All + classes now have (more or less) complete API documentation. + + * Class::MOP::Class + * Class::MOP::Immutable + - A big backwards-incompatible refactoring of the Immutable API, + and the make_immutable/make_mutable pieces of the Class API. + + * Class::MOP::Class + * Class::MOP::Instance + - Reblessing into a package that supports overloading wasn't + properly adding overload magic to the object due to a bug + in (at least) 5.8.8. We now use $_[1] directly which seems + to set the magic properly. (Sartak) + + * Class::MOP::Attribute + - The process_accessors method is now private. A public alias + exists (and will stick around for a few releases), but it + warns that calling the public method is deprecated. + + * Class::MOP::Method::Generated + - Removed the new and _new methods, since this is an abstract + base class, and all existing subclasses implement their own + constructors. + + * MOP.xs + - Stop is_class_loaded from thinking a class is loaded if it + only has an empty GV (Florian Ragwitz). + - Add a test for this (Yappo). + - Refactor get_all_package_symbols to allow short-circuiting + (Florian Ragwitz). + - Use this in is_class_loaded (Florian Ragwitz). + - Stop segfaulting when trying to get the name from a sub that's + still being compiled (Florian Ragwitz). + - Add tests for this (Florian Ragwitz). + - Prefix all public symbols with "mop_" (Florian Ragwitz). + - Clean up and simplify prehashing of hash keys (Florian Ragwitz). + - Simplify creating simple xs reader methods (Florian Ragwitz). + - Make everything compile with c++ compilers (Florian Ragwitz). + - Upgrade ppport.h from 3.14 to 3.17 (Florian Ragwitz). + + * Tests + - Remove optional test plans for tests depending on Sub::Name as + we have a hard dependency on Sub::Name anyway (Florian Ragwitz). + + * Makefile.PL + - Rebuild all c code if mop.h has changed (Florian Ragwitz) + +0.78 Mon, February 23, 2009 + * No changes from 0.77_01 + +0.77_01 Sun, February 22, 2009 + * Everything + - This package now requires its XS components. Not using + Sub::Name lead to different behavior and bugginess in the pure + Perl version of the code. A Moose test would fail when run + against the pure Perl version of this code. + + * Class::MOP::Instance + - The inline_* methods now quote attribute names themselves, and + don't expect to receive a quoted value. + + +0.77 Sat, February 14, 2009 + * MOP.xs + - Avoid assertion errors on debugging perls in is_class_loaded + (Florian Ragwitz) + + * Class::MOP + - Fixed various corner cases where is_class_loaded incorrectly + returned true for a class that wasn't really loaded. (Dave + Rolsky) + + * Class::MOP::Class + - Add get_all_method_names (Sartak) + - Add a wrapped_method_metaclass attribute (Florian Ragwitz) + + * Class::MOP::Package + - Disable deprecated get_all_package_symbols in list + context. (Florian Ragwitz) + + * Makefile.PL + - Make sure we generate a BSD-compatible Makefile (Florian + Ragwitz) + + * Class::MOP::Class + - The misspelled "check_metaclass_compatability" method we've + kept around for backwards compat_i_bility will be removed in a + near future release. You've been warned. + +0.76 Thu, January 22, 2009 + * Class::MOP::Method::Generated + - Added new private methods to support code generation, which + are being used by Moose and can be used by MooseX + authors. (mst) + - Generated methods are now generated with a #line directive + reflecting the source of the generated method. (nothingmuch) + + * Class::MOP::Class + - Clarified documentation of methods that return + Class::MOP::Method objects. (doy) + + * Class::MOP + - Clarified documentation of the metaclass cache methods. (Sartak) + + * Tests + - Add test showing how the xs Class::MOP::is_class_loaded can + be made to operate differently to the pure perl version (t0m) + +0.75 Wed, December 31, 2008 + * Class::MOP::Class + - A class that was made immutable and then mutable could end up + sharing an immutable transformer object + (Class::MOP::Immutable) with other classes, leading to all + sorts of odd bugs. Reported by t0m. (Dave Rolsky) + +0.74 Tue, December 25, 2008 + * MOP.xs + - Add an xs implementation of Class::MOP::is_class_loaded (closes + RT#41862). Based on a patch by Goro Fuji. (Florian Ragwitz) + - Changed internals to make prehashing of hash keys easier and less + error-prone. (Florian Ragwitz) + * Class::MOP::Class + - Fix documentation to show that around modifiers happen on both + sides of the modified method. (Dave Rolsky) + +0.73 Tue, December 16, 2008 + * MOP.xs + - Don't use Perl_mro_meta_init. It's not part of the public perl + api. Fixes failures to build on Win32 (RT #41750). (Florian + Ragwitz) + * t/082_get_code_info.t + - Add $^P &= ~0x200; (per Ovid's suggestion) in order to not + munger anonymous subs when under -d and so making the tests + succeed in that case. + +0.72 Mon, December 8, 2008 + * Class::MOP::Package + - Pass options to _new, so subclass' attributes can be + initialized (Sartak) + * Class::MOP::Method + - In the docs, indicate that package_name and name are required + when calling ->wrap (Stefan O'Rear) + +0.71_02 Fri, December 5, 2008 + * Class::MOP::Immutable + - Added a new attribute, inlined_constructor, which is true if + the constructor was inlined. + * Class::MOP::Package + - Make get_all_package_symbols return a hash ref in scalar + context and deprecate calling it in list context with a + warning. (Florian Ragwitz) + * MOP.xs + - Various improvements and refactoring, making things more robust and + easier to maintain. (Florian Ragwitz) + +0.71_01 Wed, December 3, 2008 + * Class::MOP::Method + - Add an "execute" method to invoke the body so + we can avoid using the coderef overload (Sartak) + * Class::MOP::Immutable + - When we memoize methods, get their results lazily + to remove some compile-time cost (Sartak) + - Small speedup from eliminating several method + calls (Sartak) + * Class::MOP::Class + - Some small internal tweaks to try to reduce the number of + times we call get_method_map when bootstrapping the MOP. This + might make loading Class::MOP (and Moose) a little + faster. (Dave Rolsky) + - Implemented an optional XS version of get_method_map. Mostly + taken from a patch by Goro Fuji (rt.cpan.org #41080), with + help form Florian Ragwitz. (Dave Rolsky) + - Make the behaviour of of get_all_package_symbols (and + therefore get_method_map) consistent for stub methods. Report + and test by Goro Fuji (rt.cpan.org #41255). (Florian Ragwitz) + +0.71 Wed November 26, 2008 + * Class::MOP::Class + * Class::MOP::Module + - Actual package creation has moved upward from + Class to Module so that Moose roles can share + the code (Sartak) + +0.70_01 Mon, November 19, 2008 + * Class::MOP + - Fixes for failures with blead (Florian Ragwitz) + - Silenced compiler warnings (Florian Ragwitz) + +0.70 Fri, November 14, 2008 + * Class::MOP + - Fixed an odd corner case where the XS version of + get_all_package_symbols could cause a segfault. This only + happened with inlined constants in Perl 5.10.0 (Florian + Ragwitz) + +0.69 Fri, November 7, 2008 + * Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped + - Added introspection methods for method modifiers (Dave Rolsky) + + +0.68 Fri October 24, 2008 + * Class::MOP + - Make load_class require by file name instead of module name. + This stops confusing error messages when loading '__PACKAGE__'. + (Florian Ragwitz) + - Add load_one_class_of function to enable you to load one of a + list of classes, rather than having to call load_class multiple + times in an eval. (t0m) + +0.67 Tue October 14, 2008 + * Class::MOP::Class + - Call a method on the class after setting the superclass list + so that we can get Perl to detect cycles before MRO::Compat + spirals into an infinite loop (sartak) + - Reported by Schwern, [rt.cpan.org #39001] + - In create(), pass unused options on to initialize() + - added test for this + +0.66 Sat September 20, 2008 + !! This release has an incompatible change regarding !! + introspection of a class's method with Class::MOP::Class !! + + * Tests and XS + - We (us maintainers) now run all tests with XS and then without + XS, which should help us catch skew between the XS/pure Perl + code. (Dave Rolsky) + + * Class::MOP::Class + ! The alias_method method has been deprecated. It now simply + calls add_method instead. There is no distinction between + aliased methods and "real" methods. + + This means that methods added via alias_method now show up as + part of the class's method list/map. This is a backwards + incompatible change, but seems unlikely to break any + code. Famous last words. (Dave Rolsky) + + * Class::MOP::Class + - Fixed the spelling of "compatibility", but we still have a + "check_metaclass_compatability" method