1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
5 - Document Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication fails tests unless
6 you use the latest version with Catalyst 5.9
8 5.90002 - 2011-08-22 21:44:00
9 Backward compatibility fixes:
11 - Deploying via mod_perl in some cases is fixed by making
12 Catalyst::EngineLoader detect mod_perl in more generic
14 https://github.com/miyagawa/Plack/issues/239
18 - Fix incorrect example in Catalyst::PSGI.
19 - Add note that if you are using the PSGI engine, then $c->req->env
20 needs to become $c->engine->env when you upgrade.
22 5.90001 - 2011-08-15 22:42
24 Realise that we accidentally chopped a digit off the versioning scheme
25 without anyone noticing, which is a bad thing.
27 Feel like a fool. Well done t0m.
31 5.9000 - 2011-08-15 22:18
33 See Catalyst::Delta for the major changes in this release.
35 Changelog since the last TRIAL release:
37 Backward compatibility fixes:
39 - Fix calling MyApp->engine_class to set the engine class manually.
41 - Re-add a $res->headers->{status} field to Catalyst::Test responses.
42 This _should_ be accessed with $c->res->code instead, but is here
43 for backward compatibility.
47 - Documentation which was in the now removed Catalyst::Engine::* classes
48 has been moved to Catalyst::Manual::Deployment
52 - nginx specific behaviour is removed as it is not needed with any
53 web server configuration I can come up with (recommended config is
54 documented in Catalst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI)
56 5.89003 2011-07-28 20:11:50 (TRIAL release)
58 Backward compatibility fixes:
60 - Application scripts which have not been upgraded to newer
61 Catalyst::Script::XXX style scripts have been fixed
65 - mod_perl handler fixed to work with application classes which have manually
68 - Scripts now force the Plack engine choice manually, rather than relying
69 on auto-detection, as the automatic mechanism gets it wrong if (for
70 example) Coro is loaded.
72 - Server script option for --fork --keepalive are now handled by loading
73 the Starman server, rather than silently ignored.
75 - Server script options for --background and --pid are now fixed by
76 using MooseX::Deamonize
78 - Plack middlewares to deal with issues in Lighttpd and IIS6 are now
79 automatically applied to applications and deployments which need them
80 (when there is not a user written .psgi script available).
81 This fixes compatibility with previous stable releases for applications
82 deployed in these environments.
86 - Catalyst::Test's remote_request method not uses Plack::Test to perform
90 - Added a Catalyst::PSGI manual page with information about writing a .psgi
91 file for your application.
93 - Catalyst::Uprading has been improved, and the status of old Catalyst
97 - Catalyst::Test's local_request function is now deprecated. You should just
98 use the normal request function against a local server instead.
100 5.80033 2011-07-24 16:09:00
103 - Fix Catalyst::Request so that the hostname accessor is not incorrectly
104 populated with 'localhost' if a reverse DNS lookup fails.
106 - Fix Path actions debug screen to display number of arguments
108 - Fix a regression that prevented configuring attributes for all actions using
109 ->config(actions => { '*' => \%attrs }) from working
111 - Append $\ in Catalyst::Response->print to more closely match
112 IO::Handle's behaviour.
114 - Fixed situation where a detach($action) from a forward within auto
115 was not breaking out correctly
117 - Fix the disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config setting
118 to also work in the $c->component method.
120 - Handle users setting cookies with an undef value by not trying to
121 output that cookie (rather than trying to do so and causing an exception
122 as previously happened). A warning is logged if this occurs in debug
124 - Update tests to ignore $ENV{CATALYST_HOME} where required
126 - Change repository metadata to point at git.
128 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Request::Upload
130 - Catalyst::Test: Fixes to action_ok, action_redirect and action_notfound
131 test functions to be better documented, and have better default test
134 - Update tests to ignore CATALYST_HOME env var.
136 5.89002 2011-03-02 11:30:00 (TRIAL release)
139 - Fix a couple of test failures caused by optional dependencies such as FCGI
143 - Simplified the API for getting a PSGI application code reference for a
144 Catalyst application for use in, for example, .psgi files. See
145 Catalyst::Upgrading for details.
147 5.89001 2011-03-01 15:27:00 (TRIAL release)
150 - Fixed command-line argument passing in Catalyst::Script::FastCGI.
152 - Fixed Catalyst::Engine::Stomp compatibility. Applications using
153 Catalyst::Engine::Stomp are believed to continue working without
154 any changes with the new Catalyst major version.
156 - Fixed issues auto-loading engine with older scripts.
159 - Catalyst::Engine::Wx is officially unsupported and BROKEN. If you
160 are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll
161 be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with
162 the new major version of Catalyst.
165 - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90
166 of Catalyst has been much improved.
168 5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00
171 - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of
172 $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value
173 to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start
175 Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined.
177 - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request
178 not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to
179 the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren)
181 - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly
184 - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number
185 of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for
186 PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path).
188 This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*)
189 type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements
193 - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to
194 allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally.
196 This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to
197 be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by
198 developers without changing their application code.
200 5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02
203 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
204 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
205 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
206 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
207 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.
209 - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty
210 body (e.g. doing a redirect)
212 5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release)
214 This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime.
218 - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have
219 one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything
220 the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen
221 through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI,
222 Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so
223 on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The
224 catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work.
226 If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or
227 anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine::
228 classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine
229 class, please tell us *now*.
231 5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
234 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
236 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
237 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
238 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
239 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
240 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
241 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
244 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
245 the Content-Length header appropriately)
246 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
247 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
248 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
249 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
250 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
251 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
253 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
254 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
255 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
256 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
257 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
258 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
259 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
260 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
263 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
264 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
266 5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
269 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
270 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
274 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
275 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
277 5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
280 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
282 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
283 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
285 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
287 5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
290 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
292 5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
295 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
296 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
297 load Utils before MyApp.pm
299 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
302 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
304 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
305 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
306 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
307 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
308 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
310 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
313 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
314 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
315 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
318 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
319 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
324 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
327 5.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
330 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
331 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
332 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
333 the default action creation.
336 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
337 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
338 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
339 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
340 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
341 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
342 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
345 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
347 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
349 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
351 5.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
354 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
355 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
356 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
357 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
358 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
361 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
362 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
365 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
366 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
367 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
368 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
370 5.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
373 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
374 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
375 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
376 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
377 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
378 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
379 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
380 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
383 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
384 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
385 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
387 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
388 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
