3 5.90004 - 2011-10-11 17:12:00
7 - Don't guess engine class names when setting an engine through
10 5.90003 - 2011-10-05 08:32:00
13 - Make default body reponses for 302s W3C compliant. RT#71237
15 - Fix issue where groups of attributes to override controller actions
16 in config would be (incorrectly) overwritten, if the parser for that
17 attribute mangled the contents of the attribute. This was found
18 with Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole, where Does => [ '+Foo' ]
19 would be transformed to Does => [ 'Foo' ] and written back to config,
20 whereas Does => '+Foo' would not be changed in config. RT#65463
24 - Set a matching Content-type for the redirect if Catalyst sets the
25 body. This is for compatibility with a WatchGuard Firewall.
27 Backward compatibility fixes:
29 - Restore (an almost empty) Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to the dist for old
30 scripts which explictly require Catalyst::Engine::HTTP
34 - Document Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication fails tests unless
35 you use the latest version with Catalyst 5.9
37 - Clarify that prepare is called as a class method
39 - Clarify use of uri_for further. RT#57011
41 5.90002 - 2011-08-22 21:44:00
42 Backward compatibility fixes:
44 - Deploying via mod_perl in some cases is fixed by making
45 Catalyst::EngineLoader detect mod_perl in more generic
47 https://github.com/miyagawa/Plack/issues/239
51 - Fix incorrect example in Catalyst::PSGI.
52 - Add note that if you are using the PSGI engine, then $c->req->env
53 needs to become $c->engine->env when you upgrade.
55 5.90001 - 2011-08-15 22:42
57 Realise that we accidentally chopped a digit off the versioning scheme
58 without anyone noticing, which is a bad thing.
60 Feel like a fool. Well done t0m.
64 5.9000 - 2011-08-15 22:18
66 See Catalyst::Delta for the major changes in this release.
68 Changelog since the last TRIAL release:
70 Backward compatibility fixes:
72 - Fix calling MyApp->engine_class to set the engine class manually.
74 - Re-add a $res->headers->{status} field to Catalyst::Test responses.
75 This _should_ be accessed with $c->res->code instead, but is here
76 for backward compatibility.
80 - Documentation which was in the now removed Catalyst::Engine::* classes
81 has been moved to Catalyst::Manual::Deployment
85 - nginx specific behaviour is removed as it is not needed with any
86 web server configuration I can come up with (recommended config is
87 documented in Catalst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI)
89 5.89003 2011-07-28 20:11:50 (TRIAL release)
91 Backward compatibility fixes:
93 - Application scripts which have not been upgraded to newer
94 Catalyst::Script::XXX style scripts have been fixed
98 - mod_perl handler fixed to work with application classes which have manually
101 - Scripts now force the Plack engine choice manually, rather than relying
102 on auto-detection, as the automatic mechanism gets it wrong if (for
103 example) Coro is loaded.
105 - Server script option for --fork --keepalive are now handled by loading
106 the Starman server, rather than silently ignored.
108 - Server script options for --background and --pid are now fixed by
109 using MooseX::Deamonize
111 - Plack middlewares to deal with issues in Lighttpd and IIS6 are now
112 automatically applied to applications and deployments which need them
113 (when there is not a user written .psgi script available).
114 This fixes compatibility with previous stable releases for applications
115 deployed in these environments.
119 - Catalyst::Test's remote_request method not uses Plack::Test to perform
123 - Added a Catalyst::PSGI manual page with information about writing a .psgi
124 file for your application.
126 - Catalyst::Uprading has been improved, and the status of old Catalyst
130 - Catalyst::Test's local_request function is now deprecated. You should just
131 use the normal request function against a local server instead.
133 5.80033 2011-07-24 16:09:00
136 - Fix Catalyst::Request so that the hostname accessor is not incorrectly
137 populated with 'localhost' if a reverse DNS lookup fails.
139 - Fix Path actions debug screen to display number of arguments
141 - Fix a regression that prevented configuring attributes for all actions using
142 ->config(actions => { '*' => \%attrs }) from working
144 - Append $\ in Catalyst::Response->print to more closely match
145 IO::Handle's behaviour.
147 - Fixed situation where a detach($action) from a forward within auto
148 was not breaking out correctly
150 - Fix the disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config setting
151 to also work in the $c->component method.
153 - Handle users setting cookies with an undef value by not trying to
154 output that cookie (rather than trying to do so and causing an exception
155 as previously happened). A warning is logged if this occurs in debug
157 - Update tests to ignore $ENV{CATALYST_HOME} where required
159 - Change repository metadata to point at git.
161 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Request::Upload
163 - Catalyst::Test: Fixes to action_ok, action_redirect and action_notfound
164 test functions to be better documented, and have better default test
167 - Update tests to ignore CATALYST_HOME env var.
169 5.89002 2011-03-02 11:30:00 (TRIAL release)
172 - Fix a couple of test failures caused by optional dependencies such as FCGI
176 - Simplified the API for getting a PSGI application code reference for a
177 Catalyst application for use in, for example, .psgi files. See
178 Catalyst::Upgrading for details.
180 5.89001 2011-03-01 15:27:00 (TRIAL release)
183 - Fixed command-line argument passing in Catalyst::Script::FastCGI.
185 - Fixed Catalyst::Engine::Stomp compatibility. Applications using
186 Catalyst::Engine::Stomp are believed to continue working without
187 any changes with the new Catalyst major version.
189 - Fixed issues auto-loading engine with older scripts.
192 - Catalyst::Engine::Wx is officially unsupported and BROKEN. If you
193 are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll
194 be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with
195 the new major version of Catalyst.
198 - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90
199 of Catalyst has been much improved.
201 5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00
204 - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of
205 $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value
206 to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start
208 Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined.
210 - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request
211 not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to
212 the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren)
214 - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly
217 - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number
218 of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for
219 PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path).
221 This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*)
222 type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements
226 - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to
227 allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally.
229 This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to
230 be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by
231 developers without changing their application code.
233 5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02
236 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
237 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
238 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
239 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
240 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.
242 - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty
243 body (e.g. doing a redirect)
245 5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release)
247 This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime.
251 - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have
252 one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything
253 the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen
254 through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI,
255 Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so
256 on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The
257 catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work.
259 If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or
260 anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine::
261 classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine
262 class, please tell us *now*.
264 5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
267 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
269 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
270 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
271 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
272 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
273 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
274 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
277 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
278 the Content-Length header appropriately)
279 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
280 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
281 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
282 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
283 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
284 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
286 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
287 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
288 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
289 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
290 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
291 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
292 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
293 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
296 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
297 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
299 5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
302 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
303 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
307 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
308 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
310 5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
313 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
315 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
316 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
318 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
320 5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
323 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
325 5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
328 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
329 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
330 load Utils before MyApp.pm
332 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
335 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
337 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
338 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
339 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
340 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
341 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
343 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
346 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
347 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
348 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
351 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
352 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
357 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
360 5.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
363 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
364 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
365 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
366 the default action creation.
369 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
370 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
371 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
372 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
373 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
374 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
375 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
378 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
380 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
382 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
384 5.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
387 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
388 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
389 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
390 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
391 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
394 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
395 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
398 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
399 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
400 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
401 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
403 5.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
406 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
407 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
408 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
409 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
410 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
411 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
412 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
413 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
416 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
417 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
418 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
420 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
421 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
422 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
423 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
426 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
427 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
430 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
431 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
434 5.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
437 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
438 the content type and content length if available.
440 Refactoring / optimizations:
441 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
442 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
443 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
444 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
445 screen as easy to write.
446 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
447 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
448 in parameter filtering (for example).
449 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
450 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
451 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
452 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
453 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
456 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
457 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
458 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
459 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
461 5.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
464 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
465 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
467 5.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
470 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
