+
+ * There was still one place in the code trying to load Test::Exception
+ instead of Test::Fatal. (Karen Etheridge)
+
+
+1.18 Sun, Oct 31, 2010
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * Type constraint objects now have an assert_coerce method which will either
+ return a valid value or throw an error. (rjbs)
+
+ * We now warn when an accessor for one attribute overwrites an accessor for
+ another attribute. RT #57510. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * The native Array and Hash delegation methods now coerce individual new
+ members if the _member type_ has a coercion. In other words, if the array
+ reference is defined as an ArrayRef[DateTime], and you've defined a
+ coercion from Int to DateTime, then pushing an integer via a delegation
+ method will coerce the integer to a DateTime object. Reported by Karen
+ Etheridge. RT #62351. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * An attribute using native delegations did not always properly coerce and
+ type check a lazily set default value. (doy and Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Using a regexp to define delegations for a class which was not yet loaded
+ did not actually work, but did not explicitly fail. However, it caused an
+ error when the class was loaded later. Reported by Max Kanat-Alexander. RT
+ #60596. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Attempting to delegate to a class or role which is not yet loaded will now
+ throw an explicit error. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Attempting to set lazy_build in an inherited attribute was ignored. RT
+ #62057. (perigrin)

+
+ * The Moose test suite now uses Test::Fatal instead of
+ Test::Exception. (rjbs)

+1.17 Tue, Oct 19, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Make native delegation inlining work with instance metaclasses where slot
+ access is an do {} block, like Kioku. This fixes the use of native
+ delegations together with Kioku. (Scott, doy)
+
+1.16 Mon, Oct 18, 2010
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * Almost every native delegation method which changes the attribute value
+ now has an explicitly documented return value. In general, this return
+ value matches what Perl would return for the same operation. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Lots of work on native delegation documentation, including documenting
+ what arguments each native delegation method allows or requires. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+ * Passing an odd number of args to ->new() now gives a more useful warning
+ than Perl's builtin warning. Suggested by Sir Robert Burbridge. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+ * Allow disabling stack traces by setting an environment variable. See
+ Moose::Error::Default for details. This feature is considered
+ experimental, and may change in a future release. (Marcus Ramberg)
+
+ * The deprecation warning for using alias and excludes without a leading
+ dash now tells you the role being applied and what it was being applied
+ to. (mst).
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * A number of native trait methods which expected strings as arguments did
+ not allow the empty string. This included Array->join, String->match,
+ String->replace, and String->substr. Reported by Whitney Jackson. RT
+ #61962. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * 'no Moose' no longer inadvertently removes imports it didn't create
+ itself. RT #60013. (Florian Ragwitz, doy)
+
+ * Roles now support passing an array reference of method names to method
+ modifier sugar functions. (doy)
+
+ * Native traits no longer use optimized inlining routines if the instance
+ requests it (in particular, if inline_get_slot_value doesn't return
+ something that can be assigned to). This should fix issues with
+ KiokuDB::Class. (doy)
+
+ * We now ignore all Class::MOP and Moose classes when determining what
+ package called a deprecated feature. This should make the deprecation
+ warnings saner, and make it possible to turn them off more easily. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+ * The deprecated "default is" warning no longer happens if the attribute has
+ any accessor method defined (accessor, reader, writer). Also, this warning
+ only happens when a method that was generated because of the "default is"
+ gets called, rather than when the attribute is defined. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * The "default default" code for some native delegations no longer issues a
+ deprecation warning when the attribute is required or has a builder. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+ * Setting a "default default" caused a fatal error if you used the builder
+ or lazy_build options for the attribute. Reported by Kent Fredric. RT
+ #59613. (Dave Rolsky)

