable message, see git #67. When a format skipping
comment '#<<' is placed before the first line of code in a script, a
message 'Use of uninitialized value $Ktoken_vars in numeric ...' can
occur.
- A warning will no longer be given if a script has an opening code-skipping
comment '#<<V' which is not terminated with a closing comment '#>>V'. This
makes code-skipping and format-skipping behave in a similar way: an
opening comment without a corresponding closing comment will cause
the rest of a file to be skipped. If there is a question about which lines
are skipped, a .LOG file can be produced with the -g flag and it will have
this information.
- Removed the limit on -ci=n when -xci is set, reference: rt #136415.
This update removes a limit in the previous two versions in which the
value of -ci=n was limited to the value of -i=n when -xci was set.
This limit had been placed to avoid some formatting instabilities,
but recent coding improvements allow the limit to be removed.
- The -wn and -bbxx=n flags were not working together correctly. This has
been fixed.
- This version may produce occasional differences in formatting compared to
previous versions, mainly for lines which are near the specified line
length limit. This is due to ongoing efforts to eliminate edge cases of
formatting instability.

- This release adds several new requested parameters. No significant bugs have
been found since the last release, but a number of minor problems have been
corrected.
- Added a new option '--code-skipping', requested in git #65, in which code
between comment lines '#<<V' and '#>>V' is passed verbatim to the output
stream without error checking. It is simmilar to --format-skipping
but there is no error checking of the skipped code. This can be useful for
skipping past code which employs an extended syntax.
- Added a new option for closing paren placement, -vtc=3, requested in rt #136417.
- Added flag -atnl, --add-terminal-newline, to help issue git #58.
This flag tells perltidy to terminate the last line of the output stream
with a newline character, regardless of whether or not the input stream
was terminated with a newline character. This is the default.
If this flag is negated, with -natnl, then perltidy will add a terminal
newline character to the the output stream only if the input
stream is terminated with a newline.
- Some nested structures formatted with the -lp indentation option may have
some changes in indentation. This is due to updates which were made to
prevent formatting instability when line lengths are limited by the maximum line
length. Most scripts will not be affected. If this causes unwanted formatting
changes, try increasing the --maximum-line-length by a few characters.

[#]# 2021 04 02
- This release fixes several non-critical bugs which have been found since the last
release. An effort has been made to keep existing formatting unchanged.
- Fixed issue git #57 regarding uninitialized warning flag.
- Added experimental flag -lpxl=s requested in issue git #56 to provide some
control over which containers get -lp indentation.
- Fixed issue git #55 regarding lack of coordination of the --break-before-xxx
flags and the --line-up-parens flag.
- Fixed issue git #54 regarding irregular application of the --break-before-paren
and similar --break-before-xxx flags, in which lists without commas were not
being formatted according to these flags.
- Fixed issue git #53. A flag was added to turn off alignment of spaced function
parens. If the --space-function-paren, -sfp flag is set, a side-effect is that the
spaced function parens may get vertically aligned. This can be undesirable,
so a new parameter '--function-paren-vertical-alignment', or '-fpva', has been
added to turn this vertical alignment off. The default is '-fpva', so that
existing formatting is not changed. Use '-nfpva' to turn off unwanted
vertical alignment. To illustrate the possibilities:
[#] perltidy [default]
myfun( $aaa, $b, $cc );
mylongfun( $a, $b, $c );
[#] perltidy -sfp
myfun ( $aaa, $b, $cc );
mylongfun ( $a, $b, $c );
[#] perltidy -sfp -nfpva
myfun ( $aaa, $b, $cc );
mylongfun ( $a, $b, $c );
- Fixed issue git #51, a closing qw bare paren was not being outdented when
the -nodelete-old-newlines flag was set.
- Fixed numerous edge cases involving unusual parameter combinations which
could cause alternating output states. Most scripts will not be
changed by these fixes.

