3 0.55_04 Sat August 30, 2008
4 * Moose::Util::MetaRole
5 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
6 - This simplifies the application of roles to any meta class, as
7 well as the base object class. Reimplemented metaclass traits
8 using this module. (Dave Rolsky)
10 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
11 - This a new recipe, an overview of various ways to write Moose
12 extensions (Dave Rolsky)
14 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe3
15 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe4
16 - These used to be Extending::Recipe1 and Extending::Recipe2,
19 0.55_03 Fri August 29, 2008
20 * No changes from 0.55_02 except increasing the Class::MOP
21 dependency to 0.64_07.
23 0.55_02 Fri August 29, 2008
24 * Makefile.PL and Moose.pm
25 - explicitly require Perl 5.8.0+ (Dave Rolsky)
27 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
28 - Fix warnings from find_type_constraint if the type is not
31 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
32 - Predicate methods (equals/is_a_type_of/is_subtype_of) now
33 return false if the type you specify cannot be found in the
34 type registry, rather than throwing an unhelpful and
35 coincidental exception. (t0m).
36 - added docs & test for this (t0m)
38 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Registry
39 - add_type_constraint now throws an exception if a parameter is
41 - added docs & test for this (t0m)
43 * Moose::Cookbook::FAQ
44 - Added a faq entry on the difference between "role" and "trait"
48 - Fixed a bug that caused role composition to not see a required
49 method when that method was provided by another role being
50 composed at the same time. (Dave Rolsky)
51 - test and bug finding (tokuhirom)
53 0.55_01 Wed August 20, 2008
55 !! Calling Moose::init_meta as a function is now !!
56 !! deprecated. Please see the Moose.pm docs for details. !!
58 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
59 - Fix inlined constructor so that values produced by default
60 or builder methods are coerced as required. (t0m)
61 - added test for this (t0m)
63 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
64 - A lazy attribute with a default or builder did not attempt to
65 coerce the default value. The immutable code _did_
67 - added test for this (t0m)
70 - This is a new helper module for writing "Moose-alike"
71 modules. This should make the lives of MooseX module authors
72 much easier. (Dave Rolsky)
75 * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe5
76 - Implemented metaclass traits (and wrote a recipe for it):
78 use Moose -traits => 'Foo'
80 This should make writing small Moose extensions a little
83 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe1
84 - Removed any examples of direct hashref access, and applied an
85 editorial axe to reduce verbosity. (Dave Rolsky)
87 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe1
88 - Also applied an editorial axe here. (Dave Rolsky)
91 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
92 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
93 - Rewrote extending and embedding moose documentation and
94 recipes to use Moose::Exporter (Dave Rolsky)
98 - These two modules now warn when you load them from the main
99 package "main" package, because we will not export sugar to
100 main. Previously it just did nothing. (Dave Rolsky)
103 - Now provide an init_meta method just like Moose.pm, and you
104 can call this to provide an alternate role metaclass. (Dave
105 Rolsky and nothingmuch)
106 - get_method_map now respects the package cache flag (nothingmuch)
109 - Two new methods - add_method and wrap_method_body
113 - Optimizations including allowing constructors to accept hash
114 refs, making many more classes immutable, and making
115 constructors immutable. (nothingmuch)
117 0.55 Sun August 3, 2008
118 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
119 - breaking down the way 'handles' methods are
120 created so that the process can be more easily

124 - fixing what is passed into a ->message with
125 the type constraints (RT #37569)
126 - added tests for this (Charles Alderman)
128 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
129 - fix coerce to accept anon types like subtype can (mst)
132 - reorganized the recipes into sections - Basics, Roles, Meta,
133 Extending - and wrote abstracts for each section (Dave Rolsky)
135 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe10
136 - A new recipe that demonstrates operator overloading
137 in combination with Moose. (bluefeet)
139 * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe1
140 - an introduction to what meta is and why you'd want to make
141 your own metaclass extensions (Dave Rolsky)
143 * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe4
144 - a very simple metaclass example (Dave Rolsky)
146 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
147 - how to write a Moose-alike module to use your own object base
150 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
151 - how to write modules with an API just like C<Moose.pm> (Dave
155 - Tons of fixes, both syntactical and grammatical (Dave
156 Rolsky, Paul Fenwick)
158 0.54 Thurs. July 3, 2008
159 ... this is not my day today ...
161 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
162 - fixed legal_options_for_inheritance such that
163 clone_and_inherit options still works for
164 Class::MOP::Attribute objects and therefore
165 does not break MooseX::AttributeHelpers
168 0.53 Thurs. July 3, 2008
169 * Whoops, I guess I should run 'make manifest' before
170 actually releasing the module. No actual changes
171 in this release, except the fact that it includes
172 the changes that I didn't include in the last
175 0.52 Thurs. July 3, 2008
177 - added "FEATURE REQUESTS" section to the Moose docs
178 to properly direct people (stevan) (RT #34333)
179 - making 'extends' croak if it is passed a Role since
180 this is not ever something you want to do
181 (fixed by stevan, found by obra)
182 - added tests for this (stevan)
185 - adding support for DOES (as in UNIVERSAL::DOES)
187 - added test for this

