1 Revision history for Perl extension Moose
4 * Moose::Util::MetaRole
5 - This simplifies the application of roles to any meta class, as
6 well as the base object class. Reimplemented metaclass traits
7 using this module. (Dave Rolsky)
9 0.55_02 Fri August 29, 2008
10 * Makefile.PL and Moose.pm
11 - explicitly require Perl 5.8.0+ (Dave Rolsky)
13 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
14 - Fix warnings from find_type_constraint if the type is not
17 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
18 - Predicate methods (equals/is_a_type_of/is_subtype_of) now
19 return false if the type you specify cannot be found in the
20 type registry, rather than throwing an unhelpful and
21 coincidental exception. (t0m).
22 - added docs & test for this (t0m)
24 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Registry
25 - add_type_constraint now throws an exception if a parameter is
27 - added docs & test for this (t0m)
29 * Moose::Cookbook::FAQ
30 - Added a faq entry on the difference between "role" and "trait"
34 - Fixed a bug that caused role composition to not see a required
35 method when that method was provided by another role being
36 composed at the same time. (Dave Rolsky)
37 - test and bug finding (tokuhirom)
39 0.55_01 Wed August 20, 2008
41 !! Calling Moose::init_meta as a function is now !!
42 !! deprecated. Please see the Moose.pm docs for details. !!
44 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
45 - Fix inlined constructor so that values produced by default
46 or builder methods are coerced as required. (t0m)
47 - added test for this (t0m)
49 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
50 - A lazy attribute with a default or builder did not attempt to
51 coerce the default value. The immutable code _did_
53 - added test for this (t0m)
56 - This is a new helper module for writing "Moose-alike"
57 modules. This should make the lives of MooseX module authors
58 much easier. (Dave Rolsky)
61 * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe5
62 - Implemented metaclass traits (and wrote a recipe for it):
64 use Moose -traits => 'Foo'
66 This should make writing small Moose extensions a little
69 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe1
70 - Removed any examples of direct hashref access, and applied an
71 editorial axe to reduce verbosity. (Dave Rolsky)
73 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe1
74 - Also applied an editorial axe here. (Dave Rolsky)
77 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
78 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
79 - Rewrote extending and embedding moose documentation and
80 recipes to use Moose::Exporter (Dave Rolsky)
84 - These two modules now warn when you load them from the main
85 package "main" package, because we will not export sugar to
86 main. Previously it just did nothing. (Dave Rolsky)
89 - Now provide an init_meta method just like Moose.pm, and you
90 can call this to provide an alternate role metaclass. (Dave
91 Rolsky and nothingmuch)
92 - get_method_map now respects the package cache flag (nothingmuch)
95 - Two new methods - add_method and wrap_method_body
99 - Optimizations including allowing constructors to accept hash
100 refs, making many more classes immutable, and making
101 constructors immutable. (nothingmuch)
103 0.55 Sun August 3, 2008

111 the type constraints (RT #37569)
112 - added tests for this (Charles Alderman)
114 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints

118 - reorganized the recipes into sections - Basics, Roles, Meta,
119 Extending - and wrote abstracts for each section (Dave Rolsky)
121 * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe10
122 - A new recipe that demonstrates operator overloading
123 in combination with Moose. (bluefeet)
125 * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe1
126 - an introduction to what meta is and why you'd want to make
127 your own metaclass extensions (Dave Rolsky)
129 * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe4
130 - a very simple metaclass example (Dave Rolsky)
132 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
133 - how to write a Moose-alike module to use your own object base
136 * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
137 - how to write modules with an API just like C<Moose.pm> (Dave
141 - Tons of fixes, both syntactical and grammatical (Dave
142 Rolsky, Paul Fenwick)
144 0.54 Thurs. July 3, 2008
145 ... this is not my day today ...
147 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
148 - fixed legal_options_for_inheritance such that
149 clone_and_inherit options still works for
150 Class::MOP::Attribute objects and therefore
151 does not break MooseX::AttributeHelpers
154 0.53 Thurs. July 3, 2008
155 * Whoops, I guess I should run 'make manifest' before
156 actually releasing the module. No actual changes
157 in this release, except the fact that it includes
158 the changes that I didn't include in the last
161 0.52 Thurs. July 3, 2008
163 - added "FEATURE REQUESTS" section to the Moose docs
164 to properly direct people (stevan) (RT #34333)
165 - making 'extends' croak if it is passed a Role since
166 this is not ever something you want to do
167 (fixed by stevan, found by obra)
168 - added tests for this (stevan)
171 - adding support for DOES (as in UNIVERSAL::DOES)

