1 Also see Moose::Manual::Delta for more details of, and workarounds
2 for, noteworthy changes.
8 * The 'accessor' native delegation for hashrefs now allows setting the value
9 to undef. (sugoik, doy)
13 * Various generated methods have more useful context information. (doy)
15 2.0007 Sun, May 15, 2011
19 * Make sure weak attributes remain weak when cloning. (doy, rafl)
21 2.0006 Mon, May 09, 2011
25 * Revert the List::MoreUtils version bump, as it breaks backwards
26 compatibility. The dependency will be bumped with Moose 2.0200.
28 2.0005 Mon, May 09, 2011
32 * Only sort the alias keys when determining caching.
34 2.0004 Mon, May 09, 2011
38 * Bump the List::MoreUtils dep to avoid buggy behavior in old versions.
40 * Sort the list of roles and the alias and excludes parameters when
41 determining caching, since their order doesn't matter.
43 2.0003 Mon, May 09, 2011
47 * Applying multiple role objects (rather than role names) at once no longer
48 skips every other role. (rjbs)
50 * Caching of anon classes now works more sanely in the presence of role
51 application parameters - alias and excludes options are taken into account,
52 and caching is disabled entirely if other parameters exist. Asking for
53 caching (instead of just not weakening) when parameters are given will
54 begin warning in Moose 2.0200. (doy, autarch)
56 2.0002 Thu, Apr 28, 2011
60 * Provide definition context information for constructors and destructors, so
61 that they will show up as something other than "generated method (unknown
62 origin)". Also, add the package that accessors are defined in to their
65 * Use Devel::PartialDump in type constraint error messages, if it is
70 * Stop hiding warnings produced by throwing errors in DEMOLISH methods.
72 * The 'reset' native delegation for Counter attributes will now also respect
73 builders (previously, it only respected defaults).
75 2.0001 Fri, Apr 22, 2011
79 * Anonymous classes and roles now have a unified implementation in
80 Class::MOP::Package. This means that anonymous packages are now also
81 possible. (Shawn M Moore, doy)
85 * No longer call XSLoader from multiple places, as this causes issues on
86 older perls. (doy, ribasushi)
88 * Moose::Meta::Role->create now accepts the 'roles' parameter, as it was
89 documented to. (Chris Weyl)
91 * Depend on Eval::Closure 0.04, which fixes some issues in mod_perl
92 environments. (doy, mateu)
94 2.0000 Mon, Apr 11, 2011
98 * The RegexpRef type constraint now accepts regular expressions blessed into
99 other classes, such as those found in pluggable regexp engines.
100 Additionally the 'Object' constraint no longer rejects objects implemented
101 as a blessed regular expression. (David Leadbeater)
105 * Moose::Manual::Support now explicitly states when major releases are
106 allowed to happen (January, April, July, or October).
108 1.9906-TRIAL Mon, Apr 04, 2011
112 * Update conflicts list.
115 1.9905-TRIAL Mon, Mar 28, 2011
119 * The Moose::Meta::Role::Attribute class now has an original_role method
120 which returns the role which first defined an attribute. See the docs for
121 details. (Dave Rolsky)
123 * Moose::Util::MetaRole will make sure that the class to which you're
124 applying metaroles or base class roles can actually have them applied. If
125 not (it's not a Moose class, it has a non-Moose metaclass, etc.), then it
126 gives a useful error message. Previously, this would just end up dying in
127 the MetaRole code without a useful message. (Dave Rolsky)
131 * When a role had its own applied_attribute metaclass (usually from MetaRole
132 application), that metaclass would get lost when that role participated in
133 role composition. It was also lost if that role was consumed by some other
134 role. Both of these cases have been fixed. Attributes are always applied
135 with the applied_attribute metaclass of the role which originally defined
138 1.9904-TRIAL Fri, Mar 04, 2011
142 * Reinitializing anonymous roles used to accidentally clear out the role's
143 stash in some circumstances. This is now fixed. (doy)
145 * The Int type constraint now rejects integers with trailing newlines.
148 1.9903-TRIAL Mon, Feb 28, 2011
152 * Reverse the order that Moose::Exporter 'also' exports are dispatched. When
153 trying to re-export from a package that itself exported a modified set of
154 Moose sugar, you'd get the original Moose sugar instead of the overrides.
155 There are also now tests for this. (perigrin)
157 * Don't initialize lazy attributes with defaults in the constructor (for
158 immutable classes). (mo)
160 * When reinitializing meta objects for classes and roles, we failed to
161 preserve roles and role applications. This led to weird bugs. Many MooseX
162 modules end up reinitializing your class or role. (Dave Rolsky)
164 1.9902-TRIAL Mon, Jan 03, 2011
168 * Fix generation of CCFLAGS.
170 * Add a bit more Dist::Zilla functionality.
172 1.9901-TRIAL Mon, Jan 03, 2011
176 * Fix some indexing issues.
178 * Fix a few issues with the conflict checking stuff.
180 1.9900-TRIAL Sat, Jan 01, 2011
184 * The entire Class::MOP distribution has been merged with Moose. In the
185 future, the Class::MOP code itself will be merged into Moose, and
186 eventually the Class::MOP namespace will disappear entirely. For the
187 current release, we have simply changed how Class::MOP is
188 distributed. (Dave Rolsky).
190 * Switched to Dist::Zilla for development. However, we still have a minimal
191 Makefile.PL in the repository that can be used for development. (Dave
196 * Roles now have their own default attribute metaclass to use during
197 application to a class, rather than just using the class's
198 attribute_metaclass. This is also overridable via ::MetaRole, with the
199 applied_attribute key in the role_metaroles hashref (doy).
201 * The internal code used to generate inlined methods (accessor, constructor,
202 etc.) has been massively rewritten. MooseX modules that do inlining will
203 almost certainly need to be updated as well.
207 * We now load the roles needed for native delegations only as needed. This
208 speeds up the compilation time for Moose itself. (doy)
211 1.25 Fri, Apr 1, 2011
215 * Reinitializing anonymous roles used to accidentally clear out the role's
216 stash in some circumstances. This is now fixed. (doy) (backported from
220 1.24 Tue, Feb 24, 2011
224 * Reverse the order that Moose::Exporter 'also' exports are dispatched. When
225 trying to re-export from a package that itself exported a modified set of
226 Moose sugar, you'd get the original Moose sugar instead of the overrides.
227 There are also now tests for this. (perigrin) (backported from 1.9903)
230 1.23 Sun, Feb 13, 2011
234 * The 1.22 release had a bad MANIFEST. This has been fixed.
237 1.22 Sun, Feb 13, 2011
241 * When reinitializing meta objects for classes and roles, we failed to
242 preserve roles and role applications. This led to weird bugs. Many MooseX
243 modules end up reinitializing your class or role. (Dave Rolsky) (backported
246 1.21 Wed, Nov 24, 2010
250 * The Support manual has been updated to reflect our new major/minor version
251 policy. (Chris Prather)
253 * The Contributing manual has been updated to reflect workflow changes based
254 on this new support policy. (doy)
258 * The role attribute metaclass did not inherit from Class::MOP::Object,
259 which could cause errors when trying to resolve metaclass compatibility
260 issues. Reported by Daniel Ruoso. (doy)
262 * The lazy_build feature was accidentally removed from all the docs. Now
263 it's listed in Moose.pm again. (Chris Prather)
265 1.20 Fri, Nov 19, 2010
269 * When using native delegations, if an array or hash ref member failed a
270 type constraint check, Moose ended up erroring out with "Can't call method
271 "get_message" on unblessed reference" instead of generating a useful error
272 based on the failed type constraint. Reported by t0m. RT #63113. (Dave
275 1.19 Tue, Nov 2, 2010
279 * There was still one place in the code trying to load Test::Exception
280 instead of Test::Fatal. (Karen Etheridge)
283 1.18 Sun, Oct 31, 2010
287 * Type constraint objects now have an assert_coerce method which will either
288 return a valid value or throw an error. (rjbs)
290 * We now warn when an accessor for one attribute overwrites an accessor for
291 another attribute. RT #57510. (Dave Rolsky)
295 * The native Array and Hash delegation methods now coerce individual new
296 members if the _member type_ has a coercion. In other words, if the array
297 reference is defined as an ArrayRef[DateTime], and you've defined a
298 coercion from Int to DateTime, then pushing an integer via a delegation
299 method will coerce the integer to a DateTime object. Reported by Karen
300 Etheridge. RT #62351. (Dave Rolsky)
302 * An attribute using native delegations did not always properly coerce and
303 type check a lazily set default value. (doy and Dave Rolsky)
305 * Using a regexp to define delegations for a class which was not yet loaded
306 did not actually work, but did not explicitly fail. However, it caused an
307 error when the class was loaded later. Reported by Max Kanat-Alexander. RT
308 #60596. (Dave Rolsky)
310 * Attempting to delegate to a class or role which is not yet loaded will now
311 throw an explicit error. (Dave Rolsky)
313 * Attempting to set lazy_build in an inherited attribute was ignored. RT
318 * The Moose test suite now uses Test::Fatal instead of
319 Test::Exception. (rjbs)
321 1.17 Tue, Oct 19, 2010
325 * Make native delegation inlining work with instance metaclasses where slot
326 access is an do {} block, like Kioku. This fixes the use of native
327 delegations together with Kioku. (Scott, doy)
329 1.16 Mon, Oct 18, 2010
333 * Almost every native delegation method which changes the attribute value
334 now has an explicitly documented return value. In general, this return
335 value matches what Perl would return for the same operation. (Dave Rolsky)
337 * Lots of work on native delegation documentation, including documenting
338 what arguments each native delegation method allows or requires. (Dave
341 * Passing an odd number of args to ->new() now gives a more useful warning
342 than Perl's builtin warning. Suggested by Sir Robert Burbridge. (Dave
345 * Allow disabling stack traces by setting an environment variable. See
346 Moose::Error::Default for details. This feature is considered
347 experimental, and may change in a future release. (Marcus Ramberg)
349 * The deprecation warning for using alias and excludes without a leading
350 dash now tells you the role being applied and what it was being applied
355 * A number of native trait methods which expected strings as arguments did
356 not allow the empty string. This included Array->join, String->match,
357 String->replace, and String->substr. Reported by Whitney Jackson. RT
358 #61962. (Dave Rolsky)
360 * 'no Moose' no longer inadvertently removes imports it didn't create
361 itself. RT #60013. (Florian Ragwitz, doy)
363 * Roles now support passing an array reference of method names to method
364 modifier sugar functions. (doy)
366 * Native traits no longer use optimized inlining routines if the instance
367 requests it (in particular, if inline_get_slot_value doesn't return
368 something that can be assigned to). This should fix issues with
369 KiokuDB::Class. (doy)
371 * We now ignore all Class::MOP and Moose classes when determining what
372 package called a deprecated feature. This should make the deprecation
373 warnings saner, and make it possible to turn them off more easily. (Dave
376 * The deprecated "default is" warning no longer happens if the attribute has
377 any accessor method defined (accessor, reader, writer). Also, this warning
378 only happens when a method that was generated because of the "default is"
379 gets called, rather than when the attribute is defined. (Dave Rolsky)
381 * The "default default" code for some native delegations no longer issues a
382 deprecation warning when the attribute is required or has a builder. (Dave
385 * Setting a "default default" caused a fatal error if you used the builder
386 or lazy_build options for the attribute. Reported by Kent Fredric. RT
387 #59613. (Dave Rolsky)
389 1.15 Tue, Oct 5, 2010
393 * Major changes to Native Traits, most of which make them act more like
394 "normal" attributes. This should be mostly compatible with existing code,
395 but see Moose::Manual::Delta for details.
397 * A few native traits (String, Counter, Bool) provide default values of "is"
398 and "default" when you created an attribute. Allowing them to provide
399 these values is now deprecated. Supply the value yourself when creating
402 * New option 'trait_aliases' for Moose::Exporter, which will allow you to
403 generate non-global aliases for your traits (and allow your users to
404 rename the aliases, etc). (doy)
406 * 'use Moose' and 'use Moose::Role' now accept a '-meta_name' option, to
407 determine which name to install the 'meta' name under. Passing 'undef'
408 to this option will suppress generation of the meta method entirely. (doy)
410 * Moose now warns if it overwrites an existing method named "meta" in your
411 class when you "use Moose". (doy)
415 * Native Trait delegations are now all generated as inline code. This should
416 be much faster than the previous method of delegation. In the best case,
417 native trait methods will be very highly optimized.
419 * Reinitializing a metaclass no longer removes the existing method and
420 attribute objects (it instead fixes them so they are correct for the
421 reinitialized metaclass). This should make the order of loading many
422 MooseX modules less of an issue. (doy)
424 * The Moose::Manual docs have been revised and updated. (Dave Rolsky)
428 * If an attribute was weak, setting it to a non-ref value after the object
429 was constructed caused an error. Now we only call weaken when the new
430 value is a reference.
432 * t/040_type_constraints/036_match_type_operator.t failed on 5.13.5+. Fixed
433 based on a patch from Andreas Koenig.
435 1.14 Tue, Sep 21, 2010
439 * Work around what looks like a bug in List::MoreUtils::any. This bug caused
440 a weird error when defining the same union type twice, but only when using
441 MooseX::Types. Reported by Curtis Jewell. RT #61001. (Dave Rolsky)
443 1.13 Mon, Sep 13, 2010
447 * The deprecation warnings for alias and excludes are back, use -alias and
448 -excludes instead. (Dave Rolsky)
452 * When composing one role into another and there is an attribute conflict,