for backwards + compatibility. + +0.65 Mon September 1, 2008 + For those not following the series of dev releases, the changes + from 0.64 from 0.65 can mostly be summed up as a lot performance + improvements by nothingmuch, including new optional XS versions of + some methods. Also, Class::MOP now works _without_ any XS modules, + for sad systems without a compiler. + + * Class::MOP::Method + - Added name and package_name XS accessors, and make sure all + the XS and Perl versions work the same way. (Dave Rolsky) + + * MOP.xs + - The XS versions of various methods just returned undef when + called class methods, rather than dying like the pure Perl + versions. (Dave Rolsky) + +0.64_07 Fri August 29, 2008 + * Class::MOP + - Silenced warnings that managed to break Moose tests when XS + was loaded. (Dave Rolsky) + - Some XS versions of methods were ignored because of typos in + MOP.xs. (Dave Rolsky) + +0.64_06 Mon August 25, 2008 + * Class::MOP (MOP.xs) + - Another MS VC++ fix, cannot declare a variable in the middle + of a scope (Taro Nishino). + +0.64_05 Sun August 24, 2008 + * Class::MOP + - None of the dev releases actually loaded the XS properly, but + we silently fell back to the pure Perl version of the + code. (Dave Rolsky) + + * Class::MOP (MOP.xs) + - Replaced some code that used functions not available on Visual + C++ with some Perl XS API bits (Dave Rolsky). + +0.64_04 Sat August 23, 2008 + * Class::MOP::Class + - Workaround a bug in 5.8.1's goto sub (nothingmuch) + + * pod.t and pod_coveraget.t + - These are no longer shipped with the tarball because of bogus + failures from CPAN testers. (Dave Rolsky) + +0.64_03 Thu August 21, 2008 + * Class::MOP::Package + - Some (legit) code was misparsed by earlier 5.8.x + releases. (nothingmuch) + + * Class::MOP + - Fix a constant in void context warning (nothingmuch) + +0.64_02 Thu August 21, 2008 + * Makefile.PL and Class::MOP + - Explicitly require Perl 5.8.0+ (Dave Rolsky) + + * Makefile.PL + - Add missing prereqs that got lost in the switch away from + Module::Install. + + * Class::MOP::Instance + - New method - get_all_attributes (nothingmuch) + +0.64_01 Wed August 20, 2008 + * Makefile.PL + - We now check to see if you have a compiler. If you don't, the + module installs without some XS bits, but will work the same + as with XS. This should make it easier to install on platforms + without a compiler (like Windows). (Dave Rolsky) + + * many modules + - Perl 6 style attribute naming replaced with sane style ('methods', not + '%!methods'). These changes should not impact any existing API uses. + (nothingmuch). + + * many modules + - Quite a number of optimizations based on profiling, including + allowing constructors to take hash references instead of + hashes, duplicating some frequently used code in XS, and + making constructors immutable. These changes should not impact + any existing API uses. (nothingmuch) + + * Many modules + - Constructors now respect the meta attributes of their subclasses, + facilitating MOP extensibility. More related changes will happen in the + next several releases. (nothingmuch) + + * Class::MOP::Class + - New method - get_all_methods, replaces the deprecated + compute_all_applicable_methods. get_all_attributes provided for + consistency (nothingmuch) + - New method - wrap_method was refactored out of get_method_map + (nothingmuch) + - New API for meta instance invalidation - invalidate_meta_instance, + invalidate_meta_instances, add_dependent_meta_instance, + remove_dependent_meta_instance, called automatically when attribute + definitions change and allows notification of dependent subclasses. + (nothingmuch) + +0.64 Sun August 3, 2008 + * Class::MOP::Immutable + - fixing subtle edge case in immutable when you + call ->meta (stevan) + - clean up option processing (nothingmuch) + + * Class::MOP::Instance + - inlined initialize slot didn't match + non-inlined (nothingmuch) + +0.63 Mon July 7, 2008 + * Class::MOP + - load_class will initialize a metaclass even if + the class is already loaded (sartak) + - load_class now returns the metaclass instance + instead of just 1 (sartak) + + * elsewhere + - better error messages (sartak and Dave Rolsky) + 0.62 Wed June 18, 2008 - in is_class_loaded, recognize scalar references (as opposed to globs) in the symbol table as methods (these are optimized constant subs)
