Subject: Incompatible return type syntax
I see that you changed the return type attribute from after the signature to before the signature, like perl 5.28 did. Plus undo that and accept it after the signature again. cperl has that syntax for 4 years already. perl6 needs the return type after the signature. It makes no sense to follow wrong and breaking p5p decisions. They should have done this in a major change, perl 7, but not perl 5. Every other language either specifies it at very first (C,C++), or behind the arguments. -- Reini Urban

Reini Thank you for your comment. I don't know what decisions is correct. Can you describe the benefit and demerit of return type after signatres or return before signatres? 2018年9月14日(金) 18:26 Reini Urban via RT <bug-SPVM@rt.cpan.org>: Show quoted text
