1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
4 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
5 encoding test controller.
6 - Skip test for outputting the wrong content length when a string
7 which has been utf-8 upgraded is output on Win32 as there is an
8 off by one error somewhere.
11 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
12 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
13 less packed with information of no use.
16 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
18 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
20 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
21 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
22 the single character '0'.
23 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
26 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
27 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
28 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
30 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
32 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
33 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
34 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
35 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
36 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
37 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
38 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
39 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
40 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
41 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
42 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
43 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
45 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
46 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
48 Refactoring / cleanups:
49 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
50 (and then skipped) normally.
53 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
55 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
58 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
59 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
62 Refactoring / cleanups:
63 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
64 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
66 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
69 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
70 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
71 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
72 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
73 as there is no recommended alternative.
74 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
75 fallback for fully qualified component names.
76 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
77 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
78 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
79 startup, rather than with the first hit.
80 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
81 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
82 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
83 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
84 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
85 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
86 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
87 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
90 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
91 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
92 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
93 deprecated and causes warnings).
94 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
95 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
97 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
99 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
100 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
101 is deprecated (RT#51489)
104 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
105 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
106 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
107 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
108 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
110 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
111 exception classes need to implement.
112 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
113 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
116 Refactoring / cleanups:
117 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
118 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
119 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
120 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
121 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
122 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
123 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
125 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
128 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
129 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
130 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
131 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
133 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
134 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
135 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
138 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
139 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
142 Refactoring / cleanups:
143 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
144 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
145 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
146 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
147 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
149 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
152 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
153 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
154 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
155 now loaded at most once + tests.
156 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
157 is returned to 'actions'.
158 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
159 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
161 Refactoring / cleanups:
162 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
163 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
166 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
167 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
168 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
170 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
173 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
174 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
177 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
180 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
181 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
182 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
184 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
187 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
188 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
189 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
191 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
194 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
195 application class immutable without that option.
196 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
197 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
199 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
200 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
201 (hopefully) future versions.
202 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
203 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
205 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
207 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
208 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
209 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
210 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
211 Request-URI of the Request-Line
213 Refactoring / cleanups:
214 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
215 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
216 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
217 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
218 known issues with 5.8.3.
219 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
220 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
223 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
224 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
225 for the controller namespace
226 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
227 expand_component_module (rjbs)
228 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
229 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
230 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
231 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
233 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
234 frontend port (jshirley)
235 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
239 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
240 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
241 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
242 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
245 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
248 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
249 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
250 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
252 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
253 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
254 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
255 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
256 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
257 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
261 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
262 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
263 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
266 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
269 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
270 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
272 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
273 in some environments.
274 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
275 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
276 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
277 except works correctly with closures.
278 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
279 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
280 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
282 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
283 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
284 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
287 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
288 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
289 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
290 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
291 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
292 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
294 Refactoring / cleanups:
295 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
296 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
297 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
298 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
300 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
301 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
302 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
304 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
305 again in Catalyst::Test
307 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
310 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
311 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
314 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
317 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
318 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
319 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
321 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
324 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
325 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
328 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
329 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
333 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
334 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
335 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
336 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
337 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
339 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
340 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
341 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
342 controller naming. (random)
343 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
344 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
345 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
346 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
347 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
349 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
351 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
352 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
353 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
355 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
356 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
357 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
358 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
359 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
360 to report 'Unknown Error'
361 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
362 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
363 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
364 parse_on_demand is on
366 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
367 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
368 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
369 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
370 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from

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

391 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
392 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
393 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
394 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
395 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
396 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
397 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
399 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
400 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
401 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
402 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
403 configuration in your application.
405 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
406 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
407 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
409 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
410 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
412 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
413 has been made private
414 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
415 the request parameters with undef + test
416 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
417 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
419 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
421 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
422 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
423 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
425 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
426 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
427 warning on recent Moose versions.
428 - Add delta documentation
429 - Clean up recursion errors
430 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
431 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
433 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
434 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
436 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
437 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
438 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
439 tries to chain to itself
441 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
442 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
443 - Tests for this (radek)
444 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
445 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
446 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
447 - Tests for this (radek)
448 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
449 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
450 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
451 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
453 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
454 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
456 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
458 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
459 in production versions
460 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
461 the correct metaclass
462 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
463 the restarter process
464 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
465 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
467 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
468 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
469 immutable restart correctly.
471 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
472 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
473 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
474 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
475 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test

479 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
480 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
481 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
482 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
483 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
484 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
485 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
486 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
487 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
488 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
489 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
490 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
491 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
493 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
494 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
495 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
498 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.

527 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
528 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
529 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
530 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
532 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
533 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
534 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)
535 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
536 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now
537 - Bump Moose dependency to fix make_immutable bug
538 - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller
539 - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix
540 test for Catalyst-Engine-Apache
541 - Bump version of MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast

543 breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast
544 - Remove unused action_container_class attribute from
546 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
547 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
548 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
549 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
550 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
551 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
553 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
554 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
556 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
557 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
558 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
560 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
561 test sync for engines easier
562 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
563 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
565 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
566 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
567 rather than the stringified ref.
568 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup
569 method is called, fixing issues with plugins which have their
570 own new methods by inlining a constructor on MyApp