389 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
390 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
393 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
394 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
397 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
398 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
401 5.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
404 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
405 the content type and content length if available.
407 Refactoring / optimizations:
408 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
409 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
410 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
411 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
412 screen as easy to write.
413 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
414 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
415 in parameter filtering (for example).
416 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
417 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
418 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
419 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
420 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
423 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
424 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
425 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
426 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
428 5.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
431 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
432 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
434 5.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
437 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
438 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
440 5.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
443 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
444 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
445 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
446 which should not be encoded.
447 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
448 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
450 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
451 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
452 any set of args/captures.
454 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
455 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
457 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
461 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
463 - Various minor typo fixes.
466 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
468 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
471 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
472 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
473 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
476 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
477 - Clarify documentation about debug
480 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
481 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
482 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
484 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
487 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
488 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
492 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
493 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
495 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
496 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
497 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
498 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
499 argv key in the options hash.
500 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
501 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
502 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
503 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
505 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
509 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
510 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
511 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
512 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
513 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
515 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
519 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
520 encoding test controller.
522 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
524 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
525 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
526 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
527 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
529 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
530 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
531 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
532 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
533 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
535 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
539 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
540 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
541 less packed with information of no use.
545 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
547 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
549 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
550 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
551 the single character '0'.
552 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
555 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
556 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
557 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
559 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
561 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
562 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
563 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
564 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
565 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
566 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
567 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
568 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
569 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
570 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
571 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
572 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
574 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
575 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
577 Refactoring / cleanups:
578 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
579 (and then skipped) normally.
582 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
584 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
587 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
588 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
589 on the old behaviour.
591 Refactoring / cleanups:
592 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
593 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
595 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
598 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
599 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
600 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
601 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
602 as there is no recommended alternative.
603 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
604 fallback for fully qualified component names.
605 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
606 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
607 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
608 startup, rather than with the first hit.
609 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
610 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
611 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
612 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
613 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
614 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
615 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
616 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
619 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
620 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
621 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
622 deprecated and causes warnings).
623 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
624 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
625 in the correct order.
626 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
628 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
629 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
630 is deprecated (RT#51489)
633 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
634 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
635 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
636 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
637 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
639 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
640 exception classes need to implement.
641 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
642 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
645 Refactoring / cleanups:
646 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
647 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
648 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
649 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
650 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
651 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
652 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
654 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
657 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
658 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
659 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
660 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
662 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
663 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
664 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
667 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
668 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
671 Refactoring / cleanups:
672 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
673 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
674 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
675 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
676 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
678 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
681 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
682 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
683 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
684 now loaded at most once + tests.
685 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
686 is returned to 'actions'.
687 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
688 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
690 Refactoring / cleanups:
691 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
692 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
695 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
696 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
697 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
699 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
702 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
703 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
706 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
709 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
710 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
711 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
713 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
716 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
717 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
718 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
720 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
723 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
724 application class immutable without that option.
725 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
726 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
728 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
729 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
730 (hopefully) future versions.
731 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
732 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
734 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
736 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
737 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
738 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
739 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
740 Request-URI of the Request-Line
742 Refactoring / cleanups:
743 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
744 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
745 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
746 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
747 known issues with 5.8.3.