196 * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToRole
197 - when RoleA did RoleB, and RoleA aliased a method from RoleB in
198 order to provide its own implementation, that method still got
199 added to the list of required methods for consumers of
200 RoleB. Now an aliased method is only added to the list of
201 required methods if the role doing the aliasing does not
202 provide its own implementation. See Recipe 11 for an example
203 of all this. (Dave Rolsky)
204 - added tests for this
206 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
207 - when a single argument that wasn't a hashref was provided to
208 an immutabilized constructor, the error message was very

285 - fixing the version is META.yml, no functional
286 changes in this release

289 !! This version now approx. 20-25% !!
290 !! faster with new Class::MOP 0.57 !!

390 show where the error is (thanks mst)
393 - BUILDALL and DEMOLISHALL now call
394 ->body when looping through the
395 methods, to avoid the overloaded

764 be used as a container (sartak)
765 - added tests for this
766 - basic support for coercion to ArrayRef and
767 HashRef for containers (sartak)
768 - added tests for this
770 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
771 - coercions will now create subtypes as needed
772 so you can now add coercions to parameterized
773 types without having to explictly define them
774 - added tests for this
776 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
777 - allow subclasses to decide whether we need
778 to copy the value into a new variable (sartak)
780 0.32 Tues. Dec. 4, 2007
781 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
782 - fixing how subtype aliases of unions work
783 they should inherit the parent's coercion
784 - added tests for this
785 - you can now define multiple coercions on
786 a single type at different times instead of
787 having to do it all in one place
788 - added tests for this
790 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
791 - there is now a default constraint of sub { 1 }
792 instead of Moose::Util::TypeConstraints setting
795 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
796 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion::Union
797 - added the &has_coercion_for_type and
798 &add_type_coercions methods to support the
799 new features above (although you cannot add
800 more type coercions for Union types)
802 0.31 Mon. Nov. 26, 2007
803 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
804 - made the +attr syntax handle extending types with
805 parameters. So "has '+foo' => (isa => 'ArrayRef[Int]')"
806 now works if the original foo is an ArrayRef.
807 - added tests for this.
808 - delegation now works even if the attribute does not
809 have a reader method using the get_read_method_ref
810 method from Class::MOP::Attribute.
811 - added tests for this
812 - added docs for this
814 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
815 - passing no "additional attribute info" to
816 &find_or_create_type_constraint will no longer
817 attempt to create an __ANON__ type for you,
818 instead it will just return undef.
819 - added docs for this
821 0.30 Fri. Nov. 23, 2007
822 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
823 -builder related bug in inlined constructor. (groditi)
825 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
826 - genereate unnecessary calls to predicates and refactor
827 code generation for runtime speed (groditi)
829 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints

831 - added more tests for this (mst)
832 - fixed it so that subtype 'Foo' => as 'HashRef[Int]' ...
834 - added tests for this
837 - adding the link to Recipie 11 (written by Sartak)
838 - adding test for SYNOPSIS code
841 - New tests for builder bug. Upon instantiation, if an
842 attribute had a builder, no value and was not lazy the
843 builder default was not getting run, oops. (groditi)
845 0.29 Tues. Nov. 13, 2007
846 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
847 - Fix error message on missing builder method (groditi)
849 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor

853 - Add test to check for the correct error message when
854 builder method is missing (groditi)
856 0.28 Tues. Nov. 13, 2007
857 - 0.27 packaged incorrectly (groditi)

874 - tests for builder and lazy_build (groditi)
876 * fixing some misc. bits in the docs that
877 got mentioned on CPAN Forum & perlmonks
880 - fixed how required methods are handled
881 when they encounter overriden or modified
882 methods from a class (thanks to confound).
883 - added tests for this
885 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraint
886 - fixed the type notation parser so that
887 the | always creates a union and so is
888 no longer a valid type char (thanks to
889 konobi, mugwump and #moose for working
891 - added more tests for this
893 0.26 Thurs. Sept. 27, 2007
896 * Parameterized Types
897 We now support parameterized collection types, such as:
898 ArrayRef[Int] # array or integers
899 HashRef[Object] # a hash with object values
900 They can also be nested:
901 ArrayRef[HashRef[RegExpr]] # an array of hashes with regexpr values
902 And work with the type unions as well:
903 ArrayRef[Int | Str] # array of integers of strings
905 * Better Framework Extendability
906 Moose.pm is now "extendable" such that it is now much
907 easier to extend the framework and add your own keywords
908 and customizations. See the "EXTENDING AND EMBEDDING MOOSE"
909 section of the Moose.pm docs.
912 In an effort to begin documenting some of the various
913 details of Moose as well as some common idioms, we have
914 created Moose::Cookbook::Snacks as a place to find
915 small (easily digestable) nuggets of Moose code.
918 ~ Several doc updates/cleanup thanks to castaway ~
920 - converted build system to use Module::Install instead of
921 Module::Build (thanks to jrockway)
924 - added all the meta classes to the immutable list and
925 set it to inline the accessors

