8 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
9 warning on recent Moose versions.
10 - Add delta documentation
11 - Clean up recursion errors
12 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
13 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
15 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
16 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended (t0m)
18 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
19 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
20 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
21 tries to chain to itself (t0m)
23 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
24 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with (t0m)
25 - Tests for this (radek)
26 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
27 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
28 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly (t0m)
29 - Tests for this (radek)
30 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
31 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
32 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
33 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
35 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
36 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
37 spurious warnings (t0m)
38 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme (t0m)
40 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
41 in production versions (t0m)

43 the correct metaclass (t0m)
44 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
45 the restarter process (t0m)
46 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
47 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed (t0m)
48 - Tests for this (t0m)
49 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
50 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
51 immutable restart correctly. (t0m)
52 - Tests for this (t0m)
53 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
54 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm (t0m)

56 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
57 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test (rafl)

70 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected. (rafl)

72 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
73 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
75 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
76 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.

114 it isn't a hashref (t0m)
115 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
116 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
117 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL) (t0m)

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

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

151 rather than the stringified ref. (t0m)

290 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
291 throw warnings for two reasons:
292 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
293 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance

296 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
297 method with a regex as the argument

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