- Fixed issue git #49, -se breaks warnings exit status behavior.
The exit status flag was not always being set when the -se flag was set.
- Some improvements have been made in the method for aligning side comments.
One of the problems that was fixed is that there was a tendency for side comment
placement to drift to the right in long scripts. Programs with side comments
may have a few changes.
- Some improvements have been made in formatting qw quoted lists. This
fixes issue git #51, in which closing qw pattern delimiters not always
following the settings specified by the --closing-token-indentation=n settings.
Now qw closing delimiters ')', '}' and ']' follow these flags, and the
delimiter '>' follows the flag for ')'. Other qw pattern delimiters remain
indented as the are now. This change will cause some small formatting changes
in some existing programs.
- Another change involving qw lists is that they get full indentation,
rather than just continuation indentation, if
(1) the closing delimiter is one of } ) ] > and is on a separate line,
(2) the opening delimiter (i.e. 'qw{' ) is also on a separate line, and
(3) the -xci flag (--extended-continuation-indentation) is set.
This improves formatting when qw lists are contained in other lists. For example,
[#] OLD: perltidy
foreach $color (
qw(
AntiqueWhite3 Bisque1 Bisque2 Bisque3 Bisque4
SlateBlue3 RoyalBlue1 SteelBlue2 DeepSkyBlue3
),
qw(
LightBlue1 DarkSlateGray1 Aquamarine2 DarkSeaGreen2
SeaGreen1 Yellow1 IndianRed1 IndianRed2 Tan1 Tan4
)
)
[#] NEW, perltidy -xci
foreach $color (
qw(
AntiqueWhite3 Bisque1 Bisque2 Bisque3 Bisque4
SlateBlue3 RoyalBlue1 SteelBlue2 DeepSkyBlue3
),
qw(
LightBlue1 DarkSlateGray1 Aquamarine2 DarkSeaGreen2

- This release is being made primarily to make available a several new formatting
parameters, in particular -xci, -kbb=s, -kba=s, and -wnxl=s. No significant
bugs have been found since the previous release, but numerous minor issues have
been found and fixed as listed below.
- This version is about 20% faster than the previous version due to optimizations
made with the help of Devel::NYTProf.
- Added flag -wnxl=s, --weld-nested-exclusion-list=s, to provide control which containers
are welded with the --weld-nested-containers parameter. This is related to issue git #45.
- Merged pull request git #46 which fixes the docs regarding the -fse flag.
- Fixed issue git #45, -vtc=n flag was ignored when -wn was set.
- implement request RT #133649, delete-old-newlines selectively. Two parameters,
- kbb=s or --keep-old-breakpoints-before=s, and
- kba=s or --keep-old-breakpoints-after=s
were added to request that old breakpoints be kept before or after
selected token types. For example, -kbb='=>' means that newlines before
fat commas should be kept.
- Fix git #44, fix exit status for assert-tidy/untidy. The exit status was
always 0 for --assert-tidy if the user had turned off all error messages with
the -quiet flag. This has been fixed.
- Add flag -maxfs=n, --maximum-file-size-mb=n. This parameter is provided to
avoid causing system problems by accidentally attempting to format an
extremely large data file. The default is n=10. The command to increase
the limit to 20 MB for example would be -mfs=20. This only applies to
files specified by filename on the command line.
- Skip formatting if there are too many indentation level errors. This is
controlled with -maxle=n, --maximum-level-errors=n. This means that if
the ending indentation differs from the starting indentation by more than
n levels, the file will be output verbatim. The default is n=1.
To skip this check, set n=-1 or set n to a large number.
- A related new flag, --maximum-unexpected-errors=n, or -maxue=n, is available
but is off by default.
- Add flag -xci, --extended-continuation-indentation, regarding issue git #28
This flag causes continuation indentation to "extend" deeper into structures.
Since this is a fairly new flag, the default is -nxci to avoid disturbing
existing formatting. BUT you will probably see some improved formatting
in complex data structures by setting this flag if you currently use -ci=n
and -i=n with the same value of 'n' (as is the case if you use -pbp,
- -perl-best-practices, where n=4).
- Fix issue git #42, clarify how --break-at-old-logical-breakpoints works.
The man page was updated to note that it does not cause all logical breakpoints
to be replicated in the output file.
- Fix issue git #41, typo in manual regarding -fsb.
- Fix issue git #40: when using the -bli option, a closing brace followed by
a semicolon was not being indented. This applies to braces which require
semicolons, such as a 'do' block.
- Added 'state' as a keyword.
- A better test for convergence has been added. When iterations are requested,
the new test will stop after the first pass if no changes in line break
locations are made. Previously, file checksums were used and required at least two
passes to verify convergence unless no formatting changes were made. With the new test,
only a single pass is needed when formatting changes are limited to adjustments of
indentation and whitespace on the lines of code. Extensive testing has been made to
verify the correctness of the new convergence test.
- Line breaks are now automatically placed after 'use overload' to
improve formatting when there are numerous overloaded operators. For
example
use overload
'+' => sub {
...
- A number of minor problems with parsing signatures and prototypes have
been corrected, particularly multi-line signatures. Some signatures
had previously been parsed as if they were prototypes, which meant the
normal spacing rules were not applied. For example
OLD:
sub echo ($message= 'Hello World!' ) {
...;
}
NEW:
sub echo ( $message = 'Hello World!' ) {
...;
}