952 assumptions about hash based classes (thanks to dexter)
954 * Moose::Coookbook::Snacks
955 - these are bits of documentation, not quite as big as
956 Recipes but which have no clear place in the module docs.
957 So they are Snacks! (horray for castaway++)
959 * Moose::Cookbook::Recipe4
960 - updated it to use the new ArrayRef[MyType] construct
961 - updated the accompanying test as well
963 +++ Major Refactor of the Type Constraint system +++
964 +++ with new features added as well +++
966 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraint
967 - no longer uses package variable to keep track of
968 the type constraints, now uses the an instance of
969 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Registry to do it
970 - added more sophisticated type notation parsing
972 - added tests for this
974 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
975 - some minor adjustments to make subclassing easier
976 - added the package_defined_in attribute so that we
977 can track where the type constraints are created
979 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
980 - this is now been refactored to be a subclass of
981 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
983 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion::Union
984 - this has been added to service the newly refactored
985 Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union and is itself
986 a subclass of Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion

1000 (thanks to shlomif).
1002 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1003 - required attributes now will no longer accept undef
1004 from the constructor, even if there is a default and lazy
1005 - added tests for this

1008 - added tests for this
1010 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1011 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1012 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1013 - type-constraint tests now handle overloaded objects correctly
1014 in the error message
1015 - added tests for this (thanks to EvanCarroll)
1017 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union

1047 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1048 - added support for roles to be given as parameters
1049 to the 'handles' option.
1050 - added tests and docs for this

1053 (but not changing the handles option)
1054 - added tests and docs for this
1057 - required methods are now fetched using find_method_by_name
1058 so that required methods can come from superclasses
1059 - adjusted tests for this
1061 0.23 Mon. June 18, 2007
1062 * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
1063 - fix inlined constructor for hierarchy with multiple BUILD methods (mst)

1069 the other side (perigrin)
1071 0.22 Thurs. May 31, 2007
1072 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1073 - fix for prototype undeclared issue when Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1074 loaded before consumers (e.g. Moose::Meta::Attribute) by predeclaring
1075 prototypes for functions
1076 - added the ClassName type constraint, this checks for strings
1077 which will respond true to ->isa(UNIVERSAL).

1085 merlyn for finding this bug
1086 - tests added for this
1087 - fix reader presedence bug in Moose::Meta::Attribute + tests
1090 - Foo->new(undef) now gets ignored, it is assumed you meant to pass
1091 a HASH-ref and missed. This produces better error messages then
1092 having it die cause undef is not a HASH.
1093 - added tests for this
1095 0.21 Thursday, May 2nd, 2007
1097 - added SUPER_SLOT and INNER_SLOT class hashes to support unimport
1098 - modified unimport to remove super and inner along with the rest

