The C<-CA> flag (or equivalently, the C<PERL_UNICODE=A> environment setting)
|
||||
tells perl to treat command-line arguments as UTF-8 strings. (See L<perlrun>
|
||||
for details.) However, this did not extend to the global variables implicitly
|
||||
created by the C<-s> option:
|
||||
|
||||
$ perl -CA -s -e 'printf "%vx\n", $_ for $foo, $ARGV[0]' -- -foo=é é
|
||||
c3.a9
|
||||
e9
|
||||
|
||||
Here C<$foo> would end up containing the two-byte UTF-8 representation of
|
||||
"LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE", but C<$ARGV[0]> would contain a single
|
||||
codepoint corresponding to U+00E9.
|
||||
|
||||
This has been fixed: If C<-CA> is in effect, options parsed by C<-s> are
|
||||
treated as UTF-8, too. In the example above, C<$foo> and C<$ARGV[0]> now both
|
||||
contain C<chr(0xE9)>. [GH #23377]

We have long claimed to support identifiers up to about 255 characters
|

long. However this was actually true only for identifiers that
|
||||
consisted of only ASCII characters. The real upper limit was as few as