453 the error message now includes the attribute name. Reported by Sam
454 Graham. RT #59985. (Dave Rolsky)
456 * When a class is made immutable, the does_role method is overridden with a
457 much faster version that simply looks role names up in a hash. Code which
458 uses lots of role-based type constraints should be faster. (Dave Rolsky)
460 1.12 Sat, Aug 28, 2010
464 * Fix the MANIFEST. Fixes RT #60831, reported by Alberto Simões.
466 1.11 Fri, Aug 27, 2010
470 * An attribute in a subclass can now override the value of "is". (doy)
472 * The deprecation warnings for alias and excludes have been turned back off
473 for this release, to give other module authors a chance to tweak their
478 * mro::get_linear_isa was being called as a function rather than a method,
479 which caused problems with Perl 5.8.x. (t0m)
481 * Union types always created a type constraint, even if their constituent
482 constraints did not have any coercions. This bogus coercion always
483 returned undef, which meant that a union which included Undef as a member
484 always coerced bad values to undef. Reported by Eric Brine. RT
485 #58411. (Dave Rolsky)
487 * Union types with coercions would always fall back to coercing the value to
488 undef (unintentionally). Now if all the coercions for a union type fail,
489 the value returned by the coercion is the original value that we attempted
490 to coerce. (Dave Rolsky).
492 1.10 Sun, Aug 22, 2010
496 * The long-deprecated alias and excludes options for role applications now
497 issue a deprecation warning. Use -alias and -excludes instead. (Dave
502 * Inlined code no longer stringifies numeric attribute defaults. (vg, doy)
504 * default => undef now works properly. (doy)
506 * Enum type constraints now throw errors if their values are nonsensical.
511 * Optimizations that should help speed up compilation time (Dave Rolsky).
513 1.09 Tue, Jul 25, 2010
517 * You can no longer pass "coerce => 1" for an attribute unless its type
518 constraint has a coercion defined. Doing so will issue a deprecation
519 warning. (Dave Rolsky)
521 * Previously, '+foo' only allowed a specific set of options to be
522 overridden, which made it impossible to change attribute options related
523 to extensions. Now we blacklist some options, and anything else is
524 allowed. (doy, Tuomas Jormola)
526 * Most features which have been declared deprecated now issue a warning using
527 Moose::Deprecated. Warnings are issued once per calling package, not
528 repeatedly. See Moose::Deprecated for information on how you can shut
529 these warnings up entirely. Note that deprecated features will eventually
530 be removed, so shutting up the warnings may not be the best idea. (Dave
533 * Removed the long-deprecated Moose::Meta::Role->alias_method method. (Dave
538 * We no longer unimport strict and warnings when Moose, Moose::Role, or
539 Moose::Exporter are unimported. Doing this was broken if the user
540 explicitly loaded strict and warnings themself, and the results could be
541 generally surprising. We decided that it was best to err on the side of
542 safety and leave these on. Reported by David Wheeler. RT #58310. (Dave
545 * New with_traits helper function in Moose::Util. (doy)
549 * Accessors will no longer be inlined if the instance metaclass isn't
552 * Use Perl 5.10's new recursive regex features, if possible, for the type
553 constraint parser. (doy, nothingmuch)
557 * Attributes now warn if their accessors overwrite a locally defined
558 function (not just method). (doy)
562 * Bump our required perl version to 5.8.3, since earlier versions fail tests
563 and aren't easily installable/testable.
565 1.08 Tue, Jun 15, 2010
569 * Refactored a small amount of Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor to allow it
570 to be overridden more easily (doy).
572 1.07 Sat, Jun 05, 2010
576 * Fixed a minor metaclass compatibility fixing bug dealing with immutable
577 classes and non-class metaclass traits (doy, dougdude).
579 1.06 Tue, Jun 01, 2010
583 * Added '0+' overloading in Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint so that we can
584 more uniformly compare type constraints between 'classic' Moose type
585 constraints and MooseX::Types based type constraints.
587 1.05 Thu, May 20, 2010
591 * Packages and modules no longer have methods - this functionality was
592 moved back up into Moose::Meta::Class and Moose::Meta::Role individually
593 (through the Class::MOP::Mixin::HasMethods mixin) (doy).
595 * BUILDALL is now called by Moose::Meta::Class::new_object, rather than by
596 Moose::Object::new. (doy)
600 * strict and warnings are now unimported when Moose, Moose::Role, or
601 Moose::Exporter are unimported. (doy, Adam Kennedy)
603 * Added a 'consumers' method to Moose::Meta::Role for finding all
604 classes/roles which consume the given role. (doy)
608 * Fix has '+attr' in Roles to explode immediately, rather than when the role
609 is applied to a class (t0m).
611 * Fix type constraint validation messages to not include the string 'failed'
612 twice in the same sentence (Florian Ragwitz).
614 * New type constraints will default to being unequal, rather than equal
617 * The tests no longer check for perl's behavior of clobbering $@, which has
618 been fixed in perl-5.13.1 (Florian Ragwitz).
620 * Metaclass compatibility fixing has been completely rewritten, and should
621 be much more robust. (doy)
623 1.04 Thu, May 20, 2010
625 * This release was broken and has been deleted from CPAN shortly after its
628 1.03 Thu, May 06, 2010
632 * Allow specifying required versions when setting superclasses or applying
633 roles (Florian Ragwitz).
635 1.02 Sat, May 01, 2010
639 * Stop the natatime method provided by the native Array trait from returning
640 an exhausted iterator when being called with a callback. (Florian Ragwitz)
642 * Make Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class correctly reject RegexpRefs.
645 * Calling is_subtype_of on a Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class with itself or
646 the class the TC represents as an argument incorrectly returned true. This
647 behavior is correct for is_type_of, not is_subtype_of. (Guillermo Roditi)
649 * Use File::Temp for temp files created during tests. Previously, files were
650 written to the t/ dir, which could cause problems of the user running the
651 tests did not have write access to that directory.. (Chris Weyl, Ævar
654 * Pass role arguments along when applying roles to instances. (doy, lsm)
656 1.01 Fri, Mar 26, 2010
660 * The handles option now also accepts a role type constraint in addition to a
661 plain role name. (Florian Ragwitz)
665 * Record the Sartak/doy debt properly in Changes (perigrin)
667 1.00 Tue, Mar 25, 2010
671 * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Code no longer creates reader
672 methods by default. (Florian Ragwitz)
676 * Improve various parts of the documentation and fix many typos.
677 (Dave Rolsky, Mateu Hunter, Graham Knop, Robin V, Jay Hannah, Jesse Luehrs)
681 * Paid the $10 debt to doy from 0.80 Sat, Jun 6, 2009 (Sartak)
683 0.99 Mon, Mar 8, 2010
687 * New method find_type_for in Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union, for finding
688 which member of the union a given value validates for. (Cory Watson)
692 * DEMOLISH methods in mutable subclasses of immutable classes are now called
693 properly (Chia-liang Kao, Jesse Luehrs)
697 * Added Moose::Manual::Support that defines the support, compatiblity, and
698 release policies for Moose. (Chris Prather)
700 0.98 Wed, Feb 10, 2010
704 * An internals change in 0.97 broke role application to an instance in some
705 cases. The bug occurred when two different roles were applied to different
706 instances of the same class. (Rafael Kitover)
709 0.97 Tue, Feb 9, 2010
713 * Calling ->reinitialize on a cached anonymous class effectively uncached
714 the metaclass object, causing the metaclass to go out of scope
715 unexpectedly. This could easily happen at a distance by applying a
716 metarole to an anonymous class. (Dave Rolsky).
718 0.96 Sat, Feb 6, 2010
722 * ScalarRef is now a parameterized type. You can now specify a type
723 constraint for whatever the reference points to. (Closes RT#50857)
724 (Michael G. Schwern, Florian Ragwitz)
728 * ScalarRef now accepts references to other references. (Closes RT#50934)
731 0.95 Thu, Feb 4, 2010
735 * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Code now provides execute_method as
736 a delegation option. This allows the code reference to be called as a
737 method on the object. (Florian Ragwitz)
741 * Moose::Object::does no longer checks the entire inheritance tree, since
742 Moose::Meta::Class::does_role already does this. (doy)
744 * Moose::Util::add_method_modifier (and subsequently the sugar functions
745 Moose::before, Moose::after, and Moose::around) can now accept arrayrefs,
746 with the same behavior as lists. Types other than arrayref and regexp
747 result in an error. (Dylan Hardison)
749 0.94 Mon, Jan 18, 2010
753 * Please see the changes listed for 0.93_01 and Moose::Manual::Delta.
757 * Improved support for anonymous roles by changing various APIs to take
758 Moose::Meta::Role objects as well as role names. This included
760 - Moose::Meta::Class->does_role
761 - Moose::Meta::Role->does_role
762 - Moose::Util::does_role
763 - Moose::Util::apply_all_roles
764 - Moose::Util::ensure_all_roles
765 - Moose::Util::search_class_by_role
767 Requested by Shawn Moore. Addresses RT #51143 (and then some). (Dave Rolsky)
771 * Fix handling of non-alphanumeric attributes names like '@foo'. This should
772 work as long as the accessor method names are explicitly set to valid Perl
773 method names. Reported by Doug Treder. RT #53731. (Dave Rolsky)
776 0.93_03 Tue, Jan 5, 2010
780 * Portability fixes to our XS code so we compile with 5.8.8 and Visual
781 C++. Fixes RT #53391. Reported by Taro Nishino. (rafl)
784 0.93_02 Tue, Jan 5, 2010
788 * Depend on Class::MOP 0.97_01 so we can get useful results from CPAN
789 testers. (Dave Rolsky)
792 0.93_01 Mon, Jan 4, 2010
796 See Moose::Manual::Delta for more details on backwards compatiblity issues.
798 * Role attributes are now objects of the Moose::Meta::Role::Attribute
799 class. (Dave Rolsky).
801 * There were major changes to how metaroles are applied. We now distinguish
802 between metaroles for classes vs those for roles. See the
803 Moose::Util::MetaRole docs for details. (Dave Rolsky)
805 * The old MetaRole API has been deprecated, but will continue to
806 work. However, if you are applying an attribute metaclass role, this may
807 break because of the fact that roles now have an attribute metaclass
810 * Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_metaclass_roles is now called
811 apply_metaroles. The old name is deprecated. (Dave Rolsky)
813 * The unimport subs created by Moose::Exporter now clean up re-exported
814 functions like blessed and confess, unless the caller imported them from
815 somewhere else too. See Moose::Manua::Delta for backcompat details. (rafl)
817 [ENHANCEMENTS AND BUG FIXES]
819 * Changed the Str constraint to accept magic lvalue strings like one gets from
820 substr et al, again. (sorear)
822 * Sped up the type constraint parsing regex. (Sam Vilain)
824 * The Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2 recipe was broken. Fix suggested by
827 * Added Moose::Util::TypeConstraints exports when using oose.pm to allow
828 easier testing of TypeConstraints from the command line. (perigrin)
830 * Added a with_immutable test function to Test::Moose, to run a block of tests
831 with and without certain classes being immutable. (doy)
833 * We now use Module::Install extensions explicitly to avoid confusing errors
834 if they're not installed. We use Module::Install::AuthorRequires to stop
835 test extraction and general failures if you don't have the author side
836 dependencies installed.
838 * Fixed a grammar error in Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe4. rt.cpan.org
839 #51791. (Amir E. Aharoni)
842 0.93 Thu, Nov 19, 2009
844 - Calling $object->new() is no longer deprecated, and no longer
848 - The get_attribute_map method is now deprecated. (Dave Rolsky)
850 * Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
851 - Preserve variable aliasing in @_ for delegated methods, so that
852 altering @_ affects the passed value. (doy)
854 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
855 - Allow array refs for non-anonymous form of enum and duck_type, not
856 just anonymous. The non-arrayref forms may be removed in the
858 - Changed Str constraint to not accept globs (*STDIN or *FOO). (chansen)
859 - Properly document Int being a subtype of Str. (doy)
862 - Moose::Exporter using modules can now export their functions to the
863 main package. This applied to Moose and Moose::Role, among
864 others. (nothingmuch)
866 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
867 - Don't remove attribute accessors we never installed, during
868 remove_accessors. (doy)
870 * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Array
871 - Don't bypass prototype checking when calling List::Util::first, to
872 avoid a segfault when it is called with a non-code argument. (doy)
874 * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Code
875 - Fix passing arguments to code execute helpers. (doy)
877 0.92 Tue, Sep 22, 2009
878 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
879 - added the match_on_type operator (Stevan)
880 - added tests and docs for this (Stevan)
883 - Metaclass compat fixing should already happen recursively, there's no
884 need to explicitly walk up the inheritance tree. (doy)
886 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
887 - Add tests for set_raw_value and get_raw_value. (nothingmuch)
889 0.91 Thu, Sep 17, 2009
891 - Don't import any functions, in order to avoid polluting our namespace
892 with things that can look like methods (blessed, try, etc)
895 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
896 - The generated code needs to called Scalar::Util::blessed by its
897 fully-qualified name or else Perl can interpret the call to blessed as
898 an indirect method call. This broke Search::GIN, which in turn broke
899 KiokuDB. (nothingmuch)
901 0.90 Tue, Sep 15, 2009
902 * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Counter
903 * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::String
904 - For these two traits, an attribute which did not explicitly provide
