1 Revision history for Perl extension Class-MOP.
5 - added create_anon_class for creating anonymous classes
7 - added get_all_metaclasses, get_all_metaclass_names
8 and get_all_metaclass_instances method to allow
9 access to all the cached metaclass objects.
10 - attribute slot initialization is now the responsibility
11 of the attribute itself, and construct_instance now
12 delegates appropriately
14 * Class::MOP::Attribute
15 - attribute slot initialization is now the responsibility
16 of the attribute itself, so we added a method for it
17 called initialize_instance_slot
20 - adjusted all the examples to use the new attribute
21 initialize_instance_slot method
23 0.24 Tues. April 11, 2006
25 - cleaned up how the before/after/around method
26 modifiers get named with Sub::Name
28 0.23 Thurs. March 30, 2006
30 - fixed the way attribute defaults are handled
31 during instance construction (bug found by chansen)
33 * Class::MOP::Attribute
34 - read-only accessors ('reader') will now die if
35 passed more than one argument (attempting to write
37 - added tests for this
38 - adjusted all /example files to comply
40 0.22 Mon. March 20, 2006
42 - localized $@ in the *_package_variable functions
43 because otherwise, it does ugly things in Moose.
44 - added test case for this
46 0.21 Wed. March 15, 2006
48 - fixed issue where metaclasses are reaped from
49 our cache in global destruction, and so are not
50 available in DESTORY calls
52 0.20 Thurs. March 2, 2006
53 - removed the dependency for Clone since
54 we no longer to deep-cloning by default.
57 - added &package_name, &name and
58 &fully_qualified_name methods, some of
59 which were formerly private subs in
62 * Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
63 - allows for a method to be wrapped with
64 before, after and around modifiers
65 - added tests and docs for this feature
68 - improved &get_package_variable
69 - &version and &superclasses now use it
70 - methods are now blessed into Class::MOP::Method
72 - added methods to install CLOS-style method modifiers
73 - &add_before_method_modifier
74 - &add_after_method_modifier
75 - &add_around_method_modifier
76 - added tests and docs for these
77 - added &find_next_method_by_name which finds the
78 equivalent of SUPER::method_name
80 0.12 Thurs. Feb 23, 2006
81 - reduced the dependency on B, no need to always
85 - added docs to the C3 method dispatch order test
86 - fixed missing Algorithm::C3 dependency by making
87 the test skip if it is not installed
89 0.11 Mon Feb. 20, 2006
91 - added example of changing method dispatch order to C3
94 - changed how clone_instance behaves, it now only does a
95 shallow clone (see docs for more details)
96 - added docs and tests
98 0.10 Tues Feb. 14, 2006
99 ** This release was mostly about writing more tests and
100 cleaning out old and dusty code, the MOP should now
101 be considered "ready to use".
103 - adding more tests to get coverage up a little higher,
104 mostly testing errors and edge cases.
105 - test coverage is now at 99%
108 - no longer optionally exports to UNIVERSAL::meta or
109 creates a custom metaclass generator, use the
110 metaclass pragma instead.
113 - fixed a number of minor issues which came up in the
114 error/edge-case tests
116 * Class::MOP::Attribute
117 - fixed a number of minor issues which came up in the
118 error/edge-case tests
121 - fixing the AttributesWithHistory example, it was broken.
123 0.06 Thurs Feb. 9, 2006
125 - adding new metaclass pragma to make setting up the
126 metaclass a little more straightforward
129 - clean up bootstrapping to include more complete
130 attribute definitions for Class::MOP::Class and
131 Class::MOP::Attribute (accessors, readers, writers,
132 etc.) ... it is redundant, but is useful meta-info
136 - fixing minor meta-circularity issue with &meta, it
137 is now more useful for subclasses
138 - added &get_attribute_map as an accessor for the
139 hash of attribute meta objects
140 - &compute_all_applicable_attributes now just returns
141 the attribute meta-object, rather than the HASH ref
142 since all the same info can be gotten from the
143 attribute meta-object itself
144 - updated docs & tests to reflect
145 - added &clone_instance method which does a deep clone
146 of the instance structure created by &construct_instance
147 - added docs & tests for this
148 - added Clone as a dependency
149 - added &new_object and &clone_object convience methods to
150 return blessed new or cloned instances
151 - they handle Class::MOP::Class singletons correctly too
152 - added docs & tests for this
153 - cleaned up the &constuct_class_instance so that it behaves
154 more like &construct_instance (and managed the singletons too)
155 - added the &check_metaclass_compatibility method to make sure
156 that metaclasses are upward and downward compatible.
157 - added tests and docs for this
160 - adjusting code to use the &Class::MOP::Class::meta
162 - adjusting code to use the metaclass pragma
164 0.05 Sat Feb. 4, 2006
166 - added the &attribute_metaclass and &method_metaclass
167 attributes which contain a metaclass name to use for
168 attributes/methods respectively
171 - bootstrap additional attributes for Class::MOP::Class
174 - adjusted the example code and tests to use the new
175 &attribute_metaclass feature of Class::MOP::Class
179 0.04 Fri Feb. 3, 2006
181 - some documentation suggestions from #perl6
183 * Class::MOP::Attribute
184 - improved error messages
187 - added new examples:
188 - AttributesWithHistory
189 - ClassEncapsultedAttributes
191 0.03 Fri Feb. 3, 2006
192 - converted to Module::Build instead of EU::MM
194 * Class::MOP::Attribute
195 - refactored method generation code
196 - attributes are now associated with class directly
199 - refactored the InsideOut example to take advantage
200 of the Class::MOP::Attribute refactoring
201 - changed example files to .pod files and hide thier
202 package names from PAUSE (I don't want to own these
203 namespaces really, they are just examples)
205 0.02 Thurs Feb. 2, 2006
206 - moving examples from t/lib/* to examples/*
207 - adding POD documentation to the examples
209 0.01 Thurs Feb. 2, 2006
