-next version
+1.10 Sun, Aug 22, 2010
+
+ [API CHANGES]
+
+ * The long-deprecated alias and excludes options for role applications now
+ issue a deprecation warning. Use -alias and -excludes instead. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Inlined code no longer stringifies numeric attribute defaults. (vg, doy)
+
+ * default => undef now works properly. (doy)
+
+ * Enum type constraints now throw errors if their values are nonsensical.
+ (Sartak)
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * Optimizations that should help speed up compilation time (Dave Rolsky).
+
+1.09 Tue, Jul 25, 2010
+
+ [API CHANGES]
+
+ * You can no longer pass "coerce => 1" for an attribute unless its type
+ constraint has a coercion defined. Doing so will issue a deprecation
+ warning. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Previously, '+foo' only allowed a specific set of options to be
+ overridden, which made it impossible to change attribute options related
+ to extensions. Now we blacklist some options, and anything else is
+ allowed. (doy, Tuomas Jormola)
+
+ * Most features which have been declared deprecated now issue a warning using
+ Moose::Deprecated. Warnings are issued once per calling package, not
+ repeatedly. See Moose::Deprecated for information on how you can shut
+ these warnings up entirely. Note that deprecated features will eventually
+ be removed, so shutting up the warnings may not be the best idea. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+ * Removed the long-deprecated Moose::Meta::Role->alias_method method. (Dave
+ Rolsky).
+
+ [NEW FEATURES]
+
+ * We no longer unimport strict and warnings when Moose, Moose::Role, or
+ Moose::Exporter are unimported. Doing this was broken if the user
+ explicitly loaded strict and warnings themself, and the results could be
+ generally surprising. We decided that it was best to err on the side of
+ safety and leave these on. Reported by David Wheeler. RT #58310. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+ * New with_traits helper function in Moose::Util. (doy)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Accessors will no longer be inlined if the instance metaclass isn't
+ inlinable. (doy)
+
+ * Use Perl 5.10's new recursive regex features, if possible, for the type
+ constraint parser. (doy, nothingmuch)
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * Attributes now warn if their accessors overwrite a locally defined
+ function (not just method). (doy)
+
+ [OTHER]
+
+ * Bump our required perl version to 5.8.3, since earlier versions fail tests
+ and aren't easily installable/testable.
+
+1.08 Tue, Jun 15, 2010
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * Refactored a small amount of Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor to allow it
+ to be overridden more easily (doy).
+
+1.07 Sat, Jun 05, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Fixed a minor metaclass compatibility fixing bug dealing with immutable
+ classes and non-class metaclass traits (doy, dougdude).
+
+1.06 Tue, Jun 01, 2010
+
+ [NEW FEATURES]
+
+ * Added '0+' overloading in Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint so that we can
+ more uniformly compare type constraints between 'classic' Moose type
+ constraints and MooseX::Types based type constraints.
+
+1.05 Thu, May 20, 2010
+
+ [API CHANGES]
+
+ * Packages and modules no longer have methods - this functionality was
+ moved back up into Moose::Meta::Class and Moose::Meta::Role individually
+ (through the Class::MOP::Mixin::HasMethods mixin) (doy).
+
+ * BUILDALL is now called by Moose::Meta::Class::new_object, rather than by
+ Moose::Object::new. (doy)
+
+ [NEW FEATURES]
+
+ * strict and warnings are now unimported when Moose, Moose::Role, or
+ Moose::Exporter are unimported. (doy, Adam Kennedy)
+
+ * Added a 'consumers' method to Moose::Meta::Role for finding all
+ classes/roles which consume the given role. (doy)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Fix has '+attr' in Roles to explode immediately, rather than when the role
+ is applied to a class (t0m).
+
+ * Fix type constraint validation messages to not include the string 'failed'
+ twice in the same sentence (Florian Ragwitz).
+
+ * New type constraints will default to being unequal, rather than equal
+ (rjbs).
+
+ * The tests no longer check for perl's behavior of clobbering $@, which has
+ been fixed in perl-5.13.1 (Florian Ragwitz).
+
+ * Metaclass compatibility fixing has been completely rewritten, and should
+ be much more robust. (doy)
+
+1.04 Thu, May 20, 2010
+
+ * This release was broken and has been deleted from CPAN shortly after its
+ upload.
+
+1.03 Thu, May 06, 2010
+
+ [NEW FEATURES]
+
+ * Allow specifying required versions when setting superclasses or applying
+ roles (Florian Ragwitz).