905 methods to handles magically ended up delegating *all* the helper
906 methods. This has been removed. You must be explicit in your handles
907 declaration for all Native Traits. (Dave Rolsky)
910 - DEMOLISHALL behavior has changed. If any DEMOLISH method dies, we make
911 sure to rethrow its error message. However, we also localize $@ before
912 this so that if all the DEMOLISH methods success, the value of $@ will
913 be preserved. (nothingmuch and Dave Rolsky)
914 - We now also localize $? during object destruction. (nothingmuch and
916 - The handling of DEMOLISH methods was broken for immutablized classes,
917 which were not receiving the value of
918 Devel::GlobalDestruction::in_global_destruction.
919 - These two fixes address some of RT #48271, reported by Zefram.
920 - This is all now documented in Moose::Manual::Construction.
921 - Calling $object->new() is now deprecated. A warning will be
925 - Added more hooks to customize how roles are applied. The role
926 summation class, used to create composite roles, can now be changed
927 and/or have meta-roles applied to it. (rafl)
928 - The get_method_list method no longer explicitly excludes the "meta"
929 method. This was a hack that has been replaced by better hacks. (Dave
932 * Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
933 - fixed delegated methods to make sure that any modifiers attached to
934 the accessor being delegated on will be called (Stevan)
935 - added tests for this (Stevan)
938 - Moose no longer warns when a class that is being made immutable has
939 mutable ancestors. While in theory this is a good thing to warn about,
940 we found so many exceptions to this that doing this properly became
943 0.89_02 Thu, Sep 10, 2009
944 * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native
945 - Fix Hash, which still had 'empty' instead of 'is_empty'. (hdp)
947 * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Array
948 - Added a number of functions from List::Util and List::MoreUtils,
949 including reduce, shuffle, uniq, and natatime. (doy)
952 - This module will now generate an init_meta method for your exporting
953 class if you pass it options for
954 Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_metaclass_roles or
955 apply_base_class_roles. This eliminates a lot of repetitive
956 boilerplate for typical MooseX modules. (doy).
957 - Documented the with_meta feature, which is a replacement for
958 with_caller. This feature was added by josh a while ago.
959 - The with_caller feature is now deprecated, but will not issue a
960 warning yet. (Dave Rolsky)
961 - If you try to wrap/export a subroutine which doesn't actually exist,
962 Moose::Exporter will warn you about this. (doy)
964 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToRole
965 - When a role aliased a method from another role, it was only getting
966 the new (aliased) name, not the original name. This differed from what
967 happens when a class aliases a role's methods. If you _only_ want the
968 aliased name, make sure to also exclue the original name. (Dave
971 0.89_01 Wed Sep 2, 2009
972 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
973 - Added the currying syntax for delegation from AttributeHelpers to the
974 existing delegation API. (hdp)
976 * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native
977 - We have merged the functionality of MooseX::AttributeHelpers into the
978 Moose core with some API tweaks. You can continue to use
979 MooseX::AttributeHelpers, but it will not be maintained except
980 (perhaps) for critical bug fixes in the future. See
981 Moose::Manual::Delta for details. (hdp, jhannah, rbuels, Sartak,
984 * Moose::Error::Croak
985 * Moose::Error::Confess
986 - Clarify documentation on how to use different error-throwing
987 modules. (Curtis Jewell)
990 - Correct POD for builder to point to Recipe8, not 9. (gphat)
993 - When a nonexistent sub name is passed to as_is, with_caller, or
994 with_meta, throw a warning and skip the exporting, rather than
995 installing a broken sub. (doy)
998 - Moose now warns if you call C<make_immutable> for a class with mutable
1001 0.89 Thu Aug 13, 2009
1002 * Moose::Manual::Attributes
1003 - Clarify "is", include discussion of "bare". (Sartak)
1005 * Moose::Meta::Role::Method::Conflicting
1006 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToClass
1007 - For the first set of roles involved in a conflict, report all
1008 unresolved method conflicts, not just the first method. Fixes #47210
1009 reported by Ovid. (Sartak)
1011 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1012 - Add assert_valid method to use a TypeConstraint for assertion (rjbs)
1015 - Make "use Moose -metaclass => 'Foo'" do alias resolution, like -traits
1017 - Allow specifying role options (alias, excludes, MXRP stuff) in the
1018 arrayref passed to "use Moose -traits" (doy)
1021 - Add functions meta_class_alias and meta_attribute_alias for creating
1022 aliases for class and attribute metaclasses and metatraits. (doy)
1024 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1025 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1026 - A trigger now receives the old value as a second argument, if the
1027 attribute had one. (Dave Rolsky)
1029 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1030 - Fix a bug with $obj->new when $obj has stringify overloading.
1031 Reported by Andrew Suffield [rt.cpan.org #47882] (Sartak)
1032 - However, we will probably deprecate $obj->new, so please don't start
1033 using it for new code!
1035 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application
1036 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::RoleSummation
1037 - Rename alias and excludes to -alias and -excludes (but keep the old
1038 names for now, for backcompat) (doy)
1040 0.88 Fri Jul 24, 2009
1041 * Moose::Manual::Contributing
1042 - Re-write the Moose::Manual::Contributing document to reflect
1043 the new layout and methods of work for the Git repository. All
1044 work now should be done in topic branches and reviewed by a
1045 core committer before being applied to master. All releases
1046 are done by a cabal member and merged from master to
1047 stable. This plan was devised by Yuval, blame him. (perigrin)
1050 - Create metaclass attributes for the different role application
1053 * Moose::Util::MetaRole
1054 - Allow applying roles to a meta role's role application
1057 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1058 - Add weak_ref to allowed options for "has '+foo'" (mst)
1060 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1061 - No longer uses inline_slot_access in accessors, to support
1062 non-lvalue-based meta instances. (sorear)
1064 0.87 Tue Jul 7, 2009
1065 * Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
1066 - Once again allow class names as well as objects for
1067 delegation. This was changed in 0.86.
1069 0.86 Fri Jul 3, 2009
1070 * Moose::Meta::Class::Immutable::Trait
1071 - Fixes to work with the latest Class::MOP.
1073 * Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
1074 - Delegation now dies with a more useful error message if the
1075 attribute's accessor returns something defined but
1078 0.85 Fri, Jun 26, 2009
1079 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1080 - The warning for 'no associated methods' is now split out into
1081 the _check_associated_methods method, so that extensions can
1082 safely call 'after install_accessors => ...'. This fixes a
1083 warning from MooseX::AttributeHelpers. (hdp)
1085 0.84 Fri, Jun 26, 2009
1087 - has now sets definition_context for attributes defined in
1090 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1091 - When adding an attribute to a metaclass, if the attribute has
1092 no associated methods, it will give a deprecation
1094 - Methods generated by delegation were not being added to
1095 associated_methods. (hdp)
1096 - Attribute accessors (reader, writer, accessor, predicate,
1097 clearer) now warn if they overwrite an existing method. (doy)
1098 - Attribute constructors now warn very noisily about unknown (or
1099 misspelled) arguments
1101 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1102 - Deprecated the totally useless Role type name, which just
1103 checked if $object->can('does'). Note that this is _not_ the
1104 same as a type created by calling role_type('RoleName').
1106 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1107 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::DuckType
1108 - Reify duck type from a regular subtype into an actual class
1110 - Document this because Sartak did all my work for me
1113 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1114 - Allow Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::DuckType in handles, since
1115 it is just a list of methods (Sartak)
1118 - The get_*_method_modifiers methods would die if the role had
1119 no modifiers of the given type (Robert Buels).
1121 0.83 Tue, Jun 23, 2009
1122 * Moose::Meta::Class
1123 - Fix _construct_instance not setting the special __MOP__ object
1124 key in instances of anon classes. (doy)
1126 0.82 Sun, Jun 21, 2009
1127 * Moose::Manual::Types
1128 - Mention MooseX::Types early to avoid users falling down the
1129 string parsing rathole (mst)
1131 * Moose::Manual::MooseX
1132 - Add warnings about class-level extensions and mention considering
1133 using plain objects instead
1135 0.81 Sun, Jun 7, 2009
1136 * Bumped our Class::MOP prereq to the latest version (0.85), since
1137 that's what we need.
1139 0.80 Sat, Jun 6, 2009
1140 * Moose::Manual::FAQ
1141 - Add FAQ about the coercion change from 0.76 because it came up
1142 three times today (perigrin)
1143 - Win doy $10 dollars because Sartak didn't think anybody
1144 would document this fast enough (perigrin)
1146 * Moose::Meta::Method::Destructor
1147 - Inline a DESTROY method even if there are no DEMOLISH methods
1148 to prevent unnecessary introspection in
1149 Moose::Object::DEMOLISHALL
1152 - A role's required methods are now represented by
1153 Moose::Meta::Role::Method::Required objects. Conflicts are now
1154 represented by Moose::Meta::Role::Method::Conflicting
1155 objects. The benefit for end-users in that unresolved
1156 conflicts generate different, more instructive, errors,
1157 resolving Ovid's #44895. (Sartak)
1160 - Improve the error message of "extends" as suggested by Adam
1161 Kennedy and confound (Sartak)
1162 - Link to Moose::Manual::Roles from Moose::Role as we now have
1163 excellent documentation (Adam Kennedy)
1166 - Update test suite for subname change in Class::MOP
1168 - Add TODO test for infinite recursion in Moose::Meta::Class
1171 0.79 Wed, May 13, 2009
1173 - More fixes for Win32 problems. Reported by Robert Krimen.
1176 - The DEMOLISHALL method could still blow up in some cases
1177 during global destruction. This method has been made more
1178 resilient in the face of global destruction's random garbage
1182 - If you "also" a module that isn't loaded, the error message
1183 now acknowledges that (Sartak)
1186 - When your ->meta method does not return a Moose::Meta::Class,
1187 the error message gave the wrong output (Sartak)
1189 0.78 Tue, May 12, 2009
1190 * Moose::Cookbook::FAQ and Moose::Cookbook::WTF
1191 - Merged these documents into what is now Moose::Manual::FAQ
1193 * Moose::Unsweetened
1194 - Moved to Moose::Manual::Unsweetened
1196 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipes 9-12
1197 - Renamed to be 8-11, since recipe 8 did not exist
1200 - Make Moose::Exporter import strict and warnings into packages
1204 - Fix DEMOLISHALL sometimes not being able to find DEMOLISH
1205 methods during global destruction (doy)
1207 * Moose::Meta::Class
1208 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToClass
1209 - Track the Role::Application objects created during class-role
1210 consumption (Sartak)
1212 * Moose::Meta::Class
1213 - Fix metaclass incompatibility errors when extending a vanilla perl
1214 class which isa Moose class with a metaclass role applied (t0m)
1217 - Add a role-combination hook, _role_for_combination, for the
1218 benefit of MooseX::Role::Parameterized (Sartak)
1221 - Some tests were failing on Win32 because they explicit checked
1222 warning output for newlines. Reported by Nickolay Platonov.
1224 0.77 Sat, May 2, 2009
1226 - Add explicit use of Devel::GlobalDestruction and Sub::Name
1230 - Pass a boolean to DEMOLISHALL and DEMOLISH indicating whether
1231 or not we are currently in global destruction (doy)
1232 - Add explicit use of Devel::GlobalDestruction and Sub::Name
1235 * Moose::Cookbook::FAQ
1236 - Reworked much of the existing content to be more useful to
1237 modern Moose hackers (Sartak)
1240 - Depend on Class::MOP 0.83 instead of 0.82_01.
1242 0.76 Mon, April 27, 2009
1243 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1244 - Do not run coercions in coerce() if the value already passes the type
1247 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class
1248 - In validation error messages, specifically say that the value is not
1249 an instance of the class. This should alleviate some frustrating
1250 forgot-to-load-my-type bugs. rt.cpan.org #44639 (Sartak)
1252 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToClass
1253 - Revert the class-overrides-role warning in favor of a solution outside
1254 of the Moose core (Sartak)
1257 - Make Test::Output optional again, since it's only used in a few files
1260 0.75_01 Thu, April 23, 2009
1261 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToClass
1262 - Moose now warns about each class overriding methods from roles it
1266 - Warnings tests have standardized on Test::Output which is now an
1267 unconditionally dependency (Sartak)
1269 * Moose::Meta::Class
1270 - Changes to immutabilization to work with Class::MOP 0.82_01+.
1272 0.75 Mon, April 20, 2009
1274 * Moose::Meta::Class
1275 - Move validation of not inheriting from roles from Moose::extends to
1276 Moose::Meta::Class::superclasses (doy)
1279 - add ensure_all_roles() function to encapsulate the common "apply this
1280 role unless the object already does it" pattern (hdp)
1283 - Users can now select a different metaclass with the "-metaclass"
1284 option to import, for classes and roles (Sartak)
1287 - Make method_metaclass an attr so that it can accept a metarole
1290 0.74 Tue, April 7, 2009
1292 * Moose::Meta::Method::Destructor
1293 - Include stack traces in the deprecation warnings.
1296 * Moose::Meta::Class
1297 - Removed the long-deprecated _apply_all_roles method.
