1 Revision history for Perl extension Moose
4 * Moose::Util::MetaRole
5 - This simplifies the application of roles to any meta class, as
6 well as the base object class. Reimplemented metaclass traits
7 using this module. (Dave Rolsky)
9 0.55_03 Fri August 29, 2008
10 * No changes from 0.55_02 except increasing the Class::MOP
11 dependency to 0.64_07.
13 0.55_02 Fri August 29, 2008
14 * Makefile.PL and Moose.pm
15 - explicitly require Perl 5.8.0+ (Dave Rolsky)
17 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
18 - Fix warnings from find_type_constraint if the type is not
21 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
22 - Predicate methods (equals/is_a_type_of/is_subtype_of) now
23 return false if the type you specify cannot be found in the
24 type registry, rather than throwing an unhelpful and
25 coincidental exception. (t0m).
26 - added docs & test for this (t0m)
28 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Registry
29 - add_type_constraint now throws an exception if a parameter is
31 - added docs & test for this (t0m)
33 * Moose::Cookbook::FAQ
34 - Added a faq entry on the difference between "role" and "trait"
38 - Fixed a bug that caused role composition to not see a required
39 method when that method was provided by another role being
40 composed at the same time. (Dave Rolsky)
41 - test and bug finding (tokuhirom)
43 0.55_01 Wed August 20, 2008
45 !! Calling Moose::init_meta as a function is now !!
46 !! deprecated. Please see the Moose.pm docs for details. !!
48 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
49 - Fix inlined constructor so that values produced by default
50 or builder methods are coerced as required. (t0m)
51 - added test for this (t0m)
53 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
54 - A lazy attribute with a default or builder did not attempt to
55 coerce the default value. The immutable code _did_
57 - added test for this (t0m)
60 - This is a new helper module for writing "Moose-alike"
61 modules. This should make the lives of MooseX module authors
62 much easier. (Dave Rolsky)
65 * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe5
66 - Implemented metaclass traits (and wrote a recipe for it):
68 use Moose -traits => 'Foo'
70 This should make writing small Moose extensions a little
73 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe1
74 - Removed any examples of direct hashref access, and applied an
75 editorial axe to reduce verbosity. (Dave Rolsky)
77 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe1
78 - Also applied an editorial axe here. (Dave Rolsky)
81 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
82 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
83 - Rewrote extending and embedding moose documentation and
84 recipes to use Moose::Exporter (Dave Rolsky)
88 - These two modules now warn when you load them from the main
89 package "main" package, because we will not export sugar to
90 main. Previously it just did nothing. (Dave Rolsky)
93 - Now provide an init_meta method just like Moose.pm, and you
94 can call this to provide an alternate role metaclass. (Dave
95 Rolsky and nothingmuch)
96 - get_method_map now respects the package cache flag (nothingmuch)
99 - Two new methods - add_method and wrap_method_body
103 - Optimizations including allowing constructors to accept hash
104 refs, making many more classes immutable, and making
105 constructors immutable. (nothingmuch)
107 0.55 Sun August 3, 2008
108 * Moose::Meta::Attribute

115 the type constraints (RT #37569)
116 - added tests for this (Charles Alderman)
118 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
119 - fix coerce to accept anon types like subtype can (mst)
122 - reorganized the recipes into sections - Basics, Roles, Meta,
123 Extending - and wrote abstracts for each section (Dave Rolsky)
125 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe10
126 - A new recipe that demonstrates operator overloading
127 in combination with Moose. (bluefeet)
129 * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe1
130 - an introduction to what meta is and why you'd want to make
131 your own metaclass extensions (Dave Rolsky)
133 * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe4
134 - a very simple metaclass example (Dave Rolsky)
136 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
137 - how to write a Moose-alike module to use your own object base
140 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
141 - how to write modules with an API just like C<Moose.pm> (Dave
145 - Tons of fixes, both syntactical and grammatical (Dave
146 Rolsky, Paul Fenwick)
148 0.54 Thurs. July 3, 2008
149 ... this is not my day today ...
151 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
152 - fixed legal_options_for_inheritance such that
153 clone_and_inherit options still works for
154 Class::MOP::Attribute objects and therefore
155 does not break MooseX::AttributeHelpers
158 0.53 Thurs. July 3, 2008
159 * Whoops, I guess I should run 'make manifest' before
160 actually releasing the module. No actual changes
161 in this release, except the fact that it includes
162 the changes that I didn't include in the last
165 0.52 Thurs. July 3, 2008
167 - added "FEATURE REQUESTS" section to the Moose docs
168 to properly direct people (stevan) (RT #34333)
169 - making 'extends' croak if it is passed a Role since
170 this is not ever something you want to do
171 (fixed by stevan, found by obra)
172 - added tests for this (stevan)
175 - adding support for DOES (as in UNIVERSAL::DOES)
177 - added test for this

