1 Revision history for Perl extension Moose
4 ~~ more misc. doc fixes ~~
6 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
7 - fixed bug when passing a list of values to
8 an accessor would get (incorrectly) ignored.
9 Thanks to Sartak for finding this ;)
10 - added tests for this (Sartak again)
12 0.33 Fri. Dec. 14, 2007
13 !! Moose now loads 2 x faster !!
14 !! with new Class::MOP 0.49 !!
16 ++ new oose.pm module to make command line
17 Moose-ness easier (see POD docs for more)
21 - several tweaks to take advantage of the
22 new method map caching in Class::MOP
24 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Parameterized
25 - allow subtypes of ArrayRef and HashRef to
26 be used as a container (sartak)
27 - added tests for this
28 - basic support for coercion to ArrayRef and
29 HashRef for containers (sartak)
30 - added tests for this
32 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
33 - coercions will now create subtypes as needed
34 so you can now add coercions to parameterized
35 types without having to explictly define them
36 - added tests for this
38 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
39 - allow subclasses to decide whether we need
40 to copy the value into a new variable (sartak)
42 0.32 Tues. Dec. 4, 2007
43 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
44 - fixing how subtype aliases of unions work
45 they should inherit the parent's coercion
46 - added tests for this
47 - you can now define multiple coercions on
48 a single type at different times instead of
49 having to do it all in one place
50 - added tests for this
52 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
53 - there is now a default constraint of sub { 1 }
54 instead of Moose::Util::TypeConstraints setting
57 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
58 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion::Union
59 - added the &has_coercion_for_type and
60 &add_type_coercions methods to support the
61 new features above (although you cannot add
62 more type coercions for Union types)
64 0.31 Mon. Nov. 26, 2007
65 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
66 - made the +attr syntax handle extending types with
67 parameters. So "has '+foo' => (isa => 'ArrayRef[Int]')"
68 now works if the original foo is an ArrayRef.
69 - added tests for this.
70 - delegation now works even if the attribute does not
71 have a reader method using the get_read_method_ref
72 method from Class::MOP::Attribute.
73 - added tests for this
76 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
77 - passing no "additional attribute info" to
78 &find_or_create_type_constraint will no longer
79 attempt to create an __ANON__ type for you,
80 instead it will just return undef.
83 0.30 Fri. Nov. 23, 2007
84 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
85 -builder related bug in inlined constructor. (groditi)
87 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor

89 code generation for runtime speed (groditi)
91 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
92 - fix ClassName constraint to introspect symbol table (mst)
93 - added more tests for this (mst)
94 - fixed it so that subtype 'Foo' => as 'HashRef[Int]' ...
96 - added tests for this
99 - adding the link to Recipie 11 (written by Sartak)
100 - adding test for SYNOPSIS code
103 - New tests for builder bug. Upon instantiation, if an
104 attribute had a builder, no value and was not lazy the
105 builder default was not getting run, oops. (groditi)
107 0.29 Tues. Nov. 13, 2007

139 got mentioned on CPAN Forum & perlmonks
142 - fixed how required methods are handled
143 when they encounter overriden or modified
144 methods from a class (thanks to confound).
145 - added tests for this
147 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraint
148 - fixed the type notation parser so that
149 the | always creates a union and so is
150 no longer a valid type char (thanks to
151 konobi, mugwump and #moose for working
153 - added more tests for this
155 0.26 Thurs. Sept. 27, 2007
158 * Parameterized Types
159 We now support parameterized collection types, such as:
160 ArrayRef[Int] # array or integers
161 HashRef[Object] # a hash with object values
162 They can also be nested:
163 ArrayRef[HashRef[RegExpr]] # an array of hashes with regexpr values
164 And work with the type unions as well:
165 ArrayRef[Int | Str] # array of integers of strings
167 * Better Framework Extendability
168 Moose.pm is now "extendable" such that it is now much
169 easier to extend the framework and add your own keywords
170 and customizations. See the "EXTENDING AND EMBEDDING MOOSE"
171 section of the Moose.pm docs.
174 In an effort to begin documenting some of the various
175 details of Moose as well as some common idioms, we have
176 created Moose::Cookbook::Snacks as a place to find
177 small (easily digestable) nuggets of Moose code.
180 ~ Several doc updates/cleanup thanks to castaway ~
182 - converted build system to use Module::Install instead of
183 Module::Build (thanks to jrockway)
186 - added all the meta classes to the immutable list and
187 set it to inline the accessors