1299 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1300 - Removed the long-deprecated union method.
1303 0.73_02 Mon, April 6, 2009
1304 * More deprecations and renamings
1305 - Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1306 - initialize_body => _initialize_body (this is always called
1307 when an object is constructed)
1310 - The DEMOLISHALL method could throw an exception during global
1311 destruction, meaning that your class's DEMOLISH methods would
1312 not be properly called. Reported by t0m.
1314 * Moose::Meta::Method::Destructor
1315 - Destructor inlining was totally broken by the change to the
1316 is_needed method in 0.72_01. Now there is a test for this
1317 feature, and it works again.
1320 - Bold the word 'not' in the POD for find_meta (t0m)
1322 0.73_01 Sun, April 5, 2009
1324 - Call user_class->meta in fewer places, with the eventual goal
1325 of allowing the user to rename or exclude ->meta
1326 altogether. Instead uses Class::MOP::class_of. (Sartak)
1328 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1329 - If an attribute had a lazy default, and that value did not
1330 pass the attribute's type constraint, it did not get the
1331 message from the type constraint, instead using a generic
1332 message. Test provided by perigrin.
1334 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1335 - Add duck_type keyword. It's sugar over making sure an object
1336 can() a list of methods. This is easier than jrockway's
1337 suggestion to fork all of CPAN. (perigrin)
1338 - add tests and documentation (perigrin)
1341 - Document the fact that init_meta() returns the target class's
1342 metaclass object. (hdp)
1344 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
1345 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
1346 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe3
1347 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe4
1348 - Make init_meta() examples explicitly return the metaclass and
1349 point out this fact. (hdp)
1351 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe12
1352 - A new recipe, creating a custom meta-method class.
1354 * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe6
1355 - A new recipe, creating a custom meta-method class.
1357 * Moose::Meta::Class
1358 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1359 - Attribute triggers no longer receive the meta-attribute object
1360 as an argument in any circumstance. Previously, triggers
1361 called during instance construction were passed the
1362 meta-attribute, but triggers called by normal accessors were
1363 not. Fixes RT#44429, reported by Mark Swayne. (hdp)
1365 * Moose::Manual::Attributes
1366 - Remove references to triggers receving the meta-attribute object as an
1369 * Moose::Cookbook::FAQ
1370 - Remove recommendation for deprecated Moose::Policy and
1371 Moose::Policy::FollowPBP; recommend MooseX::FollowPBP
1374 * Many methods have been renamed with a leading underscore, and a
1375 few have been deprecated entirely. The methods with a leading
1376 underscore are consider "internals only". People writing
1377 subclasses or extensions to Moose should feel free to override
1378 them, but they are not for "public" use.
1380 - Moose::Meta::Class
1381 - check_metaclass_compatibility => _check_metaclass_compatibility
1383 - Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1384 - initialize_body => _initialize_body (this is always called
1385 when an object is constructed)
1386 - /(generate_.*_method(?:_inline)?)/ => '_' . $1
1388 - Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1389 - initialize_body => _initialize_body (this is always called
1390 when an object is constructed)
1391 - /(generate_constructor_method(?:_inline)?)/ => '_' . $1
1392 - attributes => _attributes (now inherited from parent)
1393 - meta_instance => _meta_instance (now inherited from parent)
1396 - alias_method is deprecated. Use add_method
1398 0.73 Fri, March 29, 2009
1399 * No changes from 0.72_01.
1401 0.72_01 Thu, March 26, 2009
1403 - Almost every module has complete API documentation. A few
1404 methods (and even whole classes) have been intentionally
1405 excluded pending some rethinking of their APIs.
1407 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1408 - Calling subtype with a name as the only argument is now an
1409 exception. If you want an anonymous subtype do:
1411 my $subtype = subtype as 'Foo';
1413 * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe7
1414 - A new recipe, creating a custom meta-instance class.
1416 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe5
1417 - Fix various typos and mistakes. Includes a patch from Radu
1420 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe9
1421 - Link to this recipe from Moose.pm's builder blurb
1424 - When wrapping a function with a prototype, Moose::Exporter now
1425 makes sure the wrapped function still has the same
1426 prototype. (Daisuke Maki)
1428 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1429 - Allow a subclass to set lazy_build for an inherited
1433 - Explicitly depend on Data::OptList. We already had this dependency
1434 via Sub::Exporter, but since we're using it directly we're
1435 better off with it listed. (Sartak)
1437 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1438 - Make it easier to subclass the inlining behaviour. (Ash
1441 * Moose::Manual::Delta
1442 - Details significant changes in the history of Moose, along
1443 with recommended workarounds.
1445 * Moose::Manual::Contributing
1446 - Contributor's guide to Moose.
1448 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1449 - The long-deprecated intialize_body method has been removed
1450 (yes, spelled like that).
1452 * Moose::Meta::Method::Destructor
1453 - This is_needed method is now always a class method.
1455 * Moose::Meta::Class
1456 - Changes to the internals of how make_immutable works to match
1457 changes in latest Class::MOP.
1459 0.72 Mon, February 23, 2009
1461 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1462 - A mutable class accepted Foo->new(undef) without complaint,
1463 while an immutable class would blow up with an unhelpful
1464 error. Now, in both cases we throw a helpful error
1465 instead. Reported by doy.
1467 0.71_01 Sun, February 22, 2009
1469 - Hopefully fixed some POD errors in a few recipes that caused
1470 them to display weird on search.cpan.org.
1472 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1473 - Calling type or subtype without the sugar helpers (as, where,
1474 message) is now deprecated.
1475 - The subtype function tried hard to guess what you meant, but
1476 often got it wrong. For example:
1478 my $subtype = subtype as 'ArrayRef[Object]';
1480 This caused an error in the past, but now works as you'd
1484 - Make sure Moose.pm is loaded before calling
1485 Moose->throw_error. This wasn't normally an issue, but could
1486 bite you in weird cases.
1488 0.71 Thu, February 19, 2009
1489 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe11
1490 - A new recipe which demonstrates the use of BUILDARGS and
1491 BUILD. (Dave Rolsky)
1493 * Moose::Cookbook::Roles::Recipe3
1494 - A new recipe, applying a role to an object instance. (Dave
1498 - Allow overriding specific keywords from "also" packages. (doy)
1501 - Replace hardcoded cookbook tests with Test::Inline to ensure
1502 the tests match the actual code in the recipes. (Dave Rolsky)
1505 - Working on the above turned up a number of little bugs in the
1506 recipe code. (Dave Rolsky)
1508 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints::Optimized
1509 - Just use Class::MOP for the optimized ClassName check. (Dave
1512 0.70 Sat, February 14, 2009
1513 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1514 - Added the RoleName type (stevan)
1515 - added tests for this (stevan)
1517 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe3
1518 - Updated the before qw[left right] sub to be a little more
1519 defensive about what it accepts (stevan)
1520 - added more tests to t/000_recipies/basics/003_binary_tree.t
1524 - We now always call DEMOLISHALL, even if a class does not
1525 define DEMOLISH. This makes sure that method modifiers on
1526 DEMOLISHALL work as expected. (doy)
1527 - added tests for this (EvanCarroll)
1529 * Moose::Util::MetaRole
1530 - Accept roles for the wrapped_method_metaclass (rafl)
1531 - added tests for this (rafl)
1533 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1534 - We no longer pass the meta-attribute object as a final
1535 argument to triggers. This actually changed for inlined code a
1536 while back, but the non-inlined version and the docs were
1540 - Some tests tried to use Test::Warn 0.10, which had bugs. Now
1541 they require 0.11. (Dave Rolsky)
1544 - Lots of small changes to the manual, cookbook, and
1545 elsewhere. These were based on feedback from various
1546 users, too many to list here. (Dave Rolsky)
1548 0.69 Thu, February 12, 2009
1550 - Make some keyword errors use throw_error instead of croak
1551 since Moose::Exporter wraps keywords now (Sartak)
1553 * Moose::Cookbook::*
1554 - Revised every recipe for style and clarity. Also moved some
1555 documentation out of cookbook recipes and into Moose::Manual
1556 pages. This work was funded as part of the Moose docs grant
1557 from TPF. (Dave Rolsky)
1559 * Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
1560 - If the attribute doing the delegation was not populated, the
1561 error message did not specify the attribute name
1564 0.68 Wed, February 4, 2009
1566 - Many spelling, typo, and formatting fixes by daxim.
1568 * Moose::Manual::Attributes
1569 - The NAME section in the POD used "Attribute" so search.cpan
1570 didn't resolve links from other documents properly.
1572 * Moose::Meta::Method::Overriden
1573 - Now properly spelled as Overridden. Thanks to daxim for
1576 0.67 Tue, February 3, 2009
1578 - Lots of little typo fixes and a few clarifications. Several
1579 pages didn't have proper titles, and so weren't actually
1580 visible on search.cpan.org. Thanks to hanekomu for a variety
1581 of fixes and formatting improvements.
1583 0.66 Tue, February 3, 2009
1585 - This is a brand new, extensive manual for Moose. This aims to
1586 provide a complete introduction to all of Moose's
1587 features. This work was funded as part of the Moose docs grant
1588 from TPF. (Dave Rolsky)
1590 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1591 - Added a delegation_metaclass method to replace a hard-coded
1592 use of Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation. (Dave Rolsky)
1594 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1595 - If you created a subtype and passed a parent that Moose didn't
1596 know about, it simply ignored the parent. Now it automatically
1597 creates the parent as a class type. This may not be what you
1598 want, but is less broken than before. (Dave Rolsky)
1600 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1601 - This module tried throw errors by calling Moose->throw_error,
1602 but it did not ensure that Moose was loaded first. This could
1603 cause very unhelpful errors when it tried to throw an error
1604 before Moose was loaded. (Dave Rolsky)
1606 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1607 - You could declare a name with subtype such as "Foo!Bar" that
1608 would be allowed, but if you used it in a parameterized type
1609 such as "ArrayRef[Foo!Bar]" it wouldn't work. We now do some
1610 vetting on names created via the sugar functions, so that they
1611 can only contain alphanumerics, ":", and ".". (Dave Rolsky)
1613 0.65 Thu, January 22, 2009
1614 * Moose and Moose::Meta::Method::Overridden
1615 - If an overridden method called super(), and then the
1616 superclass's method (not overridden) _also_ called super(),
1617 Moose went into an endless recursion loop. Test provided by
1618 Chris Prather. (Dave Rolsky)
1620 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1621 - All methods are now documented. (gphat)
1623 * t/100_bugs/011_DEMOLISH_eats_exceptions.t
1624 - Fixed some bogus failures that occurred because we tried to
1625 validate filesystem paths in a very ad-hoc and
1626 not-quite-correct way. (Dave Rolsky)
1628 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1629 - Added maybe_type to exports. See docs for details. (rjbs)
1632 - Added Moose::Util::TypeConstraints to the SEE ALSO
1636 - Methods created via an attribute can now fulfill a "requires"
1637 declaration for a role. (nothingmuch)
1639 * Moose::Meta::Method::*
1640 - Stack traces from inlined code will now report its line and
1641 file as being in your class, as opposed to in Moose
1642 guts. (nothingmuch).
1644 0.64 Wed, December 31, 2008
1645 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1646 - Always inline predicate and clearer methods (Sartak)
1648 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1649 - Support for parameterized traits (Sartak)
1650 - verify_against_type_constraint method to avoid duplication
1651 and enhance extensibility (Sartak)
1653 * Moose::Meta::Class
1654 - Tests (but no support yet) for parameterized traits (Sartak)
1657 - Require Class::MOP 0.75+, which has the side effect of making
1658 sure we work on Win32. (Dave Rolsky)
1660 0.63 Mon, December 8, 2008
1661 * Moose::Unsweetened
1662 - Some small grammar tweaks and bug fixes in non-Moose example
1665 0.62_02 Fri, December 5, 2008
1666 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToClass
1667 - When a class does not provide all of a role's required
1668 methods, the error thrown now mentions all of the missing
1669 methods, as opposed to just the first one found. Requested by
1670 Curtis Poe (RT #41119). (Dave Rolsky)
1672 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1673 - Moose will no longer inline a constructor for your class
1674 unless it inherits its constructor from Moose::Object, and
1675 will warn when it doesn't inline. If you want to force
1676 inlining anyway, pass "replace_constructor => 1" to
1677 make_immutable. Addresses RT #40968, reported by Jon
1678 Swartz. (Dave Rolsky)
1679 - The quoting of default values could be broken if the default
1680 contained a single quote ('). Now we use quotemeta to escape
1681 anything potentially dangerous in the defaults. (Dave Rolsky)
1683 0.62_01 Wed, December 3, 2008
1685 - use the method->execute API for BUILDALL
1686 and DEMOLISHALL (Sartak)
1688 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1689 - We now make all the type constraint meta classes immutable
