Revision history for Perl extension Class-MOP.
+0.89
+ * Class::MOP::Instance
+ - add inline version of rebless_instance_structure. (doy)
+ - change inline_slot_access to use single quotes (gphat)
+
+0.88 Tue, Jun 23, 2009
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - Moved the __INSTANCE__ parameter to _construct_instance from
+ Moose to here. (doy)
+ - Fixed some issues involving metaclasses of metaclasses and
+ immutability. (doy)
+
+0.87 Sun, Jun 21, 2009
+ * Various
+ - Made sure to always local-ize $@ and $SIG{__DIE__} before
+ calling an eval. Fixes RT #45973.
+
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - Synced docs about immutability with the current reality (which
+ changed back in 0.82_01)
+ - Removed the immutable_transformer method, which had been
+ returning undef since 0.82_01 anyway.
+
+ * Tests
+ - Got rid of tests which needed Moose and improved testing of
+ constructor/destructor inlining warnings. Fixes RT #47119.
+
+0.86 Tue, Jun 16, 2009
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - If you redefined a subroutine at runtime and then wrapped it
+ with a method modifier, the modifier could in some cases wrap
+ the original version of the subroutine. Fixes RT #46957.
+
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - make_immutable issues a warning instead of overriding an
+ existing DESTROY method (Dylan William Hardison). Fixes RT
+ #46854.
+
+0.85 Sat, Jun 6, 2009
+ * Class::MOP::Attribute
+ - Allow default values to be Class::MOP::Methods. (Florian
+ Ragwitz)
+ - Test the above. (Rhesa Rozendaal)
+ - Tweak original commit so the intent matches the accepted
+ behavior (Nicholas Perez)
+
+ * Class::MOP
+ - Localize $SIG{__DIE__} inside _try_load_one_class (Sartak)
+
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - Add direct_subclasses method (Sartak)
+ - Tests for subclasses and direct_subclasses (Sartak)
+ - subname is no longer used unconditionally in add_method, but
+ only if the code reference's name is '__ANON__' (nothingmuch)
+ - Add a hook for _superclasses_updated (Sartak)
+
+ * Class::MOP::Method
+ - Remove long, old warning about possibly outdated modules
+ (Sartak)
+
+0.84 Tue, May 12, 2009
+ * Makefile.PL
+ - Depend on Text::Exception 0.27 to avoid failing tests ond old
+ versions (rafl)
+
+ * Class::MOP
+ - Made is_class_loaded a little stricter. It was reporting that
+ a class was loaded if it merely had an @ISA variable in its
+ stash. Now it checks that the @ISA var has elements in it.
+ - Deprecate in_global_destruction and subname re-exporting
+ (perigrin & Sartak)
+
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - Explicitly use Devel::GlobalDestruction and Sub::Name
+ (perigrin)
+
+ * Class::MOP::Package
+ - Disable prototype mismatch warnings for add_package_symbol.
+ (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+0.83 Mon, April 27, 2009
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - Fix segfault when calling get_method_map on a metaclass for an empty
+ package (doy)
+
+0.82_02 Fri, April 24, 2009
+ * Class::MOP::Method::Inlined
+ - Don't inline if the expected method is not defined at all (happens with
+ e.g. Moose::Object::_new is the expected method due to an overridden
+ name)
+ * Tests
+ - Some tests were trying to load Class::MOP::Immutable, which
+ was removed in 0.82_01.
+
+0.82_01 Thu, April 23, 2009
+ * Class::MOP::Immutable (and others)
+ - Refactor the immutability system to use a pre-defined class
+ for the immutable metaclass of Class::MOP::Class::Immutable::$class
+ - Rather than generating methods into this class every time, use
+ a Trait (basic mixin) to supply the cached methods
+ - Remove the hack that returns the mutable metaclass for
+ metacircularity in order to provide consistent meta-metaclasses
+ for the Moose compatibility handling code
+ (mst broke it, nothingmuch fixed it)
+
+0.82 Mon, April 20, 2009
+ * Various
+ - The deprecation wrappers for some renamed methods were not
+ passing arguments to the new method. (nothingmuch)
+
+ * Class::MOP::Immutable
+ - Warn during immutablization if the local class provides its own
+ constructor, to parallel the warning in Moose when a superclass
+ provides its own constructor (doy)
+
+0.81 Tue, April 7, 2009
+ * Class::MOP
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ * Class::MOP::Instance
+ * Class::MOP::Attribute
+ * Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
+ * Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
+ - Include stack traces in the deprecation warnings introduced in
+ 0.80_01. (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+ * MOP.xs
+ - Avoid c compiler warnings by declaring some unused function
+ arguments. (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+0.80_01 Sun, April 5, 2009
+ * Makefile.PL
+ - Make sure to preserve any compiler flags already defined in
+ Config.pm. Patch by Vincent Pit. RT #44739.
+
+ * Many methods have been renamed with a leading underscore, and a
+ few have been deprecated entirely. The methods with a leading
+ underscore are consider "internals only". People writing
+ subclasses or extensions to Class::MOP should feel free to
+ override them, but they are not for "public" use.
+
+ - Class::MOP::Class
+ - construct_class_instance => _construct_class_instance (use new_object)
+ - construct_instance => _construct_instance (use new_object)
+ - check_metaclass_compatibility => _check_metaclass_compatibility
+ - create_meta_instance => _create_meta_instance (use get_meta_instance)
+ - clone_instance => _clone_instance (use clone_object)
+ - compute_all_applicable_methods is deprecated, use get_all_methods
+ - compute_all_applicable_attributes is deprecated, use get_all_attributes
+
+ - Class::MOP::Instance
+ - bless_instance_structure is deprecated and will be removed
+ in a future release
+
+ - Class::MOP::Module
+ - create has been renamed to _instantiate_module. This method
+ does not construct an object, it evals some code that
+ creates the relevant package in Perl's symbol table.