471 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
473 5.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
476 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
477 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
478 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
479 which should not be encoded.
480 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
481 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
483 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
484 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
485 any set of args/captures.
487 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
488 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
490 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
494 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
496 - Various minor typo fixes.
499 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
501 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
504 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
505 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
506 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
509 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
510 - Clarify documentation about debug
513 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
514 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
515 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
517 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
520 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
521 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
525 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
526 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
528 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
529 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
530 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
531 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
532 argv key in the options hash.
533 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
534 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
535 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
536 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
538 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
542 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
543 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
544 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
545 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
546 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
548 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
552 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
553 encoding test controller.
555 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
557 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
558 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
559 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
560 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
562 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
563 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
564 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
565 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
566 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
568 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
572 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
573 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
574 less packed with information of no use.
578 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
580 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
582 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
583 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
584 the single character '0'.
585 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
588 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
589 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
590 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
592 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
594 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
595 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
596 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
597 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
598 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
599 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
600 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
601 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
602 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
603 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
604 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
605 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
607 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
608 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
610 Refactoring / cleanups:
611 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
612 (and then skipped) normally.
615 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
617 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
620 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
621 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
622 on the old behaviour.
624 Refactoring / cleanups:
625 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
626 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
628 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
631 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
632 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
633 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
634 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
635 as there is no recommended alternative.
636 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
637 fallback for fully qualified component names.
638 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
639 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
640 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
641 startup, rather than with the first hit.
642 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
643 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
644 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
645 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
646 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
647 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
648 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
649 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
652 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
653 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
654 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
655 deprecated and causes warnings).
656 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
657 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
658 in the correct order.
659 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
661 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
662 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
663 is deprecated (RT#51489)
666 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
667 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
668 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
669 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
670 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
672 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
673 exception classes need to implement.
674 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
675 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
678 Refactoring / cleanups:
679 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
680 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
681 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
682 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
683 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
684 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
685 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
687 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
690 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
691 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
692 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
693 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
695 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
696 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
697 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
700 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
701 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
704 Refactoring / cleanups:
705 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
706 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
707 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
708 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
709 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
711 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
714 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
715 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
716 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
717 now loaded at most once + tests.
718 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
719 is returned to 'actions'.
720 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
721 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
723 Refactoring / cleanups:
724 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
725 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
728 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
729 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
730 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
732 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
735 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
736 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
739 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
742 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
743 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
744 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
746 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
749 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
750 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
751 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
753 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
756 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
757 application class immutable without that option.
758 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
759 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
761 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
762 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
763 (hopefully) future versions.
764 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
765 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
767 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
769 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
770 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
771 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
772 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
773 Request-URI of the Request-Line
775 Refactoring / cleanups:
776 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
777 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
778 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
779 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
780 known issues with 5.8.3.
781 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
782 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
785 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
786 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
787 for the controller namespace
788 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
789 expand_component_module (rjbs)
790 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
791 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
792 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
793 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
795 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
796 frontend port (jshirley)
797 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
801 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
802 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
803 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
804 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
807 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
810 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
811 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
812 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
814 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
815 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
816 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
817 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
818 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
819 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
823 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
824 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
825 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
828 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
831 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
832 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
834 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
835 in some environments.
836 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
837 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
838 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
839 except works correctly with closures.
840 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
841 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
842 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
844 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
845 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
846 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
849 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
850 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
851 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
852 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
853 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
854 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
856 Refactoring / cleanups:
857 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
858 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
859 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
860 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
862 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
863 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
864 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
866 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
867 again in Catalyst::Test
869 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
872 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
873 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
876 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
879 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
880 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
881 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
883 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
886 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
887 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
890 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
891 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
895 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
896 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
897 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
898 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
899 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
901 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
902 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
903 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
904 controller naming. (random)