[API CHANGES]
- * You can no longer pass "coerce => 1" for an attribute unless its type
- constraint has a coercion defined. If it doesn't, an error will be thrown
- when the attribute is defined. (Dave Rolsky)
+ * Major changes to Native Traits, most of which make them act more like
+ "normal" attributes. This should be mostly compatible with existing code,
+ but see Moose::Manual::Delta for details.
- * has '+foo' now has a blacklist rather than a whitelist for options which
- can be legally inherited (doy, Tuomas Jormola).
+ * A few native traits (String, Counter, Bool) provide default values of "is"
+ and "default" when you created an attribute. Allowing them to provide
+ these values is now deprecated. Supply the value yourself when creating
+ the attribute.
- * Removed the long-deprecated Moose::Meta::Role->alias_method metohd. (Dave
- Rolsky).
+ * New option 'trait_aliases' for Moose::Exporter, which will allow you to
+ generate non-global aliases for your traits (and allow your users to
+ rename the aliases, etc). (doy)
+
+ * 'use Moose' and 'use Moose::Role' now accept a '-meta_name' option, to
+ determine which name to install the 'meta' name under. Passing 'undef'
+ to this option will suppress generation of the meta method entirely. (doy)
+
+ * Moose now warns if it overwrites an existing method named "meta" in your
+ class when you "use Moose". (doy)
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * Native Trait delegations are now all generated as inline code. This should
+ be much faster than the previous method of delegation. In the best case,
+ native trait methods will be very highly optimized.
+
+ * Reinitializing a metaclass no longer removes the existing method and
+ attribute objects (it instead fixes them so they are correct for the
+ reinitialized metaclass). This should make the order of loading many
+ MooseX modules less of an issue. (doy)
+
+ * The Moose::Manual docs have been revised and updated. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * If an attribute was weak, setting it to a non-ref value after the object
+ was constructed caused an error. Now we only call weaken when the new
+ value is a reference.
+
+ * t/040_type_constraints/036_match_type_operator.t failed on 5.13.5+. Fixed
+ based on a patch from Andreas Koenig.
+
+1.14 Tue, Sep 21, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Work around what looks like a bug in List::MoreUtils::any. This bug caused
+ a weird error when defining the same union type twice, but only when using
+ MooseX::Types. Reported by Curtis Jewell. RT #61001. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+1.13 Mon, Sep 13, 2010
+
+ [API CHANGES]
+
+ * The deprecation warnings for alias and excludes are back, use -alias and
+ -excludes instead. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * When composing one role into another and there is an attribute conflict,
+ the error message now includes the attribute name. Reported by Sam
+ Graham. RT #59985. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * When a class is made immutable, the does_role method is overridden with a
+ much faster version that simply looks role names up in a hash. Code which
+ uses lots of role-based type constraints should be faster. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+1.12 Sat, Aug 28, 2010

+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Fix the MANIFEST. Fixes RT #60831, reported by Alberto Simões.
+
+1.11 Fri, Aug 27, 2010
+
+ [API CHANGES]
+
+ * An attribute in a subclass can now override the value of "is". (doy)
+
+ * The deprecation warnings for alias and excludes have been turned back off
+ for this release, to give other module authors a chance to tweak their
+ code. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * mro::get_linear_isa was being called as a function rather than a method,
+ which caused problems with Perl 5.8.x. (t0m)
+
+ * Union types always created a type constraint, even if their constituent
+ constraints did not have any coercions. This bogus coercion always
+ returned undef, which meant that a union which included Undef as a member
+ always coerced bad values to undef. Reported by Eric Brine. RT
+ #58411. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Union types with coercions would always fall back to coercing the value to
+ undef (unintentionally). Now if all the coercions for a union type fail,
+ the value returned by the coercion is the original value that we attempted
+ to coerce. (Dave Rolsky).
+
+1.10 Sun, Aug 22, 2010
+
+ [API CHANGES]
+
+ * The long-deprecated alias and excludes options for role applications now
+ issue a deprecation warning. Use -alias and -excludes instead. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Inlined code no longer stringifies numeric attribute defaults. (vg, doy)
+
+ * default => undef now works properly. (doy)
+
+ * Enum type constraints now throw errors if their values are nonsensical.
+ (Sartak)
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * Optimizations that should help speed up compilation time (Dave Rolsky).
+
+1.09 Tue, Jul 25, 2010
+
+ [API CHANGES]
+
+ * You can no longer pass "coerce => 1" for an attribute unless its type
+ constraint has a coercion defined. Doing so will issue a deprecation
+ warning. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Previously, '+foo' only allowed a specific set of options to be
+ overridden, which made it impossible to change attribute options related
+ to extensions. Now we blacklist some options, and anything else is
+ allowed. (doy, Tuomas Jormola)
* Most features which have been declared deprecated now issue a warning using
Moose::Deprecated. Warnings are issued once per calling package, not
be removed, so shutting up the warnings may not be the best idea. (Dave
Rolsky)
+ * Removed the long-deprecated Moose::Meta::Role->alias_method method. (Dave
+ Rolsky).