213 - fixed issue with generated accessor code making
214 assumptions about hash based classes (thanks to dexter)
216 * Moose::Coookbook::Snacks
217 - these are bits of documentation, not quite as big as
218 Recipes but which have no clear place in the module docs.
219 So they are Snacks! (horray for castaway++)
221 * Moose::Cookbook::Recipe4
222 - updated it to use the new ArrayRef[MyType] construct
223 - updated the accompanying test as well

236 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
237 - some minor adjustments to make subclassing easier
238 - added the package_defined_in attribute so that we
239 can track where the type constraints are created
241 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
242 - this is now been refactored to be a subclass of
243 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
245 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion::Union
246 - this has been added to service the newly refactored
247 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union and is itself
248 a subclass of Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion

264 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
265 - required attributes now will no longer accept undef
266 from the constructor, even if there is a default and lazy
267 - added tests for this
268 - default subroutines must return a value which passes the
270 - added tests for this
272 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
273 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
274 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor

309 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
310 - added support for roles to be given as parameters
311 to the 'handles' option.

331 the other side (perigrin)
333 0.22 Thurs. May 31, 2007
334 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
335 - fix for prototype undeclared issue when Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
336 loaded before consumers (e.g. Moose::Meta::Attribute) by predeclaring
337 prototypes for functions
338 - added the ClassName type constraint, this checks for strings
339 which will respond true to ->isa(UNIVERSAL).
340 - added tests and docs for this
341 - subtyping just in name now works correctly by making the
342 default for where be { 1 }
343 - added test for this

346 - coerce and lazy now work together correctly, thanks to
347 merlyn for finding this bug
348 - tests added for this
349 - fix reader presedence bug in Moose::Meta::Attribute + tests
352 - Foo->new(undef) now gets ignored, it is assumed you meant to pass
353 a HASH-ref and missed. This produces better error messages then
354 having it die cause undef is not a HASH.
355 - added tests for this
357 0.21 Thursday, May 2nd, 2007
359 - added SUPER_SLOT and INNER_SLOT class hashes to support unimport
360 - modified unimport to remove super and inner along with the rest

