1 Revision history for Perl extension Class-MOP.
5 * The __INSTANCE__ parameter to Class::MOP::Class::new_object now enforces
6 that the passed in reference is blessed into the correct class (by dying if
7 it's not) (doy, jhallock).
11 [GRRR< FUCKING STEVAN@]
13 * Re-release 0.99 as 1.00.
15 0.99 Thu, Mar 25, 2010
19 * Fix typo in Class::MOP::Attribute (Franck Cuny).
21 0.98 Mon, Jan 18, 2010
25 * Added Class::MOP::Class->rebless_instance_back, which does the inverse of
26 rebless_instance (doy, rafl).
28 0.97_01 Mon, Jan 4, 2010
32 * Internal refactorings to move shared behavior into new "mixin" classes. This
33 made adding some new features to Moose much easier. (Dave Rolsky)
35 0.97 Fri, Dec 18, 2009
36 * No code changes, just packaging fixes to make this distro installable.
38 0.96 Fri, Dec 18, 2009
40 - Fixed t/082_get_code_info.t so it passes with bleadperl. (Dave Rolsky)
41 - Add XS & C files to no tabs check (Dave Rolsky)
42 - Convert all tests to done_testing. (Florian Ragwitz)
44 0.95 Wed, Nov 19, 2009
46 - Make is_class_loaded without any arguments fail loudly
48 - Make load_class throw more standard error messages when loading single
49 modules (nothingmuch).
52 - Stop add_method from behaving differently under the debugger
57 - Any method which takes a method name as an argument now allows names
58 which are false (like "0"), but the name must be defined and not be an
59 empty string. (Dave Rolsky)
62 - Deprecated get_attribute_map as a public method. You can use a
63 combination of get_attribute_list and get_attribute instead. (Dave
66 0.94 Tue, Sep 22, 2009
67 * Class::MOP::Attribute
68 - Introduce set_raw_value and get_raw_value, side effect free variants
69 of {get,set}_value. These don't do anything useful in Class::MOP but
70 have different behavior that set_value and get_value for Moose
71 attributes. (nothingmuch)
73 0.93 Tue, Sep 15, 2009
75 - The load_class function just returns true, since it's return value was
76 confusing (either a metaclass object or a class name). It either loads
77 a class or dies trying. In the future, this may change to not return
78 anything, since there's no point in checking its return
79 value. Addresses RT #45883. (Dave Rolsky)
81 * Class::MOP::Class::Trait::Immutable
82 - When throwing an error because of an immutable method, include that
83 method's name. Addresses RT #49680. (Shawn M Moore)
86 - Adding the same sub reference to multiple packages failed to update
87 the method map properly. RT #48985. Reported by Paul Mooney. (Dave
89 - The get_method_map method is now private (and called as
90 _full_method_map or _method_map). The public version is available as a
91 deprecated method. (Dave Rolsky)
93 0.92_01 Thu, Sep 10, 2009
95 - Backwards compatibility tweaks to XS for 5.8.1. (Goro Fuji)
98 - Make sure XS code handles magical scalars correctly. (Goro Fuji)
101 - Documented the immutable_options method, which is useful if you need
102 to make a class mutable temporarily, and then nede to restore
103 immutability. (Dave Rolsky)
106 - Deprecated features have been moved to their own module,
107 Class::MOP::Deprecated, for easier deprecation management. (Goro Fuji)
109 0.92 Thu Aug 13, 2009
111 * Class::MOP::Package
112 - Move get_method_map and its various scaffolding into Package. (hdp)
115 - Allow Class::MOP::Method->wrap to take a Class::MOP::Method object as
116 the first argument, rather than just a coderef. (doy)
118 * Class::MOP::Attribute
120 - Allow attribute names to be false (while still requiring them to be
123 0.91 Wed Jul 29, 2009
124 * Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
125 - Fixing variable usage issues with the patch from previous
126 version, not properly using lexicals in the for
129 0.90 Tue Jul 21, 2009
130 Japan Perl Association has sponsored Goro Fuji to improve startup
131 performance of Class::MOP and Moose. These enhancements may break
132 backwards compatibility if you're doing (or using) complex
133 metaprogramming, so, as always, test your code!
134 http://blog.perlassociation.org/2009/07/jpa-sponsors-moose-class-mop-work.html
138 - Anonymous classes were not completely destroyed when they went
139 out of scope, leading to a memory leak. RT #47480. (Goro
143 - The get_method, has_method, and add_method methods no longer
144 use get_method_map. Method objects are instantiated
145 lazily. This significantly improves Class::MOP's load
149 - Inline fewer metaclass-level constructors since the ones we
150 have are perfectly fine. This reduces the number of string
153 * Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
154 - If a method modifier set $_, this caused the modifier to blow
155 up, because of some weird internals. (Jeremy Stashewsky)
159 * Class::MOP::Class::Immutable::Trait
160 - Made the Trait act like a role with a bunch of "around"
161 modifiers, rather than sticking it in the inheritance
162 hierarchy. This fixes various problems that caused with
163 metaclass compatibility, which broke Fey::ORM.
166 - Allow a blessed code reference as the method body. Fixes a
167 problem interaction with MooseX::Types. (ash)
169 * Class::MOP::Instance
170 - add inline version of rebless_instance_structure. (doy)
171 - change inline_slot_access to use single quotes (gphat)
173 0.88 Tue, Jun 23, 2009
175 - Moved the __INSTANCE__ parameter to _construct_instance from
177 - Fixed some issues involving metaclasses of metaclasses and
180 0.87 Sun, Jun 21, 2009
182 - Made sure to always local-ize $@ and $SIG{__DIE__} before
183 calling an eval. Fixes RT #45973.
186 - Synced docs about immutability with the current reality (which
187 changed back in 0.82_01)
188 - Removed the immutable_transformer method, which had been
189 returning undef since 0.82_01 anyway.
192 - Got rid of tests which needed Moose and improved testing of
193 constructor/destructor inlining warnings. Fixes RT #47119.
195 0.86 Tue, Jun 16, 2009
197 - If you redefined a subroutine at runtime and then wrapped it
198 with a method modifier, the modifier could in some cases wrap
199 the original version of the subroutine. Fixes RT #46957.
202 - make_immutable issues a warning instead of overriding an
203 existing DESTROY method (Dylan William Hardison). Fixes RT
206 0.85 Sat, Jun 6, 2009
207 * Class::MOP::Attribute
