Updates

• Code insight
  Control flow graph is now computed for your sources, moving plugin to the next level of intelligence. For start:
  • Unreachable code inspection.
  • Exit points highlighting.
• Code navigation
  • Grouping usages by the file structure, displaying usage context (sub, package or pod section), #1919.
  • Grouping and filtering usages by the read/write access type, including list and hash modifying subs, #1918.
  • Breadcrumbs for perl and pod files, including inline POD, by @sewi-cpan (#1875).
• Tests running, by @dimentox (#805) and @tomk3003 (#1935)
  • Run Configuration to run tests using prove with default IDE tests result UI, (requires Tap::Formatter::Camelcade).
  • Diff window for a test failure output: got/expected.
  • Parallel tests running.
  • Debugging tests (parallel running suppressed).
  • Runing tests with coverage (parallel running suppressed).
• Debugger
  • Debugger is now displays stringified objects representation if "" operator is overloaded. Additionally, you may specify custom renderer for any package, using File | Settings | Build, Execution, Deployment | Debugger | Data Views | Perl5 Type Renderers settings (requires debugger module 2019.1), by @cdalvaro (#1750).
  • New option for the remote debugging: automatic reconnection. Allows to re-connect to the process until manually stopped, by @djstauffer (#1369).
• Perl modules support
  • Readonly syntax support, by @pJunger (#1415).
  • Log::Log4perl imports support, by @giddel (#1412).
  • Support for the Pod::Weaver syntax, by @Zaitsev (#1839).
  • Improved resolve for File::Spec::Functions subs. Actual module has tricky exporting, binding OS-specific implementation in runtime. Plugin for now resolves to the Unix implementations from the File::Spec::Unix, by @grakkpl (#1393).
  • Bundle::Camelcade module introduced. Installs all modules that may may be required when working with the perl plugin. Going to be suggested for installation as alternative for particular modules, #1946.
• Automatic injections can now be configured for strings and heredocs using java regular expressions in File | Settings | Editor | Language Injections, by @Christoffen (#1878).
• Support for the POD in the __END__ block, #1896.
• Support for interpolation in match regex with (?{...}) and (??{...}), #1906.
• Truthiness inspection with quickfixes to add explicit defined or string/numeric equality check, by @RickMeasham (#1715).

Fixes

• Run Configuration editor now looks less chaotic.
• Packages list in Install package action is now split by spaces, commas and semicolons, allowing to install arbitrary version with cpan, e.g. HURRICUP/Devel-Camelcadedb-v2018.3.0.tar.gz.
• Formatting and enter handling for code in replacement regex with e modifier, #1915
• It's now possible to add perl with non-default -v response, by @EdenOaksConsulting (#1879).
• Better parsing for Types::Standard things, #1887.
• Better parsing of different try-catch syntaxes.
• Minor parser improvements: #1890, #1891, #1893, #1894, #1895, #1901, #1904, #1905, #1897.
