Revision history for Perl extension Moose 0.06 * Moose - refactored the keyword exports - 'with' now checks Role validaity and accepts more than one Role at a time - 'extends' makes metaclass adjustments as needed to ensure metaclass compatability * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints - added the 'enum' keyword for simple string enumerations which can be used as type constraints - see example of usage in t/202_example.t * Moose::Object - more careful checking of params to new() * Moose::Meta::Instance - added new Instance metaclass to support the new Class::MOP instance protocol * Moose::Meta::Class - some small changes to support the new instance protocol * Moose::Meta::Attribute - some improvements to the accessor generation code by nothingmuch - some small changes to support the new instance protocol - (still somewhat) experimental delegation support with the 'handles' option - added several tests for this - no docs for this yet 0.05 Thurs. April 27, 2006 * Moose - keywords are now exported with Sub::Exporter thanks to chansen for this commit - has keyword now takes a 'metaclass' option to support custom attribute meta-classes on a per-attribute basis - added tests for this - the 'has' keyword not accepts inherited slot specifications (has '+foo'). This is still an experimental feature and probably not finished see t/038_attribute_inherited_slot_specs.t for more details, or ask about it on #moose - added tests for this * Moose::Role - keywords are now exported with Sub::Exporter * Moose::Utils::TypeConstraints - reorganized the type constraint hierarchy, thanks to nothingmuch and chansen for his help and advice on this - added some tests for this - keywords are now exported with Sub::Exporter thanks to chansen for this commit * Moose::Meta::Class - due to changes in Class::MOP, we had to change construct_instance (for the better) * Moose::Meta::Attribute - due to changes in Class::MOP, we had to add the initialize_instance_slot method (it's a good thing) * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint - added type constraint unions - added tests for this - added the is_subtype_of predicate method - added tests for this 0.04 Sun. April 16th, 2006 * Moose::Role - Roles can now consume other roles - added tests for this - Roles can specify required methods now with the requires() keyword - added tests for this * Moose::Meta::Role - ripped out much of it's guts ,.. much cleaner now - added required methods and correct handling of them in apply() for both classes and roles - added tests for this - no longer adds a does() method to consuming classes it relys on the one in Moose::Object - added roles attribute and some methods to support roles consuming roles * Moose::Meta::Attribute - added support for triggers on attributes - added tests for this - added support for does option on an attribute - added tests for this * Moose::Meta::Class - added support for attribute triggers in the object construction - added tests for this * Moose - Moose no longer creates a subtype for your class if a subtype of the same name already exists, this should DWIM in 99.9999% of all cases * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints - fixed bug where incorrect subtype conflicts were being reported - added test for this * Moose::Object - this class can now be extended with 'use base' if you need it, it properly loads the metaclass class now - added test for this 0.03_02 Wed. April 12, 2006 * Moose - you must now explictly use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints it no longer gets exported for you automatically * Moose::Object - new() now accepts hash-refs as well as key/value lists - added does() method to check for Roles - added tests for this * Moose::Meta::Class - added roles attribute along with the add_role() and does_role() methods - added tests for this * Moose::Meta::Role - now adds a does() method to consuming classes which tests the class's hierarchy for roles - added tests for this 0.03_01 Mon. April 10, 2006 * Moose::Cookbook - added new Role recipe (no content yet, only code) * Moose - added 'with' keyword for Role support - added test and docs for this - fixed subtype quoting bug - added test for this * Moose::Role - Roles for Moose - added test and docs * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints - added the message keyword to add custom error messages to type constraints * Moose::Meta::Role - the meta role to support Moose::Role - added tests and docs * Moose::Meta::Class - moved a number of things from Moose.pm to here, they should have been here in the first place * Moose::Meta::Attribute - moved the attribute option macros here instead of putting them in Moose.pm * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint - added the message attributes and the validate method - added tests and docs for this 0.03 Thurs. March 30, 2006 * Moose::Cookbook - added the Moose::Cookbook with 5 recipes, describing all the stuff Moose can do. * Moose - fixed an issue with &extends super class loading it now captures errors and deals with inline packages correctly (bug found by mst, solution stolen from alias) - added super/override & inner/augment features - added tests and docs for these * Moose::Object - BUILDALL now takes a reference of the %params that are passed to &new, and passes that to each BUILD as well. * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints - Type constraints now survive runtime reloading - added test for this * Moose::Meta::Class - fixed the way attribute defaults are handled during instance construction (bug found by chansen) * Moose::Meta::Attribute - read-only attributes now actually enforce their read-only-ness (this corrected in Class::MOP as well) 0.02 Tues. March 21, 2006 * Moose - many more tests, fixing some bugs and edge cases - &extends now loads the base module with UNIVERSAL::require - added UNIVERSAL::require to the dependencies list ** API CHANGES ** - each new Moose class will also create and register a subtype of Object which correspond to the new Moose class. - the 'isa' option in &has now only accepts strings, and will DWIM in almost all cases * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints - added type coercion features - added tests for this - added support for this in attributes and instance construction ** API CHANGES ** - type construction no longer creates a function, it registers the type instead. - added several functions to get the registered types * Moose::Object - BUILDALL and DEMOLISHALL were broken because of a mis-named hash key, Whoops :) * Moose::Meta::Attribute - adding support for coercion in the autogenerated accessors * Moose::Meta::Class - adding support for coercion in the instance construction * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion - type constraints and coercions are now full fledges meta-objects 0.01 Wed. March 15, 2006 - Moooooooooooooooooose!!!
