Revision history for Perl extension Class-MOP.
-0.29_03
- ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
+0.33
+ * Class::MOP::Attribute
+ - reference values (other than CODE refs)
+ are no longer allowed for defaults
+ - added tests for this
+
+0.32 Sat. Aug. 12, 2006
+ + added Class::MOP::Object so that the
+ metamodel is more complete (and closer
+ to what Perl 6 will probably be).
+
+ * Class::MOP::Package
+ - refactored entire class, this is now
+ the primary gateway between the metaclass
+ and the Perl 5 symbol table
+ - added many tests for this
+ - this class is now a subclass of
+ Class::MOP::Object
+ - added some tests to reflect this
+
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - refactored all symbol table access to
+ use Class::MOP::Package methods instead
+
+ * Class::MOP::Module
+ - adding the $:version attribute in the bootstrap
+ so that Module has a version as an attribute
+ - see comment in Class::MOP for details
+ - added the $:authority attribute to this module
+ as well as an &identifier method, to bring us
+ ever closer to Perl 6 goodness
+ - I have added $AUTHORITY to all the modules
+ - added tests for this
+
+ * Class::MOP::Instance
+ - added &deinitialize_slot for removing slots
+ from an instance
+ - added tests for this
+
+ * Class::MOP::Attribute
+ - added support for &deinitialize_slot for removing
+ slots from an instance
+ - added tests for this
+
+0.31 Sat. July 15, 2006

+ ---------------------------------------
+ This is the first version of Class::MOP
+ to introduce the immutable features which
+ will be used for optimizating the MOP.
+ This support should still be considered
+ experimental, but moving towards stability.
+ ---------------------------------------
+
+ * Created Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
- created the Class::MOP::Package and
- Class::MOP::Module classes to more
- closely conform to Perl 6's meta model
+ * Created the Class::MOP::Package and
+ Class::MOP::Module classes to more
+ closely conform to Perl 6's meta-model
* Class::MOP::Class
- now inherits from Class::MOP::Module
- several methods moved to ::Module and
::Package and now inherited
- added tests for this
-
+
+ * Class::MOP::Instance
+ - added an is_inlinable method to allow other
+ classes to check before they attempt to optimize.
+ - added an inline_create_instance to inline
+ instance creation (of course)
+
** API CHANGE **
- - the Class::MOP::Class::*_package_variable
- methods are all now methods of Class::MOP::Package
- and called *_package_symbol instead. This is
- because they are now more general purpose symbol
- table manipulation methods.
