1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
5 - A number of modules have been updated to pass their tests or not
6 produce deprecation warnings with the latest version of Catalyst.
10 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst - has been updated to not produce
13 Catalyst::ActionRole::ACL - has been updated to fix failing tests
14 (although older versions still function perfectly with this
17 Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Store::DBIC - has been updated to fix
18 failing tests (although older versions still function perfectly
19 with this version of Catalyst).
21 Backward compatibility fixes:
23 - Fix calling MyApp->engine_class to set the engine class manually.
27 - Documentation which was in the now removed Catalyst::Engine::* classes
28 has been moved to Catalyst::Manual::Deployment
30 5.89003 2011-07-28 20:11:50 (TRIAL release)
32 Backward compatibility fixes:
34 - Application scripts which have not been upgraded to newer
35 Catalyst::Script::XXX style scripts have been fixed
39 - mod_perl handler fixed to work with application classes which have manually
42 - Scripts now force the Plack engine choice manually, rather than relying
43 on auto-detection, as the automatic mechanism gets it wrong if (for
44 example) Coro is loaded.
46 - Server script option for --fork --keepalive are now handled by loading
47 the Starman server, rather than silently ignored.
49 - Server script options for --background and --pid are now fixed by
50 using MooseX::Deamonize
52 - Plack middlewares to deal with issues in Lighttpd and IIS6 are now
53 automatically applied to applications and deployments which need them
54 (when there is not a user written .psgi script available).
55 This fixes compatibility with previous stable releases for applications
56 deployed in these environments.
60 - Catalyst::Test's remote_request method not uses Plack::Test to perform
64 - Added a Catalyst::PSGI manual page with information about writing a .psgi
65 file for your application.
67 - Catalyst::Uprading has been improved, and the status of old Catalyst
71 - Catalyst::Test's local_request function is now deprecated. You should just
72 use the normal request function against a local server instead.
74 5.80033 2011-07-24 16:09:00
77 - Fix Catalyst::Request so that the hostname accessor is not incorrectly
78 populated with 'localhost' if a reverse DNS lookup fails.
80 - Fix Path actions debug screen to display number of arguments
82 - Fix a regression that prevented configuring attributes for all actions using
83 ->config(actions => { '*' => \%attrs }) from working
85 - Append $\ in Catalyst::Response->print to more closely match
86 IO::Handle's behaviour.
88 - Fixed situation where a detach($action) from a forward within auto
89 was not breaking out correctly
91 - Fix the disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config setting
92 to also work in the $c->component method.
94 - Handle users setting cookies with an undef value by not trying to
95 output that cookie (rather than trying to do so and causing an exception
96 as previously happened). A warning is logged if this occurs in debug
98 - Update tests to ignore $ENV{CATALYST_HOME} where required
100 - Change repository metadata to point at git.
102 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Request::Upload
104 - Catalyst::Test: Fixes to action_ok, action_redirect and action_notfound
105 test functions to be better documented, and have better default test
108 - Update tests to ignore CATALYST_HOME env var.
110 5.89002 2011-03-02 11:30:00 (TRIAL release)
113 - Fix a couple of test failures caused by optional dependencies such as FCGI
117 - Simplified the API for getting a PSGI application code reference for a
118 Catalyst application for use in, for example, .psgi files. See
119 Catalyst::Upgrading for details.
121 5.89001 2011-03-01 15:27:00 (TRIAL release)
124 - Fixed command-line argument passing in Catalyst::Script::FastCGI.
126 - Fixed Catalyst::Engine::Stomp compatibility. Applications using
127 Catalyst::Engine::Stomp are believed to continue working without
128 any changes with the new Catalyst major version.
130 - Fixed issues auto-loading engine with older scripts.
133 - Catalyst::Engine::Wx is officially unsupported and BROKEN. If you
134 are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll
135 be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with
136 the new major version of Catalyst.
139 - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90
140 of Catalyst has been much improved.
142 5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00
145 - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of
146 $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value
147 to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start
149 Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined.
151 - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request
152 not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to
153 the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren)
155 - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly
158 - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number
159 of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for
160 PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path).
162 This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*)
163 type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements
167 - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to
168 allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally.
170 This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to
171 be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by
172 developers without changing their application code.
174 5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02
177 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
178 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
179 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
180 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
181 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.
183 - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty
184 body (e.g. doing a redirect)
186 5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release)
188 This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime.
192 - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have
193 one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything
194 the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen
195 through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI,
196 Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so
197 on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The
198 catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work.
200 If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or
201 anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine::
202 classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine
203 class, please tell us *now*.
205 5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
208 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
210 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
211 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
212 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
213 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
214 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
215 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
218 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
219 the Content-Length header appropriately)
220 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
221 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
222 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
223 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
224 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
225 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
227 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
228 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
229 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
230 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
231 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
232 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
233 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
234 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
237 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
238 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
240 5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
243 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
244 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
248 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
249 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
251 5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
254 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
256 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
257 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
259 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
261 5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
264 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
266 5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
269 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
270 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
271 load Utils before MyApp.pm
273 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
276 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
278 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
279 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
280 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
281 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
282 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
284 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
287 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
288 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
289 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
292 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
293 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
298 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
301 5.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
304 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
305 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
306 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
307 the default action creation.
310 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
311 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
312 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
313 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
314 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
315 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
316 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
319 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
321 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
323 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
325 5.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
328 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
329 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
330 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
331 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
332 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
335 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
336 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
339 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
340 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
341 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
342 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
344 5.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
347 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
348 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
349 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
350 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
351 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
352 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
353 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
354 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
357 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
358 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
359 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
361 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
362 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
363 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
364 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
367 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
368 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
371 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
372 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
375 5.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
378 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
379 the content type and content length if available.
381 Refactoring / optimizations:
382 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
383 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
384 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
385 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
386 screen as easy to write.
387 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
388 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
389 in parameter filtering (for example).
390 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
391 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
392 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
393 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
394 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
397 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
398 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
399 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
400 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
402 5.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
405 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
406 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
408 5.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
411 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
412 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
414 5.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
417 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
418 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
419 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
420 which should not be encoded.
421 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
422 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
424 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
425 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
426 any set of args/captures.
428 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
429 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
431 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
435 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
437 - Various minor typo fixes.
440 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
442 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
445 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
446 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
447 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
450 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
451 - Clarify documentation about debug
454 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
455 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
456 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
458 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
461 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
462 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
466 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
467 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
469 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
470 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
471 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
472 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
473 argv key in the options hash.
474 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
475 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
476 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
477 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
479 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
483 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
484 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
485 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
486 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
487 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
489 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
493 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
494 encoding test controller.
496 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
498 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
499 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
500 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
501 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
503 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
504 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
505 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
506 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
507 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
509 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
513 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
514 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
515 less packed with information of no use.
519 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
521 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
523 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
524 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
525 the single character '0'.
526 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
529 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
530 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
531 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
533 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
535 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
536 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
537 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
538 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
539 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
540 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
541 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
542 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
543 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
544 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
545 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
546 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
548 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
549 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
551 Refactoring / cleanups:
552 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
553 (and then skipped) normally.
556 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
558 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
561 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
562 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
563 on the old behaviour.
565 Refactoring / cleanups:
566 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
567 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
569 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
572 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
573 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
574 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
575 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
576 as there is no recommended alternative.
577 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
578 fallback for fully qualified component names.
579 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
580 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
581 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
582 startup, rather than with the first hit.
583 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
584 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
585 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
586 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
587 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
588 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
589 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
590 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
593 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
594 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
595 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
596 deprecated and causes warnings).
597 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
598 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
599 in the correct order.
600 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
602 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
603 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
604 is deprecated (RT#51489)
607 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
608 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
609 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
610 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
611 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
613 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
614 exception classes need to implement.
615 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
616 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
619 Refactoring / cleanups:
620 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
621 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
622 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
623 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
624 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
625 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
626 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
628 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
631 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
632 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
633 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
634 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
636 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
637 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
638 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
641 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
642 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
645 Refactoring / cleanups:
646 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
647 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
648 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
649 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
650 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
652 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
655 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
656 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
657 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
658 now loaded at most once + tests.
659 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
660 is returned to 'actions'.
661 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
662 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
664 Refactoring / cleanups:
665 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
666 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
669 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
670 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
671 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
673 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
676 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
677 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
680 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
683 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
684 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
685 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
687 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
690 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
691 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
692 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
694 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
697 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
698 application class immutable without that option.
699 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
700 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
702 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
703 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
704 (hopefully) future versions.
705 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
706 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
708 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
710 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
711 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
712 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
713 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
714 Request-URI of the Request-Line
716 Refactoring / cleanups:
717 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
718 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
719 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
720 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
721 known issues with 5.8.3.

723 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
726 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
727 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
728 for the controller namespace
729 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
730 expand_component_module (rjbs)
731 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
732 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
733 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
734 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
736 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
737 frontend port (jshirley)
738 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
742 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
743 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
744 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
745 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
748 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
751 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
752 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
753 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
755 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
756 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
757 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
758 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
759 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
760 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
764 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
765 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
766 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
769 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
772 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
773 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
775 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
776 in some environments.
777 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
778 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
779 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
780 except works correctly with closures.
781 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
782 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
783 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
785 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
786 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
787 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
790 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
791 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
792 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
793 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
794 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
795 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
797 Refactoring / cleanups:
798 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
799 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
800 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
801 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
803 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
804 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
805 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
807 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
808 again in Catalyst::Test
810 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00

814 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
817 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
820 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
821 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
822 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
824 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
827 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
828 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
831 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
832 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
836 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
837 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
838 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
839 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
840 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
842 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
843 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
844 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
845 controller naming. (random)

847 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
848 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
849 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
850 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
852 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
854 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
855 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
856 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
858 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
859 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
860 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
861 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
862 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
863 to report 'Unknown Error'
864 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
865 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
866 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
867 parse_on_demand is on
869 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
870 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
871 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.

880 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
881 Test::Aggregate is available.
882 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
883 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
884 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a

895 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
896 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
897 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
898 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
899 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
900 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
902 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
903 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
904 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.

906 configuration in your application.
908 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
909 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
910 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures

939 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
940 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
941 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
942 tries to chain to itself
944 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
945 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
946 - Tests for this (radek)
947 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance

949 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
950 - Tests for this (radek)
951 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
952 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)

962 in production versions
963 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
964 the correct metaclass
965 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
966 the restarter process
967 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
968 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
970 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
971 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
972 immutable restart correctly.
974 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
975 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
976 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically

990 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
991 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
992 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
993 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
994 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
996 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
997 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.

1048 Catalyst::Dispatcher
1049 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
1050 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
1051 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
1052 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
1053 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
1054 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance

1208 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
1209 throw warnings for two reasons:
1210 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
1211 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance
1213 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
1214 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
1215 method with a regex as the argument