1690 before creating the default types provided by Moose. This
1691 should make loading Moose a little faster. (Dave Rolsky)
1693 0.62 Wed November 26, 2008
1694 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToClass
1695 Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToRole
1696 - fixed issues where excluding and aliasing the
1697 same methods for a single role did not work
1698 right (worked just fine with multiple
1700 - added test for this (stevan)
1702 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::RoleSummation
1703 - fixed the error message when trying to compose
1704 a role with a role it excludes (Sartak)
1707 - Catch another case where recursion caused the value
1708 of $CALLER to be stamped on (t0m)
1709 - added test for this (t0m)
1712 - Remove the make_immutable keyword, which has been
1713 deprecated since April. It breaks metaclasses that
1714 use Moose without no Moose (Sartak)
1716 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1717 - Removing an attribute from a class now also removes delegation
1718 (handles) methods installed for that attribute (t0m)
1719 - added test for this (t0m)
1721 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1722 - An attribute with a default that looked like a number (but was
1723 really a string) would accidentally be treated as a number
1724 when the constructor was made immutable (perigrin)
1725 - added test for this (perigrin)
1728 - create method for constructing a role
1729 dynamically (Sartak)
1730 - added test for this (Sartak)
1731 - anonymous roles! (Sartak)
1732 - added test for this (Sartak)
1735 - more consistent error messages (Sartak)
1737 * Moose::Cookbook::Roles::Recipe1
1738 - attempt to explain why a role that just requires
1739 methods is useful (Sartak)
1741 0.61 Fri November 7, 2008
1742 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1743 - When passing a role to handles, it will be loaded if necessary
1746 * Moose::Meta::Class
1747 - Method objects returned by get_method (and other methods)
1748 Could end up being returned without an associated_metaclass
1749 attribute. Removing get_method_map, which is provided by
1750 Class::MOP::Class, fixed this. The Moose version did nothing
1751 different from its parent except introduce a bug. (Dave Rolsky)
1752 - added tests for this (jdv79)
1755 - Added a $VERSION to all .pm files which didn't have one. Fixes
1756 RT #40049, reported by Adam Kennedy. (Dave Rolsky)
1758 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe4
1759 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe6
1760 - These files had spaces on the first line of the SYNOPSIS, as
1761 opposed to a totally empty line. According to RT #40432, this
1762 confuses POD parsers. (Dave Rolsky)
1764 0.60 Fri October 24, 2008
1766 - Passing "-traits" when loading Moose caused the Moose.pm
1767 exports to be broken. Reported by t0m. (Dave Rolsky)
1768 - Tests for this bug. (t0m)
1771 - Change resolve_metaclass alias to use the new
1772 load_first_existing_class function. This makes it a lot
1773 simpler, and also around 5 times faster. (t0m)
1774 - Add caching to resolve_metaclass_alias, which gives an order
1775 of magnitude speedup to things which repeatedly call the
1776 Moose::Meta::Attribute->does method, notably MooseX::Storage
1779 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraint
1780 - Put back the changes for parameterized constraints that
1781 shouldn't have been removed in 0.59. We still cannot parse
1782 them, but MooseX modules can create them in some other
1783 way. See the 0.58 changes for more details. (jnapiorkowski)
1784 - Changed the way subtypes are created so that the job is
1785 delegated to a type constraint parent. This clears up some
1786 hardcoded checking and should allow correct subtypes of
1787 Moose::Meta::Type::Constraint. Don't rely on this new API too
1788 much (create_child_type) because it may go away in the
1789 future. (jnapiorkowski)
1791 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
1792 - Type constraint names are sorted as strings, not numbers.
1795 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Parameterizable
1796 - New parameterize method. This can be used as a factory method
1797 to make a new type constraint with a given parameterized
1798 type. (jnapiorkowski)
1799 - added tests (jnapiorkowski)
1801 0.59 Tue October 14, 2008
1803 - Add abridged documentation for builder/default/initializer/
1804 predicate, and link to more details sections in
1805 Class::MOP::Attribute. (t0m)
1807 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1808 - removed prototypes from all but the &-based stuff (mst)
1810 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1811 - Creating a anonymous subtype with both a constraint and a
1812 message failed with a very unhelpful error, but should just
1813 work. Reported by t0m. (Dave Rolsky)
1816 - Some tests that used Test::Warn if it was available failed
1817 with older versions of Test::Warn. Reported by Fayland. (Dave
1819 - Test firing behavior of triggers in relation to builder/default/
1821 - Test behavior of equals/is_a_type_of/is_a_subtype_of for all
1822 kinds of supported type. (t0m)
1824 * Moose::Meta::Class
1825 - In create(), do not pass "roles" option to the superclass
1826 - added related test that creates an anon metaclass with
1827 a required attribute
1829 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class
1830 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Role
1831 - Unify behavior of equals/is_a_type_of/is_a_subtype_of with
1832 other types (as per change in 0.55_02). (t0m)
1834 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Registry
1835 - Fix warning when dealing with unknown type names (t0m)
1837 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1838 - Reverted changes from 0.58 related to handle parameterized
1839 types. This caused random failures on BSD and Win32 systems,
1840 apparently related to the regex engine. This means that Moose
1841 can no longer parse structured type constraints like
1842 ArrayRef[Int,Int] or HashRef[name=>Str]. This will be
1843 supported in a slightly different way via MooseX::Types some
1844 time in the future. (Dave Rolsky)
1846 0.58 Sat September 20, 2008
1847 !! This release has an incompatible change regarding !!
1848 !! how roles add methods to a class !!
1850 * Roles and role application
1851 ! Roles now add methods by calling add_method, not
1852 alias_method. They make sure to always provide a method
1853 object, which will be cloned internally. This means that it is
1854 now possible to track the source of a method provided by a
1855 role, and even follow its history through intermediate roles.
1857 This means that methods added by a role now show up when
1858 looking at a class's method list/map. (Dave Rolsky)
1861 - From this release on, we'll try to maintain a list of
1862 conflicting modules, and warn you if you have one
1863 installed. For example, this release conflicts with ...
1864 - MooseX::Singleton <= 0.11
1865 - MooseX::Params::Validate <= 0.05
1868 In general, we try to not break backwards compatibility for
1869 most Moose users, but MooseX modules and other code which
1870 extends Moose's metaclasses is often affected by very small
1871 changes in the Moose internals.
1873 * Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
1874 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1875 - Delegation methods now have their own method class. (Dave
1878 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Parameterizable
1879 - Added a new method 'parameterize' which is basically a factory
1880 for the containing constraint. This makes it easier to create
1881 new types of parameterized constraints. (jnapiorkowski)
1883 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
1884 - Changed the way Union types canonicalize their names to follow
1885 the normalized TC naming rules, which means we strip all
1886 whitespace. (jnapiorkowski)
1888 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1889 - Parameter and Union args are now sorted, this makes Int|Str
1890 the same constraint as Str|Int. (jnapiorkowski)
1891 - Changes to the way Union types are parsed to more correctly
1892 stringify their names. (jnapiorkowski)
1893 - When creating a parameterized type, we now use the new
1894 parameterize method. (jnapiorkowski)
1895 - Incoming type constraint strings are now normalized to remove
1896 all whitespace differences. (jnapiorkowski)
1897 - Changed the way we parse type constraint strings so that we now
1898 match TC[Int,Int,...] and TC[name=>Str] as parameterized type
1899 constraints. This lays the foundation for more flexible type
1900 constraint implementations.
1902 * Tests and docs for all the above. (jnapiorkowski)
1906 - Moose::Exporter will no longer remove a subroutine that the
1907 exporting package re-exports. Moose re-exports the
1908 Carp::confess function, among others. The reasoning is that we
1909 cannot know whether you have also explicitly imported those
1910 functions for your own use, so we err on the safe side and
1911 always keep them. (Dave Rolsky)
1912 - added tests for this (rafl)
1914 * Moose::Meta::Class
1915 - Changes to how we fix metaclass compatibility that are much
1916 too complicated to go into. The summary is that Moose is much
1917 less likely to complain about metaclass incompatibility
1918 now. In particular, if two metaclasses differ because
1919 Moose::Util::MetaRole was used on the two corresponding
1920 classes, then the difference in roles is reconciled for the
1921 subclass's metaclass. (Dave Rolsky)
1922 - Squashed an warning in _process_attribute (thepler)
1925 - throw exceptions (sooner) for invalid attribute names (thepler)
1926 - added tests for this (thepler)
1928 * Moose::Util::MetaRole
1929 - If you explicitly set a constructor or destructor class for a
1930 metaclass object, and then applied roles to the metaclass,
1931 that explicitly set class would be lost and replaced with the
1934 * Moose::Meta::Class
1935 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1936 * Moose::Meta::Method
1939 * Moose::Error::Default
1940 * Moose::Error::Croak
1941 * Moose::Error::Confess
1942 - All instances of confess() changed to use overridable
1943 C<throw_error> method. This method ultimately calls a class
1944 constructor, and you can change the class being called. In
1945 addition, errors now pass more information than just a string.
1946 The default C<error_class> behaves like C<Carp::confess>, so
1947 the behavior is not visibly different for end users.
1949 0.57 Wed September 3, 2008
1951 - A new bit of doc intended to introduce folks familiar with
1952 "standard" Perl 5 OO to Moose concepts. (Dave Rolsky)
1954 * Moose::Unsweetened
1955 - Shows examples of two classes, each done first with and then
1956 without Moose. This makes a nice parallel to
1957 Moose::Intro. (Dave Rolsky)
1959 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1960 - Fixed a bug in find_or_parse_type_constraint so that it
1961 accepts a Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint object as the parent
1962 type, not just a name (jnapiorkowski)
1963 - added tests (jnapiorkowski)
1966 - If Sub::Name was not present, unimporting failed to actually
1967 remove some sugar subs, causing test failures (Dave Rolsky)
1969 0.56 Mon September 1, 2008
1970 For those not following the series of dev releases, there are
1971 several major changes in this release of Moose.
1972 ! Moose::init_meta should now be called as a method. See the
1975 - Major performance improvements by nothingmuch.
1977 - New modules for extension writers, Moose::Exporter and
1978 Moose::Util::MetaRole by Dave Rolsky.
1980 - Lots of doc improvements and additions, especially in the
1983 - Various bug fixes.
1985 * Removed all references to the experimental-but-no-longer-needed
1986 Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToMetaclassInstance.
1988 * Require Class::MOP 0.65.
1990 0.55_04 Sat August 30, 2008
1991 * Moose::Util::MetaRole
1992 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
1993 - This simplifies the application of roles to any meta class, as
1994 well as the base object class. Reimplemented metaclass traits
1995 using this module. (Dave Rolsky)
1997 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
1998 - This a new recipe, an overview of various ways to write Moose
1999 extensions (Dave Rolsky)
2001 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe3
2002 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe4
2003 - These used to be Extending::Recipe1 and Extending::Recipe2,
2006 0.55_03 Fri August 29, 2008
2007 * No changes from 0.55_02 except increasing the Class::MOP
2008 dependency to 0.64_07.
2010 0.55_02 Fri August 29, 2008
2011 * Makefile.PL and Moose.pm
2012 - explicitly require Perl 5.8.0+ (Dave Rolsky)
2014 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
2015 - Fix warnings from find_type_constraint if the type is not
2018 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
2019 - Predicate methods (equals/is_a_type_of/is_subtype_of) now
2020 return false if the type you specify cannot be found in the
2021 type registry, rather than throwing an unhelpful and
2022 coincidental exception. (t0m).
2023 - added docs & test for this (t0m)
2025 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Registry
2026 - add_type_constraint now throws an exception if a parameter is
2028 - added docs & test for this (t0m)
2030 * Moose::Cookbook::FAQ
2031 - Added a faq entry on the difference between "role" and "trait"
2035 - Fixed a bug that caused role composition to not see a required
2036 method when that method was provided by another role being
2037 composed at the same time. (Dave Rolsky)
2038 - test and bug finding (tokuhirom)
2040 0.55_01 Wed August 20, 2008
2042 !! Calling Moose::init_meta as a function is now !!
2043 !! deprecated. Please see the Moose.pm docs for details. !!
2045 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
2046 - Fix inlined constructor so that values produced by default
2047 or builder methods are coerced as required. (t0m)
2048 - added test for this (t0m)
2050 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
2051 - A lazy attribute with a default or builder did not attempt to
2052 coerce the default value. The immutable code _did_
2054 - added test for this (t0m)
2057 - This is a new helper module for writing "Moose-alike"
2058 modules. This should make the lives of MooseX module authors

