1 Revision history for Perl extension Class-MOP.
5 - added create_anon_class for creating anonymous classes
7 - added get_all_metaclasses, get_all_metaclass_names
8 and get_all_metaclass_instances method to allow
9 access to all the cached metaclass objects.
10 - attribute slot initialization is now the responsibility
11 of the attribute itself, and construct_instance now
12 delegates appropriately
14 * Class::MOP::Attribute
15 - attribute slot initialization is now the responsibility
16 of the attribute itself, so we added a method for it
17 called initialize_instance_slot
19 0.24 Tues. April 11, 2006
21 - cleaned up how the before/after/around method
22 modifiers get named with Sub::Name
24 0.23 Thurs. March 30, 2006
26 - fixed the way attribute defaults are handled
27 during instance construction (bug found by chansen)
29 * Class::MOP::Attribute
30 - read-only accessors ('reader') will now die if
31 passed more than one argument (attempting to write
33 - added tests for this
34 - adjusted all /example files to comply
36 0.22 Mon. March 20, 2006
38 - localized $@ in the *_package_variable functions
39 because otherwise, it does ugly things in Moose.
40 - added test case for this
42 0.21 Wed. March 15, 2006
44 - fixed issue where metaclasses are reaped from
45 our cache in global destruction, and so are not
46 available in DESTORY calls
48 0.20 Thurs. March 2, 2006
49 - removed the dependency for Clone since
50 we no longer to deep-cloning by default.
53 - added &package_name, &name and
54 &fully_qualified_name methods, some of
55 which were formerly private subs in
58 * Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
59 - allows for a method to be wrapped with
60 before, after and around modifiers
61 - added tests and docs for this feature
64 - improved &get_package_variable
65 - &version and &superclasses now use it
66 - methods are now blessed into Class::MOP::Method
68 - added methods to install CLOS-style method modifiers
69 - &add_before_method_modifier
70 - &add_after_method_modifier
71 - &add_around_method_modifier
72 - added tests and docs for these
73 - added &find_next_method_by_name which finds the
74 equivalent of SUPER::method_name
76 0.12 Thurs. Feb 23, 2006
77 - reduced the dependency on B, no need to always
81 - added docs to the C3 method dispatch order test
82 - fixed missing Algorithm::C3 dependency by making
83 the test skip if it is not installed
85 0.11 Mon Feb. 20, 2006
87 - added example of changing method dispatch order to C3
90 - changed how clone_instance behaves, it now only does a
91 shallow clone (see docs for more details)
92 - added docs and tests
94 0.10 Tues Feb. 14, 2006
95 ** This release was mostly about writing more tests and
96 cleaning out old and dusty code, the MOP should now
97 be considered "ready to use".
99 - adding more tests to get coverage up a little higher,
100 mostly testing errors and edge cases.
101 - test coverage is now at 99%
104 - no longer optionally exports to UNIVERSAL::meta or
105 creates a custom metaclass generator, use the
106 metaclass pragma instead.
109 - fixed a number of minor issues which came up in the
110 error/edge-case tests
112 * Class::MOP::Attribute
113 - fixed a number of minor issues which came up in the
114 error/edge-case tests
117 - fixing the AttributesWithHistory example, it was broken.
119 0.06 Thurs Feb. 9, 2006
121 - adding new metaclass pragma to make setting up the
122 metaclass a little more straightforward
125 - clean up bootstrapping to include more complete
126 attribute definitions for Class::MOP::Class and
127 Class::MOP::Attribute (accessors, readers, writers,
128 etc.) ... it is redundant, but is useful meta-info
132 - fixing minor meta-circularity issue with &meta, it
133 is now more useful for subclasses
134 - added &get_attribute_map as an accessor for the
135 hash of attribute meta objects
136 - &compute_all_applicable_attributes now just returns
137 the attribute meta-object, rather than the HASH ref
138 since all the same info can be gotten from the
139 attribute meta-object itself
140 - updated docs & tests to reflect
141 - added &clone_instance method which does a deep clone
142 of the instance structure created by &construct_instance
143 - added docs & tests for this
144 - added Clone as a dependency
145 - added &new_object and &clone_object convience methods to
146 return blessed new or cloned instances
147 - they handle Class::MOP::Class singletons correctly too
148 - added docs & tests for this
149 - cleaned up the &constuct_class_instance so that it behaves
150 more like &construct_instance (and managed the singletons too)
151 - added the &check_metaclass_compatibility method to make sure
152 that metaclasses are upward and downward compatible.
153 - added tests and docs for this
156 - adjusting code to use the &Class::MOP::Class::meta
158 - adjusting code to use the metaclass pragma
160 0.05 Sat Feb. 4, 2006
162 - added the &attribute_metaclass and &method_metaclass
163 attributes which contain a metaclass name to use for
164 attributes/methods respectively
167 - bootstrap additional attributes for Class::MOP::Class
170 - adjusted the example code and tests to use the new
171 &attribute_metaclass feature of Class::MOP::Class
175 0.04 Fri Feb. 3, 2006
177 - some documentation suggestions from #perl6
179 * Class::MOP::Attribute
180 - improved error messages
183 - added new examples:
184 - AttributesWithHistory
185 - ClassEncapsultedAttributes
187 0.03 Fri Feb. 3, 2006
188 - converted to Module::Build instead of EU::MM
190 * Class::MOP::Attribute
191 - refactored method generation code
192 - attributes are now associated with class directly
195 - refactored the InsideOut example to take advantage
196 of the Class::MOP::Attribute refactoring
197 - changed example files to .pod files and hide thier
198 package names from PAUSE (I don't want to own these
199 namespaces really, they are just examples)
201 0.02 Thurs Feb. 2, 2006
202 - moving examples from t/lib/* to examples/*
203 - adding POD documentation to the examples
205 0.01 Thurs Feb. 2, 2006