208 - Allow default values to be Class::MOP::Methods. (Florian
210 - Test the above. (Rhesa Rozendaal)
211 - Tweak original commit so the intent matches the accepted
212 behavior (Nicholas Perez)
215 - Localize $SIG{__DIE__} inside _try_load_one_class (Sartak)
218 - Add direct_subclasses method (Sartak)
219 - Tests for subclasses and direct_subclasses (Sartak)
220 - subname is no longer used unconditionally in add_method, but
221 only if the code reference's name is '__ANON__' (nothingmuch)
222 - Add a hook for _superclasses_updated (Sartak)
225 - Remove long, old warning about possibly outdated modules
228 0.84 Tue, May 12, 2009
230 - Depend on Text::Exception 0.27 to avoid failing tests ond old
234 - Made is_class_loaded a little stricter. It was reporting that
235 a class was loaded if it merely had an @ISA variable in its
236 stash. Now it checks that the @ISA var has elements in it.
237 - Deprecate in_global_destruction and subname re-exporting
241 - Explicitly use Devel::GlobalDestruction and Sub::Name
244 * Class::MOP::Package
245 - Disable prototype mismatch warnings for add_package_symbol.
248 - Add test for finding methods from $meta->name->meta before immutable,
251 0.83 Mon, April 27, 2009
253 - Fix segfault when calling get_method_map on a metaclass for an empty
256 0.82_02 Fri, April 24, 2009
257 * Class::MOP::Method::Inlined
258 - Don't inline if the expected method is not defined at all (happens with
259 e.g. Moose::Object::_new is the expected method due to an overridden
262 - Some tests were trying to load Class::MOP::Immutable, which
263 was removed in 0.82_01.
265 0.82_01 Thu, April 23, 2009
266 * Class::MOP::Immutable (and others)
267 - Refactor the immutability system to use a pre-defined class
268 for the immutable metaclass of Class::MOP::Class::Immutable::$class
269 - Rather than generating methods into this class every time, use
270 a Trait (basic mixin) to supply the cached methods
271 - Remove the hack that returns the mutable metaclass for
272 metacircularity in order to provide consistent meta-metaclasses
273 for the Moose compatibility handling code
274 (mst broke it, nothingmuch fixed it)
276 0.82 Mon, April 20, 2009
278 - The deprecation wrappers for some renamed methods were not
279 passing arguments to the new method. (nothingmuch)
281 * Class::MOP::Immutable
282 - Warn during immutablization if the local class provides its own
283 constructor, to parallel the warning in Moose when a superclass
284 provides its own constructor (doy)
286 0.81 Tue, April 7, 2009
289 * Class::MOP::Instance
290 * Class::MOP::Attribute
291 * Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
292 * Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
293 - Include stack traces in the deprecation warnings introduced in
294 0.80_01. (Florian Ragwitz)
297 - Avoid c compiler warnings by declaring some unused function
298 arguments. (Florian Ragwitz)
300 0.80_01 Sun, April 5, 2009
302 - Make sure to preserve any compiler flags already defined in
303 Config.pm. Patch by Vincent Pit. RT #44739.
305 * Many methods have been renamed with a leading underscore, and a
306 few have been deprecated entirely. The methods with a leading
307 underscore are considered "internals only". People writing
308 subclasses or extensions to Class::MOP should feel free to
309 override them, but they are not for "public" use.
312 - construct_class_instance => _construct_class_instance (use new_object)
313 - construct_instance => _construct_instance (use new_object)
314 - check_metaclass_compatibility => _check_metaclass_compatibility
315 - create_meta_instance => _create_meta_instance (use get_meta_instance)
316 - clone_instance => _clone_instance (use clone_object)
317 - compute_all_applicable_methods is deprecated, use get_all_methods
318 - compute_all_applicable_attributes is deprecated, use get_all_attributes
320 - Class::MOP::Instance
321 - bless_instance_structure is deprecated and will be removed
325 - create has been renamed to _instantiate_module. This method
326 does not construct an object, it evals some code that
327 creates the relevant package in Perl's symbol table.
329 - Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
330 - initialize_body => _initialize_body (this is always called
331 when an object is constructed)
332 - /(generate_.*_method(?:_inline)?)/ => '_' . $1
334 - Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
335 - initialize_body => _initialize_body (this is always called
336 when an object is constructed)
337 - /(generate_constructor_method(?:_inline)?)/ => '_' . $1
338 - attributes => _attributes
339 - meta_instance => _meta_instance
341 0.80 Wed, April 1, 2009
343 - Call user_class->meta in fewer places, with the eventual goal
344 of allowing the user to rename or exclude ->meta
345 altogether. Instead uses Class::MOP::class_of. (Sartak)
348 - New class_of function that should be used to retrieve a
349 metaclass. This is unlike get_metaclass_by_name in that it
350 accepts instances, not just class names. (Sartak)
353 - load_first_existing_class didn't actually load the first
354 existing class; instead, it loaded the first existing and
355 compiling class. It now throws an error if a class exists (in
356 @INC) but fails to compile. (hdp)
360 - we had some semi-buggy code that purported to provide a
361 HAS_ISAREV based on whether mro had get_isarev (due to an
362 oversight, it always returned 1). Since mro and MRO::Compat
363 have always had get_isarev, HAS_ISAREV was pointless. This
364 insight simplified the subclasses method by deleting the
365 pure-perl fallback. HAS_ISAREV is now deprecated. (Sartak)
367 0.79 Fri, March 29, 2009
368 * No changes from 0.78_02.
370 0.78_02 Thu, March 26, 2009
372 * Class::MOP::Immutable
373 - A big backwards-incompatible refactoring of the Immutable API,
374 and the make_immutable/make_mutable pieces of the Class
375 API. The core __PACKAGE__->meta->make_immutable API remains
376 the same, however, so this should only affect the most
380 - The XS code used a macro, XSPROTO, that's only in 5.10.x. This
381 has been fixed to be backwards compatible with 5.8.x.
384 - Add a hook for rebless_instance_away (Sartak)
385 - Use blessed instead of ref to get an instance's class name
386 in rebless_instance. (Sartak)