205 0.51 Thurs. Jun 26, 2008
207 - add unimport so "no Moose::Role" actually does
210 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToRole
211 - when RoleA did RoleB, and RoleA aliased a method from RoleB in
212 order to provide its own implementation, that method still got
213 added to the list of required methods for consumers of
214 RoleB. Now an aliased method is only added to the list of
215 required methods if the role doing the aliasing does not
216 provide its own implementation. See Recipe 11 for an example
217 of all this. (Dave Rolsky)
218 - added tests for this
220 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
221 - when a single argument that wasn't a hashref was provided to
222 an immutabilized constructor, the error message was very
223 unhelpful, as opposed to the non-immutable error. Reported by
225 - added test for this (Dave Rolsky)
227 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
228 - added support for meta_attr->does("ShortAlias") (sartak)

297 (late night release engineering)--
299 - fixing the version is META.yml, no functional
300 changes in this release
302 0.46 Wed. May 28, 2008
303 !! This version now approx. 20-25% !!
304 !! faster with new Class::MOP 0.57 !!

345 is currently not supported in roles,
346 but, ... patches welcome
347 - All usage of Carp::confess have been replaced
348 by Carp::croak in the "keyword" functions since
349 the stack trace is usually not helpful
352 - All usage of Carp::confess have been replaced
353 by Carp::croak in the "keyword" functions since
354 the stack trace is usually not helpful
355 - The 'has' keyword for roles now accepts the

404 show where the error is (thanks mst)
407 - BUILDALL and DEMOLISHALL now call
408 ->body when looping through the
409 methods, to avoid the overloaded
411 - fixed issue where DEMOLISHALL was
412 eating the $@ values, and so not

599 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
600 - fix handles so that it doesn't return nothing
601 when the method cannot be found, not sure why
602 it ever did this originally, this means we now

754 in Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Parameterized
756 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Parameterized
757 - refactored how these types are handled so they
758 are more generic and not confined to ArrayRef
762 - shortened some file names for better VMS support (RT #32381)
764 0.33 Fri. Dec. 14, 2007
765 !! Moose now loads 2 x faster !!
766 !! with new Class::MOP 0.49 !!

769 Moose-ness easier (see POD docs for more)
773 - several tweaks to take advantage of the
774 new method map caching in Class::MOP

778 be used as a container (sartak)
779 - added tests for this
780 - basic support for coercion to ArrayRef and
781 HashRef for containers (sartak)
782 - added tests for this
784 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
785 - coercions will now create subtypes as needed
786 so you can now add coercions to parameterized
787 types without having to explictly define them
788 - added tests for this
790 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
791 - allow subclasses to decide whether we need
792 to copy the value into a new variable (sartak)
794 0.32 Tues. Dec. 4, 2007
795 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
796 - fixing how subtype aliases of unions work
797 they should inherit the parent's coercion
798 - added tests for this
799 - you can now define multiple coercions on
800 a single type at different times instead of
801 having to do it all in one place
802 - added tests for this
804 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
805 - there is now a default constraint of sub { 1 }
806 instead of Moose::Util::TypeConstraints setting
809 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
810 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion::Union
811 - added the &has_coercion_for_type and
812 &add_type_coercions methods to support the

814 more type coercions for Union types)
816 0.31 Mon. Nov. 26, 2007
817 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
818 - made the +attr syntax handle extending types with
819 parameters. So "has '+foo' => (isa => 'ArrayRef[Int]')"
820 now works if the original foo is an ArrayRef.
821 - added tests for this.
822 - delegation now works even if the attribute does not
823 have a reader method using the get_read_method_ref
824 method from Class::MOP::Attribute.
825 - added tests for this
826 - added docs for this
828 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
829 - passing no "additional attribute info" to
830 &find_or_create_type_constraint will no longer

832 instead it will just return undef.
833 - added docs for this
835 0.30 Fri. Nov. 23, 2007
836 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor

848 - added tests for this
851 - adding the link to Recipie 11 (written by Sartak)
852 - adding test for SYNOPSIS code
855 - New tests for builder bug. Upon instantiation, if an

857 builder default was not getting run, oops. (groditi)
859 0.29 Tues. Nov. 13, 2007
860 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
861 - Fix error message on missing builder method (groditi)

891 got mentioned on CPAN Forum & perlmonks
894 - fixed how required methods are handled
895 when they encounter overriden or modified
896 methods from a class (thanks to confound).
897 - added tests for this
899 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraint
900 - fixed the type notation parser so that
901 the | always creates a union and so is
902 no longer a valid type char (thanks to
903 konobi, mugwump and #moose for working
905 - added more tests for this
907 0.26 Thurs. Sept. 27, 2007
910 * Parameterized Types
911 We now support parameterized collection types, such as:
912 ArrayRef[Int] # array or integers
913 HashRef[Object] # a hash with object values
914 They can also be nested:
915 ArrayRef[HashRef[RegExpr]] # an array of hashes with regexpr values
916 And work with the type unions as well:
917 ArrayRef[Int | Str] # array of integers of strings
919 * Better Framework Extendability
920 Moose.pm is now "extendable" such that it is now much
921 easier to extend the framework and add your own keywords
922 and customizations. See the "EXTENDING AND EMBEDDING MOOSE"
923 section of the Moose.pm docs.
926 In an effort to begin documenting some of the various
927 details of Moose as well as some common idioms, we have
928 created Moose::Cookbook::Snacks as a place to find
929 small (easily digestable) nuggets of Moose code.
932 ~ Several doc updates/cleanup thanks to castaway ~
934 - converted build system to use Module::Install instead of
935 Module::Build (thanks to jrockway)
938 - added all the meta classes to the immutable list and
939 set it to inline the accessors

966 assumptions about hash based classes (thanks to dexter)
968 * Moose::Coookbook::Snacks
969 - these are bits of documentation, not quite as big as
970 Recipes but which have no clear place in the module docs.
971 So they are Snacks! (horray for castaway++)
973 * Moose::Cookbook::Recipe4
974 - updated it to use the new ArrayRef[MyType] construct
975 - updated the accompanying test as well
977 +++ Major Refactor of the Type Constraint system +++
978 +++ with new features added as well +++
980 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraint

989 - some minor adjustments to make subclassing easier
990 - added the package_defined_in attribute so that we
991 can track where the type constraints are created

994 - this is now been refactored to be a subclass of
995 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
997 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion::Union
998 - this has been added to service the newly refactored
999 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union and is itself
1000 a subclass of Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion

1014 (thanks to shlomif).
1016 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1017 - required attributes now will no longer accept undef
1018 from the constructor, even if there is a default and lazy

1022 - added tests for this
1024 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1025 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1026 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1027 - type-constraint tests now handle overloaded objects correctly
1028 in the error message
1029 - added tests for this (thanks to EvanCarroll)

1056 - added tests for these
1058 0.24 Tues. July 3, 2007
1059 ~ Some doc updates/cleanup ~
1061 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1062 - added support for roles to be given as parameters
1063 to the 'handles' option.
1064 - added tests and docs for this

1086 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1087 - fix for prototype undeclared issue when Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1088 loaded before consumers (e.g. Moose::Meta::Attribute) by predeclaring
1089 prototypes for functions
1090 - added the ClassName type constraint, this checks for strings
1091 which will respond true to ->isa(UNIVERSAL).

1101 - fix reader presedence bug in Moose::Meta::Attribute + tests
1104 - Foo->new(undef) now gets ignored, it is assumed you meant to pass
1105 a HASH-ref and missed. This produces better error messages then
1106 having it die cause undef is not a HASH.
1107 - added tests for this
1109 0.21 Thursday, May 2nd, 2007
1111 - added SUPER_SLOT and INNER_SLOT class hashes to support unimport