372 where not handled correctly in roles
373 - added tests for this
376 - fixed issue where extending metaclasses with
377 roles would blow up. Thanks to Aankhen`` for
378 finding this insidious error, and it's solution.
380 ~~ lots of spelling and grammer fixes in the docs,
381 many many thanks to rlb3 and Aankhen for these :)
383 0.20 Friday, April 6th, 2007
384 >> I messed up the SKIP logic in one test
385 so this release is just to fix that.
388 - 'has' now also accepts an ARRAY ref
389 to create multiple attrs (see docs)
390 (thanks to konobi for this)
391 - added tests and docs
393 0.19 Thurs. April 5th, 2007
394 ~~ More documentation updates ~~
396 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
397 - 'type' now supports messages as well
398 thanks to phaylon for finding this
399 - added tests for this
400 - added &list_all_type_constraints and
401 &list_all_builtin_type_constraints
402 functions to facilitate introspection.
404 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
405 - fixed regexp 'handles' declarations
406 to build the list of delegated methods
407 correctly (and not override important
408 things like &new) thanks to ashleyb
410 - added tests and docs for this
411 - added the 'documentation' attributes
412 so that you can actually document your
413 attributes and inspect them through the
415 - added tests and docs for this
418 - when loading custom attribute metaclasses
419 it will first look in for the class in the
420 Moose::Meta::Attribute::Custom::$name, and
421 then default to just loading $name.
422 - added tests and docs for this
424 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
425 - type constraints now stringify to their names.
426 - added test for this
429 - added tests to assure we work with Module::Refresh
430 - added stricter test skip logic in the Moose POOP
431 test, ask Rob Kinyon why.
432 - *cough* DBM::Deep 1.0 backwards compatability sucks *cough* ;)
434 0.18 Sat. March 10, 2007
435 ~~ Many, many documentation updates ~~
438 - We now use Class::MOP::load_class to
440 - added tests to show types and subtypes
441 working with Declare::Constraints::Simple
442 and Test::Deep as constraint engines.
445 !! You must have Class::MOP 0.37_001 !!
446 !! for this developer release to work !!
448 This release was primarily adding the immutable
449 feature to Moose. An immutable class is one which
450 you promise not to alter. When you set the class
451 as immutable it will perform various bits of
452 memoization and inline certain part of the code
453 (constructors, destructors and accessors). This
454 minimizes (and in some cases totally eliminates)
455 one of Moose's biggest performance hits. This
456 feature is not on by default, and is 100% optional.
457 It has several configurable bits as well, so you
458 can pick and choose to your specific needs.
460 The changes involved in this were fairly wide and
461 highly specific, but 100% backwards compatible, so
462 I am not going to enumerate them here. If you are
463 truely interested in what was changed, please do
466 0.17 Tues. Nov. 14, 2006
467 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
468 - bugfix for read-only accessors which
469 are have a type constraint and lazy.
470 Thanks to chansen for finding it.
472 0.16 Tues. Nov. 14, 2006
474 There are some speed improvements in this release,
475 but they are only the begining, so stay tuned.
478 - BUILDALL and DEMOLISHALL no longer get
479 called unless they actually need to be.
480 This gave us a signifigant speed boost
481 for the cases when there is no BUILD or
482 DEMOLISH method present.
484 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
485 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
486 - added an 'optimize_as' option to the
487 type constraint, which allows for a
488 hand optimized version of the type
489 constraint to be used when possible.
490 - Any internally created type constraints
491 now provide an optimized version as well.
493 0.15 Sun. Nov. 5, 2006
495 This version of Moose *must* have Class::MOP 0.36 in order
496 to work correctly. A number of small internal tweaks have
497 been made in order to be compatible with that release.
499 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
500 - added &unimport so that you can clean out
501 your class namespace of these exported
505 - fixed minor issue which occasionally
506 comes up during global destruction
508 - moved Moose::Meta::Method::Overriden into
512 - moved Moose::Meta::Role::Method into
515 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
516 - changed how we do type checks so that
517 we reduce the overall cost, but still
520 - moved accessor generation methods to
521 Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor to
522 conform to the API changes from
525 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
526 - changed how constraints are compiled
527 so that we do less recursion and more
528 iteration. This makes the type check
530 - moved Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
533 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
534 - created this from methods formerly found in
535 Moose::Meta::Attribute
537 * Moose::Meta::Role::Method
538 - moved this from Moose::Meta::Role
540 * Moose::Meta::Method::Overriden
541 - moved this from Moose::Meta::Class
543 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
544 - moved this from Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
546 0.14 Mon. Oct. 9, 2006
548 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
549 - fixed lazy attributes which were not getting
550 checked with the type constraint (thanks ashley)
551 - added tests for this
552 - removed the over-enthusiastic DWIMery of the
553 automatic ArrayRef and HashRef defaults, it
554 broke predicates in an ugly way.
555 - removed tests for this
557 0.13 Sat. Sept. 30, 2006
559 This version of Moose *must* have Class::MOP 0.35 in order
560 to work correctly. A number of small internal tweaks have
561 been made in order to be compatible with that release.
564 - Removed the use of UNIVERSAL::require to be a better
565 symbol table citizen and remove a dependency
566 (thanks Adam Kennedy)
568 **~~ removed experimental & undocumented feature ~~**
569 - commented out the 'method' and 'self' keywords, see the
570 comments for more info.