1113 * Moose::Meta::Class
1114 - fixed issue where extending metaclasses with
1115 roles would blow up. Thanks to Aankhen`` for
1116 finding this insidious error, and it's solution.
1118 ~~ lots of spelling and grammer fixes in the docs,
1119 many many thanks to rlb3 and Aankhen for these :)
1121 0.20 Friday, April 6th, 2007
1122 >> I messed up the SKIP logic in one test
1123 so this release is just to fix that.
1126 - 'has' now also accepts an ARRAY ref
1127 to create multiple attrs (see docs)
1128 (thanks to konobi for this)
1129 - added tests and docs
1131 0.19 Thurs. April 5th, 2007
1132 ~~ More documentation updates ~~
1134 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1135 - 'type' now supports messages as well
1136 thanks to phaylon for finding this
1137 - added tests for this
1138 - added &list_all_type_constraints and
1139 &list_all_builtin_type_constraints
1140 functions to facilitate introspection.
1142 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1143 - fixed regexp 'handles' declarations
1144 to build the list of delegated methods
1145 correctly (and not override important
1146 things like &new) thanks to ashleyb
1148 - added tests and docs for this
1149 - added the 'documentation' attributes
1150 so that you can actually document your
1151 attributes and inspect them through the
1153 - added tests and docs for this
1155 * Moose::Meta::Class
1156 - when loading custom attribute metaclasses
1157 it will first look in for the class in the
1158 Moose::Meta::Attribute::Custom::$name, and
1159 then default to just loading $name.
1160 - added tests and docs for this
1162 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1163 - type constraints now stringify to their names.
1164 - added test for this
1167 - added tests to assure we work with Module::Refresh
1168 - added stricter test skip logic in the Moose POOP
1169 test, ask Rob Kinyon why.
1170 - *cough* DBM::Deep 1.0 backwards compatability sucks *cough* ;)
1172 0.18 Sat. March 10, 2007
1173 ~~ Many, many documentation updates ~~
1176 - We now use Class::MOP::load_class to
1178 - added tests to show types and subtypes
1179 working with Declare::Constraints::Simple
1180 and Test::Deep as constraint engines.
1183 !! You must have Class::MOP 0.37_001 !!
1184 !! for this developer release to work !!
1186 This release was primarily adding the immutable
1187 feature to Moose. An immutable class is one which
1188 you promise not to alter. When you set the class
1189 as immutable it will perform various bits of
1190 memoization and inline certain part of the code
1191 (constructors, destructors and accessors). This
1192 minimizes (and in some cases totally eliminates)
1193 one of Moose's biggest performance hits. This
1194 feature is not on by default, and is 100% optional.
1195 It has several configurable bits as well, so you
1196 can pick and choose to your specific needs.
1198 The changes involved in this were fairly wide and
1199 highly specific, but 100% backwards compatible, so
1200 I am not going to enumerate them here. If you are
1201 truely interested in what was changed, please do
1204 0.17 Tues. Nov. 14, 2006
1205 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1206 - bugfix for read-only accessors which
1207 are have a type constraint and lazy.
1208 Thanks to chansen for finding it.
1210 0.16 Tues. Nov. 14, 2006
1212 There are some speed improvements in this release,
1213 but they are only the begining, so stay tuned.
1216 - BUILDALL and DEMOLISHALL no longer get
1217 called unless they actually need to be.
1218 This gave us a signifigant speed boost
1219 for the cases when there is no BUILD or
1220 DEMOLISH method present.
1222 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1223 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1224 - added an 'optimize_as' option to the
1225 type constraint, which allows for a
1226 hand optimized version of the type
1227 constraint to be used when possible.
1228 - Any internally created type constraints
1229 now provide an optimized version as well.
1231 0.15 Sun. Nov. 5, 2006
1233 This version of Moose *must* have Class::MOP 0.36 in order
1234 to work correctly. A number of small internal tweaks have
1235 been made in order to be compatible with that release.
1237 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1238 - added &unimport so that you can clean out
1239 your class namespace of these exported
1242 * Moose::Meta::Class
1243 - fixed minor issue which occasionally
1244 comes up during global destruction
1246 - moved Moose::Meta::Method::Overriden into
1250 - moved Moose::Meta::Role::Method into
1253 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1254 - changed how we do type checks so that
1255 we reduce the overall cost, but still
1258 - moved accessor generation methods to
1259 Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor to
1260 conform to the API changes from
1263 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1264 - changed how constraints are compiled
1265 so that we do less recursion and more
1266 iteration. This makes the type check
1268 - moved Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
1271 * Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
1272 - created this from methods formerly found in
1273 Moose::Meta::Attribute
1275 * Moose::Meta::Role::Method
1276 - moved this from Moose::Meta::Role
1278 * Moose::Meta::Method::Overriden
1279 - moved this from Moose::Meta::Class
1281 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
1282 - moved this from Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1284 0.14 Mon. Oct. 9, 2006
1286 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1287 - fixed lazy attributes which were not getting
1288 checked with the type constraint (thanks ashley)
1289 - added tests for this
1290 - removed the over-enthusiastic DWIMery of the