1129 roles would blow up. Thanks to Aankhen`` for
1130 finding this insidious error, and it's solution.
1132 ~~ lots of spelling and grammer fixes in the docs,
1133 many many thanks to rlb3 and Aankhen for these :)
1135 0.20 Friday, April 6th, 2007
1136 >> I messed up the SKIP logic in one test
1137 so this release is just to fix that.
1140 - 'has' now also accepts an ARRAY ref
1141 to create multiple attrs (see docs)
1142 (thanks to konobi for this)
1143 - added tests and docs
1145 0.19 Thurs. April 5th, 2007
1146 ~~ More documentation updates ~~
1148 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1149 - 'type' now supports messages as well
1150 thanks to phaylon for finding this
1151 - added tests for this
1152 - added &list_all_type_constraints and
1153 &list_all_builtin_type_constraints
1154 functions to facilitate introspection.
1156 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1157 - fixed regexp 'handles' declarations
1158 to build the list of delegated methods
1159 correctly (and not override important
1160 things like &new) thanks to ashleyb
1162 - added tests and docs for this
1163 - added the 'documentation' attributes
1164 so that you can actually document your
1165 attributes and inspect them through the
1167 - added tests and docs for this
1169 * Moose::Meta::Class
1170 - when loading custom attribute metaclasses
1171 it will first look in for the class in the
1172 Moose::Meta::Attribute::Custom::$name, and
1173 then default to just loading $name.
1174 - added tests and docs for this
1176 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1177 - type constraints now stringify to their names.
1178 - added test for this
1181 - added tests to assure we work with Module::Refresh
1182 - added stricter test skip logic in the Moose POOP
1183 test, ask Rob Kinyon why.
1184 - *cough* DBM::Deep 1.0 backwards compatability sucks *cough* ;)
1186 0.18 Sat. March 10, 2007
1187 ~~ Many, many documentation updates ~~
1190 - We now use Class::MOP::load_class to
1192 - added tests to show types and subtypes
1193 working with Declare::Constraints::Simple
1194 and Test::Deep as constraint engines.
1197 !! You must have Class::MOP 0.37_001 !!
1198 !! for this developer release to work !!
1200 This release was primarily adding the immutable
1201 feature to Moose. An immutable class is one which
1202 you promise not to alter. When you set the class
1203 as immutable it will perform various bits of
1204 memoization and inline certain part of the code
1205 (constructors, destructors and accessors). This
1206 minimizes (and in some cases totally eliminates)
1207 one of Moose's biggest performance hits. This
1208 feature is not on by default, and is 100% optional.
1209 It has several configurable bits as well, so you
1210 can pick and choose to your specific needs.
1212 The changes involved in this were fairly wide and
1213 highly specific, but 100% backwards compatible, so
1214 I am not going to enumerate them here. If you are
1215 truely interested in what was changed, please do
1218 0.17 Tues. Nov. 14, 2006
1219 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1220 - bugfix for read-only accessors which
1221 are have a type constraint and lazy.
1222 Thanks to chansen for finding it.
1224 0.16 Tues. Nov. 14, 2006
1226 There are some speed improvements in this release,
1227 but they are only the begining, so stay tuned.
1230 - BUILDALL and DEMOLISHALL no longer get
1231 called unless they actually need to be.
1232 This gave us a signifigant speed boost
1233 for the cases when there is no BUILD or
1234 DEMOLISH method present.
1236 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1237 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1238 - added an 'optimize_as' option to the
1239 type constraint, which allows for a
1240 hand optimized version of the type
1241 constraint to be used when possible.
1242 - Any internally created type constraints
1243 now provide an optimized version as well.
1245 0.15 Sun. Nov. 5, 2006
1247 This version of Moose *must* have Class::MOP 0.36 in order
1248 to work correctly. A number of small internal tweaks have
1249 been made in order to be compatible with that release.
1251 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1252 - added &unimport so that you can clean out
1253 your class namespace of these exported
1256 * Moose::Meta::Class
1257 - fixed minor issue which occasionally
1258 comes up during global destruction
1260 - moved Moose::Meta::Method::Overriden into
1264 - moved Moose::Meta::Role::Method into
1267 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1268 - changed how we do type checks so that
1269 we reduce the overall cost, but still
1272 - moved accessor generation methods to
1273 Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor to
1274 conform to the API changes from
1277 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1278 - changed how constraints are compiled
1279 so that we do less recursion and more
1280 iteration. This makes the type check
1282 - moved Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
1285 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1286 - created this from methods formerly found in
1287 Moose::Meta::Attribute
1289 * Moose::Meta::Role::Method
1290 - moved this from Moose::Meta::Role
1292 * Moose::Meta::Method::Overriden
1293 - moved this from Moose::Meta::Class
1295 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
1296 - moved this from Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1298 0.14 Mon. Oct. 9, 2006
