[gitmo/Class-MOP.git] / Changes

Revision history for Perl extension Class-MOP.

0.06 
    * metaclass
      - adding new metaclass pragma to make assiging the 
        metaclass a little more straightforward
        
    * Class::MOP
      - clean up bootstrapping to include more complete 
        attribute definitions for Class::MOP::Class and 
        Class::MOP::Attribute (accessors, readers, writers, 
        etc.) ... it is redundant, but is useful meta-info
        to have around.

    * Class::MOP::Class
      - fixing minor meta-circularity issue with &meta, it 
        is now more useful for subclasses
      - added &get_attribute_map as an accessor for the 
        hash of attribute meta objects
      - &compute_all_applicable_attributes now just returns
        the attribute meta-object, rather than the HASH ref
        since all the same info can be gotten from the 
        attribute meta-object itself
          - updated docs & tests to reflect
      - added &clone_instance method which does a deep clone
        of the instance structure created by &construct_instance
          - added docs & tests for this
      - added &new_object and &clone_object convience methods to
        return blessed new or cloned instances
          - added docs & tests for this
          
    * examples/
      - adjusting code to use the &Class::MOP::Class::meta
        fix detailed above
      - adjusting code to use the metaclass pragma
      
0.05 Sat Feb. 4, 2006
    * Class::MOP::Class
      - added the &attribute_metaclass and &method_metaclass
        attributes which contain a metaclass name to use for 
        attributes/methods respectively
    
    * Class::MOP
      - bootstrap additional attributes for Class::MOP::Class 
        
    * examples/
      - adjusted the example code and tests to use the new
        &attribute_metaclass feature of Class::MOP::Class
      - added new example:
        - LazyClass

    - converted to Module::Build instead of EU::MM
    
    * Class::MOP::Attribute
      - refactored method generation code
      - attributes are now associated with class directly
    
    * examples/
      - refactored the InsideOut example to take advantage 
        of the Class::MOP::Attribute refactoring
      - changed example files to .pod files and hide thier
        package names from PAUSE (I don't want to own these
        namespaces really, they are just examples)