197 - add unimport so "no Moose::Role" actually does
200 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToRole
201 - when RoleA did RoleB, and RoleA aliased a method from RoleB in
202 order to provide its own implementation, that method still got
203 added to the list of required methods for consumers of
204 RoleB. Now an aliased method is only added to the list of
205 required methods if the role doing the aliasing does not
206 provide its own implementation. See Recipe 11 for an example
207 of all this. (Dave Rolsky)
208 - added tests for this
210 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
211 - when a single argument that wasn't a hashref was provided to
212 an immutabilized constructor, the error message was very

287 (late night release engineering)--
289 - fixing the version is META.yml, no functional
290 changes in this release
292 0.46 Wed. May 28, 2008
293 !! This version now approx. 20-25% !!
294 !! faster with new Class::MOP 0.57 !!

335 is currently not supported in roles,
336 but, ... patches welcome
337 - All usage of Carp::confess have been replaced
338 by Carp::croak in the "keyword" functions since
339 the stack trace is usually not helpful
342 - All usage of Carp::confess have been replaced
343 by Carp::croak in the "keyword" functions since
344 the stack trace is usually not helpful

394 show where the error is (thanks mst)
397 - BUILDALL and DEMOLISHALL now call
398 ->body when looping through the
399 methods, to avoid the overloaded

770 - basic support for coercion to ArrayRef and
771 HashRef for containers (sartak)
772 - added tests for this
774 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
775 - coercions will now create subtypes as needed
776 so you can now add coercions to parameterized
777 types without having to explictly define them
778 - added tests for this
780 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
781 - allow subclasses to decide whether we need
782 to copy the value into a new variable (sartak)
784 0.32 Tues. Dec. 4, 2007
785 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints

787 they should inherit the parent's coercion
788 - added tests for this
789 - you can now define multiple coercions on
790 a single type at different times instead of
791 having to do it all in one place
792 - added tests for this
794 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
795 - there is now a default constraint of sub { 1 }
796 instead of Moose::Util::TypeConstraints setting
799 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
800 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion::Union
801 - added the &has_coercion_for_type and
802 &add_type_coercions methods to support the

806 0.31 Mon. Nov. 26, 2007
807 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
808 - made the +attr syntax handle extending types with
809 parameters. So "has '+foo' => (isa => 'ArrayRef[Int]')"
810 now works if the original foo is an ArrayRef.
811 - added tests for this.
812 - delegation now works even if the attribute does not
813 have a reader method using the get_read_method_ref
814 method from Class::MOP::Attribute.
815 - added tests for this
816 - added docs for this
818 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
819 - passing no "additional attribute info" to
820 &find_or_create_type_constraint will no longer

822 instead it will just return undef.
823 - added docs for this
825 0.30 Fri. Nov. 23, 2007
826 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor

838 - added tests for this
841 - adding the link to Recipie 11 (written by Sartak)
842 - adding test for SYNOPSIS code
845 - New tests for builder bug. Upon instantiation, if an

