# This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
+5.90019 - 2012-12-04 21:31:00
+ - Fix for perl 5.17.6 (commit g7dc8663). RT#81601
+ - Fix for perl 5.8. RT#61122
+ - Remove use of MooseX::Types as MooseX::Types is broken on perl5.8
+ RT#77100 & RT#81121
+
+5.90018 - 2012-10-23 20:55:00
+ - Changed code in test suite so it no longer trips up on recent changes to
+ HTTP::Message.
+
+5.90017 - 2012-10-19 22:33:00
+ - Change Catalsyt _parse_attrs so that when sub attr handlers:
+
+ 1) Can return multiple pairs of new attributes.
+ 2) Get their returned attributes passed through the correct attribute handler.
+
+ e.g sub _parse_Whatever_attr { return Chained => 'foo', PathPart => 'bar' }
+
+ Will now work because both new attributes are respected, and the Chained
+ attribute is passed to _parse_Chained_attr and fixed up correctly by that.
+
+ - In Catalyst::Test, don't mangle headers of non-HTML responses. RT#79043
+
+ - Refactor request and response class construction to add methods
+ that roles can hook to feed extra parameters into the constructor
+ of request or response classes.
+
+5.90016 - 2012-08-16 15:35:00
+ - prepare_parameters is no longer an attribute builder. It is now a method
+ that calls the correct underlying functionality (Bill Moseley++)
+ - Updated Makefile.PL to handle MacOXS tar
+ - Fix uri_for to handle a stringifiable object
+ - Fix model/view/controller methods to handle stringifiable objects
+ - Fix RT#78377 - IIS7 ignores response body for 3xx requests, which
+ causes (a different) response to be broken when using keepalive.
+ Fixed by applying Middleware which removes the response body and
+ content length that Catalyst supplies with redirects.
+
+5.90015 - 2012-06-30 16:57:00
+ - Fix $c->finalize_headers getting called twice. RT#78090
+ - Fix test fails in Catalyst-Plugin-Session-State-Cookie. RT#76179
+ - Fix test fails in Catalyst-Plugin-StackTrace
+ - Fix test fails in Test-WWW-Mechanize-Catalyst
+
+5.90014 - 2012-06-26 10:00:00
+
+ - Fix calling finalize_headers before writing body when using $c->write /
+ $c->res->write (fixes RT#76179).
+
+5.90013 - 2012-06-21 10:40:00
+
+ - Release previous TRIAL as stable.
+ - We failed to note in the previous changelog that the Makefile.PL has been
+ improved to make it easier for authors to bootstrap a developer install
+ of Catalyst.
+
+5.90013 - TRIAL 2012-06-07 20:21:00
+
+ New features:
+ - Merge Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole into Catalyst::Controller.
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Fix warnings in some matching cases for Action methods with
+ Args(), when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Chained
+
+ - Fix request body parameters to not be undef if no parameters
+ are supplied.
+
+ - Fix action_args config so that it can be specified in the
+ top level config.
+
+ - Fix t/author/http-server.t on Win32
+
+ - Fix use of Test::Aggregate to make tests faster.
+
+5.90012 - 2012-05-16 09:59:00
+
+ Distribution META.yml changes:
+ - author key is now correct, rather than what Module::Install
+ mis-parses from the documentation.
+ - x_authority key added.
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Fix request body parameters being multiply rebuilt. Fixes both
+ RT#75607 and CatalystX::DebugFilter
+
+ - Make plugin de-duplication work as intended originally, as whilst
+ duplicate plugins are totally unwise, the C3 error given to the user
+ is less than helpful.
+
+ - Remove dependence on obscure behaviour in B::Hooks::EndOfScope
+ for backward compatibility. This fixes issues with behaviour changes
+ in bleadperl. RT#76437
+
+ - Work around Moose bug RT#75367 which breaks
+ Catalyst::Controller::DBIC::API.
+
+ Documentation:
+ - Fix documentation in Catalyst::Component to show attributes and
+ calling readers, rather than accessing elements in the $self->{} hash
+ directly.
+ - Add note in Catalyst::Component to strongly disrecommend $self->config
+ - Fix vague 'checkout' wording in Catalyst::Utils. RT#77000
+ - Fix documentation for the 'secure' method in Catalyst:Request. RT#76710
+
+5.90011 - 2012-03-08 16:43:00
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Simplification of the previous changes to Catalyst::ScriptRunner
+ We now just push $FindBin::Bin/../lib to the @INC path again, but
+ only if one of the dist indicator files (Makefile.PL Build.PL or
+ dist.ini) can be found in $FindBin::Bin/../$_
+ This avoids heuristics when the app is unloaded and therefore
+ works better for extensions which have entire applications in
+ their test suites.
+ - Bug fix to again correctly detect checkouts in dist zilla using
+ applications.
+ - --background option for the server script now only closes
+ STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR. This fixes issues with Log::Dispatch
+ and other loggers which open a file handle when
+ - Change incorrect use of File::Spec->catdir to File::Spec->catfile
+ so that we work on platforms which care about this (VMS?)
+ - Make it more obvious if our PSGI server doesn't pass in a response
+ callback.
+
+5.90010 - 2012-02-18 00:01:00
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Fix the previous fix to Catalyst::ScriptRunner which was resulting
+ in the lib directory not being pushed onto @INC.
+ This meant perl ./script/myapp_server.pl failed, however
+ perl -Ilib ./script/myapp_server.pl would succeed.
+
+5.90009 - 2012-02-16 09:06:00
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Fix the debug page so that it works as expected with the latest
+ refactoring.
+
+ - The Catalyst::Utils::home function is used to find if the application
+ is a checkout in Catalyst::ScriptRunner. This means that a non-existant
+ lib directory that is relative to the script install location is not
+ included when not running from a checkout.
+
+ - Fix dead links to cpansearch.perl.org to point to metacpan.org.
+
+ - Require the latest version of B::Hooks::EndOfScope (0.10) to avoid an
+ issue with new versions of Module::Runtime (0.012) on perl 5.10
+ which stopped Catalyst::Controller from compiling.
+
+ - In Catalyst::Test, don't mangle headers of non-HTML responses. RT#79043
+
+5.90008 - TRIAL 2012-02-06 20:49:00
+
New features and refactoring:
- - Much of the Catalyst::Engine code has been moved into Catalyst::Reqiest
+ - Much of the Catalyst::Engine code has been moved into Catalyst::Request
and Catalyst::Response, to be able to better support asynchronous web
servers such as Twiggy, by making the application engine more reenterant.
Catalyst::Engine::PSGI is now considered fully deprecated.
+ - The private _dump method in Catalyst::Log is now deprecated. The dumper is
+ not pluggable and which dumper to use should be a user choice. Using
+ an imported Dump() or Dumper() function is less typing than $c->log->_dump
+ and as this method is unused anywhere else in Catalyst, it has been scheduled
+ for removal as a cleanup. Calling this method will now emit a stack trace
+ on first call (but not on subsequent calls).
+
Back compatibility fixes:
- Applications still using Catalyst::Engine::PSGI as they rely on
$c->request->env - this is now the provided (and recommended) way of
accessing the raw PSGI environment.
Tests:
- - Some of the spurious warnings have been removed from the test suite
- (although the test suite is not yet warning free)
+ - Spurious warnings have been removed from the test suite
Documentation:
- Fix the display of PROJECT FOUNDER and CONTRIBUTORS sections in the
