XML::Validator::Schema calls 1.02 on that

[ #15015 ]

XML::Validator::Schema 1.02 is on CPAN now. This is a big release, adding support for composing sequence and choice groups as well as a mostly complete simpleType system.

This release also includes a solution to the problem I worried about on PerlMonks. Despite failing to find code that did anything similar I think I managed to muddle through. Regexes are truely strange and wonderful creatures... Check out the madness!

Coming up in 1.03: caching for schema parse trees! I've got a version in CVS now that speeds up the test suite by around 3x.

PS: Did you know that Storable fails to properly serialize Regexp objects produced by qr//? And not only that, it does so silently! I didn't, but after a frusterating attempt at using Storable to cache my Regexp-containing parse trees, I do now.

Did you know that Storable fails to properly serialize Regexp objects produced by qr//?

Has this been reported?

Unreported bugs just don't exist, and aren't going to get fixed.

Sadly I can't guarantee that reported bugs are going to get fixed (or even understood) but I can assure you that unreported bugs get preferential treatment in the "being ingored forever" stakes.

  Done. Thanks for the reminder. I'm usually pretty good about that sort of thing...

It fixes the problem so that Regexp's are Storable...

  I did look at that, but it's 5.008 only. I'm using 5.6.1 in an application where I need XML::Validator::Schema.

    Hmm, it should be only 5.8.0 only because of our $VERSION in Regexp::Storable. I'll do a release shortly to fix that.

      our() is supported in 5.6.x... If you change it require 5.6.0 I'll be happy to give it a try.
