Just my two cents, but whenever i see when True {...} I expect $_
to be true, so that i can do when True and when False. And I if see
when followed by a comparison i expect the when to be true when the
comparison is true. To me its kind of like, if you only have one
operand then use the given subject, if you have two operands then they
don't need a subject. So the given $_ topic would fill in only in the
cases where you needed a topic. Of course that might not realy make
since for given/when and its smart matching magic. But then maybe we
just don't want to be able to say when $a == $b and thats just
invalid since it would be clearer written as an if.

Parrot 0.4.5 Released!
On behalf of the Parrot team I'm proud to announce another monthly release of Parrot. I'd like to thank all involved people as well as our sponsors for supporting us. What is Parrot? Parrot is a virtual machine aimed at running Perl6 and other dynamic languages, see http://www.parrotcode.org/ for more information. Parrot 0.4.5 changes and news - unicode subroutine names - hierarchical class names finished including MMD support - new dotnet CLI to PIR translator - improved TGE code and compiler - APL: vector handling - new STM branch in the svn repository - the usual bugfixes and enhancements After some pause you can grab it from http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/L/LT/LTOETSCH/parrot-0.4.5.tar.gz. As parrot is still in steady development we recommend that you just get the latest and best from SVN by following the directions at http://www.parrotcode.org/source.html Turn your web browser towards http://www.parrotcode.org/ for more information about Parrot, get involved, and: Have fun! leo
Re: [perl #38146] [TODO] OS.pmc - file copy 38146
Hi Leo, So do we need to change os.pmc to leverage this infrastructure and get rid of the platform specific code( currently implemented via IFDEF) from os.pmc? -Vishal On 6/19/06, Leopold Toetsch [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Jun 18, 2006, at 2:02, Vishal Soni via RT wrote: I am just wonedring if it would make sense to seperate out code for each supported operating system under a directory structure.

I think that all platform-specific code should be factored out, i.e. the existing methods should call some platform functions. leo
