# This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
+ MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
+ role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
+ - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
+ as there is no recommended alternative.
+ - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
+ fallback for fully qualified component names.
+ - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
+ - Require HTTP::Request 5.814 and HTTP::Response 5.813 from LWP 5.814
+ to avoid test fails.
+
+ Documentation:
+ - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
+
+ New features:
+ - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
+ switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
+ - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
+ proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
+ - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
+ distributions

+5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
+ Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
+ This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
+ plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
+ method.
+ - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
+ to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
+ - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
+
+ Documentation:
+ - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
+ - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
+ warnings.
+
+ Refactoring / cleanups:
+ - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
+ using them will now generate a warning at startup.
+ - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
+ applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
+ this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771

+5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
+ - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
+ - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
+ now loaded at most once + tests.
+ - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
+ is returned to 'actions'.
+ - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
+ decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
+
+ Refactoring / cleanups:
+ - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
+ many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
+
+ Tests:
+ - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
+ run by authors to stop it being broken again.
+ - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
+
+5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
+ failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
+ installed in @INC.
+
+5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
+ Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
+ than the default chunksize of 64k again.
+
+5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
+ method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
+ This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
+
+5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
+
Bug fixes:
- Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
application class immutable without that option.
variables (RT#48555)
- Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
(RT#48623)
+ - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
+ body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
+ when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
+ - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
+ Request-URI of the Request-Line
Refactoring / cleanups:
- Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
- New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
- Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
- known issues with 5.8.3, and nobody is prepared to fix / support perl
- older than 5.8.6 any more. Patches to regain compatibility to older
- perls would be welcome.
+ known issues with 5.8.3.
- Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
expand_component_module (rjbs)
- Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
- as such by adding a _component_name accessor for all components
+ as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
actions etc.
- Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