+
+1.02 Sat, May 01, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Stop the natatime method provided by the native Array trait from returning
+ an exhausted iterator when being called with a callback. (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+ * Make Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class correctly reject RegexpRefs.
+ (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+ * Calling is_subtype_of on a Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class with itself or
+ the class the TC represents as an argument incorrectly returned true. This
+ behavior is correct for is_type_of, not is_subtype_of. (Guillermo Roditi)
+
+ * Use File::Temp for temp files created during tests. Previously, files were
+ written to the t/ dir, which could cause problems of the user running the
+ tests did not have write access to that directory.. (Chris Weyl, Ævar
+ Arnfjörð Bjarmason)
+
+ * Pass role arguments along when applying roles to instances. (doy, lsm)
+
+1.01 Fri, Mar 26, 2010
+
+ [NEW FEATURES]
+
+ * The handles option now also accepts a role type constraint in addition to a
+ plain role name. (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+ [OTHER]
+
+ * Record the Sartak/doy debt properly in Changes (perigrin)
+
+1.00 Tue, Mar 25, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Code no longer creates reader
+ methods by default. (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+ [DOCUMENTATION]
+
+ * Improve various parts of the documentation and fix many typos.
+ (Dave Rolsky, Mateu Hunter, Graham Knop, Robin V, Jay Hannah, Jesse Luehrs)
+
+ [OTHER]
+
+ * Paid the $10 debt to doy from 0.80 Sat, Jun 6, 2009 (Sartak)
+
+0.99 Mon, Mar 8, 2010
+
+ [NEW FEATURES]
+
+ * New method find_type_for in Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union, for finding
+ which member of the union a given value validates for. (Cory Watson)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * DEMOLISH methods in mutable subclasses of immutable classes are now called
+ properly (Chia-liang Kao, Jesse Luehrs)
+
+ [NEW DOCUMENTATION]
+
+ * Added Moose::Manual::Support that defines the support, compatiblity, and
+ release policies for Moose. (Chris Prather)
+
+0.98 Wed, Feb 10, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * An internals change in 0.97 broke role application to an instance in some
+ cases. The bug occurred when two different roles were applied to different
+ instances of the same class. (Rafael Kitover)
+
+
+0.97 Tue, Feb 9, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Calling ->reinitialize on a cached anonymous class effectively uncached
+ the metaclass object, causing the metaclass to go out of scope
+ unexpectedly. This could easily happen at a distance by applying a
+ metarole to an anonymous class. (Dave Rolsky).
+
+0.96 Sat, Feb 6, 2010
+
+ [NEW FEATURES]
+
+ * ScalarRef is now a parameterized type. You can now specify a type
+ constraint for whatever the reference points to. (Closes RT#50857)
+ (Michael G. Schwern, Florian Ragwitz)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * ScalarRef now accepts references to other references. (Closes RT#50934)
+ (Michael G. Schwern)
+
+0.95 Thu, Feb 4, 2010
+
+ [NEW FEATURES]
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Code now provides execute_method as
+ a delegation option. This allows the code reference to be called as a
+ method on the object. (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * Moose::Object::does no longer checks the entire inheritance tree, since
+ Moose::Meta::Class::does_role already does this. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Util::add_method_modifier (and subsequently the sugar functions
+ Moose::before, Moose::after, and Moose::around) can now accept arrayrefs,
+ with the same behavior as lists. Types other than arrayref and regexp
+ result in an error. (Dylan Hardison)
+
+0.94 Mon, Jan 18, 2010
+
+ [API CHANGES]
+
+ * Please see the changes listed for 0.93_01 and Moose::Manual::Delta.
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * Improved support for anonymous roles by changing various APIs to take
+ Moose::Meta::Role objects as well as role names. This included
+
+ - Moose::Meta::Class->does_role
+ - Moose::Meta::Role->does_role
+ - Moose::Util::does_role
+ - Moose::Util::apply_all_roles
+ - Moose::Util::ensure_all_roles
+ - Moose::Util::search_class_by_role
+
+ Requested by Shawn Moore. Addresses RT #51143 (and then some). (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Fix handling of non-alphanumeric attributes names like '@foo'. This should
+ work as long as the accessor method names are explicitly set to valid Perl
+ method names. Reported by Doug Treder. RT #53731. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+
+0.93_03 Tue, Jan 5, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Portability fixes to our XS code so we compile with 5.8.8 and Visual
+ C++. Fixes RT #53391. Reported by Taro Nishino. (rafl)
+
+
+0.93_02 Tue, Jan 5, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Depend on Class::MOP 0.97_01 so we can get useful results from CPAN
+ testers. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+
+0.93_01 Mon, Jan 4, 2010
+
+ [API CHANGES]
+
+ See Moose::Manual::Delta for more details on backwards compatiblity issues.
