# This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
+ Bug fixed:
+ - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
+ $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
+ / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
+ which should not be encoded.
+ Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
+ will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
+
+ - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
+ an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
+ any set of args/captures.
+
+ - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
+ path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
+
+ - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
+ removed.
+
+ Documentation:
+ - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
+ for applications.
+ - Various minor typo fixes.
+
+ New features:
+ - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
+
+5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
+
+ Bug fixed:
+ - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
+ paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
+ in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
+
+ Documentation:
+ - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
+ - Clarify documentation about debug
+
+ Deprecations:
+ - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
+ the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
+ You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
+
+5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
+
+ Documentation:
+ - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
+ be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
+ MyApp::View::HTML).
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
+ - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
+ (RT#52898)
+ - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
+ requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
+ %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
+ - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
+ argv key in the options hash.
+ - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
+ Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
+ with the correct options on SIGHUP.
+ - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
+ versions >= 0.93_01
+ - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
+ versions >= 0.93_01
+
+ Cleanups:
+ - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
+ have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
+ your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
+ not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
+ about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
+
+5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
+
+ Bug fixes:
+
+ - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
+ encoding test controller.
+
+ Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
+
+ - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
+ backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
+ - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
+ than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
+ - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
+ - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
+ - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
+ some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
+ the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
+ URI.
+ - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
+
+ New features:
+
+ - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
+ (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
+ less packed with information of no use.
+
+ Documentation:
+
+ - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
+
+5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
+ prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
+ the single character '0'.
+ - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
+
+ Documentation:
+ - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
+ - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
+ FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
+
+5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
+ upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
+ upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
+ produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
+ values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
+ - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
+ - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
+ $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
+ decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
+ tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
+ being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
+ than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
+ (RT#50082)
+ - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
+ in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
+
+ Refactoring / cleanups:
+ - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
+ (and then skipped) normally.
+
+ Documentation:
+ - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
+
+5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
+
+ Bug fixes:
+ - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
+ to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
+ on the old behaviour.
+
+ Refactoring / cleanups:
+ - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
+ are deprecated and now issue warnings.
+

Bug fixes:
- Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
- Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
parents at all.
- - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
+ - Turn off test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
Test::Aggregate is available.
- Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
