What are the impacts (If any) by developing code in Perl 5.6.1 but running the code in Perl 5.8.x or 5.10.x?
I'm using these modules:
(For Linux)
HTTP::Request
HTTP::Response
LWP::UserAgent
Unicode::String
XML::DOM
DateTime::Format::DateManip
(For Windows)
Unicode-String
XML-DOM
DateTime-Format-DateManip (Haven't installed this yet on Windows, still looking for package)
The release notes for each version of Perl contain good summaries of all the important differences from the prior version. See, for example
perl58delta
perl581delta
perl5100delta