- Added the token '->' to the list of alignment tokens, as suggested in git

- Added parameters -bbhb=n (--break-before-hash-brace=n), -bbsb=n (--break-before-square-bracket=n),
and -bbp=n (--break-before-paren=n) suggested in git #38. These provide control over the
opening container token of a multiple-line list. Related new parameters -bbhbi=n, -bbsbi=n, -bbpi=n
control indentation of these tokens.
- Added keyword 'isa'.

It occurs in perltidy versions 20200110, 20200619, and 20200822. What happens is
that when two consecutive lines with isolated closing braces had new side
comments generated by the -csc parameter, a separating newline was missing.
The resulting script will not then run, but worse, if it is reformatted with
the same parameters then closing side comments could be overwritten and data
lost.
This problem was found during automated random testing. The parameter
- scbb is rarely used, which is probably why this has not been reported. Please
upgrade your version.
- Added parameter --non-indenting-braces, or -nib, which prevents
code from indenting one level if it follows an opening brace marked
with a special side comment, '#<<<'. For example,
{ #<<< a closure to contain lexical vars
my $var; # this line does not indent
}
[#] this line cannot 'see' $var;
This is on by default. If your code happens to have some
opening braces followed by '#<<<', and you
don't want this, you can use -nnib to deactivate it.
- Side comment locations reset at a line ending in a level 0 open
block, such as when a new multi-line sub begins. This is intended to
help keep side comments from drifting to far to the right.

- Fix RT #133166, encoding not set for -st. Also reported as RT #133171
and git #35.
This is a significant bug in version 20200616 which can corrupt data if
perltidy is run as a filter on encoded text.
* *Please upgrade**
- Fix issue RT #133161, perltidy -html was not working on pod
- Fix issue git #33, allow control of space after '->'
- Vertical alignment has been improved. Numerous minor issues have
been fixed.
- Formatting with the -lp option is improved.
- Fixed issue git #32, misparse of bare 'ref' in ternary
- When --assert-tidy is used and triggers an error, the first difference
between input and output files is shown in the error output. This is
a partial response to issue git #30.