388 0.78_01 Wed, March 18, 2009
390 - Revised and reorganized all of the API documentation. All
391 classes now have (more or less) complete API documentation.
394 * Class::MOP::Instance
395 - Reblessing into a package that supports overloading wasn't
396 properly adding overload magic to the object due to a bug
397 in (at least) 5.8.8. We now use $_[1] directly which seems
398 to set the magic properly. (Sartak)
400 * Class::MOP::Attribute
401 - The process_accessors method is now private. A public alias
402 exists (and will stick around for a few releases), but it
403 warns that calling the public method is deprecated.
405 * Class::MOP::Method::Generated
406 - Removed the new and _new methods, since this is an abstract
407 base class, and all existing subclasses implement their own
411 - Stop is_class_loaded from thinking a class is loaded if it
412 only has an empty GV (Florian Ragwitz).
413 - Add a test for this (Yappo).
414 - Refactor get_all_package_symbols to allow short-circuiting
416 - Use this in is_class_loaded (Florian Ragwitz).
417 - Stop segfaulting when trying to get the name from a sub that's
418 still being compiled (Florian Ragwitz).
419 - Add tests for this (Florian Ragwitz).
420 - Prefix all public symbols with "mop_" (Florian Ragwitz).
421 - Clean up and simplify prehashing of hash keys (Florian Ragwitz).
422 - Simplify creating simple xs reader methods (Florian Ragwitz).
423 - Make everything compile with c++ compilers (Florian Ragwitz).
424 - Upgrade ppport.h from 3.14 to 3.17 (Florian Ragwitz).
427 - Remove optional test plans for tests depending on Sub::Name as
428 we have a hard dependency on Sub::Name anyway (Florian Ragwitz).
431 - Rebuild all c code if mop.h has changed (Florian Ragwitz)
433 0.78 Mon, February 23, 2009
434 * No changes from 0.77_01
436 0.77_01 Sun, February 22, 2009
438 - This package now requires its XS components. Not using
439 Sub::Name lead to different behavior and bugginess in the pure
440 Perl version of the code. A Moose test would fail when run
441 against the pure Perl version of this code.
443 * Class::MOP::Instance
444 - The inline_* methods now quote attribute names themselves, and
445 don't expect to receive a quoted value.
448 0.77 Sat, February 14, 2009
450 - Avoid assertion errors on debugging perls in is_class_loaded
454 - Fixed various corner cases where is_class_loaded incorrectly
455 returned true for a class that wasn't really loaded. (Dave
459 - Add get_all_method_names (Sartak)
460 - Add a wrapped_method_metaclass attribute (Florian Ragwitz)
462 * Class::MOP::Package
463 - Disable deprecated get_all_package_symbols in list
464 context. (Florian Ragwitz)
467 - Make sure we generate a BSD-compatible Makefile (Florian
471 - The misspelled "check_metaclass_compatability" method we've
472 kept around for backwards compat_i_bility will be removed in a
473 near future release. You've been warned.
475 0.76 Thu, January 22, 2009
476 * Class::MOP::Method::Generated
477 - Added new private methods to support code generation, which
478 are being used by Moose and can be used by MooseX
480 - Generated methods are now generated with a #line directive
481 reflecting the source of the generated method. (nothingmuch)
484 - Clarified documentation of methods that return
485 Class::MOP::Method objects. (doy)
488 - Clarified documentation of the metaclass cache methods. (Sartak)
491 - Add test showing how the xs Class::MOP::is_class_loaded can
492 be made to operate differently to the pure perl version (t0m)
494 0.75 Wed, December 31, 2008
496 - A class that was made immutable and then mutable could end up
497 sharing an immutable transformer object
498 (Class::MOP::Immutable) with other classes, leading to all
499 sorts of odd bugs. Reported by t0m. (Dave Rolsky)
501 0.74 Tue, December 25, 2008
503 - Add an xs implementation of Class::MOP::is_class_loaded (closes
504 RT#41862). Based on a patch by Goro Fuji. (Florian Ragwitz)
505 - Changed internals to make prehashing of hash keys easier and less
506 error-prone. (Florian Ragwitz)
508 - Fix documentation to show that around modifiers happen on both
509 sides of the modified method. (Dave Rolsky)
511 0.73 Tue, December 16, 2008
513 - Don't use Perl_mro_meta_init. It's not part of the public perl
514 api. Fixes failures to build on Win32 (RT #41750). (Florian
516 * t/082_get_code_info.t
517 - Add $^P &= ~0x200; (per Ovid's suggestion) in order to not
518 munger anonymous subs when under -d and so making the tests
519 succeed in that case.
521 0.72 Mon, December 8, 2008
522 * Class::MOP::Package
523 - Pass options to _new, so subclass' attributes can be
526 - In the docs, indicate that package_name and name are required
527 when calling ->wrap (Stefan O'Rear)
529 0.71_02 Fri, December 5, 2008
530 * Class::MOP::Immutable
531 - Added a new attribute, inlined_constructor, which is true if
532 the constructor was inlined.
533 * Class::MOP::Package
534 - Make get_all_package_symbols return a hash ref in scalar
535 context and deprecate calling it in list context with a
536 warning. (Florian Ragwitz)
538 - Various improvements and refactoring, making things more robust and
539 easier to maintain. (Florian Ragwitz)
541 0.71_01 Wed, December 3, 2008
543 - Add an "execute" method to invoke the body so
544 we can avoid using the coderef overload (Sartak)
545 * Class::MOP::Immutable
546 - When we memoize methods, get their results lazily
547 to remove some compile-time cost (Sartak)
548 - Small speedup from eliminating several method
551 - Some small internal tweaks to try to reduce the number of
552 times we call get_method_map when bootstrapping the MOP. This
553 might make loading Class::MOP (and Moose) a little
554 faster. (Dave Rolsky)
555 - Implemented an optional XS version of get_method_map. Mostly
556 taken from a patch by Goro Fuji (rt.cpan.org #41080), with
557 help form Florian Ragwitz. (Dave Rolsky)
558 - Make the behaviour of of get_all_package_symbols (and
559 therefore get_method_map) consistent for stub methods. Report
560 and test by Goro Fuji (rt.cpan.org #41255). (Florian Ragwitz)
562 0.71 Wed November 26, 2008
565 - Actual package creation has moved upward from
566 Class to Module so that Moose roles can share
569 0.70_01 Mon, November 19, 2008
