5 - Don't guess engine class names when setting an engine through
8 5.90003 - 2011-10-05 08:32:00
11 - Make default body reponses for 302s W3C compliant. RT#71237
13 - Fix issue where groups of attributes to override controller actions
14 in config would be (incorrectly) overwritten, if the parser for that
15 attribute mangled the contents of the attribute. This was found
16 with Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole, where Does => [ '+Foo' ]
17 would be transformed to Does => [ 'Foo' ] and written back to config,
18 whereas Does => '+Foo' would not be changed in config. RT#65463
22 - Set a matching Content-type for the redirect if Catalyst sets the
23 body. This is for compatibility with a WatchGuard Firewall.
25 Backward compatibility fixes:
27 - Restore (an almost empty) Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to the dist for old
28 scripts which explictly require Catalyst::Engine::HTTP
32 - Document Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication fails tests unless
33 you use the latest version with Catalyst 5.9
35 - Clarify that prepare is called as a class method
37 - Clarify use of uri_for further. RT#57011
39 5.90002 - 2011-08-22 21:44:00
40 Backward compatibility fixes:
42 - Deploying via mod_perl in some cases is fixed by making
43 Catalyst::EngineLoader detect mod_perl in more generic
45 https://github.com/miyagawa/Plack/issues/239
49 - Fix incorrect example in Catalyst::PSGI.
50 - Add note that if you are using the PSGI engine, then $c->req->env
51 needs to become $c->engine->env when you upgrade.
53 5.90001 - 2011-08-15 22:42
55 Realise that we accidentally chopped a digit off the versioning scheme
56 without anyone noticing, which is a bad thing.
58 Feel like a fool. Well done t0m.
62 5.9000 - 2011-08-15 22:18
64 See Catalyst::Delta for the major changes in this release.
66 Changelog since the last TRIAL release:
68 Backward compatibility fixes:
70 - Fix calling MyApp->engine_class to set the engine class manually.
72 - Re-add a $res->headers->{status} field to Catalyst::Test responses.
73 This _should_ be accessed with $c->res->code instead, but is here
74 for backward compatibility.
78 - Documentation which was in the now removed Catalyst::Engine::* classes
79 has been moved to Catalyst::Manual::Deployment
83 - nginx specific behaviour is removed as it is not needed with any
84 web server configuration I can come up with (recommended config is
85 documented in Catalst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI)
87 5.89003 2011-07-28 20:11:50 (TRIAL release)
89 Backward compatibility fixes:
91 - Application scripts which have not been upgraded to newer
92 Catalyst::Script::XXX style scripts have been fixed
96 - mod_perl handler fixed to work with application classes which have manually
99 - Scripts now force the Plack engine choice manually, rather than relying
100 on auto-detection, as the automatic mechanism gets it wrong if (for
101 example) Coro is loaded.
103 - Server script option for --fork --keepalive are now handled by loading
104 the Starman server, rather than silently ignored.
106 - Server script options for --background and --pid are now fixed by
107 using MooseX::Deamonize
109 - Plack middlewares to deal with issues in Lighttpd and IIS6 are now
110 automatically applied to applications and deployments which need them
111 (when there is not a user written .psgi script available).
112 This fixes compatibility with previous stable releases for applications
113 deployed in these environments.
117 - Catalyst::Test's remote_request method not uses Plack::Test to perform
121 - Added a Catalyst::PSGI manual page with information about writing a .psgi
122 file for your application.
124 - Catalyst::Uprading has been improved, and the status of old Catalyst
128 - Catalyst::Test's local_request function is now deprecated. You should just
129 use the normal request function against a local server instead.
131 5.80033 2011-07-24 16:09:00
134 - Fix Catalyst::Request so that the hostname accessor is not incorrectly
135 populated with 'localhost' if a reverse DNS lookup fails.
137 - Fix Path actions debug screen to display number of arguments
139 - Fix a regression that prevented configuring attributes for all actions using
140 ->config(actions => { '*' => \%attrs }) from working
142 - Append $\ in Catalyst::Response->print to more closely match
143 IO::Handle's behaviour.
145 - Fixed situation where a detach($action) from a forward within auto
146 was not breaking out correctly
148 - Fix the disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config setting
149 to also work in the $c->component method.
151 - Handle users setting cookies with an undef value by not trying to
152 output that cookie (rather than trying to do so and causing an exception
153 as previously happened). A warning is logged if this occurs in debug
155 - Update tests to ignore $ENV{CATALYST_HOME} where required
157 - Change repository metadata to point at git.
159 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Request::Upload
161 - Catalyst::Test: Fixes to action_ok, action_redirect and action_notfound
162 test functions to be better documented, and have better default test
165 - Update tests to ignore CATALYST_HOME env var.
167 5.89002 2011-03-02 11:30:00 (TRIAL release)
170 - Fix a couple of test failures caused by optional dependencies such as FCGI
174 - Simplified the API for getting a PSGI application code reference for a
175 Catalyst application for use in, for example, .psgi files. See
176 Catalyst::Upgrading for details.
178 5.89001 2011-03-01 15:27:00 (TRIAL release)
181 - Fixed command-line argument passing in Catalyst::Script::FastCGI.
183 - Fixed Catalyst::Engine::Stomp compatibility. Applications using
184 Catalyst::Engine::Stomp are believed to continue working without
185 any changes with the new Catalyst major version.
187 - Fixed issues auto-loading engine with older scripts.
190 - Catalyst::Engine::Wx is officially unsupported and BROKEN. If you
191 are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll
192 be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with
193 the new major version of Catalyst.
196 - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90
197 of Catalyst has been much improved.
199 5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00
202 - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of
203 $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value
204 to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start
206 Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined.
208 - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request
209 not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to
210 the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren)
212 - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly
215 - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number
216 of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for
217 PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path).
219 This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*)
220 type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements
224 - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to
225 allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally.
227 This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to
228 be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by
229 developers without changing their application code.
231 5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02
234 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
235 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
236 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
237 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
238 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.
240 - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty
241 body (e.g. doing a redirect)
243 5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release)
245 This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime.
249 - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have
250 one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything
251 the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen
252 through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI,
253 Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so
254 on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The
255 catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work.
257 If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or
258 anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine::
259 classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine
260 class, please tell us *now*.
262 5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
265 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
267 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
268 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
269 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
270 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
271 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
272 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
275 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
276 the Content-Length header appropriately)
277 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
278 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
279 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
280 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
281 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
282 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
284 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
285 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
286 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
287 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
288 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
289 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
290 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
291 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
294 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
295 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
297 5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
300 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
301 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
305 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
306 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
308 5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
311 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
313 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
314 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
316 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
318 5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
321 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
323 5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
326 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
327 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
328 load Utils before MyApp.pm
330 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
333 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
335 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
336 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
337 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
338 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
339 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
341 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
344 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
345 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
346 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
349 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
350 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
355 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
358 5.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
361 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
362 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
363 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
364 the default action creation.
367 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
368 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
369 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
370 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
371 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
372 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
373 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
376 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
378 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
380 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
382 5.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
385 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
386 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
387 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
388 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
389 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
392 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
393 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
396 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
397 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
398 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
399 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
401 5.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
404 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
405 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
406 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
407 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
408 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
409 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
410 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
411 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
414 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
415 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
416 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
418 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
419 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
420 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
421 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
424 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
425 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
428 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
429 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
432 5.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
435 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
436 the content type and content length if available.
438 Refactoring / optimizations:
439 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
440 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
441 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
442 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
443 screen as easy to write.
444 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
445 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
446 in parameter filtering (for example).
447 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
448 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
449 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
450 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
451 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
454 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
455 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
456 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
457 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
459 5.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
462 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
463 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
465 5.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
468 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