885 when they encounter overriden or modified
886 methods from a class (thanks to confound).
887 - added tests for this
889 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraint
890 - fixed the type notation parser so that
891 the | always creates a union and so is
892 no longer a valid type char (thanks to
893 konobi, mugwump and #moose for working
895 - added more tests for this
897 0.26 Thurs. Sept. 27, 2007
900 * Parameterized Types
901 We now support parameterized collection types, such as:
902 ArrayRef[Int] # array or integers
903 HashRef[Object] # a hash with object values
904 They can also be nested:
905 ArrayRef[HashRef[RegExpr]] # an array of hashes with regexpr values
906 And work with the type unions as well:
907 ArrayRef[Int | Str] # array of integers of strings
909 * Better Framework Extendability
910 Moose.pm is now "extendable" such that it is now much
911 easier to extend the framework and add your own keywords
912 and customizations. See the "EXTENDING AND EMBEDDING MOOSE"
913 section of the Moose.pm docs.
916 In an effort to begin documenting some of the various
917 details of Moose as well as some common idioms, we have
918 created Moose::Cookbook::Snacks as a place to find
919 small (easily digestable) nuggets of Moose code.
922 ~ Several doc updates/cleanup thanks to castaway ~
924 - converted build system to use Module::Install instead of
925 Module::Build (thanks to jrockway)
928 - added all the meta classes to the immutable list and

963 * Moose::Cookbook::Recipe4
964 - updated it to use the new ArrayRef[MyType] construct
965 - updated the accompanying test as well
967 +++ Major Refactor of the Type Constraint system +++
968 +++ with new features added as well +++
970 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraint

973 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Registry to do it
974 - added more sophisticated type notation parsing
976 - added tests for this
978 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
979 - some minor adjustments to make subclassing easier
980 - added the package_defined_in attribute so that we
981 can track where the type constraints are created
983 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
984 - this is now been refactored to be a subclass of
985 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
987 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion::Union
988 - this has been added to service the newly refactored
989 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union and is itself
990 a subclass of Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion

1004 (thanks to shlomif).
1006 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1007 - required attributes now will no longer accept undef
1008 from the constructor, even if there is a default and lazy

1046 - added tests for these
1048 0.24 Tues. July 3, 2007
1049 ~ Some doc updates/cleanup ~
1051 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1052 - added support for roles to be given as parameters
1053 to the 'handles' option.
1054 - added tests and docs for this

1066 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1067 - fix inlined constructor for hierarchy with multiple BUILD methods (mst)

1076 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1077 - fix for prototype undeclared issue when Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1078 loaded before consumers (e.g. Moose::Meta::Attribute) by predeclaring
1079 prototypes for functions
1080 - added the ClassName type constraint, this checks for strings
1081 which will respond true to ->isa(UNIVERSAL).

1091 - fix reader presedence bug in Moose::Meta::Attribute + tests
1094 - Foo->new(undef) now gets ignored, it is assumed you meant to pass
1095 a HASH-ref and missed. This produces better error messages then
1096 having it die cause undef is not a HASH.
1097 - added tests for this
1099 0.21 Thursday, May 2nd, 2007
1101 - added SUPER_SLOT and INNER_SLOT class hashes to support unimport