749 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
752 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
753 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
754 for the controller namespace
755 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
756 expand_component_module (rjbs)
757 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
758 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
759 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
760 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
762 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
763 frontend port (jshirley)
764 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
768 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
769 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
770 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
771 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
774 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
777 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
778 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
779 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
781 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
782 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
783 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
784 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
785 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
786 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
790 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
791 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
792 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
795 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
798 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
799 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
801 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
802 in some environments.
803 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
804 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
805 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
806 except works correctly with closures.
807 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
808 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
809 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
811 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
812 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
813 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
816 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
817 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
818 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
819 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
820 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
821 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
823 Refactoring / cleanups:
824 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
825 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
826 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
827 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
829 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
830 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
831 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
833 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
834 again in Catalyst::Test
836 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
839 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
840 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
843 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
846 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
847 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
848 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
850 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
853 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
854 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
857 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
858 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
862 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
863 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
864 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
865 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
866 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
868 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
869 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
870 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
871 controller naming. (random)
872 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
873 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78

882 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
884 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
885 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
886 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
887 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
888 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
889 to report 'Unknown Error'
890 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
891 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
892 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
893 parse_on_demand is on

906 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
907 Test::Aggregate is available.
908 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
909 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without

921 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
922 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
923 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
924 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
925 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
926 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
928 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
929 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
930 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.

935 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
936 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures

965 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
966 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
967 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
968 tries to chain to itself
970 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
971 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
972 - Tests for this (radek)
973 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance

990 the correct metaclass
991 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
992 the restarter process
993 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
994 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
996 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
997 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
998 immutable restart correctly.
1000 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
1001 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm

1014 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
1015 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
1016 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
1017 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
1018 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
1019 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
1020 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
1022 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
1023 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.

1074 Catalyst::Dispatcher
1075 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors

1077 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
1078 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
1079 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
1080 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance

1083 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
1085 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
1086 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later

1090 test sync for engines easier
1091 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
1092 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
1094 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
1095 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
1096 rather than the stringified ref.
1097 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup

1240 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
1241 method with a regex as the argument