469 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
471 5.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
474 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
475 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
476 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
477 which should not be encoded.
478 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
479 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
481 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
482 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
483 any set of args/captures.
485 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
486 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
488 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
492 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
494 - Various minor typo fixes.
497 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
499 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
502 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
503 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
504 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
507 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
508 - Clarify documentation about debug
511 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
512 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
513 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
515 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
518 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
519 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
523 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
524 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
526 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
527 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
528 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
529 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
530 argv key in the options hash.
531 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
532 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
533 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
534 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
536 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
540 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
541 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
542 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
543 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
544 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
546 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
550 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
551 encoding test controller.
553 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
555 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
556 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
557 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
558 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
560 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
561 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
562 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
563 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
564 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
566 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
570 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
571 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
572 less packed with information of no use.
576 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
578 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
580 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
581 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
582 the single character '0'.
583 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
586 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
587 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
588 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
590 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
592 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
593 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
594 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
595 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
596 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
597 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
598 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
599 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
600 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
601 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
602 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
603 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
605 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
606 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
608 Refactoring / cleanups:
609 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
610 (and then skipped) normally.
613 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
615 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
618 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
619 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
620 on the old behaviour.
622 Refactoring / cleanups:
623 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
624 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
626 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
629 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
630 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
631 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
632 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
633 as there is no recommended alternative.
634 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
635 fallback for fully qualified component names.
636 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
637 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
638 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
639 startup, rather than with the first hit.
640 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
641 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
642 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
643 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
644 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
645 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
646 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
647 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
650 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
651 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
652 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
653 deprecated and causes warnings).
654 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
655 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
656 in the correct order.
657 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
659 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
660 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
661 is deprecated (RT#51489)
664 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
665 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
666 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
667 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
668 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
670 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
671 exception classes need to implement.
672 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
673 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
676 Refactoring / cleanups:
677 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
678 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
679 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
680 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
681 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
682 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
683 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
685 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
688 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
689 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
690 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
691 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
693 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
694 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
695 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
698 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
699 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
702 Refactoring / cleanups:
703 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
704 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
705 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
706 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
707 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
709 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
712 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
713 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
714 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
715 now loaded at most once + tests.
716 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
717 is returned to 'actions'.
718 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
719 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
721 Refactoring / cleanups:
722 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
723 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
726 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
727 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
728 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
730 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
733 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
734 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
737 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
740 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
741 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
742 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
744 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
747 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
748 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
749 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
751 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
754 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
755 application class immutable without that option.
756 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
757 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
759 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
760 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
761 (hopefully) future versions.
762 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
763 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
765 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
767 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
768 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
769 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
770 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
771 Request-URI of the Request-Line
773 Refactoring / cleanups:
774 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
775 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
776 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
777 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
778 known issues with 5.8.3.
779 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
780 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
783 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
784 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
785 for the controller namespace
786 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
787 expand_component_module (rjbs)
788 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
789 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
790 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
791 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
793 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
794 frontend port (jshirley)
795 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
799 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
800 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
801 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
802 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
805 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
808 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
809 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
810 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
812 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
813 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
814 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
815 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
816 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
817 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
821 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
822 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
823 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
826 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
829 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
830 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
832 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
833 in some environments.
834 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
835 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
836 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
837 except works correctly with closures.
838 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
839 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
840 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
842 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
843 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
844 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
847 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
848 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
849 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
850 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
851 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
852 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
854 Refactoring / cleanups:
855 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
856 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
857 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
858 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
860 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
861 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
862 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
864 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
865 again in Catalyst::Test
867 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
870 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
871 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
874 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
877 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
878 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
879 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
881 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
884 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
885 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
888 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
889 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
893 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
894 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
895 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
896 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
897 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
899 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
900 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
901 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application