+
+ - Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
+ - initialize_body => _initialize_body (this is always called
+ when an object is constructed)
+ - /(generate_.*_method(?:_inline)?)/ => '_' . $1
+
+ - Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
+ - initialize_body => _initialize_body (this is always called
+ when an object is constructed)
+ - /(generate_constructor_method(?:_inline)?)/ => '_' . $1
+ - attributes => _attributes
+ - meta_instance => _meta_instance
+
+0.80 Wed, April 1, 2009
+ * Class::MOP::*
+ - Call user_class->meta in fewer places, with the eventual goal
+ of allowing the user to rename or exclude ->meta
+ altogether. Instead uses Class::MOP::class_of. (Sartak)
+
+ * Class::MOP
+ - New class_of function that should be used to retrieve a
+ metaclass. This is unlike get_metaclass_by_name in that it
+ accepts instances, not just class names. (Sartak)
+
+ * Class::MOP
+ - load_first_existing_class didn't actually load the first
+ existing class; instead, it loaded the first existing and
+ compiling class. It now throws an error if a class exists (in
+ @INC) but fails to compile. (hdp)
+
+ * Class::MOP
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - we had some semi-buggy code that purported to provide a
+ HAS_ISAREV based on whether mro had get_isarev (due to an
+ oversight, it always returned 1). Since mro and MRO::Compat
+ have always had get_isarev, HAS_ISAREV was pointless. This
+ insight simplified the subclasses method by deleting the
+ pure-perl fallback. HAS_ISAREV is now deprecated. (Sartak)
+
+0.79 Fri, March 29, 2009
+ * No changes from 0.78_02.
+
+0.78_02 Thu, March 26, 2009
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ * Class::MOP::Immutable
+ - A big backwards-incompatible refactoring of the Immutable API,
+ and the make_immutable/make_mutable pieces of the Class
+ API. The core __PACKAGE__->meta->make_immutable API remains
+ the same, however, so this should only affect the most
+ guts-digging code.
+
+ * XS code
+ - The XS code used a macro, XSPROTO, that's only in 5.10.x. This
+ has been fixed to be backwards compatible with 5.8.x.
+
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - Add a hook for rebless_instance_away (Sartak)
+ - Use blessed instead of ref to get an instance's class name
+ in rebless_instance. (Sartak)
+
+0.78_01 Wed, March 18, 2009
+ * Class::MOP::*
+ - Revised and reorganized all of the API documentation. All
+ classes now have (more or less) complete API documentation.
+
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ * Class::MOP::Instance
+ - Reblessing into a package that supports overloading wasn't
+ properly adding overload magic to the object due to a bug
+ in (at least) 5.8.8. We now use $_[1] directly which seems
+ to set the magic properly. (Sartak)
+
+ * Class::MOP::Attribute
+ - The process_accessors method is now private. A public alias
+ exists (and will stick around for a few releases), but it
+ warns that calling the public method is deprecated.
+
+ * Class::MOP::Method::Generated
+ - Removed the new and _new methods, since this is an abstract
+ base class, and all existing subclasses implement their own
+ constructors.
+
+ * MOP.xs
+ - Stop is_class_loaded from thinking a class is loaded if it
+ only has an empty GV (Florian Ragwitz).
+ - Add a test for this (Yappo).
+ - Refactor get_all_package_symbols to allow short-circuiting
+ (Florian Ragwitz).
+ - Use this in is_class_loaded (Florian Ragwitz).
+ - Stop segfaulting when trying to get the name from a sub that's
+ still being compiled (Florian Ragwitz).
+ - Add tests for this (Florian Ragwitz).
+ - Prefix all public symbols with "mop_" (Florian Ragwitz).
+ - Clean up and simplify prehashing of hash keys (Florian Ragwitz).
+ - Simplify creating simple xs reader methods (Florian Ragwitz).
+ - Make everything compile with c++ compilers (Florian Ragwitz).
+ - Upgrade ppport.h from 3.14 to 3.17 (Florian Ragwitz).
+
+ * Tests
+ - Remove optional test plans for tests depending on Sub::Name as
+ we have a hard dependency on Sub::Name anyway (Florian Ragwitz).
+
+ * Makefile.PL
+ - Rebuild all c code if mop.h has changed (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+0.78 Mon, February 23, 2009
+ * No changes from 0.77_01
+
+0.77_01 Sun, February 22, 2009
+ * Everything
+ - This package now requires its XS components. Not using
+ Sub::Name lead to different behavior and bugginess in the pure
+ Perl version of the code. A Moose test would fail when run
+ against the pure Perl version of this code.
+
+ * Class::MOP::Instance
+ - The inline_* methods now quote attribute names themselves, and
+ don't expect to receive a quoted value.
+
+
+0.77 Sat, February 14, 2009
* MOP.xs
- Avoid assertion errors on debugging perls in is_class_loaded
(Florian Ragwitz)
- Make sure we generate a BSD-compatible Makefile (Florian
Ragwitz)
-0.76 Thu, January 22, 2008
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - The misspelled "check_metaclass_compatability" method we've
+ kept around for backwards compat_i_bility will be removed in a
+ near future release. You've been warned.
+
+0.76 Thu, January 22, 2009
* Class::MOP::Method::Generated
- Added new private methods to support code generation, which
are being used by Moose and can be used by MooseX