571 - Fixes for failures with blead (Florian Ragwitz)
572 - Silenced compiler warnings (Florian Ragwitz)
574 0.70 Fri, November 14, 2008
576 - Fixed an odd corner case where the XS version of
577 get_all_package_symbols could cause a segfault. This only
578 happened with inlined constants in Perl 5.10.0 (Florian
581 0.69 Fri, November 7, 2008
582 * Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
583 - Added introspection methods for method modifiers (Dave Rolsky)
586 0.68 Fri October 24, 2008
588 - Make load_class require by file name instead of module name.
589 This stops confusing error messages when loading '__PACKAGE__'.
591 - Add load_one_class_of function to enable you to load one of a
592 list of classes, rather than having to call load_class multiple
593 times in an eval. (t0m)
595 0.67 Tue October 14, 2008
597 - Call a method on the class after setting the superclass list
598 so that we can get Perl to detect cycles before MRO::Compat
599 spirals into an infinite loop (sartak)
600 - Reported by Schwern, [rt.cpan.org #39001]
601 - In create(), pass unused options on to initialize()
602 - added test for this
604 0.66 Sat September 20, 2008
605 !! This release has an incompatible change regarding !!
606 introspection of a class's method with Class::MOP::Class !!
609 - We (us maintainers) now run all tests with XS and then without
610 XS, which should help us catch skew between the XS/pure Perl
614 ! The alias_method method has been deprecated. It now simply
615 calls add_method instead. There is no distinction between
616 aliased methods and "real" methods.
618 This means that methods added via alias_method now show up as
619 part of the class's method list/map. This is a backwards
620 incompatible change, but seems unlikely to break any
621 code. Famous last words. (Dave Rolsky)
624 - Fixed the spelling of "compatibility", but we still have a
625 "check_metaclass_compatability" method for backwards
628 0.65 Mon September 1, 2008
629 For those not following the series of dev releases, the changes
630 from 0.64 from 0.65 can mostly be summed up as a lot performance
631 improvements by nothingmuch, including new optional XS versions of
632 some methods. Also, Class::MOP now works _without_ any XS modules,
633 for sad systems without a compiler.
636 - Added name and package_name XS accessors, and make sure all
637 the XS and Perl versions work the same way. (Dave Rolsky)
640 - The XS versions of various methods just returned undef when
641 called class methods, rather than dying like the pure Perl
642 versions. (Dave Rolsky)
644 0.64_07 Fri August 29, 2008
646 - Silenced warnings that managed to break Moose tests when XS
647 was loaded. (Dave Rolsky)
648 - Some XS versions of methods were ignored because of typos in
649 MOP.xs. (Dave Rolsky)
651 0.64_06 Mon August 25, 2008
652 * Class::MOP (MOP.xs)
653 - Another MS VC++ fix, cannot declare a variable in the middle
654 of a scope (Taro Nishino).
656 0.64_05 Sun August 24, 2008
658 - None of the dev releases actually loaded the XS properly, but
659 we silently fell back to the pure Perl version of the
662 * Class::MOP (MOP.xs)
663 - Replaced some code that used functions not available on Visual
664 C++ with some Perl XS API bits (Dave Rolsky).
666 0.64_04 Sat August 23, 2008
668 - Workaround a bug in 5.8.1's goto sub (nothingmuch)
670 * pod.t and pod_coveraget.t
671 - These are no longer shipped with the tarball because of bogus
672 failures from CPAN testers. (Dave Rolsky)
674 0.64_03 Thu August 21, 2008
675 * Class::MOP::Package
676 - Some (legit) code was misparsed by earlier 5.8.x
677 releases. (nothingmuch)
680 - Fix a constant in void context warning (nothingmuch)
682 0.64_02 Thu August 21, 2008
683 * Makefile.PL and Class::MOP
684 - Explicitly require Perl 5.8.0+ (Dave Rolsky)
687 - Add missing prereqs that got lost in the switch away from
690 * Class::MOP::Instance
691 - New method - get_all_attributes (nothingmuch)
693 0.64_01 Wed August 20, 2008
695 - We now check to see if you have a compiler. If you don't, the
696 module installs without some XS bits, but will work the same
697 as with XS. This should make it easier to install on platforms
698 without a compiler (like Windows). (Dave Rolsky)
701 - Perl 6 style attribute naming replaced with sane style ('methods', not
702 '%!methods'). These changes should not impact any existing API uses.
706 - Quite a number of optimizations based on profiling, including
707 allowing constructors to take hash references instead of
708 hashes, duplicating some frequently used code in XS, and
709 making constructors immutable. These changes should not impact
710 any existing API uses. (nothingmuch)
713 - Constructors now respect the meta attributes of their subclasses,
714 facilitating MOP extensibility. More related changes will happen in the
715 next several releases. (nothingmuch)
718 - New method - get_all_methods, replaces the deprecated
719 compute_all_applicable_methods. get_all_attributes provided for
720 consistency (nothingmuch)
721 - New method - wrap_method was refactored out of get_method_map
723 - New API for meta instance invalidation - invalidate_meta_instance,
724 invalidate_meta_instances, add_dependent_meta_instance,
725 remove_dependent_meta_instance, called automatically when attribute
726 definitions change and allows notification of dependent subclasses.
729 0.64 Sun August 3, 2008
730 * Class::MOP::Immutable
731 - fixing subtle edge case in immutable when you
733 - clean up option processing (nothingmuch)
735 * Class::MOP::Instance
736 - inlined initialize slot didn't match
737 non-inlined (nothingmuch)
739 0.63 Mon July 7, 2008
741 - load_class will initialize a metaclass even if
742 the class is already loaded (sartak)
743 - load_class now returns the metaclass instance
744 instead of just 1 (sartak)
747 - better error messages (sartak and Dave Rolsky)
749 0.62 Wed June 18, 2008
750 - in is_class_loaded, recognize scalar references (as opposed to globs) in
751 the symbol table as methods (these are optimized constant subs)
753 0.61 Fri. June 13, 2008
754 - Okay, lets give this another try and see if PAUSE
755 recognizes it correct this time.
757 0.60 Thurs. Jun 12, 2008
758 - Fixed a version number issue by bumping all modules
