Revision history for Perl extension Moose
+0.56 Mon September 1, 2008
+ For those not following the series of dev releases, there are
+ several major changes in this release of Moose.
+ ! Moose::init_meta should now be called as a method. See the
+ docs for details.
+
+ - Major performance improvements by nothingmuch.
+
+ - New modules for extension writers, Moose::Exporter and
+ Moose::Util::MetaRole by Dave Rolsky.
+
+ - Lots of doc improvements and additions, especially in the
+ cookbook sections.
+
+ - Various bug fixes.
+
+ * Removed all references to the experimental-but-no-longer-needed
+ Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToMetaclassInstance.
+
+ * Require Class::MOP 0.65.
+
+0.55_04 Sat August 30, 2008
+ * Moose::Util::MetaRole
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
+ - This simplifies the application of roles to any meta class, as
+ well as the base object class. Reimplemented metaclass traits
+ using this module. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
+ - This a new recipe, an overview of various ways to write Moose
+ extensions (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe3
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe4
+ - These used to be Extending::Recipe1 and Extending::Recipe2,
+ respectively.
+
+0.55_03 Fri August 29, 2008
+ * No changes from 0.55_02 except increasing the Class::MOP
+ dependency to 0.64_07.
+
+0.55_02 Fri August 29, 2008
+ * Makefile.PL and Moose.pm
+ - explicitly require Perl 5.8.0+ (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
+ - Fix warnings from find_type_constraint if the type is not
+ found (t0m).
+
+ * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
+ - Predicate methods (equals/is_a_type_of/is_subtype_of) now
+ return false if the type you specify cannot be found in the
+ type registry, rather than throwing an unhelpful and
+ coincidental exception. (t0m).
+ - added docs & test for this (t0m)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Registry
+ - add_type_constraint now throws an exception if a parameter is
+ not supplied (t0m).
+ - added docs & test for this (t0m)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::FAQ
+ - Added a faq entry on the difference between "role" and "trait"
+ (t0m)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Role
+ - Fixed a bug that caused role composition to not see a required
+ method when that method was provided by another role being
+ composed at the same time. (Dave Rolsky)
+ - test and bug finding (tokuhirom)
+
+0.55_01 Wed August 20, 2008
+
+ !! Calling Moose::init_meta as a function is now !!
+ !! deprecated. Please see the Moose.pm docs for details. !!
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
+ - Fix inlined constructor so that values produced by default
+ or builder methods are coerced as required. (t0m)
+ - added test for this (t0m)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute
+ - A lazy attribute with a default or builder did not attempt to
+ coerce the default value. The immutable code _did_
+ coerce. (t0m)
+ - added test for this (t0m)
+
+ * Moose::Exporter
+ - This is a new helper module for writing "Moose-alike"
+ modules. This should make the lives of MooseX module authors
+ much easier. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe5
+ - Implemented metaclass traits (and wrote a recipe for it):
+
+ use Moose -traits => 'Foo'
+
+ This should make writing small Moose extensions a little
+ easier (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe1
+ - Removed any examples of direct hashref access, and applied an
+ editorial axe to reduce verbosity. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe1
+ - Also applied an editorial axe here. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
+ - Rewrote extending and embedding moose documentation and
+ recipes to use Moose::Exporter (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose
+ * Moose::Role
+ - These two modules now warn when you load them from the main
+ package "main" package, because we will not export sugar to
+ main. Previously it just did nothing. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Role
+ - Now provide an init_meta method just like Moose.pm, and you
+ can call this to provide an alternate role metaclass. (Dave
+ Rolsky and nothingmuch)
+ - get_method_map now respects the package cache flag (nothingmuch)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Role
+ - Two new methods - add_method and wrap_method_body
+ (nothingmuch)
+
+ * many modules
+ - Optimizations including allowing constructors to accept hash
+ refs, making many more classes immutable, and making
+ constructors immutable. (nothingmuch)
+
+0.55 Sun August 3, 2008
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute
+ - breaking down the way 'handles' methods are
+ created so that the process can be more easily
+ overridden by subclasses (stevan)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
+ - fixing what is passed into a ->message with
+ the type constraints (RT #37569)
+ - added tests for this (Charles Alderman)
+
+ * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
+ - fix coerce to accept anon types like subtype can (mst)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook
+ - reorganized the recipes into sections - Basics, Roles, Meta,
+ Extending - and wrote abstracts for each section (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe10
+ - A new recipe that demonstrates operator overloading
+ in combination with Moose. (bluefeet)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe1
+ - an introduction to what meta is and why you'd want to make
+ your own metaclass extensions (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe4
+ - a very simple metaclass example (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
+ - how to write a Moose-alike module to use your own object base
+ class (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
+ - how to write modules with an API just like C<Moose.pm> (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+ * all documentation
+ - Tons of fixes, both syntactical and grammatical (Dave
+ Rolsky, Paul Fenwick)
+
+0.54 Thurs. July 3, 2008
+ ... this is not my day today ...