- Added support for Switch::Plain syntax, issue git #31.
- Fixed minor problem where trailing 'unless' clauses were not
getting vertically aligned.
- Added a parameter --logical-padding or -lop to allow logical padding
to be turned off. Requested by git #29. This flag is on by default.
The man pages have examples.
- Added a parameter -kpit=n to control spaces inside of parens following
certain keywords, requested in git#26. This flag is off by default.
- Added fix for git#25, improve vertical alignment for long lists with
varying numbers of items per line.
- calls to the module Perl::Tidy can now capture any output produced
by a debug flag or one of the 'tee' flags through the new 'debugfile' and
'teefile' call parameters. These output streams are rarely used but
they are now treated the same as any 'logfile' stream.
- add option --break-at-old-semicolon-breakpoints', -bos, requested
in RT#131644. This flag will keep lines beginning with a semicolon.
- Added --use-unicode-gcstring to control use of Unicode::GCString for
evaluating character widths of encoded data. The default is
not to use this (--nouse-unicode-gcstring). If this flag is set,
perltidy will look for Unicode::GCString and, if found, will use it
to evaluate character display widths. This can improve displayed
vertical alignment for files with wide characters. It is a nice
feature but it is off by default to avoid conflicting formatting
when there are multiple developers. Perltidy installation does not
require Unicode::GCString, so users wanting to use this feature need
set this flag and also to install Unicode::GCString separately.
- Added --character-encoding=guess or -guess to have perltidy guess
if a file (or other input stream) is encoded as -utf8 or some
other single-byte encoding. This is useful when processing a mixture
of file types, such as utf8 and latin-1.
Please Note: The default encoding has been set to be 'guess'
instead of 'none'. This seems like the best default, since
it allows perltidy work properly with both
utf8 files and older latin-1 files. The guess mode uses Encode::Guess,
which is included in standard perl distributions, and only tries to
guess if a file is utf8 or not, never any other encoding. If the guess is
utf8, and if the file successfully decodes as utf8, then it the encoding
is assumed to be utf8. Otherwise, no encoding is assumed.
If you do not want to use this new default guess mode, or have a
problem with it, you can set --character-encoding=none (the previous
default) or --character-encoding=utf8 (if you deal with utf8 files).
- Specific encodings of input files other than utf8 may now be given, for
example --character-encoding=euc-jp.
- Fix for git#22, Preserve function signature on a single line. An
unwanted line break was being introduced when a closing signature paren
followed a closing do brace.
- Fix RT#132059, the -dac parameter was not working and caused an error exit
- When -utf8 is used, any error output is encoded as utf8
- Fix for git#19, adjust line break around an 'xor'
- Fix for git#18, added warning for missing comma before unknown bare word.

[#]# 2020 01 10
- This release adds a flag to control the feature RT#130394 (allow short nested blocks)
introduced in the previous release. Unfortunately that feature breaks
RPerl installations, so a control flag has been introduced and that feature is now
off by default. The flag is:
- -one-line-block-nesting=n, or -olbn=n, where n is an integer as follows:
- olbn=0 break nested one-line blocks into multiple lines [new DEFAULT]
- olbn=1 stable; keep existing nested-one line blocks intact [previous DEFAULT]
For example, consider this input line:
foreach (@list) { if ($_ eq $asked_for) { last } ++$found }
The new default behavior (-olbn=0), and behavior prior to version 20191203, is to break it into multiple lines:
foreach (@list) {
if ( $_ eq $asked_for ) { last }
++$found;
}
To keep nested one-line blocks such as this on a single line you can add the parameter -olbn=1.
- Fixed issue RT#131288: parse error for un-prototyped constant function without parenthesized
call parameters followed by ternary.
- Fixed issue RT#131360, installation documentation. Added a note that the binary
'perltidy' comes with the Perl::Tidy module. They can both normally be installed with
'cpanm Perl::Tidy'

- Fixed issue RT#131115: -bli option not working correctly.
Closing braces were not indented in some cases due to a glitch
introduced in version 20181120.
- Fixed issue RT#130394: Allow short nested blocks. Given the following
$factorial = sub { reduce { $a * $b } 1 .. 11 };
Previous versions would always break the sub block because it
contains another block (the reduce block). The fix keeps
short one-line blocks such as this intact.
- Implement issue RT#130640: Allow different subroutine keywords.
Added a flag --sub-alias-list=s or -sal=s, where s is a string with
one or more aliases for 'sub', separated by spaces or commas.
For example,
perltidy -sal='method fun'
will cause the perltidy to treat the words 'method' and 'fun' to be
treated the same as if they were 'sub'.
- Added flag --space-prototype-paren=i, or -spp=i, to control spacing
before the opening paren of a prototype, where i=0, 1, or 2:
i=0 no space
i=1 follow input [current and default]
i=2 always space
Previously, perltidy always followed the input.
For example, given the following input
sub usage();
The result will be:
sub usage(); # i=0 [no space]
sub usage(); # i=1 [default; follows input]
sub usage (); # i=2 [space]
- Fixed issue git#16, minor vertical alignment issue.
- Fixed issue git#10, minor conflict of -wn and -ce