761 0.59 Thurs. Jun 12, 2008
762 !! Several fixes resulting in yet another 25-30% speedup !!
765 - now stores the instance of the instance
766 metaclass to avoid needless recomputation
767 and deletes it when the cache is blown
768 - introduce methods to query Class::MOP::Class for
769 the options used to make it immutable as well as
770 the proper immutable transformer. (groditi)
772 * Class::MOP::Package
773 - {add, has, get, remove}_package_symbol all
774 now accept a HASH ref argument as well as the
775 string. All internal usages now use the HASH
779 - MOP.xs does sanity checks on the coderef
781 - is_class_loaded check now uses code that
782 was improved in Moose's ClassName type
784 - nonsensical (undef, empty, reference) class
785 names now throw a more direct error in
787 - tests for this and other aspects of
793 Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
794 Class::MOP::Attribute
795 - switched usage of reftype to ref because
798 0.58 Thurs. May 29, 2008
799 (late night release engineering)--
801 - fixing the version is META.yml, no functional
802 changes in this release
804 0.57 Wed. May 28, 2008
805 !! Several speedups resulting in 20-25% speedups !!
806 || (thanks to konobi, groditi, mst & CataMoose) !!
809 - made get_method_map use list_all_package_symbols
810 instead of manually grabbing each symbol
811 - streamlining &initialize somewhat, since it gets
814 * Class::MOP::Package
815 - made {get, has}_package_symbol not call
817 - inlining a few calls to &name with
818 direct HASH access key access
819 - added get_all_package_symbols to fetch
820 a HASH of items based on a type filter
821 similar to list_all_package_symbols
822 - added tests for this
825 Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
826 Class::MOP::Method::Generated
827 Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
828 - added more descriptive error message to help
829 keep people from wasting time tracking an error
830 that is easily fixed by upgrading.
832 * Class::MOP::Immutable
833 - Don't inline a destructor unless the user actually
835 - added tests for this
837 0.56 Saturday, May 24, 2008
839 - we now get the &check_package_cache_flag
840 function from MRO::Compat
841 - All XS based functionality now has a
842 Pure Perl alternative
843 - the CLASS_MOP_NO_XS environment variable
844 can now be used to force non-XS versions
847 * Class::MOP::Attribute
848 - add has_read_method and has_write_method
849 - get_{read,write}_method_ref now wraps the
850 anon-sub ref in the method metaclass when
852 - added tests for this
854 * Class::MOP::Immutable
855 - added the ability to "wrap" methods when
856 making the class immutable
859 - now handling the edge case of ->meta->identifier
860 dying by wrapping add_package_symbol to specifically
861 allow for it to work.
862 - added tests for this
864 * Class::MOP::Attribute
866 Class::MOP::Immutable
867 - any time a method meta object is constructed
868 we make sure to pass the correct package and
869 method name information
872 Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
873 Class::MOP::Method::Generated
874 Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
875 Class::MOP::Method::Consructor
876 - the &wrap constructor method now requires that a
877 'package_name' and 'name' attribute are passed. This
878 is to help support the no-XS version, and will
879 throw an error if these are not supplied.
880 - all these classes are now bootstrapped properly
881 and now store the package_name and name attributes
884 ~ Build.PL has been removed since the
885 Module::Install support has been removed
887 0.55 Mon. April 28, 2008
888 - All classes now have proper C3 MRO support
889 - added MRO::Compat as a dependency to allow
890 for the C3 MRO support to Just Work in all
894 - rebless_instance now returns the instance
895 it has just blessed, this is mostly to
897 - set the attr correctly in rebless_instance
898 when it has no init_arg
899 - tweaked &linear_isa and &class_precedence_list
900 to support c3 classes.
902 0.54 Fri. March, 14, 2008
905 - making sure that load_class never gets
906 passed a value from @_ or $_ to squash
907 Ovid's bug (http://use.perl.org/~Ovid/journal/35763)
910 - make_{immutable,mutable} now return 1
912 - improved error handling in ->create method
913 - rebless_instance now takes extra params which
914 will be used to populate values
915 - added tests for this
918 - localizing the Data::Dumper configurations so
919 that it does not pollute others (RT #33509)
925 Class::MOP::Attribute
926 - these classes no longer define their own ->meta,
927 but instead just inherit from Class::MOP::Object
929 * Class::MOP::Instance
930 Class::MOP::Immutable
931 - these classes now inherit from Class::MOP::Object
934 - fixed the filename length on several
935 test files so we install on VMS better
937 - fixed incorrect use of catdir when it
938 should be catfile (RT #32385)
940 0.53 Thurs. Feb. 14, 1008
941 ~~ several doc. fixes and updates ~~
944 Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
945 Class::MOP::Attribute
946 - making init_arg accept an undefined value
947 to indicate that no constructor args can
948 be passed (thanks to nothingmuch)
949 - added tests for this
950 - added attribute initializer attribute (rjbs)
953 - making this use the new init_arg => undef
954 feature instead of the silly hack from
955 before (thanks to nothingmuch)
957 0.52 Tues. Jan. 22, 2008
959 - fixed bug in rebless_instance
962 * Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
963 - removed assumptions about the existence of
966 0.51 Mon. Jan. 14, 2008
967 ~~~ some misc. doc. fixes ~~~
968 ~~ updated copyright dates ~~
971 - now sets the IS_RUNNING_ON_5_10
972 constant so that we can take advantage
973 of some of the nice bits of 5.10
976 - uses the IS_RUNNING_ON_5_10 flag to
977 optimize the &linearized_isa method
978 and avoid the hack/check for circular
979 inheritence in &class_precedence_list
980 - added rebless_instance method (Sartak)
981 - added tests for this
983 * Class::MOP::Immutable
984 - the immutable class now keeps track of
985 the transformer which immutablized it
987 * Class::MOP::Instance
988 - added rebless_instance_structure method (Sartak)
989 - added tests for this
991 0.50 Fri. Dec. 21, 2007

