Revision history for Perl extension Moose
-0.51
+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
- - add unimport so "no Moose::Role" actually does something
+ - 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
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. (thanks Dave Rolsky)
+ 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.