1119 roles would blow up. Thanks to Aankhen`` for
1120 finding this insidious error, and it's solution.
1122 ~~ lots of spelling and grammer fixes in the docs,
1123 many many thanks to rlb3 and Aankhen for these :)
1125 0.20 Friday, April 6th, 2007
1126 >> I messed up the SKIP logic in one test
1127 so this release is just to fix that.
1130 - 'has' now also accepts an ARRAY ref
1131 to create multiple attrs (see docs)
1132 (thanks to konobi for this)
1133 - added tests and docs
1135 0.19 Thurs. April 5th, 2007
1136 ~~ More documentation updates ~~
1138 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1139 - 'type' now supports messages as well
1140 thanks to phaylon for finding this
1141 - added tests for this
1142 - added &list_all_type_constraints and
1143 &list_all_builtin_type_constraints
1144 functions to facilitate introspection.
1146 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1147 - fixed regexp 'handles' declarations
1148 to build the list of delegated methods
1149 correctly (and not override important
1150 things like &new) thanks to ashleyb
1152 - added tests and docs for this
1153 - added the 'documentation' attributes
1154 so that you can actually document your
1155 attributes and inspect them through the
1157 - added tests and docs for this
1159 * Moose::Meta::Class
1160 - when loading custom attribute metaclasses
1161 it will first look in for the class in the
1162 Moose::Meta::Attribute::Custom::$name, and
1163 then default to just loading $name.
1164 - added tests and docs for this
1166 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1167 - type constraints now stringify to their names.
1168 - added test for this
1171 - added tests to assure we work with Module::Refresh
1172 - added stricter test skip logic in the Moose POOP
1173 test, ask Rob Kinyon why.
1174 - *cough* DBM::Deep 1.0 backwards compatability sucks *cough* ;)
1176 0.18 Sat. March 10, 2007
1177 ~~ Many, many documentation updates ~~
1180 - We now use Class::MOP::load_class to
1182 - added tests to show types and subtypes
1183 working with Declare::Constraints::Simple
1184 and Test::Deep as constraint engines.
1187 !! You must have Class::MOP 0.37_001 !!
1188 !! for this developer release to work !!
1190 This release was primarily adding the immutable
1191 feature to Moose. An immutable class is one which
1192 you promise not to alter. When you set the class
1193 as immutable it will perform various bits of
1194 memoization and inline certain part of the code
1195 (constructors, destructors and accessors). This
1196 minimizes (and in some cases totally eliminates)
1197 one of Moose's biggest performance hits. This
1198 feature is not on by default, and is 100% optional.
1199 It has several configurable bits as well, so you
1200 can pick and choose to your specific needs.
1202 The changes involved in this were fairly wide and
1203 highly specific, but 100% backwards compatible, so
1204 I am not going to enumerate them here. If you are
1205 truely interested in what was changed, please do
1208 0.17 Tues. Nov. 14, 2006
1209 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1210 - bugfix for read-only accessors which
1211 are have a type constraint and lazy.
1212 Thanks to chansen for finding it.
1214 0.16 Tues. Nov. 14, 2006
1216 There are some speed improvements in this release,
1217 but they are only the begining, so stay tuned.
1220 - BUILDALL and DEMOLISHALL no longer get
1221 called unless they actually need to be.
1222 This gave us a signifigant speed boost
1223 for the cases when there is no BUILD or
1224 DEMOLISH method present.
1226 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1227 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1228 - added an 'optimize_as' option to the
1229 type constraint, which allows for a
1230 hand optimized version of the type
1231 constraint to be used when possible.
1232 - Any internally created type constraints
1233 now provide an optimized version as well.
1235 0.15 Sun. Nov. 5, 2006
1237 This version of Moose *must* have Class::MOP 0.36 in order
1238 to work correctly. A number of small internal tweaks have
1239 been made in order to be compatible with that release.
1241 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1242 - added &unimport so that you can clean out
1243 your class namespace of these exported
1246 * Moose::Meta::Class
1247 - fixed minor issue which occasionally
1248 comes up during global destruction
1250 - moved Moose::Meta::Method::Overriden into
1254 - moved Moose::Meta::Role::Method into
1257 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1258 - changed how we do type checks so that
1259 we reduce the overall cost, but still
1262 - moved accessor generation methods to
1263 Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor to
1264 conform to the API changes from
1267 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1268 - changed how constraints are compiled
1269 so that we do less recursion and more
1270 iteration. This makes the type check
1272 - moved Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
1275 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1276 - created this from methods formerly found in
1277 Moose::Meta::Attribute
1279 * Moose::Meta::Role::Method
1280 - moved this from Moose::Meta::Role
1282 * Moose::Meta::Method::Overriden
1283 - moved this from Moose::Meta::Class
1285 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
1286 - moved this from Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1288 0.14 Mon. Oct. 9, 2006
