1 Revision history for Perl extension Catalyst::Plugin::Session
4 - Note that flash is deprecated / not recommended due to it's
5 inherent races. Point out Catalyst::Plugin::StatusMessage instead
8 - Fix handling with enables verify_address and add related test
11 - Fix session being loaded by call to dump_these in debug mode
15 - Fix Makefile.PL's is_upgrading_needed() routine (RT #58771)
18 - Fix session being deleted when you have a new session after session
19 expiry when calling session_is_valid method. Tests for this.
20 - Allow ->session to be used as a setter method so that you can say
21 ->session( key => $value );
24 - Fix session fixation test with LWP 5.833 by calling $cookie_jar->set_cookie
25 rather than manually stuffing the cookie in the request.
28 - Release 0.26_01 as stable without further changes.
31 - Move actions out of the root application class in tests as this
33 - Change configuration key to 'Plugin::Session' by default. The
34 old 'session' key is still supported, but will issue a warning
38 - Remove Test::MockObject from the test suite as prone to failing on
39 some platforms and perl versions due to it's UNIVERSAL:: package
43 - Add the a change_session_id method which can be called after
44 authentication to change the user's session cookie whilst preserving
45 their session data. This can be used to provide protection from
46 Session Fixation attacks. (kmx)
49 - Be more paranoid about getting values of $c->req to avoid issues
50 with old Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst.
51 - Check we have a modern version of TWMC before doing the tests which
55 - Add the verify_user_agent config parameter (kmx)
56 - Add a test case to prove that logging in with a session cookie still
57 causes a new cookie to be issued for you, proving that the code is
58 not vulnerable to a session fixation attack. (t0m)
61 - INSANE HACK to ensure B::Hooks::EndOfScope inlines us a new method right now
62 in Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Test::Store for Catalyst 5.80004 compatibility.
64 This change does not in any way affect normal users - it is just due to the
65 fairly crazy way that Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Test::Store works, and that
66 module is _only_ used for unit testing session store plugins pre-installation.
68 Session::Test::Store should be replaced with a more sane solution, and other
69 CPAN modules using it moved away from using it, but this change keeps stops
70 new Catalyst breaking other distributions right now.
73 - Hide the internal packages in Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Test::Store from PAUSE.
74 - Convert from CAF to Moose with Moosex::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast
77 - No code changes since 0.19_01 dev release.
78 - Add IDEAS.txt which is an irc log of discussion about the next-generation
79 session plugin from discussion on #catalyst-dev
80 - Remove TODO file, which is no longer relevant.
83 - Switch from using NEXT to Class::C3 for method re-dispatch.
84 - Use shipit to package the dist.
85 - Switch to Module::install.
86 - Flash data is now stored inside the session (key "__flash") to avoid
87 duplicate entry errors caused by simultaneous select/insert/delete of
88 flash rows when using DBI as a Store. (Sergio Salvi)
89 - Fix session finalization order that caused HTTP responses to be sent
90 before the session is actually finalized and stored in its Store.
96 - Fix Apache engine issue (RT #28845)
99 - Skip a test if Cookie is not installed (RT #28137)
105 - Fix the bug that caused sessions to expire immediately when another
106 session was deleted previously in the same request cycle
107 - Changed finalize() to redispatch before saving session
108 so other finalize methods still have access to it.
111 - Disable verify_address.
112 - update flash to work like session
115 - Rerelease with slightly changed test due to a behavior change in
118 - improve debug logging
121 - refactor out a hookable finalize_session method, for plugins
122 - make _clear_session_instance_data call NEXT::, so that plugins can
126 - Lazify expiry calculation and store it in a different instance data
127 slot. This provides greater flexibility for implementing hooks like
128 DynamicExpiry the "right" way.
131 - Implement a more well defined finalization order for Session stuff.
132 This solves a problem that was introduced by some value cleanups in
136 - Fix Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Test::Store
139 - rerelease because Module::Bane broke the META.yml. HURAAH
142 - Make build tool complain loudly on incompatible versions of state
146 - Change State plugin API to be pull oriented
147 - Lazify more correctly (mostly performance improvements)
148 - Don't try to compute digest of hash when there is no hash
151 - Un-workaround the Cache::FastMmap (actually Storable) limitation -
152 it's not C::P::Session's business.
153 - add $c->session_expires
155 - improve semantics of session deletion (now deletes flash data too)
156 - improve lazy-load-ness of session data in the light of expiration
158 0.04 2005-12-28 09:42:00
159 - Work around a limitation in Cache::FastMmap - must store only
160 references, while expiration was an NV.
162 0.03 2005-12-26 10:22:00
163 - Lazify loading of session data for better performance and less chance
165 - support for $c->flash a la Ruby on Rails
166 - Fixed bug in sessionid algorithm detection.
167 - Separate __expires from the session data - we write it every time
168 - Lazify saving of session data for better performance and less chance
171 0.02 2005-11-23 09:40:00
173 - No more -Engine=Test