2145 0.54 Thurs. July 3, 2008
2146 ... this is not my day today ...
2148 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
2149 - fixed legal_options_for_inheritance such that
2150 clone_and_inherit options still works for
2151 Class::MOP::Attribute objects and therefore
2152 does not break MooseX::AttributeHelpers
2155 0.53 Thurs. July 3, 2008
2156 * Whoops, I guess I should run 'make manifest' before
2157 actually releasing the module. No actual changes
2158 in this release, except the fact that it includes
2159 the changes that I didn't include in the last
2162 0.52 Thurs. July 3, 2008
2164 - added "FEATURE REQUESTS" section to the Moose docs
2165 to properly direct people (stevan) (RT #34333)

2197 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToRole
2198 - when RoleA did RoleB, and RoleA aliased a method from RoleB in
2199 order to provide its own implementation, that method still got
2200 added to the list of required methods for consumers of
2201 RoleB. Now an aliased method is only added to the list of
2202 required methods if the role doing the aliasing does not
2203 provide its own implementation. See Recipe 11 for an example
2204 of all this. (Dave Rolsky)
2205 - added tests for this
2207 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
2208 - when a single argument that wasn't a hashref was provided to
2209 an immutabilized constructor, the error message was very

2315 0.45 Saturday, May 24, 2008
2317 - Because of work in Class::MOP 0.57, all
2318 XS based functionality is now optional
2319 and a Pure Perl version is supplied
2320 - the CLASS_MOP_NO_XS environment variable
2321 can now be used to force non-XS versions