- fixed issue RT#130344: false warning "operator in print statement"
for "use lib".
- fixed issue RT#130304: standard error output should include filename.
When perltidy error messages are directed to the standard error output
with -se or --standard-error-output, the message lines now have a prefix
'filename:' for clarification in case multiple files
are processed, where 'filename' is the name of the input file. If
input is from the standard input the displayed filename is '<stdin>',
and if it is from a data structure then displayed filename
is '<source_stream>'.
- implement issue RT#130425: check mode. A new flag '--assert-tidy'
will cause an error message if the output script is not identical to
the input script. For completeness, the opposite flag '--assert-untidy'
has also been added. The next item, RT#130297, insures that the script
will exit with a non-zero exit flag if the assertion fails.
- fixed issue RT#130297; the perltidy script now exits with a nonzero exit
status if it wrote to the standard error output. Prevously only fatal
run errors produced a non-zero exit flag. Now, even non-fatal messages
requested with the -w flag will cause a non-zero exit flag. The exit
flag now has these values:
0 = no errors
1 = perltidy could not run to completion due to errors
2 = perltidy ran to completion with error messages
- added warning message for RT#130008, which warns of conflicting input
parameters -iob and -bom or -boc.
- fixed RT#129850; concerning a space between a closing block brace and
opening bracket or brace, as occurs before the '[' in this line:
my @addunix = map { File::Spec::Unix->catfile( @ROOT, @$_ ) } ['b'];
Formerly, any space was removed. Now it is optional, and the output will
follow the input.
- fixed issue git#13, needless trailing whitespace in error message
- fixed issue git#9: if the -ce (--cuddled-else) flag is used,
do not try to form new one line blocks for a block type
specified with -cbl, particularly map, sort, grep
- iteration speedup for unchanged code. Previously, when iterations were
requested, at least two formatting passes were made. Now just a single pass
is made if the formatted code is identical to the input code.
- some improved vertical alignments

- rt #128477: Prevent inconsistent owner/group and setuid/setgid bits.
In the -b (--backup-and-modify-in-place) mode, an attempt is made to set ownership
of the output file equal to the input file, if they differ.
In all cases, if the final output file ownership differs from input file, any setuid/setgid bits are cleared.
- Added option -bom (--break-at-old-method-breakpoints) by
merrillymeredith which preserves breakpoints of method chains. Modified to also handle a cuddled call style.
- Merged patch to fix Windows EOL translation error with UTF-8 written by
Ron Ivy. This update prevents automatic conversion to 'DOS' CRLF line
endings. Also, Windows system testing at the appveyor site is working again.
- RT #128280, added flag --one-line-block-semicolons=n (-olbs=n)
to control semicolons in one-line blocks. The values of n are:
n=0 means no semicolons termininating simple one-line blocks
n=1 means stable; do not change from input file [DEFAULT and current]
n=2 means always add semicolons in one-line blocks
The current behavior corresponds to the default n=1.
- RT #128216, Minor update to prevent inserting unwanted blank line at
indentation level change. This should not change existing scripts.
- RT #81852: Improved indentation when quoted word (qw) lists are
nested within other containers using the --weld-nested (-wn) flag.
The example given previously (below) is now closer to what it would
be with a simple list instead of qw:
[#] perltidy -wn
use_all_ok( qw{
PPI
PPI::Tokenizer
PPI::Lexer
PPI::Dumper
PPI::Find
PPI::Normal
PPI::Util
PPI::Cache
} );
- RT#12764, introduced new feature allowing placement of blanks around
sequences of selected keywords. This can be activated with the -kgb*
series of parameters described in the manual.
- Rewrote vertical algnment module. It is better at finding
patterns in complex code. For example,
OLD:
/^-std$/ && do { $std = 1; next; };
/^--$/ && do { @link_args = @argv; last; };
/^-I(.*)/ && do { $path = $1 || shift @argv; next; };
NEW:
/^-std$/ && do { $std = 1; next; };
/^--$/ && do { @link_args = @argv; last; };
/^-I(.*)/ && do { $path = $1 || shift @argv; next; };
- Add repository URLs to META files
- RT #118553, "leave only one newline at end of file". This option was not
added because of undesirable side effects, but a new filter script
was added which can do this, "examples/delete_ending_blank_lines.pl".

