1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
4 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
5 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
6 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
7 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
8 as there is no recommended alternative.
9 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
10 fallback for fully qualified component names.
11 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
14 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
15 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
17 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
20 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
21 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
22 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
23 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
25 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
26 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
27 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
30 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
31 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
34 Refactoring / cleanups:
35 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
36 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
37 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
38 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
39 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
41 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
44 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
45 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
46 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
47 now loaded at most once + tests.
48 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
49 is returned to 'actions'.
50 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
51 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
53 Refactoring / cleanups:
54 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
55 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
58 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
59 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
60 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
62 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
65 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
66 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
69 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
72 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
73 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
74 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
76 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
79 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
80 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
81 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
83 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
86 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
87 application class immutable without that option.
88 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
89 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
91 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
92 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
93 (hopefully) future versions.
94 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
95 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
97 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
99 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
100 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
101 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
102 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
103 Request-URI of the Request-Line
105 Refactoring / cleanups:
106 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
107 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
108 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
109 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
110 known issues with 5.8.3.
111 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
112 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
115 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
116 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
117 for the controller namespace
118 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
119 expand_component_module (rjbs)
120 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
121 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
122 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
123 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
125 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
126 frontend port (jshirley)
127 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
131 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
132 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
133 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
134 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
137 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
140 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
141 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
142 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
144 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
145 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
146 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
147 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
148 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
149 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
153 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
154 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
155 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
158 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
161 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
162 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
164 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
165 in some environments.
166 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
167 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
168 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
169 except works correctly with closures.
170 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
171 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
172 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
174 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
175 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
176 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
179 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
180 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
181 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
182 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
183 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
184 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
186 Refactoring / cleanups:
187 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
188 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
189 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
190 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
192 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
193 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
194 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
196 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
197 again in Catalyst::Test
199 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
202 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
203 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
206 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
209 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
210 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
211 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
213 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
216 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
217 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
220 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
221 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
225 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
226 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
227 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
228 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
229 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
231 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
232 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
233 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
234 controller naming. (random)

236 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
237 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
238 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
239 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
241 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
243 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
244 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
245 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
247 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
248 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
249 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
250 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
251 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
252 to report 'Unknown Error'
253 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
254 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
255 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
256 parse_on_demand is on

265 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
266 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no

269 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
270 Test::Aggregate is available.
271 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
272 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
273 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
274 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
275 disabling functionality from base controllers.

283 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
284 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
285 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
286 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
287 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
288 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
289 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
291 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
292 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
293 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
294 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
295 configuration in your application.
297 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
298 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
299 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
301 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
302 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class

309 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
311 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component

319 warning on recent Moose versions.
320 - Add delta documentation
321 - Clean up recursion errors
322 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
323 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
325 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
326 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
328 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
329 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
330 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
331 tries to chain to itself
333 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
334 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
335 - Tests for this (radek)
336 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
337 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
338 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
339 - Tests for this (radek)
340 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
341 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
342 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
343 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to

346 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
348 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
350 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
351 in production versions
352 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
353 the correct metaclass
354 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
355 the restarter process
356 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
357 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
359 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
360 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
361 immutable restart correctly.
363 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
364 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
365 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically

377 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
378 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
379 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
380 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
381 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
382 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
383 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
385 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
386 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
387 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
390 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.

443 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
445 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
446 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
448 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
449 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later

453 test sync for engines easier
454 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
455 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
457 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
458 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher

472 - Make log levels additive, and add documentation and tests
473 for the setup_log method, which previously had none.
474 Sewn together by from two patches provided by David E. Wheeler
475 - Switch an around 'new' in Catalyst::Controller to a BUILDARGS
476 method as it's much neater and more obvious what is going on

602 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
603 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
604 method with a regex as the argument