2424 drink more coffee before
2425 doing release engineering
2427 - whoops, forgot to do the smolder tests,

2755 ++ new oose.pm module to make command line
2756 Moose-ness easier (see POD docs for more)
2758 * Moose::Meta::Class
2760 - several tweaks to take advantage of the
2761 new method map caching in Class::MOP

2768 HashRef for containers (sartak)
2769 - added tests for this
2771 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion

2773 so you can now add coercions to parameterized
2774 types without having to explictly define them
2775 - added tests for this
2777 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
2778 - allow subclasses to decide whether we need
2779 to copy the value into a new variable (sartak)
2781 0.32 Tues. Dec. 4, 2007
2782 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
2783 - fixing how subtype aliases of unions work
2784 they should inherit the parent's coercion
2785 - added tests for this
2786 - you can now define multiple coercions on
2787 a single type at different times instead of
2788 having to do it all in one place
2789 - added tests for this
2791 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
2792 - there is now a default constraint of sub { 1 }
2793 instead of Moose::Util::TypeConstraints setting
2796 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
2797 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion::Union
2798 - added the &has_coercion_for_type and
2799 &add_type_coercions methods to support the

2801 more type coercions for Union types)
2803 0.31 Mon. Nov. 26, 2007
2804 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
2805 - made the +attr syntax handle extending types with

2807 now works if the original foo is an ArrayRef.
2808 - added tests for this.
2809 - delegation now works even if the attribute does not
2810 have a reader method using the get_read_method_ref
2811 method from Class::MOP::Attribute.
2812 - added tests for this
2813 - added docs for this
2815 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
2816 - passing no "additional attribute info" to
2817 &find_or_create_type_constraint will no longer
2818 attempt to create an __ANON__ type for you,
2819 instead it will just return undef.
2820 - added docs for this
2822 0.30 Fri. Nov. 23, 2007

2834 with work correctly.
2835 - added tests for this
2838 - adding the link to Recipie 11 (written by Sartak)
2839 - adding test for SYNOPSIS code
2842 - New tests for builder bug. Upon instantiation, if an
2843 attribute had a builder, no value and was not lazy the
2844 builder default was not getting run, oops. (groditi)
2846 0.29 Tues. Nov. 13, 2007

2878 got mentioned on CPAN Forum & perlmonks
2881 - fixed how required methods are handled
2882 when they encounter overriden or modified
2883 methods from a class (thanks to confound).
2884 - added tests for this
2886 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraint
2887 - fixed the type notation parser so that
2888 the | always creates a union and so is
2889 no longer a valid type char (thanks to
2890 konobi, mugwump and #moose for working
2892 - added more tests for this
2894 0.26 Thurs. Sept. 27, 2007
2897 * Parameterized Types
2898 We now support parameterized collection types, such as:
2899 ArrayRef[Int] # array or integers
2900 HashRef[Object] # a hash with object values
2901 They can also be nested:
2902 ArrayRef[HashRef[RegexpRef]] # an array of hashes with regex values
2903 And work with the type unions as well:
2904 ArrayRef[Int | Str] # array of integers of strings
2906 * Better Framework Extendability
2907 Moose.pm is now "extendable" such that it is now much
2908 easier to extend the framework and add your own keywords
2909 and customizations. See the "EXTENDING AND EMBEDDING MOOSE"
2910 section of the Moose.pm docs.
2913 In an effort to begin documenting some of the various
2914 details of Moose as well as some common idioms, we have
2915 created Moose::Cookbook::Snacks as a place to find
2916 small (easily digestable) nuggets of Moose code.
2919 ~ Several doc updates/cleanup thanks to castaway ~
2921 - converted build system to use Module::Install instead of
2922 Module::Build (thanks to jrockway)
2925 - added all the meta classes to the immutable list and

2952 - fixed issue with generated accessor code making
2953 assumptions about hash based classes (thanks to dexter)
2955 * Moose::Coookbook::Snacks
2956 - these are bits of documentation, not quite as big as
2957 Recipes but which have no clear place in the module docs.
2958 So they are Snacks! (horray for castaway++)
2960 * Moose::Cookbook::Recipe4
2961 - updated it to use the new ArrayRef[MyType] construct
2962 - updated the accompanying test as well
2964 +++ Major Refactor of the Type Constraint system +++
2965 +++ with new features added as well +++
2967 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraint
2968 - no longer uses package variable to keep track of
2969 the type constraints, now uses the an instance of
2970 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Registry to do it
2971 - added more sophisticated type notation parsing
2973 - added tests for this
2975 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
2976 - some minor adjustments to make subclassing easier
2977 - added the package_defined_in attribute so that we
2978 can track where the type constraints are created

2981 - this is now been refactored to be a subclass of
2982 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
2984 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion::Union
2985 - this has been added to service the newly refactored
2986 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union and is itself
2987 a subclass of Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion

3001 (thanks to shlomif).
3003 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
3004 - required attributes now will no longer accept undef
3005 from the constructor, even if there is a default and lazy
3006 - added tests for this

3009 - added tests for this
3011 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
3012 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor

3043 - added tests for these
3045 0.24 Tues. July 3, 2007
3046 ~ Some doc updates/cleanup ~
3048 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
3049 - added support for roles to be given as parameters
3050 to the 'handles' option.
3051 - added tests and docs for this

3054 (but not changing the handles option)
3055 - added tests and docs for this
3058 - required methods are now fetched using find_method_by_name
3059 so that required methods can come from superclasses
3060 - adjusted tests for this

3063 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
3064 - fix inlined constructor for hierarchy with multiple BUILD methods (mst)

3070 the other side (perigrin)
3072 0.22 Thurs. May 31, 2007
3073 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
3074 - fix for prototype undeclared issue when Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
3075 loaded before consumers (e.g. Moose::Meta::Attribute) by predeclaring
3076 prototypes for functions
3077 - added the ClassName type constraint, this checks for strings
3078 which will respond true to ->isa(UNIVERSAL).