1290 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1291 - fixed lazy attributes which were not getting
1292 checked with the type constraint (thanks ashley)
1293 - added tests for this
1294 - removed the over-enthusiastic DWIMery of the
1295 automatic ArrayRef and HashRef defaults, it
1296 broke predicates in an ugly way.
1297 - removed tests for this
1299 0.13 Sat. Sept. 30, 2006
1301 This version of Moose *must* have Class::MOP 0.35 in order
1302 to work correctly. A number of small internal tweaks have
1303 been made in order to be compatible with that release.
1306 - Removed the use of UNIVERSAL::require to be a better
1307 symbol table citizen and remove a dependency
1308 (thanks Adam Kennedy)
1310 **~~ removed experimental & undocumented feature ~~**
1311 - commented out the 'method' and 'self' keywords, see the
1312 comments for more info.
1315 - added a FAQ and WTF files to document frequently
1316 asked questions and common problems
1318 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1319 - added GlobRef and FileHandle type constraint
1320 - added tests for this
1322 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1323 - if your attribute 'isa' ArrayRef of HashRef, and you have
1324 not explicitly set a default, then make the default DWIM.
1325 This will also work for subtypes of ArrayRef and HashRef
1327 - you can now auto-deref subtypes of ArrayRef or HashRef too.
1328 - new test added for this (thanks to ashley)
1331 - added basic support for runtime role composition
1332 but this is still *highly experimental*, so feedback
1333 is much appreciated :)
1334 - added tests for this
1336 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1337 - the type constraint now handles the coercion process
1338 through delegation, this is to support the coercion
1341 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
1342 - it is now possible for coercions to be performed
1344 - added tests for this (thanks to konobi)
1346 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
1347 - properly capturing error when type constraint
1351 - Scalar::Util 1.18 is bad on Win32, so temporarily
1352 only require version 1.17 for Win32 and cygwin.
1353 (thanks Adam Kennedy)
1355 0.12 Sat. Sept. 1, 2006
1357 - Recipe5 (subtypes & coercion) has been written
1360 - fixed "bad meta" error message to be more descriptive
1361 - fixed &unimport to not remove the &inner and &super
1362 keywords because we need to localize them.
1363 - fixed number of spelling/grammer issues, thanks Theory :)
1365 **~~ experimental & undocumented feature ~~**
1366 - added the method and self keywords, they are basically
1367 just sugar, and they may not stay around.
1370 - added &dump method to easily Data::Dumper
1373 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1374 - added the &is_a_type_of method to check both the current
1375 and the subtype of a method (similar to &isa with classes)
1378 - this is now a subclass of Class::MOP::Module, and no longer
1379 creates the _role_meta ugliness of before.
1380 - fixed tests to reflect this change
1382 0.11 Wed. July 12, 2006
1384 - added an &unimport method to remove all the keywords
1385 that Moose will import, simply add 'no Moose' to the
1386 bottom of your class file.
1389 - fixed some test failures caused by a forgotten test
1392 0.10 Thurs. July 6, 2006
1394 - improved error message when loading modules so
1395 it is less confusing when you load a role.
1396 - added &calculate_all_roles method to
1397 Moose::Meta::Class and Moose::Meta::Role
1400 This module has been tested against Class::MOP 0.30
1401 but it does not yet utilize the optimizations
1402 it makes available. Stay tuned for that ;)
1404 0.09_03 Fri. June 23, 2006
1405 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
1407 - 'use strict' and 'use warnings' are no longer
1408 needed in Moose classes, Moose itself will
1409 turn them on for you.
1410 - added tests for this
1411 - moved code from exported subs to private methods
1412 in Moose::Meta::Class
1415 - as with Moose, strict and warnings are
1416 automatically turned on for you.
1417 - added tests for this
1420 - now handles an edge case for override errors
1421 - added tests for this
1422 - added some more edge case tests

1434 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1435 - cleaned up prototypes for the subs
1438 0.09_01 Fri. May 12, 2006
1439 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
1440 - This release works in combination with
1441 Class::MOP 0.29_01, it is a developer
1442 release because it uses the a new
1443 instance sub-protocol and a fairly
1444 complete Role implementation. It has
1445 not yet been optimized, so it slower
1446 the the previous CPAN version. This
1447 release also lacks good updated docs,
1448 the official release will have updated docs.
1451 - refactored the keyword exports
1452 - 'with' now checks Role validaity and
1453 accepts more than one Role at a time
1454 - 'extends' makes metaclass adjustments as
1455 needed to ensure metaclass compatability
1458 - refactored the keyword exports
1459 - 'with' now checks Role validaity and
1460 accepts more than one Role at a time
1462 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1463 - added the 'enum' keyword for simple
1464 string enumerations which can be used as
1466 - see example of usage in t/202_example.t
1469 - more careful checking of params to new()
1472 - much work done on the role composition
1473 - many new tests for conflict detection
1474 and composition edge cases

1499 - keywords are now exported with Sub::Exporter
1500 thanks to chansen for this commit