904 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
905 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
906 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741

909 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
911 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
912 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
913 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
915 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
916 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
917 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
918 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
919 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
920 to report 'Unknown Error'
921 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
922 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
923 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
924 parse_on_demand is on
926 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
927 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
928 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.

937 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
938 Test::Aggregate is available.
939 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
940 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without

952 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
953 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
954 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
955 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
956 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
957 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
959 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
960 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
961 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.

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

991 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
993 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
994 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
996 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
997 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
998 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
999 tries to chain to itself
1001 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
1002 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
1003 - Tests for this (radek)
1004 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
1005 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
1006 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
1007 - Tests for this (radek)

1016 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
1018 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
1019 in production versions
1020 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
1021 the correct metaclass
1022 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
1023 the restarter process
1024 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
1025 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
1027 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
1028 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
1029 immutable restart correctly.
1031 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
1032 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
1033 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically

1045 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
1046 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action

1048 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
1049 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
1050 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
1051 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
1053 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
1054 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
1055 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
1058 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.

1088 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
1089 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter

1093 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
1094 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)

1105 Catalyst::Dispatcher
1106 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
1107 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
1108 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
1109 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL

1111 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
1113 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
1114 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
1116 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
1117 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
1118 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
1120 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
1121 test sync for engines easier
1122 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
1123 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
1125 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
1126 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
1127 rather than the stringified ref.
1128 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup

1132 - Fix bug causing Catalyst::Request::Upload's basename method
1134 - Test for this (Carl Franks)