- Added new flag -wn (--weld-nested-containers) which addresses these issues:
RT #123749: Problem with promises;
RT #119970: opening token stacking strange behavior;
RT #81853: Can't stack block braces
This option causes closely nested pairs of opening and closing containers
to be "welded" together and essentially be formatted as a single unit,
with just one level of indentation.
Since this is a new flag it is set to be "off" by default but it has given
excellent results in testing.
EXAMPLE 1, multiple blocks, default formatting:
do {
{
next if $x == $y; # do something here
}
} until $x++ > $z;
perltidy -wn
do { {
next if $x == $y;
} } until $x++ > $z;
EXAMPLE 2, three levels of wrapped function calls, default formatting:
p(
em(
conjug(
translate( param('verb') ), param('tense'),
param('person')
)
)
);
[#] perltidy -wn
p( em( conjug(
translate( param('verb') ),
param('tense'), param('person')
) ) );
[#] EXAMPLE 3, chained method calls, default formatting:
get('http://mojolicious.org')->then(
sub {
my $mojo = shift;
say $mojo->res->code;
return get('http://metacpan.org');
}
)->then(
sub {
my $cpan = shift;
say $cpan->res->code;
}
)->catch(
sub {
my $err = shift;

my $cpan = shift;
say $cpan->res->code;
} )->catch( sub {
my $err = shift;
warn "Something went wrong: $err";
} )->wait;
- Fixed RT #114359: Missparsing of "print $x ** 0.5;
- Deactivated the --check-syntax flag for better security. It will be
ignored if set.
- Corrected minimum perl version from 5.004 to 5.008 based on perlver
report. The change is required for coding involving wide characters.
- For certain severe errors, the source file will be copied directly to the
output without formatting. These include ending in a quote, ending in a
here doc, and encountering an unidentified character.

- RT #123749, partial fix. "Continuation indentation" is removed from lines
with leading closing parens which are part of a call chain.
For example, the call to pack() is is now outdented to the starting
indentation in the following experession:
[#] OLD
$mw->Button(
- text => "New Document",
- command => \&new_document
)->pack(
- side => 'bottom',
- anchor => 'e'
);
[#] NEW
$mw->Button(
- text => "New Document",
- command => \&new_document
)->pack(
- side => 'bottom',
- anchor => 'e'
);
This modification improves readability of complex expressions, especially
when the user uses the same value for continuation indentation (-ci=n) and
normal indentation (-i=n). Perltidy was already programmed to
do this but a minor bug was preventing it.
- RT #123774, added flag to control space between a backslash and a single or
double quote, requested by Robert Rothenberg. The issue is that lines like
$str1=\"string1";
$str2=\'string2';
confuse syntax highlighters unless a space is left between the backslash and
the quote.
The new flag to control this is -sbq=n (--space-backslash-quote=n),
where n=0 means no space, n=1 means follow existing code, n=2 means always
space. The default is n=1, meaning that a space will be retained if there
is one in the source code.
- Fixed RT #123492, support added for indented here doc operator <<~ added
in v5.26. Thanks to Chris Weyl for the report.
- Fixed docs; --closing-side-comment-list-string should have been just
- -closing-side-comment-list. Thanks to F.Li.
- Added patch RT #122030] Perl::Tidy sometimes does not call binmode.
Thanks to Irilis Aelae.
- Fixed RT #121959, PERLTIDY doesn't honor the 'three dot' notation for
locating a config file using environment variables. Thanks to John

to overwriting abritrary files by symlink attack. Perltidy was continuing
to write files after an unlink failure. Thanks to Don Armstrong

delimiter rather than a ternary operator.
return ref {} ? 1 : 0;
- Fixed RT #113792: misparsing of a fat comma (=>) right after
the __END__ or __DATA__ tokens. These keywords were getting

were unnecesarily broken
- RT #32905, patch to fix utf-8 error when output was STDOUT.
- RT #79947, improved spacing of try/catch/finally blocks. Thanks to qsimpleq