994 transformation arguments are saved
996 - added tests for this
998 * Class::MOP::Immutable
999 - fixed a bug (see above)
1001 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1004 0.49 Fri. Dec. 14, 2007
1005 !! Class::MOP now loads 2 x faster !!
1006 !! with XS speedups (thanks konobi) !!
1009 - removed the dependency on B
1010 - added two XS functions (thanks konobi)
1011 - get_code_info($code) which replaces all
1012 the B fiddling we were doing with
1013 faster/leaner XS level fiddling
1014 - check_package_cache_flag($pkg_name) which
1015 returns the PL_sub_generation variable to
1016 be used to help manage method caching.
1019 In 5.10 or greater this will actually
1020 use the mro::get_pkg_gen instead to give
1021 even more accurate caching information.
1022 blblack++ for that stuff :)
1025 - added the &subclasses method (thanks rlb)
1026 - added the update_package_cache_flag and
1027 reset_package_cache_flag which help keep
1028 track of when we need to re-fetch the
1030 - Several small improvements to take advantage
1031 of the new method map caching features
1033 0.48 Mon. Nov. 26, 2007
1034 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1035 - fixed get_read/write_method to handle the
1036 HASH ref case, which makes the
1037 get_read/write_method_ref handle it too.
1038 - added more tests for this
1040 0.47 Sat. Nov. 24, 2007
1041 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1042 - fixed misspelling in get_write_method_ref
1043 - added more tests for this
1045 0.46 Fri. Nov. 23, 2007
1047 - added the linearized_isa method instead of constantly
1048 pruning duplicate classes (this will be even more
1049 useful in the 5.10-compat version coming soon)
1051 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1052 - added the get_read_method_ref and get_write_method_ref
1053 methods which allow you to retrieve a CODE ref which
1054 can always be used to read or write an attribute.
1056 0.45 Thurs. Nov. 13, 2007
1057 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1058 - Fix error message on confess (groditi)
1060 0.44 Thurs. Nov. 13, 2007
1061 - Apparently I didn't make dist correctly (groditi)
1063 0.43 Thurs. Nov. 13, 2007
1065 - Add support for the 'builder' attribute (groditi)
1068 - optimise metaclass-already-exists check in
1069 construct_class_instance (groditi)
1070 - duplicate check into initialize to save a
1071 call through (groditi)
1073 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1074 - Add support for the 'builder' attribute (groditi)
1075 - Make predicates check for the existence of a value, not whether
1076 it is defined (groditi)
1078 * Class::MOP::Instance
1079 - Make predicates check for the existence of a value, not whether
1080 it is defined (groditi)
1082 * Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
1083 - made this a subclass of Class::MOP::Method::Generated
1084 - removed the relevant attributes
1086 * Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
1087 - fixed the cached values we had to be more sane
1088 - made this a subclass of Class::MOP::Method::Generated
1089 - fixed generated constructor so it properly handles
1091 - added tests for this
1092 - added the option to allow for both inlined and
1093 non-inlined constructors.
1094 - Update inlined methods for builder and predicate changes (groditi)
1096 * Class::MOP::Method::Generated
1097 - added this class as an abstract base for the
1098 Class::MOP::Method::{Constructor,Accessor} classes
1099 - added tests for this
1102 - Alter tests (005, 014 020, 021) for new builder addition (groditi)
1103 - Tests for new predicate behavior (and corrections to old tests) (groditi)
1106 - Update ArrayRef based class example to work with predicate changes
1108 0.42 Mon. July 16, 2007
1109 !!! Horray for mst, he fixed it !!!
1111 * Class::MOP::Package
1112 - alter symbol table handling to deal with 5.8.x and 5.9.x
1115 - Get rid of the crappy workaround from 0.40/41
1117 0.41 Sun. July 15, 2007
1119 Arghh!!! My TODO test didn't work, so I handle
1120 it manually now so that people can use this
1121 with 5.9.5/bleadperl without issue.
1123 0.40 Tues, July 3, 2007
1125 ~ marked a test in 003_methods.t as TODO
1126 for perl 5.9.5 (this test is irrelvant to
1127 the module functioning on 5.9.5 for the most
1130 0.39 Mon. June 18, 2007
1131 * Class::MOP::Immutable
1132 - added make_metaclass_mutable + docs (groditi)
1133 - removed unused variable
1134 - added create_immutable_transformer
1135 necessary for sane overloading of immutable behavior
1136 - tests for this (groditi)
1139 - Immutability can now be undone,
1140 added make_mutable + tests + docs (groditi)
1141 - Massive changes to the way Immutable is done
1142 for details see comments next to make_immutable
1143 This fixes a bug where custom metaclasses broke
1144 when made immutable. We are now keeping one immutable
1145 metaclass instance per metaclass instead of just one
1146 to prevent isa hierarchy corruption. Memory use will go
1147 up, but I suspect it will be neglible.
1148 - New tests added for this behavior. (groditi)
1150 0.38 Thurs. May 31, 2007
1151 ~~ More documentation updates ~~
1153 * Class::MOP::Package
1154 - we now deal with stub methods properly
1155 - added tests for this
1156 - fixed some tests failing on 5.9.5 (thanks blblack)
1158 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1159 - added get_read_method and get_write_method
1160 thanks to groditi for this code, tests
1162 - added tests and POD for this
1165 - fixed RT issue #27329, clone object now
1166 handles undef values correctly.
1167 - added tests for this
1168 - Corrected anon-class handling so that they
1169 will not get reaped when instances still
1170 exist which need to reference them. This is
1171 the correct behavior, hopefully this is an
1172 obscure enough feature that there are not too
1173 many work arounds out in the wild.
1174 - added tests for this by groditi
1175 - updated docs to explain this
1178 - load custom metaclasses automatically (thanks groditi)
1179 - added tests for this behavior
1181 0.37 Sat. March 10, 2007
1182 ~~ Many, many documentation updates ~~
1185 - added &load_class and &is_class_loaded
1186 - added tests and docs for these
1188 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1189 - default now checks the instance with defined to
1190 avoid setting off bool-overloads (found by Carl Franks)
1194 - bad name in a test, causing meaningless failuress.
1199 ~~ GLOBAL CHANGES ~~
1200 - All attribute names are now consistent and follow Perl 6
1201 style (prefixed with the sigil, and ! as the twigil for
1202 private attrs). This should not affect any code, unless
1203 you broke encapsulation, in which case, it is your problem
1206 !! Class::MOP::Class::Immutable has been removed
1208 * Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
1209 - this has been moved out of Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
1210 and is a proper subclass of Class::MOP::Method now.
1213 - this module now uses Class::MOP::Immutable for the
1214 immutable transformation instead of
1215 Class::MOP::Class::Immutable.
1217 + Class::MOP::Immutable
1218 - this module now controls the transformation from a mutable
1219 to an immutable version of the class. Docs for this will
1220 be coming eventually.
1223 0.36 Sun. Nov. 5, 2006
1225 - added a few 'no warnings' lines to keep annoying
1226 (and meaningless) warnings from chirping during
1230 - some more bootstrapping is now done on the new
1233 * Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
1235 - constructor generation is now handled by
1236 the Class::MOP::Method::Constructor class
1238 * Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
1239 - created this to handle constructor generation
1240 in Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
1242 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1244 - attributes now delegate to the
1245 Class::MOP::Method::Accessor to generate
1248 * Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
1249 - all accessor generation functions from
1250 Class::MOP::Attribute have been moved here
1252 0.35 Sat. Sept. 30, 2006
1254 * scripts/class_browser.pl
1255 - initial prototype of a class browser, more
1256 on this to come. Comments and patches are
1260 - All Class::MOP::* accessors are no longer
1261 re-generated in the bootstrap, instead
1262 they are aliased from the originals
1263 - fixed tests to reflect
1264 - added Class::MOP::Method (and its subclasses)
1266 - adjusted tests for this
1267 - added the Class::MOP::Instance attributes
1270 * Class::MOP::Method
1272 - methods are no longer blessed CODE refs
1273 but are actual objects which can be CODE-ified
1274 - adjusted tests to compensate
1275 - adjusted docs for this
1278 - changed how methods are dealt with to
1279 encapsulate most of the work into the
1280 &get_method_map method
1281 - made several adjustments for the change
1282 in Class::MOP::Method
1283 - &add_attribute now checks if you are adding
1284 a duplicate name, and properly removes the
1285 old one before installing the new one
1286 - added tests for this
1287 - adjusted docs for this
1289 * Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
1290 - added caching of &get_method_map
1291 - fixed issue with &get_package_symbol
1292 - cleaned up the methods that die (patch by David Wheeler)