3088 - fix reader presedence bug in Moose::Meta::Attribute + tests
3091 - Foo->new(undef) now gets ignored, it is assumed you meant to pass
3092 a HASH-ref and missed. This produces better error messages then
3093 having it die cause undef is not a HASH.
3094 - added tests for this
3096 0.21 Thursday, May 2nd, 2007
3098 - added SUPER_SLOT and INNER_SLOT class hashes to support unimport

3114 * Moose::Meta::Class
3115 - fixed issue where extending metaclasses with
3116 roles would blow up. Thanks to Aankhen`` for
3117 finding this insidious error, and it's solution.
3119 ~~ lots of spelling and grammer fixes in the docs,
3120 many many thanks to rlb3 and Aankhen for these :)
3122 0.20 Friday, April 6th, 2007
3123 >> I messed up the SKIP logic in one test
3124 so this release is just to fix that.
3127 - 'has' now also accepts an ARRAY ref
3128 to create multiple attrs (see docs)
3129 (thanks to konobi for this)
3130 - added tests and docs
3132 0.19 Thurs. April 5th, 2007
3133 ~~ More documentation updates ~~
3135 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
3136 - 'type' now supports messages as well
3137 thanks to phaylon for finding this
3138 - added tests for this

3140 &list_all_builtin_type_constraints
3141 functions to facilitate introspection.
3143 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
3144 - fixed regexp 'handles' declarations
3145 to build the list of delegated methods
3146 correctly (and not override important
3147 things like &new) thanks to ashleyb
3149 - added tests and docs for this
3150 - added the 'documentation' attributes
3151 so that you can actually document your
3152 attributes and inspect them through the
3154 - added tests and docs for this
3156 * Moose::Meta::Class
3157 - when loading custom attribute metaclasses
3158 it will first look in for the class in the
3159 Moose::Meta::Attribute::Custom::$name, and
3160 then default to just loading $name.
3161 - added tests and docs for this
3163 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
3164 - type constraints now stringify to their names.
3165 - added test for this
3168 - added tests to assure we work with Module::Refresh
3169 - added stricter test skip logic in the Moose POOP
3170 test, ask Rob Kinyon why.
3171 - *cough* DBM::Deep 1.0 backwards compatibility sucks *cough* ;)
3173 0.18 Sat. March 10, 2007
3174 ~~ Many, many documentation updates ~~
3177 - We now use Class::MOP::load_class to
3179 - added tests to show types and subtypes
3180 working with Declare::Constraints::Simple
3181 and Test::Deep as constraint engines.
3184 !! You must have Class::MOP 0.37_001 !!
3185 !! for this developer release to work !!
3187 This release was primarily adding the immutable
3188 feature to Moose. An immutable class is one which
3189 you promise not to alter. When you set the class
3190 as immutable it will perform various bits of
3191 memoization and inline certain part of the code
3192 (constructors, destructors and accessors). This
3193 minimizes (and in some cases totally eliminates)
3194 one of Moose's biggest performance hits. This
3195 feature is not on by default, and is 100% optional.
3196 It has several configurable bits as well, so you
3197 can pick and choose to your specific needs.
3199 The changes involved in this were fairly wide and
3200 highly specific, but 100% backwards compatible, so
3201 I am not going to enumerate them here. If you are
3202 truely interested in what was changed, please do
3205 0.17 Tues. Nov. 14, 2006
3206 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
3207 - bugfix for read-only accessors which
3208 are have a type constraint and lazy.
3209 Thanks to chansen for finding it.
3211 0.16 Tues. Nov. 14, 2006
3213 There are some speed improvements in this release,
3214 but they are only the begining, so stay tuned.
3217 - BUILDALL and DEMOLISHALL no longer get
3218 called unless they actually need to be.
3219 This gave us a signifigant speed boost
3220 for the cases when there is no BUILD or
3221 DEMOLISH method present.
3223 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
3224 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
3225 - added an 'optimize_as' option to the
3226 type constraint, which allows for a
3227 hand optimized version of the type
3228 constraint to be used when possible.
3229 - Any internally created type constraints
3230 now provide an optimized version as well.
3232 0.15 Sun. Nov. 5, 2006
3234 This version of Moose *must* have Class::MOP 0.36 in order
3235 to work correctly. A number of small internal tweaks have
3236 been made in order to be compatible with that release.
3238 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
3239 - added &unimport so that you can clean out
3240 your class namespace of these exported
3243 * Moose::Meta::Class
3244 - fixed minor issue which occasionally
3245 comes up during global destruction
3247 - moved Moose::Meta::Method::Overriden into
3251 - moved Moose::Meta::Role::Method into
3254 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
3255 - changed how we do type checks so that
3256 we reduce the overall cost, but still
3259 - moved accessor generation methods to
3260 Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor to
3261 conform to the API changes from
3264 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
3265 - changed how constraints are compiled
3266 so that we do less recursion and more
3267 iteration. This makes the type check
3269 - moved Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
3272 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
3273 - created this from methods formerly found in
3274 Moose::Meta::Attribute
3276 * Moose::Meta::Role::Method
3277 - moved this from Moose::Meta::Role
3279 * Moose::Meta::Method::Overriden
3280 - moved this from Moose::Meta::Class
3282 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
3283 - moved this from Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
3285 0.14 Mon. Oct. 9, 2006
3287 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
3288 - fixed lazy attributes which were not getting
3289 checked with the type constraint (thanks ashley)
3290 - added tests for this
3291 - removed the over-enthusiastic DWIMery of the
3292 automatic ArrayRef and HashRef defaults, it
3293 broke predicates in an ugly way.
3294 - removed tests for this
3296 0.13 Sat. Sept. 30, 2006
3298 This version of Moose *must* have Class::MOP 0.35 in order
3299 to work correctly. A number of small internal tweaks have
3300 been made in order to be compatible with that release.
3303 - Removed the use of UNIVERSAL::require to be a better
3304 symbol table citizen and remove a dependency
3305 (thanks Adam Kennedy)
3307 **~~ removed experimental & undocumented feature ~~**
3308 - commented out the 'method' and 'self' keywords, see the
3309 comments for more info.
3312 - added a FAQ and WTF files to document frequently
3313 asked questions and common problems
3315 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
3316 - added GlobRef and FileHandle type constraint
3317 - added tests for this
3319 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
3320 - if your attribute 'isa' ArrayRef of HashRef, and you have
3321 not explicitly set a default, then make the default DWIM.
3322 This will also work for subtypes of ArrayRef and HashRef
3324 - you can now auto-deref subtypes of ArrayRef or HashRef too.
3325 - new test added for this (thanks to ashley)
3328 - added basic support for runtime role composition
3329 but this is still *highly experimental*, so feedback
3330 is much appreciated :)
3331 - added tests for this
3333 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
3334 - the type constraint now handles the coercion process
3335 through delegation, this is to support the coercion
3338 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
3339 - it is now possible for coercions to be performed
3341 - added tests for this (thanks to konobi)
3343 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
3344 - properly capturing error when type constraint
3348 - Scalar::Util 1.18 is bad on Win32, so temporarily
3349 only require version 1.17 for Win32 and cygwin.
3350 (thanks Adam Kennedy)
3352 0.12 Sat. Sept. 1, 2006
3354 - Recipe5 (subtypes & coercion) has been written
3357 - fixed "bad meta" error message to be more descriptive
3358 - fixed &unimport to not remove the &inner and &super
3359 keywords because we need to localize them.
3360 - fixed number of spelling/grammer issues, thanks Theory :)
3362 **~~ experimental & undocumented feature ~~**
3363 - added the method and self keywords, they are basically
3364 just sugar, and they may not stay around.
3367 - added &dump method to easily Data::Dumper
3370 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
3371 - added the &is_a_type_of method to check both the current
3372 and the subtype of a method (similar to &isa with classes)
3375 - this is now a subclass of Class::MOP::Module, and no longer
3376 creates the _role_meta ugliness of before.
3377 - fixed tests to reflect this change
3379 0.11 Wed. July 12, 2006
3381 - added an &unimport method to remove all the keywords
3382 that Moose will import, simply add 'no Moose' to the
3383 bottom of your class file.
3386 - fixed some test failures caused by a forgotten test
3389 0.10 Thurs. July 6, 2006
3391 - improved error message when loading modules so
3392 it is less confusing when you load a role.
3393 - added &calculate_all_roles method to
3394 Moose::Meta::Class and Moose::Meta::Role
3397 This module has been tested against Class::MOP 0.30
3398 but it does not yet utilize the optimizations
3399 it makes available. Stay tuned for that ;)
3401 0.09_03 Fri. June 23, 2006
3402 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
3404 - 'use strict' and 'use warnings' are no longer
3405 needed in Moose classes, Moose itself will
3406 turn them on for you.
3407 - added tests for this
3408 - moved code from exported subs to private methods
3409 in Moose::Meta::Class
3412 - as with Moose, strict and warnings are
3413 automatically turned on for you.
3414 - added tests for this
3417 - now handles an edge case for override errors
3418 - added tests for this
3419 - added some more edge case tests

3431 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
3432 - cleaned up prototypes for the subs
3435 0.09_01 Fri. May 12, 2006
3436 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
3437 - This release works in combination with
3438 Class::MOP 0.29_01, it is a developer
3439 release because it uses the a new
3440 instance sub-protocol and a fairly
3441 complete Role implementation. It has
3442 not yet been optimized, so it slower
3443 the the previous CPAN version. This
3444 release also lacks good updated docs,
3445 the official release will have updated docs.
