Howdy, It looks like darbelo++ removed the String.reverse VTABLE as part of the immutable strings in r46290, but I don't think the deprecation policy was followed.
The change is not listed in the history of DEPRECATED.pod, nor is it on http://trac.parrot.org/parrot/wiki/ParrotDeprecations or http://trac.parrot.org/parrot/wiki/ParrotDeprecationsFor2.6 . Also, the String.reverse is still documented in our PDD's. The Rakudo people would really like for a String.reverse vtable to exist, and they have no problem with it returning the reversed value, instead of it modifying in-place. They have old code that used it that has now stopped working, which is why I am sending this email. Unless someone has a very good reason why String.reverse should not return a reversed copy, I will add it back in a few days. Duke -- Jonathan "Duke" Leto [email protected] http://leto.net
