Revision history for Perl extension Moose
-0.56
+0.5x
+ !! This release has an incompatible change regarding !!
+ how roles add methods to a class !!
+
+ * Roles and role application
+ ! Roles now add methods by calling add_method, not
+ alias_method. They make sure to always provide a method
+ object, which will be cloned internally. This means that it is
+ now possible to track the source of a method provided by a
+ role, and even follow its history through intermediate roles.
+
+ This means that methods added by a role now show up when
+ looking at a class's method list/map. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute
+ - Delegation methods now have their own method class. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Exporter
+ * Moose
+ - Moose::Exporter will no longer remove a subroutine that the
+ exporting package re-exports. Moose re-exports the
+ Carp::confess function, among others. The reasoning is that we
+ cannot know whether you have also explicitly imported those
+ functions for your own use, so we err on the safe side and
+ always keep them. (Dave Rolsky)
+ - added tests for this (rafl)
+
+0.57 Wed September 3, 2008
+ * Moose::Intro
+ - A new bit of doc intended to introduce folks familiar with
+ "standard" Perl 5 OO to Moose concepts. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Unsweetened
+ - Shows examples of two classes, each done first with and then
+ without Moose. This makes a nice parallel to
+ Moose::Intro. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
+ - Fixed a bug in find_or_parse_type_constraint so that it
+ accepts a Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint object as the parent
+ type, not just a name (jnapiorkowski)
+ - added tests (jnapiorkowski)
+
+ * Moose::Exporter
+ - If Sub::Name was not present, unimporting failed to actually
+ remove some sugar subs, causing test failures (Dave Rolsky)
+
+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)
found (t0m).
* Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
- - predicate methods (equals/is_a_type_of/is_subtype_of) now
+ - 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. The behavior is now in line with to
- $ob->isa('DoesNotExist') (t0m).
+ 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)
