1 Revision history for Perl extension Class-MOP.
4 - removed the dependency for Clone since
5 we no longer to deep-cloning by default.
8 - improved &get_package_variable
10 0.12 Thurs. Feb 23, 2006
11 - reduced the dependency on B, no need to always
15 - added docs to the C3 method dispatch order test
16 - fixed missing Algorithm::C3 dependency by making
17 the test skip if it is not installed
19 0.11 Mon Feb. 20, 2006
21 - added example of changing method dispatch order to C3
24 - changed how clone_instance behaves, it now only does a
25 shallow clone (see docs for more details)
26 - added docs and tests
28 0.10 Tues Feb. 14, 2006
29 ** This release was mostly about writing more tests and
30 cleaning out old and dusty code, the MOP should now
31 be considered "ready to use".
33 - adding more tests to get coverage up a little higher,
34 mostly testing errors and edge cases.
35 - test coverage is now at 99%
38 - no longer optionally exports to UNIVERSAL::meta or
39 creates a custom metaclass generator, use the
40 metaclass pragma instead.
43 - fixed a number of minor issues which came up in the
46 * Class::MOP::Attribute
47 - fixed a number of minor issues which came up in the
51 - fixing the AttributesWithHistory example, it was broken.
53 0.06 Thurs Feb. 9, 2006
55 - adding new metaclass pragma to make setting up the
56 metaclass a little more straightforward
59 - clean up bootstrapping to include more complete
60 attribute definitions for Class::MOP::Class and
61 Class::MOP::Attribute (accessors, readers, writers,
62 etc.) ... it is redundant, but is useful meta-info
66 - fixing minor meta-circularity issue with &meta, it
67 is now more useful for subclasses
68 - added &get_attribute_map as an accessor for the
69 hash of attribute meta objects
70 - &compute_all_applicable_attributes now just returns
71 the attribute meta-object, rather than the HASH ref
72 since all the same info can be gotten from the
73 attribute meta-object itself
74 - updated docs & tests to reflect
75 - added &clone_instance method which does a deep clone
76 of the instance structure created by &construct_instance
77 - added docs & tests for this
78 - added Clone as a dependency
79 - added &new_object and &clone_object convience methods to
80 return blessed new or cloned instances
81 - they handle Class::MOP::Class singletons correctly too
82 - added docs & tests for this
83 - cleaned up the &constuct_class_instance so that it behaves
84 more like &construct_instance (and managed the singletons too)
85 - added the &check_metaclass_compatibility method to make sure
86 that metaclasses are upward and downward compatible.
87 - added tests and docs for this
90 - adjusting code to use the &Class::MOP::Class::meta
92 - adjusting code to use the metaclass pragma
96 - added the &attribute_metaclass and &method_metaclass
97 attributes which contain a metaclass name to use for
98 attributes/methods respectively
101 - bootstrap additional attributes for Class::MOP::Class
104 - adjusted the example code and tests to use the new
105 &attribute_metaclass feature of Class::MOP::Class
109 0.04 Fri Feb. 3, 2006
111 - some documentation suggestions from #perl6
113 * Class::MOP::Attribute
114 - improved error messages
117 - added new examples:
118 - AttributesWithHistory
119 - ClassEncapsultedAttributes
121 0.03 Fri Feb. 3, 2006
122 - converted to Module::Build instead of EU::MM
124 * Class::MOP::Attribute
125 - refactored method generation code
126 - attributes are now associated with class directly
129 - refactored the InsideOut example to take advantage
130 of the Class::MOP::Attribute refactoring
131 - changed example files to .pod files and hide thier
132 package names from PAUSE (I don't want to own these
133 namespaces really, they are just examples)
135 0.02 Thurs Feb. 2, 2006
136 - moving examples from t/lib/* to examples/*
137 - adding POD documentation to the examples
