4 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
6 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
8 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
9 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
10 the single character '0'.
11 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
14 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
15 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
16 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
18 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
20 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
21 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
22 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
23 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
24 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
25 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
26 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
27 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
28 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
29 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
30 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
31 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
33 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
34 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
36 Refactoring / cleanups:
37 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
38 (and then skipped) normally.
41 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
43 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
46 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
47 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
50 Refactoring / cleanups:
51 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
52 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
54 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
57 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
58 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
59 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
60 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
61 as there is no recommended alternative.
62 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
63 fallback for fully qualified component names.
64 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
65 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
66 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
67 startup, rather than with the first hit.
68 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
69 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
70 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
71 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
72 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
73 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
74 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
75 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
78 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
79 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
80 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
81 deprecated and causes warnings).
82 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
83 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
85 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
87 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
88 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
89 is deprecated (RT#51489)
92 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
93 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
94 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
95 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
96 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
98 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
99 exception classes need to implement.
100 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
101 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
104 Refactoring / cleanups:
105 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
106 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
107 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
108 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
109 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
110 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
111 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
113 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
116 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
117 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
118 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
119 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
121 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
122 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
123 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
126 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
127 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
130 Refactoring / cleanups:
131 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
132 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
133 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
134 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
135 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
137 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
140 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
141 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
142 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
143 now loaded at most once + tests.
144 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
145 is returned to 'actions'.
146 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
147 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
149 Refactoring / cleanups:
150 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
151 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
154 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
155 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
156 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
158 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
161 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
162 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
165 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
168 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
169 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
170 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
172 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
175 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
176 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
177 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
179 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
182 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
183 application class immutable without that option.
184 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
185 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
187 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
188 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
189 (hopefully) future versions.
190 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
191 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
193 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
195 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
196 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
197 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
198 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
199 Request-URI of the Request-Line
201 Refactoring / cleanups:
202 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
203 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
204 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
205 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
206 known issues with 5.8.3.
207 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
208 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
211 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
212 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
213 for the controller namespace
214 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
215 expand_component_module (rjbs)
216 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
217 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
218 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
219 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
221 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
222 frontend port (jshirley)
223 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
227 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
228 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
229 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
230 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
233 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
236 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
237 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
238 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
240 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
241 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
242 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
243 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
244 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
245 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
249 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
250 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
251 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
254 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
257 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
258 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
260 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
261 in some environments.
262 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
263 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
264 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
265 except works correctly with closures.
266 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
267 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
268 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
270 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
271 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
272 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
275 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
276 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
277 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
278 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
279 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
280 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
282 Refactoring / cleanups:
283 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
284 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
285 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
286 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
288 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
289 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
290 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
292 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
293 again in Catalyst::Test
295 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
298 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
299 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
302 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
305 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
306 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
307 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
309 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
312 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
313 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
316 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
317 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
321 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
322 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
323 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
324 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
325 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
327 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
328 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
329 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
330 controller naming. (random)
331 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
332 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
333 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
334 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
335 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
337 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
339 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
340 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
341 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
343 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
344 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
345 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
346 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
347 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
348 to report 'Unknown Error'
349 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
350 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
351 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
352 parse_on_demand is on
354 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
355 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
356 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
357 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
358 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from

360 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
361 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
362 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
364 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
365 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
366 Test::Aggregate is available.
367 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
368 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
369 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
370 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
371 disabling functionality from base controllers.
372 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
373 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
374 incompatibility issues in some cases.

377 - Fix RT#43375 by sorting results before testing them
378 - Fixes for uri_for_action when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex
379 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
380 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
381 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
382 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
383 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
384 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
385 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
387 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
388 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
389 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
390 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
391 configuration in your application.
393 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
394 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
395 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
397 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
398 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
400 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
401 has been made private
402 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
403 the request parameters with undef + test
404 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
405 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
407 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
409 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
410 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
411 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
413 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
414 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
415 warning on recent Moose versions.
416 - Add delta documentation
417 - Clean up recursion errors
418 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
419 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
421 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
422 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
424 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
425 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
426 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
427 tries to chain to itself
429 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
430 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
431 - Tests for this (radek)
432 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
433 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
434 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
435 - Tests for this (radek)
436 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
437 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
438 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
439 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
441 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
442 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
444 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
446 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
447 in production versions
448 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
449 the correct metaclass
450 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
451 the restarter process
452 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
453 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
455 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
456 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
457 immutable restart correctly.
459 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
460 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
461 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
462 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
463 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test
464 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment
465 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
466 - namespace::clean related cleanups
467 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
468 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
469 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
470 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
471 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
472 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
473 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
474 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
475 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
476 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
477 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
478 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
479 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
481 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
482 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
483 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
486 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
489 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00
490 - Disallow writing to config after setup
491 - Disallow calling setup more than once

508 - Improve docs for visit (mateu)
509 - Add docs for finalize hook (dhoss)
510 - Added ru/ua translations to error page

512 resolution uses regex fallback. (jhannah)
513 - Handle leading CRLF in HTTP requests sometimes sent by IE6 in
515 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
516 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
517 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
518 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
520 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
521 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
522 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)
523 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
524 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now
525 - Bump Moose dependency to fix make_immutable bug
526 - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller
527 - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix
528 test for Catalyst-Engine-Apache
529 - Bump version of MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast
530 - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
531 breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast
532 - Remove unused action_container_class attribute from
534 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
535 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
536 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
537 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
538 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
539 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
541 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
542 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
544 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
545 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
546 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
548 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
549 test sync for engines easier
550 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
551 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
553 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
554 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
555 rather than the stringified ref.
556 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup
557 method is called, fixing issues with plugins which have their
558 own new methods by inlining a constructor on MyApp

560 - Fix bug causing Catalyst::Request::Upload's basename method
562 - Test for this (Carl Franks)
563 - Fix loading of classes which do not define any symbols to not
564 die, as it didn't in 5.70
566 - Bump MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast dependency
567 to force new version which fixes a lot of plugins
568 - Make log levels additive, and add documentation and tests

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