3 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
4 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class (t0m)
6 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
7 has been made private (t0m)

19 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
20 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
21 warning on recent Moose versions.
22 - Add delta documentation
23 - Clean up recursion errors
24 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
25 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
27 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
28 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended (t0m)
30 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
31 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
32 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
33 tries to chain to itself (t0m)
35 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
36 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with (t0m)
37 - Tests for this (radek)
38 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
39 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
40 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly (t0m)
41 - Tests for this (radek)
42 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
43 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
44 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
45 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
47 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
48 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
49 spurious warnings (t0m)
50 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme (t0m)
52 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
53 in production versions (t0m)

57 the restarter process (t0m)
58 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
59 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed (t0m)
60 - Tests for this (t0m)
61 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
62 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
63 immutable restart correctly. (t0m)
64 - Tests for this (t0m)
65 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
66 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm (t0m)
67 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
68 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
69 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test (rafl)
70 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment (rafl)

81 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
82 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected. (rafl)

84 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
85 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
87 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
88 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.

123 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
124 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
125 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
126 it isn't a hashref (t0m)
127 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
128 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
129 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL) (t0m)

133 - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller (t0m)
134 - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix
135 test for Catalyst-Engine-Apache (t0m)
136 - Bump version of MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast (t0m)
137 - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
138 breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast

141 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors (t0m)

154 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server. (t0m)
155 - Tests for this (t0m)
156 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
157 test sync for engines easier (t0m)

159 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
160 components (Florian Ragwitz)
161 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional (Florian Ragwitz)
162 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
163 rather than the stringified ref. (t0m)

302 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
303 throw warnings for two reasons:
304 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
305 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance

308 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
309 method with a regex as the argument

352 - Allow multiple restart directories and added option to follow
