1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
4 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
5 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
6 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
7 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
8 as there is no recommended alternative.
10 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
13 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
14 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
15 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
16 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
18 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
19 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
20 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
23 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
24 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
27 Refactoring / cleanups:
28 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
29 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
30 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
31 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
32 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
34 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
37 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
38 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
39 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
40 now loaded at most once + tests.
41 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
42 is returned to 'actions'.
43 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
44 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
46 Refactoring / cleanups:
47 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
48 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
51 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
52 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
53 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
55 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
58 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
59 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
62 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
65 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
66 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
67 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
69 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
72 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
73 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
74 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
76 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
79 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
80 application class immutable without that option.
81 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
82 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
84 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
85 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
86 (hopefully) future versions.
87 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
88 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
90 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
92 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
93 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
94 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
95 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
96 Request-URI of the Request-Line
98 Refactoring / cleanups:
99 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
100 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
101 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
102 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
103 known issues with 5.8.3.
104 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
105 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
108 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
109 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
110 for the controller namespace
111 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
112 expand_component_module (rjbs)
113 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
114 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
115 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
116 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
118 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
119 frontend port (jshirley)
120 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
124 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
125 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
126 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
127 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
130 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
133 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
134 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
135 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
137 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
138 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
139 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
140 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
141 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
142 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
146 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
147 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
148 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
151 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
154 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
155 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
157 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
158 in some environments.
159 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
160 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
161 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
162 except works correctly with closures.
163 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
164 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
165 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
167 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
168 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
169 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
172 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
173 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
174 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
175 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
176 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
177 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
179 Refactoring / cleanups:
180 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
181 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
182 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
183 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
185 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
186 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
187 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
189 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
190 again in Catalyst::Test
192 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
195 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
196 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch

202 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
203 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
204 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
206 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
209 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
210 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
213 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
214 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
218 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
219 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
220 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
221 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
222 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
224 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
225 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
226 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
227 controller naming. (random)

229 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
230 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
231 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
232 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
234 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
236 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
237 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
238 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
240 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
241 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
242 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
243 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
244 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
245 to report 'Unknown Error'
246 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
247 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
248 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
249 parse_on_demand is on

258 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
259 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no

262 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
263 Test::Aggregate is available.
264 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
265 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
266 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
267 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
268 disabling functionality from base controllers.

276 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
277 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
278 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
279 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
280 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
281 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
282 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
284 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
285 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
286 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
287 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
288 configuration in your application.
290 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
291 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
292 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
294 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
295 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class

300 the request parameters with undef + test
301 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
302 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
304 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
306 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying

312 warning on recent Moose versions.
313 - Add delta documentation
314 - Clean up recursion errors
315 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
316 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
318 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
319 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
321 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
322 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
323 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
324 tries to chain to itself
326 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
327 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
328 - Tests for this (radek)
329 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
330 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
331 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
332 - Tests for this (radek)
333 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
334 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
335 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
336 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
338 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
339 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
341 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
343 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
344 in production versions
345 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
346 the correct metaclass
347 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
348 the restarter process
349 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
350 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
352 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
353 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
354 immutable restart correctly.
356 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
357 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
358 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically

370 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
371 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
372 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
373 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
374 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
375 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
376 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
378 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
379 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
380 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
383 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.

417 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
418 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
419 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)

432 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
433 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
434 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
435 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
436 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
438 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
439 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
441 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
442 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later

445 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
446 test sync for engines easier
447 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
448 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
450 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
451 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher

465 - Make log levels additive, and add documentation and tests
466 for the setup_log method, which previously had none.
467 Sewn together by from two patches provided by David E. Wheeler
468 - Switch an around 'new' in Catalyst::Controller to a BUILDARGS
469 method as it's much neater and more obvious what is going on

595 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
596 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
597 method with a regex as the argument