+
+ * Role attributes are now objects of the Moose::Meta::Role::Attribute
+ class. (Dave Rolsky).
+
+ * There were major changes to how metaroles are applied. We now distinguish
+ between metaroles for classes vs those for roles. See the
+ Moose::Util::MetaRole docs for details. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * The old MetaRole API has been deprecated, but will continue to
+ work. However, if you are applying an attribute metaclass role, this may
+ break because of the fact that roles now have an attribute metaclass
+ too. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_metaclass_roles is now called
+ apply_metaroles. The old name is deprecated. Dave Rolsky>
+
+ * The unimport subs created by Moose::Exporter now clean up re-exported
+ functions like blessed and confess, unless the caller imported them from
+ somewhere else too. See Moose::Manua::Delta for backcompat details. (rafl)
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS AND BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Changed the Str constraint to accept magic lvalue strings like one gets from
+ substr et al, again. (sorear)
+
+ * Sped up the type constraint parsing regex. (Sam Vilain)
+
+ * The Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2 recipe was broken. Fix suggested by
+ jrey.
+
+ * Added Moose::Util::TypeConstraints exports when using oose.pm to allow
+ easier testing of TypeConstraints from the command line. (perigrin)
+
+ * Added a with_immutable test function to Test::Moose, to run a block of tests
+ with and without certain classes being immutable. (doy)
+
+ * We now use Module::Install extensions explicitly to avoid confusing errors
+ if they're not installed. We use Module::Install::AuthorRequires to stop
+ test extraction and general failures if you don't have the author side
+ dependencies installed.
+
+ * Fixed a grammar error in Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe4. rt.cpan.org
+ #51791. (Amir E. Aharoni)
+
+
+0.93 Thu, Nov 19, 2009
+ * Moose::Object
+ - Calling $object->new() is no longer deprecated, and no longer
+ warns. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Role
+ - The get_attribute_map method is now deprecated. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
+ - Preserve variable aliasing in @_ for delegated methods, so that
+ altering @_ affects the passed value. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
+ - Allow array refs for non-anonymous form of enum and duck_type, not
+ just anonymous. The non-arrayref forms may be removed in the
+ future. (doy)
+ - Changed Str constraint to not accept globs (*STDIN or *FOO). (chansen)
+ - Properly document Int being a subtype of Str. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Exporter
+ - Moose::Exporter using modules can now export their functions to the
+ main package. This applied to Moose and Moose::Role, among
+ others. (nothingmuch)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute
+ - Don't remove attribute accessors we never installed, during
+ remove_accessors. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Array
+ - Don't bypass prototype checking when calling List::Util::first, to
+ avoid a segfault when it is called with a non-code argument. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Code
+ - Fix passing arguments to code execute helpers. (doy)
+
+0.92 Tue, Sep 22, 2009
+ * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
+ - added the match_on_type operator (Stevan)
+ - added tests and docs for this (Stevan)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Class
+ - Metaclass compat fixing should already happen recursively, there's no
+ need to explicitly walk up the inheritance tree. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute
+ - Add tests for set_raw_value and get_raw_value. (nothingmuch)
+
+0.91 Thu, Sep 17, 2009
+ * Moose::Object
+ - Don't import any functions, in order to avoid polluting our namespace
+ with things that can look like methods (blessed, try, etc)
+ (nothingmuch)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
+ - The generated code needs to called Scalar::Util::blessed by its
+ fully-qualified name or else Perl can interpret the call to blessed as
+ an indirect method call. This broke Search::GIN, which in turn broke
+ KiokuDB. (nothingmuch)
+
+0.90 Tue, Sep 15, 2009
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Counter
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::String
+ - For these two traits, an attribute which did not explicitly provide
+ methods to handles magically ended up delegating *all* the helper
+ methods. This has been removed. You must be explicit in your handles
+ declaration for all Native Traits. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Object
+ - DEMOLISHALL behavior has changed. If any DEMOLISH method dies, we make
+ sure to rethrow its error message. However, we also localize $@ before
+ this so that if all the DEMOLISH methods success, the value of $@ will
+ be preserved. (nothingmuch and Dave Rolsky)
+ - We now also localize $? during object destruction. (nothingmuch and
+ Dave Rolsky)
+ - The handling of DEMOLISH methods was broken for immutablized classes,
+ which were not receiving the value of
+ Devel::GlobalDestruction::in_global_destruction.