573 - added a FAQ and WTF files to document frequently
574 asked questions and common problems
576 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
577 - added GlobRef and FileHandle type constraint
578 - added tests for this
580 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
581 - if your attribute 'isa' ArrayRef of HashRef, and you have
582 not explicitly set a default, then make the default DWIM.
583 This will also work for subtypes of ArrayRef and HashRef
585 - you can now auto-deref subtypes of ArrayRef or HashRef too.
586 - new test added for this (thanks to ashley)
589 - added basic support for runtime role composition
590 but this is still *highly experimental*, so feedback
591 is much appreciated :)
592 - added tests for this
594 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
595 - the type constraint now handles the coercion process
596 through delegation, this is to support the coercion
599 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
600 - it is now possible for coercions to be performed
602 - added tests for this (thanks to konobi)
604 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
605 - properly capturing error when type constraint
609 - Scalar::Util 1.18 is bad on Win32, so temporarily
610 only require version 1.17 for Win32 and cygwin.
611 (thanks Adam Kennedy)
613 0.12 Sat. Sept. 1, 2006
615 - Recipe5 (subtypes & coercion) has been written
618 - fixed "bad meta" error message to be more descriptive
619 - fixed &unimport to not remove the &inner and &super
620 keywords because we need to localize them.
621 - fixed number of spelling/grammer issues, thanks Theory :)
623 **~~ experimental & undocumented feature ~~**
624 - added the method and self keywords, they are basically
625 just sugar, and they may not stay around.
628 - added &dump method to easily Data::Dumper
631 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
632 - added the &is_a_type_of method to check both the current
633 and the subtype of a method (similar to &isa with classes)
636 - this is now a subclass of Class::MOP::Module, and no longer
637 creates the _role_meta ugliness of before.
638 - fixed tests to reflect this change
640 0.11 Wed. July 12, 2006
642 - added an &unimport method to remove all the keywords
643 that Moose will import, simply add 'no Moose' to the
644 bottom of your class file.
647 - fixed some test failures caused by a forgotten test
650 0.10 Thurs. July 6, 2006
652 - improved error message when loading modules so
653 it is less confusing when you load a role.
654 - added &calculate_all_roles method to
655 Moose::Meta::Class and Moose::Meta::Role
658 This module has been tested against Class::MOP 0.30
659 but it does not yet utilize the optimizations
660 it makes available. Stay tuned for that ;)
662 0.09_03 Fri. June 23, 2006
663 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
665 - 'use strict' and 'use warnings' are no longer
666 needed in Moose classes, Moose itself will
667 turn them on for you.
668 - added tests for this
669 - moved code from exported subs to private methods
670 in Moose::Meta::Class
673 - as with Moose, strict and warnings are
674 automatically turned on for you.
675 - added tests for this
678 - now handles an edge case for override errors
679 - added tests for this
680 - added some more edge case tests
682 0.09_02 Tues. May 16, 2006
683 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
685 - added prototypes to the exported subs
689 - added prototypes to the exported subs
692 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
693 - cleaned up prototypes for the subs
696 0.09_01 Fri. May 12, 2006
697 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
698 - This release works in combination with
699 Class::MOP 0.29_01, it is a developer
700 release because it uses the a new
701 instance sub-protocol and a fairly
702 complete Role implementation. It has
703 not yet been optimized, so it slower
704 the the previous CPAN version. This
705 release also lacks good updated docs,
706 the official release will have updated docs.
709 - refactored the keyword exports
710 - 'with' now checks Role validaity and
711 accepts more than one Role at a time
712 - 'extends' makes metaclass adjustments as
713 needed to ensure metaclass compatability
716 - refactored the keyword exports
717 - 'with' now checks Role validaity and
718 accepts more than one Role at a time
720 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
721 - added the 'enum' keyword for simple
722 string enumerations which can be used as
724 - see example of usage in t/202_example.t
727 - more careful checking of params to new()
730 - much work done on the role composition
731 - many new tests for conflict detection
732 and composition edge cases
733 - not enough documentation, I suggest
736 * Moose::Meta::Instance
737 - added new Instance metaclass to support
738 the new Class::MOP instance protocol
741 - some small changes to support the new
743 - some small additions to support Roles
745 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
746 - some improvements to the accessor generation code
748 - some small changes to support the new
750 - (still somewhat) experimental delegation support
751 with the 'handles' option
752 - added several tests for this
753 - no docs for this yet
755 0.05 Thurs. April 27, 2006
757 - keywords are now exported with Sub::Exporter
758 thanks to chansen for this commit
759 - has keyword now takes a 'metaclass' option
760 to support custom attribute meta-classes
761 on a per-attribute basis
762 - added tests for this
763 - the 'has' keyword not accepts inherited slot
764 specifications (has '+foo'). This is still an
765 experimental feature and probably not finished
766 see t/038_attribute_inherited_slot_specs.t for
767 more details, or ask about it on #moose
768 - added tests for this

936 and register a subtype of Object which
937 correspond to the new Moose class.
938 - the 'isa' option in &has now only
939 accepts strings, and will DWIM in
942 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
943 - added type coercion features
944 - added tests for this
945 - added support for this in attributes
946 and instance construction
948 - type construction no longer creates a
949 function, it registers the type instead.
950 - added several functions to get the