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute
+ - fixed legal_options_for_inheritance such that
+ clone_and_inherit options still works for
+ Class::MOP::Attribute objects and therefore
+ does not break MooseX::AttributeHelpers
+ (stevan)
+
+0.53 Thurs. July 3, 2008
+ * Whoops, I guess I should run 'make manifest' before
+ actually releasing the module. No actual changes
+ in this release, except the fact that it includes
+ the changes that I didn't include in the last
+ release. (stevan--)
+
+0.52 Thurs. July 3, 2008
+ * Moose
+ - added "FEATURE REQUESTS" section to the Moose docs
+ to properly direct people (stevan) (RT #34333)
+ - making 'extends' croak if it is passed a Role since
+ this is not ever something you want to do
+ (fixed by stevan, found by obra)
+ - added tests for this (stevan)
+
+ * Moose::Object
+ - adding support for DOES (as in UNIVERSAL::DOES)
+ (nothingmuch)
+ - added test for this
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute
+ - added legal_options_for_inheritance (wreis)
+ - added tests for this (wreis)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Snacks::*
+ - removed some of the unfinished snacks that should
+ not have been released yet. Added some more examples
+ to the 'Keywords' snack. (stevan)
+
+ * Moose::Cookbook::Style
+ - added general Moose "style guide" of sorts to the
+ cookbook (nothingmuch) (RT #34335)
+
+ * t/
+ - added more BUILDARGS tests (stevan)
+
+0.51 Thurs. Jun 26, 2008
+ * Moose::Role
+ - add unimport so "no Moose::Role" actually does
+ something (sartak)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToRole
+ - when RoleA did RoleB, and RoleA aliased a method from RoleB in
+ order to provide its own implementation, that method still got
+ added to the list of required methods for consumers of
+ RoleB. Now an aliased method is only added to the list of
+ required methods if the role doing the aliasing does not
+ provide its own implementation. See Recipe 11 for an example
+ of all this. (Dave Rolsky)
+ - added tests for this
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
+ - when a single argument that wasn't a hashref was provided to
+ an immutabilized constructor, the error message was very
+ unhelpful, as opposed to the non-immutable error. Reported by
+ dew. (Dave Rolsky)
+ - added test for this (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute
+ - added support for meta_attr->does("ShortAlias") (sartak)
+ - added tests for this (sartak)
+ - moved the bulk of the `handles` handling to the new
+ install_delegation method (Stevan)
+
+ * Moose::Object
+ - Added BUILDARGS, a new step in new()
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::RoleSummation
+ - fix typos no one ever sees (sartak)
+
+ * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
+ * Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
+ * Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion
+ - Attempt to work around the ??{ } vs. threads issue
+ (not yet fixed)
+ - Some null_constraint optimizations
+
+0.50 Thurs. Jun 11, 2008
+ - Fixed a version number issue by bumping all modules
+ to 0.50.
+
0.49 Thurs. Jun 11, 2008
+ !! This version now approx. 20-25% !!
+ !! faster with new Class::MOP 0.59 !!
+
* Moose::Meta::Attribute
- fixed how the is => (ro|rw) works with
custom defined reader, writer and accessor