- Fixed #114909, Anonymous subs with signatures and prototypes misparsed as
broken ternaries, in which a statement such as this was not being parsed
correctly:
return sub ( $fh, $out ) : prototype(*$) { ... }
- Implemented RT #113689, option to introduces spaces after an opening block
brace and before a closing block brace. Four new optional controls are
added. The first two define the minimum number of blank lines to be
inserted
- blao=i or --blank-lines-after-opening-block=i
- blbc=i or --blank-lines-before-closing-block=i
where i is an integer, the number of lines (the default is 0).
The second two define the types of blocks to which the first two apply
- blaol=s or --blank-lines-after-opening-block-list=s
- blbcl=s or --blank-lines-before-closing-block-list=s
where s is a string of possible block keywords (default is just 'sub',
meaning a named subroutine).
For more information please see the documentation.
- The method for specifying block types for certain input parameters has
been generalized to distinguish between normal named subroutines and
anonymous subs. The keyword for normal subroutines remains 'sub', and
the new keyword for anonymous subs is 'asub'.
- Minor documentation changes. The BUGS sections now have a link
to CPAN where most open bugs and issues can be reviewed and bug reports
can be submitted. The information in the AUTHOR and CREDITS sections of
the man pages have been removed from the man pages to streamline the
documentation. This information is still in the source code.

long comments from being outdented when -io is used.
- Added a check to prevent a problem reported in RT #81866, where large
scripts which had been compressed to a single line could not be formatted
because of a check for VERSION for MakeMaker. The workaround was to
use -nvpl, but this shouldn't be necessary now.
- Fixed RT #96101; Closing brace of anonymous sub in a list was being
indented. For example, the closing brace of the anonymous sub below
will now be lined up with the word 'callback'. This problem
occured if there was no comma after the closing brace of the anonymous sub.
This update may cause minor changes to formatting of code with lists
of anonymous subs, especially TK code.

- Fixed RT #88020. --converge was not working with wide characters.
- Fixed RT #78156. package NAMESPACE VERSION syntax not accepted.
- First attempt to fix RT #88588. INDEX END tag change in pod2html breaks
perltidy -html. I put in a patch which should work but I don't yet have
a way of testing it.

- The flag -cab=n or --comma-arrow-breakpoints=n has been generalized
to give better control over breaking open short containers. The
possible values are now:
n=0 break at all commas after =>
n=1 stable: break at all commas after => if container is open,
EXCEPT FOR one-line containers
n=2 break at all commas after =>, BUT try to form the maximum
maximum one-line container lengths
n=3 do not treat commas after => specially at all
n=4 break everything: like n=0 but also break a short container with
a => not followed by a comma
n=5 stable: like n=1 but ALSO break at open one-line containers (default)
New values n=4 and n=5 have been added to allow short blocks to be
broken open. The new default is n=5, stable. It should more closely
follow the breaks in the input file, and previously formatted code
should remain unchanged. If this causes problems use -cab=1 to recover
the former behavior. Thanks to Tony Maszeroski for the suggestion.
To illustrate the need for the new options, if perltidy is given
the following code, then the old default (-cab=1) was to close up
the 'index' container even if it was open in the source. The new
default (-cab=5) will keep it open if it was open in the source.
our $fancypkg = {
'ALL' => {
'index' => {
'key' => 'value',
},
'alpine' => {
'one' => '+',
'two' => '+',
'three' => '+',
},
}
};
- New debug flag --memoize (-mem). This version contains a
patch supplied by Jonathan Swartz which can significantly speed up
repeated calls to Perl::Tidy::perltidy in a single process by caching
the result of parsing the formatting parameters. A factor of up to 10
speedup was achieved for masontidy (https://metacpan.org/module/masontidy).
The memoization patch is on by default but can be deactivated for
testing with -nmem (or --no-memoize).
* Mon Dec 19 2011 coolo@suse.de
- update to 20101217
- added new flag -it=n or --iterations=n
- A configuration file pathname begins with three dots, e.g.
".../.perltidyrc", indicates that the file should be searched for starting
in the current directory and working upwards.
- Added flag --notidy which disables all formatting and causes the input to be
copied unchanged.
- Added prefilters and postfilters in the call to the Tidy.pm module.
- The starting indentation level of sections of code entabbed with -et=n
is correctly guessed if it was also produced with the same -et=n flag. This
keeps the indentation stable on repeated formatting passes within an editor.
Thanks to Sam Kington and Glenn.
- Functions with prototype '&' had a space between the function and opening peren.
- Patch to never put spaces around a bare word in braces beginning with ^
