24 warning on recent Moose versions.
25 - Add delta documentation
26 - Clean up recursion errors
27 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
28 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
30 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
31 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended (t0m)
33 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
34 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
35 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
36 tries to chain to itself (t0m)
38 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
39 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with (t0m)
40 - Tests for this (radek)
41 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
42 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
43 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly (t0m)
44 - Tests for this (radek)
45 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
46 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
47 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
48 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
50 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
51 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
52 spurious warnings (t0m)
53 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme (t0m)

60 the restarter process (t0m)
61 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
62 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed (t0m)
63 - Tests for this (t0m)
64 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
65 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
66 immutable restart correctly. (t0m)
67 - Tests for this (t0m)
68 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
69 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm (t0m)

71 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)

84 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
85 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected. (rafl)
86 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
87 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
88 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
90 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
91 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.

126 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
127 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
128 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
129 it isn't a hashref (t0m)
130 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
131 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
132 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL) (t0m)

136 - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller (t0m)
137 - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix

144 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors (t0m)

146 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by

157 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server. (t0m)
158 - Tests for this (t0m)

160 test sync for engines easier (t0m)

163 components (Florian Ragwitz)
164 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional (Florian Ragwitz)
165 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
166 rather than the stringified ref. (t0m)

185 attributes, and use if from ::Engine rather than deleting
186 the key from the instance hash (t0m)
187 - Use handles on tree attribute of Catalyst::Stats to replace

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

355 - Allow multiple restart directories and added option to follow
356 symlinks in the HTTP::Restarter engine (Sebastian Willert)