1295 - added filtering capabilities to
1296 &list_all_package_symbols
1298 0.34 Sat. Aug. 26, 2006
1300 - added the %:methods attribute, which like
1301 the $:version and such just actually goes
1302 to the symbol table to get it's stuff.
1303 However, it makes the MOP more complete.
1305 - The &create method now requires that all
1306 but the package name now is passed in as
1307 named parameters. See docs for more info.
1308 - updated docs and tests for this
1310 * Class::MOP::Object
1311 - added &dump method to easily Data::Dumper
1315 - cleaned up the initialization of attributes

1332 - reference values (other than CODE refs)
1333 are no longer allowed for defaults
1334 - added tests for this
1336 * Class::MOP::Package
1337 - fixed an issue with perl 5.8.1 and how it deals
1338 with symbol tables. The namespace hash is now
1339 always reloaded from the symbol table.
1341 ~ lots of misc. documentation cleanup
1343 0.32 Sat. Aug. 12, 2006
1344 + added Class::MOP::Object so that the
1345 metamodel is more complete (and closer
1346 to what Perl 6 will probably be).
1348 * Class::MOP::Package
1349 - refactored entire class, this is now
1350 the primary gateway between the metaclass
1351 and the Perl 5 symbol table
1352 - added many tests for this
1353 - this class is now a subclass of
1355 - added some tests to reflect this
1358 - refactored all symbol table access to
1359 use Class::MOP::Package methods instead
1361 * Class::MOP::Module
1362 - adding the $:version attribute in the bootstrap
1363 so that Module has a version as an attribute
1364 - see comment in Class::MOP for details
1365 - added the $:authority attribute to this module
1366 as well as an &identifier method, to bring us
1367 ever closer to Perl 6 goodness
1368 - I have added $AUTHORITY to all the modules
1369 - added tests for this

