Also see Moose::Manual::Delta for more details of, and workarounds
for, noteworthy changes.
-next version
+0.90
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Counter
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::String
+ - For these two traits, an attribute which did not explicitly provide
+ methods to handles magically ended up delegating *all* the helper
+ methods. This has been removed. You must be explicit in your handles
+ declaration for all Native Traits. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Object
+ - DEMOLISHALL behavior has changed. If any DEMOLISH method dies, we make
+ sure to rethrow its error message. However, we also localize $@ before
+ this so that if all the DEMOLISH methods success, the value of $@ will
+ be preserved. (nothingmuch and Dave Rolsky)
+ - We now also localize $? during object destruction. (nothingmuch and
+ Dave Rolsky)
+ - The handling of DEMOLISH methods was broken for immutablized classes,
+ which were not receiving the value of
+ Devel::GlobalDestruction::in_global_destruction.
+ - These two fixes address some of RT #48271, reported by Zefram.
+ - This is all now documented in Moose::Manual::Construction.
+ - Calling $object->new() is now deprecated. A warning will be
+ issued. (perigrin)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Role
+ - Added more hooks to customize how roles are applied. The role
+ summation class, used to create composite roles, can now be changed
+ and/or have meta-roles applied to it. (rafl)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
+ - fixed delegated methods to make sure that any modifiers attached to
+ the accessor being delegated on will be called (Stevan)
+ - added tests for this (Stevan)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Class
+ - Moose no longer warns when a class that is being made immutable has
+ mutable ancestors. While in theory this is a good thing to warn about,
+ we found so many exceptions to this that doing this properly became
+ quite problematic.
+
+0.89_02 Thu, Sep 10, 2009
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native
+ - Fix Hash, which still had 'empty' instead of 'is_empty'. (hdp)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Array
+ - Added a number of functions from List::Util and List::MoreUtils,
+ including reduce, shuffle, uniq, and natatime. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Exporter
+ - This module will now generate an init_meta method for your exporting
+ class if you pass it options for
+ Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_metaclass_roles or
+ apply_base_class_roles. This eliminates a lot of repetitive
+ boilerplate for typical MooseX modules. (doy).
+ - Documented the with_meta feature, which is a replacement for
+ with_caller. This feature was added by josh a while ago.
+ - The with_caller feature is now deprecated, but will not issue a
+ warning yet. (Dave Rolsky)
+ - If you try to wrap/export a subroutine which doesn't actually exist,
+ Moose::Exporter will warn you about this. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToRole
+ - When a role aliased a method from another role, it was only getting
+ the new (aliased) name, not the original name. This differed from what
+ happens when a class aliases a role's methods. If you _only_ want the
+ aliased name, make sure to also exclue the original name. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+0.89_01 Wed Sep 2, 2009
* Moose::Meta::Attribute
- - Added the currying syntax for delegation from AttributeHelpers
- to the existing delegation API. (hdp)
+ - Added the currying syntax for delegation from AttributeHelpers to the
+ existing delegation API. (hdp)
* Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native
- - Moved in from MooseX::AttributeHelpers with API tweaks. See
+ - We have merged the functionality of MooseX::AttributeHelpers into the
+ Moose core with some API tweaks. You can continue to use
+ MooseX::AttributeHelpers, but it will not be maintained except
+ (perhaps) for critical bug fixes in the future. See
Moose::Manual::Delta for details. (hdp, jhannah, rbuels, Sartak,
perigrin, doy)
+ * Moose::Error::Croak
+ * Moose::Error::Confess
+ - Clarify documentation on how to use different error-throwing
+ modules. (Curtis Jewell)
+
+ * Moose
+ - Correct POD for builder to point to Recipe8, not 9. (gphat)
+
+ * Moose::Exporter
+ - When a nonexistent sub name is passed to as_is, with_caller, or
+ with_meta, throw a warning and skip the exporting, rather than
+ installing a broken sub. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Class
+ - Moose now warns if you call C<make_immutable> for a class with mutable
+ ancestors. (doy)
+
0.89 Thu Aug 13, 2009
* Moose::Manual::Attributes
- Clarify "is", include discussion of "bare". (Sartak)
- However, we will probably deprecate $obj->new, so please don't start
using it for new code!
+ * Moose::Meta::Role::Application
+ * Moose::Meta::Role::Application::RoleSummation
+ - Rename alias and excludes to -alias and -excludes (but keep the old
+ names for now, for backcompat) (doy)
+
0.88 Fri Jul 24, 2009
* Moose::Manual::Contributing
- Re-write the Moose::Manual::Contributing document to reflect
that's what we need.
0.80 Sat, Jun 6, 2009
- * Moose::Manual::FAQ
+ * Moose::Manual::FAQ
- Add FAQ about the coercion change from 0.76 because it came up
three times today (perigrin)
- Win doy $10 dollars because Sartak didn't think anybody