+ - These two fixes address some of RT #48271, reported by Zefram.
+ - This is all now documented in Moose::Manual::Construction.
+ - Calling $object->new() is now deprecated. A warning will be
+ issued. (perigrin)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Role
+ - Added more hooks to customize how roles are applied. The role
+ summation class, used to create composite roles, can now be changed
+ and/or have meta-roles applied to it. (rafl)
+ - The get_method_list method no longer explicitly excludes the "meta"
+ method. This was a hack that has been replaced by better hacks. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
+ - fixed delegated methods to make sure that any modifiers attached to
+ the accessor being delegated on will be called (Stevan)
+ - added tests for this (Stevan)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Class
+ - Moose no longer warns when a class that is being made immutable has
+ mutable ancestors. While in theory this is a good thing to warn about,
+ we found so many exceptions to this that doing this properly became
+ quite problematic.
+
+0.89_02 Thu, Sep 10, 2009
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native
+ - Fix Hash, which still had 'empty' instead of 'is_empty'. (hdp)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Array
+ - Added a number of functions from List::Util and List::MoreUtils,
+ including reduce, shuffle, uniq, and natatime. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Exporter
+ - This module will now generate an init_meta method for your exporting
+ class if you pass it options for
+ Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_metaclass_roles or
+ apply_base_class_roles. This eliminates a lot of repetitive
+ boilerplate for typical MooseX modules. (doy).
+ - Documented the with_meta feature, which is a replacement for
+ with_caller. This feature was added by josh a while ago.
+ - The with_caller feature is now deprecated, but will not issue a
+ warning yet. (Dave Rolsky)
+ - If you try to wrap/export a subroutine which doesn't actually exist,
+ Moose::Exporter will warn you about this. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToRole
+ - When a role aliased a method from another role, it was only getting
+ the new (aliased) name, not the original name. This differed from what
+ happens when a class aliases a role's methods. If you _only_ want the
+ aliased name, make sure to also exclue the original name. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+0.89_01 Wed Sep 2, 2009
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute
+ - Added the currying syntax for delegation from AttributeHelpers to the
+ existing delegation API. (hdp)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native
+ - We have merged the functionality of MooseX::AttributeHelpers into the
+ Moose core with some API tweaks. You can continue to use
+ MooseX::AttributeHelpers, but it will not be maintained except
+ (perhaps) for critical bug fixes in the future. See
+ Moose::Manual::Delta for details. (hdp, jhannah, rbuels, Sartak,
+ perigrin, doy)
+
+ * Moose::Error::Croak
+ * Moose::Error::Confess
+ - Clarify documentation on how to use different error-throwing
+ modules. (Curtis Jewell)
+
+ * Moose
+ - Correct POD for builder to point to Recipe8, not 9. (gphat)
+
+ * Moose::Exporter
+ - When a nonexistent sub name is passed to as_is, with_caller, or
+ with_meta, throw a warning and skip the exporting, rather than
+ installing a broken sub. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Class
+ - Moose now warns if you call C<make_immutable> for a class with mutable
+ ancestors. (doy)
+
+0.89 Thu Aug 13, 2009
* Moose::Manual::Attributes
- Clarify "is", include discussion of "bare". (Sartak)
* Moose::Meta::Attribute
* Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor
- - A trigger now receives the old value as a second argument, if
- the attribute had one. (Dave Rolsky)
+ - A trigger now receives the old value as a second argument, if the
+ attribute had one. (Dave Rolsky)
* Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
- Fix a bug with $obj->new when $obj has stringify overloading.
Reported by Andrew Suffield [rt.cpan.org #47882] (Sartak)
- - However, we will probably deprecate $obj->new, so please don't
- start using it for new code!
+ - However, we will probably deprecate $obj->new, so please don't start
+ using it for new code!
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Role::Application
+ * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::RoleSummation
+ - Rename alias and excludes to -alias and -excludes (but keep the old
+ names for now, for backcompat) (doy)