1378 slots from an instance
1379 - added tests for this

1384 - added &find_method_by_name to locate a method
1385 anywhere within the class hierarchy
1387 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1388 - added &set_value and &get_value for getting
1389 the value of the attribute for a particular
1392 0.30 Wed. July 5, 2006
1393 ---------------------------------------
1394 This is the first version of Class::MOP
1395 to introduce the immutable features which
1396 will be used for optimizating the MOP.
1397 This support should still be considered
1398 experimental, but moving towards stability.
1399 ---------------------------------------
1401 * Created Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
1403 * Created the Class::MOP::Package and
1404 Class::MOP::Module classes to more
1405 closely conform to Perl 6's meta-model
1408 - now inherits from Class::MOP::Module
1409 - several methods moved to ::Module and
1410 ::Package and now inherited
1411 - added tests for this
1413 * Class::MOP::Instance
1414 - added an is_inlinable method to allow other
1415 classes to check before they attempt to optimize.
1416 - added an inline_create_instance to inline
1417 instance creation (of course)
1420 - the Class::MOP::Class::*_package_variable
1421 methods are all now methods of Class::MOP::Package
1422 and called *_package_symbol instead. This is
1423 because they are now more general purpose symbol
1424 table manipulation methods.
1426 0.29_02 Thurs. June 22, 2006
1427 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
1429 - small change in &create so that it behaves
1430 properly when inherited
1431 - small fix to &clone_instance
1433 0.29_01 Fri. May 12, 2006
1434 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
1435 - This release works in combination with
1436 Moose 0.09_01, it is a developer release
1437 because it introduces a new instance
1438 sub-protocol and has not yet been

1447 - added new instance protocol
1448 - added tests for this
1449 - changed all relevant modules and examples

1483 and get_all_metaclass_instances method to allow
1484 access to all the cached metaclass objects.
1485 - attribute slot initialization is now the responsibility
1486 of the attribute itself, and construct_instance now
1487 delegates appropriately
1489 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1490 - attribute slot initialization is now the responsibility
1491 of the attribute itself, so we added a method for it
1492 called initialize_instance_slot

1496 initialize_instance_slot method
1498 0.24 Tues. April 11, 2006

1521 0.21 Wed. March 15, 2006
1523 - fixed issue where metaclasses are reaped from

1529 we no longer to deep-cloning by default.
1531 * Class::MOP::Method

1533 &fully_qualified_name methods, some of
1534 which were formerly private subs in
1537 * Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
1538 - allows for a method to be wrapped with
1539 before, after and around modifiers
1540 - added tests and docs for this feature

1569 - changed how clone_instance behaves, it now only does a
1570 shallow clone (see docs for more details)
1571 - added docs and tests
1573 0.10 Tues Feb. 14, 2006
1574 ** This release was mostly about writing more tests and
1575 cleaning out old and dusty code, the MOP should now
1576 be considered "ready to use".
1578 - adding more tests to get coverage up a little higher,
1579 mostly testing errors and edge cases.
1580 - test coverage is now at 99%
1583 - no longer optionally exports to UNIVERSAL::meta or
1584 creates a custom metaclass generator, use the
1585 metaclass pragma instead.
1588 - fixed a number of minor issues which came up in the
1589 error/edge-case tests
1591 * Class::MOP::Attribute

1598 0.06 Thurs Feb. 9, 2006
1600 - adding new metaclass pragma to make setting up the
1601 metaclass a little more straightforward
1604 - clean up bootstrapping to include more complete
1605 attribute definitions for Class::MOP::Class and
1606 Class::MOP::Attribute (accessors, readers, writers,
1607 etc.) ... it is redundant, but is useful meta-info
1611 - fixing minor meta-circularity issue with &meta, it
1612 is now more useful for subclasses
1613 - added &get_attribute_map as an accessor for the
1614 hash of attribute meta objects
1615 - &compute_all_applicable_attributes now just returns
1616 the attribute meta-object, rather than the HASH ref
1617 since all the same info can be gotten from the
1618 attribute meta-object itself
1619 - updated docs & tests to reflect
1620 - added &clone_instance method which does a deep clone
1621 of the instance structure created by &construct_instance
1622 - added docs & tests for this
1623 - added Clone as a dependency

1625 return blessed new or cloned instances
1626 - they handle Class::MOP::Class singletons correctly too
1627 - added docs & tests for this
1628 - cleaned up the &constuct_class_instance so that it behaves
1629 more like &construct_instance (and managed the singletons too)
1630 - added the &check_metaclass_compatibility method to make sure
1631 that metaclasses are upward and downward compatible.
1632 - added tests and docs for this
1635 - adjusting code to use the &Class::MOP::Class::meta
1637 - adjusting code to use the metaclass pragma
1639 0.05 Sat Feb. 4, 2006

1642 attributes which contain a metaclass name to use for
1643 attributes/methods respectively
1646 - bootstrap additional attributes for Class::MOP::Class
1649 - adjusted the example code and tests to use the new
1650 &attribute_metaclass feature of Class::MOP::Class
1651 - added new example:

1681 - moving examples from t/lib/* to examples/*
1682 - adding POD documentation to the examples