1300 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1301 - fixed lazy attributes which were not getting
1302 checked with the type constraint (thanks ashley)
1303 - added tests for this
1304 - removed the over-enthusiastic DWIMery of the
1305 automatic ArrayRef and HashRef defaults, it
1306 broke predicates in an ugly way.
1307 - removed tests for this
1309 0.13 Sat. Sept. 30, 2006
1311 This version of Moose *must* have Class::MOP 0.35 in order
1312 to work correctly. A number of small internal tweaks have
1313 been made in order to be compatible with that release.
1316 - Removed the use of UNIVERSAL::require to be a better
1317 symbol table citizen and remove a dependency
1318 (thanks Adam Kennedy)
1320 **~~ removed experimental & undocumented feature ~~**
1321 - commented out the 'method' and 'self' keywords, see the
1322 comments for more info.
1325 - added a FAQ and WTF files to document frequently
1326 asked questions and common problems
1328 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1329 - added GlobRef and FileHandle type constraint
1330 - added tests for this
1332 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1333 - if your attribute 'isa' ArrayRef of HashRef, and you have
1334 not explicitly set a default, then make the default DWIM.
1335 This will also work for subtypes of ArrayRef and HashRef
1337 - you can now auto-deref subtypes of ArrayRef or HashRef too.
1338 - new test added for this (thanks to ashley)
1341 - added basic support for runtime role composition
1342 but this is still *highly experimental*, so feedback
1343 is much appreciated :)
1344 - added tests for this
1346 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1347 - the type constraint now handles the coercion process
1348 through delegation, this is to support the coercion
1351 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
1352 - it is now possible for coercions to be performed
1354 - added tests for this (thanks to konobi)
1356 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
1357 - properly capturing error when type constraint
1361 - Scalar::Util 1.18 is bad on Win32, so temporarily
1362 only require version 1.17 for Win32 and cygwin.
1363 (thanks Adam Kennedy)
1365 0.12 Sat. Sept. 1, 2006
1367 - Recipe5 (subtypes & coercion) has been written
1370 - fixed "bad meta" error message to be more descriptive
1371 - fixed &unimport to not remove the &inner and &super
1372 keywords because we need to localize them.
1373 - fixed number of spelling/grammer issues, thanks Theory :)
1375 **~~ experimental & undocumented feature ~~**
1376 - added the method and self keywords, they are basically
1377 just sugar, and they may not stay around.
1380 - added &dump method to easily Data::Dumper
1383 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1384 - added the &is_a_type_of method to check both the current
1385 and the subtype of a method (similar to &isa with classes)
1388 - this is now a subclass of Class::MOP::Module, and no longer
1389 creates the _role_meta ugliness of before.
1390 - fixed tests to reflect this change
1392 0.11 Wed. July 12, 2006
1394 - added an &unimport method to remove all the keywords
1395 that Moose will import, simply add 'no Moose' to the
1396 bottom of your class file.
1399 - fixed some test failures caused by a forgotten test
1402 0.10 Thurs. July 6, 2006
1404 - improved error message when loading modules so
1405 it is less confusing when you load a role.
1406 - added &calculate_all_roles method to
1407 Moose::Meta::Class and Moose::Meta::Role
1410 This module has been tested against Class::MOP 0.30
1411 but it does not yet utilize the optimizations
1412 it makes available. Stay tuned for that ;)
1414 0.09_03 Fri. June 23, 2006
1415 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
1417 - 'use strict' and 'use warnings' are no longer
1418 needed in Moose classes, Moose itself will
1419 turn them on for you.
1420 - added tests for this
1421 - moved code from exported subs to private methods
1422 in Moose::Meta::Class
1425 - as with Moose, strict and warnings are
1426 automatically turned on for you.
1427 - added tests for this
1430 - now handles an edge case for override errors
1431 - added tests for this
1432 - added some more edge case tests

1444 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1445 - cleaned up prototypes for the subs
1448 0.09_01 Fri. May 12, 2006
1449 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
1450 - This release works in combination with
1451 Class::MOP 0.29_01, it is a developer
1452 release because it uses the a new
1453 instance sub-protocol and a fairly
1454 complete Role implementation. It has
1455 not yet been optimized, so it slower
1456 the the previous CPAN version. This
1457 release also lacks good updated docs,
1458 the official release will have updated docs.
1461 - refactored the keyword exports
1462 - 'with' now checks Role validaity and
1463 accepts more than one Role at a time
1464 - 'extends' makes metaclass adjustments as
1465 needed to ensure metaclass compatability
1468 - refactored the keyword exports
1469 - 'with' now checks Role validaity and

1472 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1473 - added the 'enum' keyword for simple
1474 string enumerations which can be used as
1476 - see example of usage in t/202_example.t

1482 - much work done on the role composition
1483 - many new tests for conflict detection
1484 and composition edge cases

1509 - keywords are now exported with Sub::Exporter
1510 thanks to chansen for this commit