1291 automatic ArrayRef and HashRef defaults, it
1292 broke predicates in an ugly way.
1293 - removed tests for this
1295 0.13 Sat. Sept. 30, 2006
1297 This version of Moose *must* have Class::MOP 0.35 in order
1298 to work correctly. A number of small internal tweaks have
1299 been made in order to be compatible with that release.
1302 - Removed the use of UNIVERSAL::require to be a better
1303 symbol table citizen and remove a dependency
1304 (thanks Adam Kennedy)
1306 **~~ removed experimental & undocumented feature ~~**
1307 - commented out the 'method' and 'self' keywords, see the
1308 comments for more info.
1311 - added a FAQ and WTF files to document frequently
1312 asked questions and common problems
1314 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1315 - added GlobRef and FileHandle type constraint
1316 - added tests for this
1318 * Moose::Meta::Attribute
1319 - if your attribute 'isa' ArrayRef of HashRef, and you have
1320 not explicitly set a default, then make the default DWIM.
1321 This will also work for subtypes of ArrayRef and HashRef
1323 - you can now auto-deref subtypes of ArrayRef or HashRef too.
1324 - new test added for this (thanks to ashley)
1327 - added basic support for runtime role composition
1328 but this is still *highly experimental*, so feedback
1329 is much appreciated :)
1330 - added tests for this
1332 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1333 - the type constraint now handles the coercion process
1334 through delegation, this is to support the coercion
1337 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union
1338 - it is now possible for coercions to be performed
1340 - added tests for this (thanks to konobi)
1342 * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
1343 - properly capturing error when type constraint
1347 - Scalar::Util 1.18 is bad on Win32, so temporarily
1348 only require version 1.17 for Win32 and cygwin.
1349 (thanks Adam Kennedy)
1351 0.12 Sat. Sept. 1, 2006
1353 - Recipe5 (subtypes & coercion) has been written
1356 - fixed "bad meta" error message to be more descriptive
1357 - fixed &unimport to not remove the &inner and &super
1358 keywords because we need to localize them.
1359 - fixed number of spelling/grammer issues, thanks Theory :)
1361 **~~ experimental & undocumented feature ~~**
1362 - added the method and self keywords, they are basically
1363 just sugar, and they may not stay around.
1366 - added &dump method to easily Data::Dumper
1369 * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
1370 - added the &is_a_type_of method to check both the current
1371 and the subtype of a method (similar to &isa with classes)
1374 - this is now a subclass of Class::MOP::Module, and no longer
1375 creates the _role_meta ugliness of before.
1376 - fixed tests to reflect this change
1378 0.11 Wed. July 12, 2006
1380 - added an &unimport method to remove all the keywords
1381 that Moose will import, simply add 'no Moose' to the
1382 bottom of your class file.
1385 - fixed some test failures caused by a forgotten test
1388 0.10 Thurs. July 6, 2006
1390 - improved error message when loading modules so
1391 it is less confusing when you load a role.
1392 - added &calculate_all_roles method to
1393 Moose::Meta::Class and Moose::Meta::Role
1396 This module has been tested against Class::MOP 0.30
1397 but it does not yet utilize the optimizations
1398 it makes available. Stay tuned for that ;)
1400 0.09_03 Fri. June 23, 2006
1401 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
1403 - 'use strict' and 'use warnings' are no longer
1404 needed in Moose classes, Moose itself will
1405 turn them on for you.
1406 - added tests for this
1407 - moved code from exported subs to private methods
1408 in Moose::Meta::Class
1411 - as with Moose, strict and warnings are
1412 automatically turned on for you.
1413 - added tests for this
1416 - now handles an edge case for override errors
1417 - added tests for this
1418 - added some more edge case tests
1420 0.09_02 Tues. May 16, 2006
1421 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
1423 - added prototypes to the exported subs
1427 - added prototypes to the exported subs
1430 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1431 - cleaned up prototypes for the subs
1434 0.09_01 Fri. May 12, 2006
1435 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
1436 - This release works in combination with
1437 Class::MOP 0.29_01, it is a developer
1438 release because it uses the a new
1439 instance sub-protocol and a fairly
1440 complete Role implementation. It has
1441 not yet been optimized, so it slower
1442 the the previous CPAN version. This
1443 release also lacks good updated docs,
1444 the official release will have updated docs.
1447 - refactored the keyword exports
1448 - 'with' now checks Role validaity and
1449 accepts more than one Role at a time
1450 - 'extends' makes metaclass adjustments as
1451 needed to ensure metaclass compatability
1454 - refactored the keyword exports
1455 - 'with' now checks Role validaity and
1456 accepts more than one Role at a time
1458 * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
1459 - added the 'enum' keyword for simple
1460 string enumerations which can be used as
1462 - see example of usage in t/202_example.t
1465 - more careful checking of params to new()
1468 - much work done on the role composition
1469 - many new tests for conflict detection
1470 and composition edge cases
1471 - not enough documentation, I suggest
1472 looking at the tests
1474 * Moose::Meta::Instance
1475 - added new Instance metaclass to support

1495 - keywords are now exported with Sub::Exporter
1496 thanks to chansen for this commit
1497 - has keyword now takes a 'metaclass' option
1498 to support custom attribute meta-classes

1502 specifications (has '+foo'). This is still an
1503 experimental feature and probably not finished