911 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
913 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
914 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
915 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
917 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
918 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
919 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
920 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
921 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
922 to report 'Unknown Error'
923 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
924 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
925 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
926 parse_on_demand is on
928 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
929 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
930 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.

939 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
940 Test::Aggregate is available.
941 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
942 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
943 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a

954 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
955 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
956 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
957 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
958 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
959 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
961 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
962 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
963 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
964 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
965 configuration in your application.
967 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
968 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
969 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures

993 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
995 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
996 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
998 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
999 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
1000 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
1001 tries to chain to itself
1003 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
1004 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
1005 - Tests for this (radek)
1006 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
1007 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
1008 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
1009 - Tests for this (radek)
1010 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
1011 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
1012 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)

1018 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
1020 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
1021 in production versions
1022 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
1023 the correct metaclass
1024 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
1025 the restarter process
1026 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
1027 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
1029 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
1030 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
1031 immutable restart correctly.
1033 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
1034 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
1035 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically

1047 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
1048 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action

1050 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
1051 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
1052 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
1053 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
1055 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
1056 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
1057 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
1060 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.

1095 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
1096 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)

1107 Catalyst::Dispatcher
1108 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
1109 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
1110 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
1111 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL

1113 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
1115 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
1116 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
1118 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
1119 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
1120 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
1122 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
1123 test sync for engines easier
1124 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
1125 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
1127 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
1128 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
1129 rather than the stringified ref.
1130 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup
