718e6314 3 Bug fixes:
4 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
5 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
6 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
7 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
8 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.

94edbd2c 105.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
11
8865ee12 12 New features:
13 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
14 title.
2af2a5bf 15 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
16 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
17 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
18 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
19 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
20 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
8865ee12 21
c046f519 22 Bug fixes:
23 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
24 the Content-Length header appropriately)
d4f76f02 25 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
26 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
27 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
28 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
29 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
2af2a5bf 30 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
d4f76f02 31 failing case.
efc2aac0 32 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
33 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
34 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
35 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
36 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
37 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
38 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
39 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
c046f519 40
fa325a7d 41 Documentation:
42 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
43 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
44
47990d3f 455.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
46
47 New features:
4d723d12 48 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
49 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
50 confused.
51
47990d3f 52 Warning fixes:
53 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
f4410281 54 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
55
b2910653 565.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
57
808db1d6 58 Bug fixes:
59 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
60
7f891e1e 61 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
62 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
63
b2910653 64 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
65
d1672c76 665.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
6a75eb0e 67
68 Bug fixes:
69 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
70
03235666 715.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
72
2afd1ea3 73 Bug fixes:
ab83907b 74 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
75 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
76 load Utils before MyApp.pm
77
78 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
79 application
80
81 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
82
2afd1ea3 83 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
84 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
85 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
86 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
87 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
ab83907b 88
1f94dc3a 89 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
90 mode (RT#59738)
2afd1ea3 91
9c64b93a 92 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
93 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
94 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
95
ab83907b 96 Refactoring:
97 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
98 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
99
100 Documentation:
101 - Fix some typos
102
103 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
104
105
cba60982 1065.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
107
13c565fe 108 New features:
109 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
110 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
111 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
112 the default action creation.
113
f5325631 114 Bug fixes:
115 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
116 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
d0f30dbc 117 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
118 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
5410ef06 119 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
2d03a299 120 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
121 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
f5325631 122
123 Documentation:
124 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
125 point.
f8a54681 126 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
127 values.
f73be6d2 128 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
f5325631 129
7aba3b2d 1305.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
131
132 Bug fixes:
133 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
134 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
135 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
136 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
137 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
138
139 New features:
140 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
141 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
142
143 Documentation:
144 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
145 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
146 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
147 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
148
e3a7414d 1495.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
150
46b58c90 151 Bug fixes:
671123ba 152 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
153 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
154 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
c6d27fac 155 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
156 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
4dfe7bde 157 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
158 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
b1cb1951 159 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
46b58c90 160
0319ec68 161 New features:
162 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
163 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
164 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
165 HttpOnly flag
83065d4d 166 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
167 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
62b6b631 168 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
1f52c1d2 169 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
0319ec68 170
8fa9321c 171 Documentation:
172 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
173 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
174
1f52c1d2 175 Cleanups:
176 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
177 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
178 $Catalyst::VERSION.
179
14a1ceef 1805.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
181
025d09f9 182 New features:
183 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
184 the content type and content length if available.
185
13311c16 186 Refactoring / optimizations:
025d09f9 187 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
75b65816 188 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
189 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
190 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
191 screen as easy to write.
3a4abdb3 192 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
025d09f9 193 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
194 in parameter filtering (for example).
13311c16 195 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
196 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
13e46699 197 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
198 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
199 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
025d09f9 200
13e46699 201 Bugs fixed:
76cd735d 202 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
203 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
a160c98d 204 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
205 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
76cd735d 206
d5c5d96f 2075.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
208
52e23ad4 209 Bug fixed:
ad11d2d3 210 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
d5c5d96f 211 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
52e23ad4 212
1bebcac6 2135.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
214
215 New features:
216 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
217 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
218
f0bb41af 2195.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
220
2689f8a4 221 Bug fixed:
222 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
223 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
224 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
225 which should not be encoded.
226 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
227 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
228
229 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
230 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
231 any set of args/captures.
232
f54950f5 233 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
234 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
235
0ff92c67 236 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
237 removed.
c2f4efce 238
239 Documentation:
0ff92c67 240 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
241 for applications.
242 - Various minor typo fixes.
c2f4efce 243
4113e1bb 244 New features:
245 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
246
c6e5058f 2475.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
248
ca78941c 249 Bug fixed:
250 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
251 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
4113e1bb 252 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
ca78941c 253
c9ec25f8 254 Documentation:
255 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
c8083f4e 256 - Clarify documentation about debug
c9ec25f8 257
955d6da6 258 Deprecations:
259 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
260 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
261 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
262
45b607ab 2635.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
264
1d3a0700 265 Documentation:
266 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
267 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
268 MyApp::View::HTML).
269
e1d59dc4 270 Bug fixes:
7388bcae 271 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
1565e158 272 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
273 (RT#52898)
b760ac3d 274 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
275 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
276 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
30b70903 277 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
278 argv key in the options hash.
279 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
280 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
281 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
b1ccae0c 282 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
283 versions >= 0.93_01
e6e2ba11 284 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
285 versions >= 0.93_01
e1d59dc4 286
3f07296e 287 Cleanups:
288 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
289 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
290 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
291 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
292 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.

e66329da 2945.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
295
b42b9094 296 Bug fixes:
e66329da 297
b42b9094 298 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
299 encoding test controller.
e66329da 300
301 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
302
82701bda 303 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
304 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
402697e7 305 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
306 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
307 Rolsky)
ad08ab75 308 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
7eb69527 309 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
eb3abf96 310 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
311 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
312 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
313 URI.
754e86c6 314 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
b42b9094 315
c96cdcef 316 New features:
e66329da 317
c96cdcef 318 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
319 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
320 less packed with information of no use.
321
30079544 322 Documentation:
e66329da 323
30079544 324 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
325
0ab4f753 3265.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
ea72fece 327 Bug fixes:
328 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
329 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
330 the single character '0'.
0ab4f753 331 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
ea72fece 332
333 Documentation:
334 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
5a7d7e5c 335 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
336 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
ea72fece 337
ef546d1e 3385.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
5ab21903 339 Bug fixes:
340 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
341 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
342 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
343 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
344 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
ab95b8e3 345 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
8bf285ed 346 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
347 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
348 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
41b633d8 349 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
350 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
351 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
352 (RT#50082)
6cc3be54 353 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
41b633d8 354 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
5ab21903 355
2b3bb280 356 Refactoring / cleanups:
357 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
358 (and then skipped) normally.
359
ee24f3a8 360 Documentation:
361 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
362
4fac276e 3635.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
c4efaa54 364
365 Bug fixes:
366 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
367 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
368 on the old behaviour.
369
370 Refactoring / cleanups:
371 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
372 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
373
568e11a2 3745.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
375
9f16fdf2 376 Bug fixes:
377 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
378 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
379 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
5b8ac6cc 380 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
381 as there is no recommended alternative.
ab86b480 382 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
4c4d45d3 383 fallback for fully qualified component names.
12755afc 384 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
647a3de1 385 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
386 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
387 startup, rather than with the first hit.
6084071b 388 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
389 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
390 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
391 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
03f5f578 392 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
393 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
394 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
395 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
4c4d45d3 396
d71da6fe 397 Documentation:
398 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
ab2f881b 399 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
6084071b 400 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
401 deprecated and causes warnings).
402 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
403 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
404 in the correct order.
405 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
406 context.
08a2c908 407 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
7d7519a4 408 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
afa66c9a 409 is deprecated (RT#51489)
d71da6fe 410
ab86b480 411 New features:
412 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
4c4d45d3 413 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
fdf85295 414 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
415 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
b39b4848 416 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
417 distributions
10d77181 418 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
419 exception classes need to implement.
420 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
421 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
422 use it.
9f16fdf2 423
647a3de1 424 Refactoring / cleanups:
425 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
426 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
427 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
428 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
429 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
430 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
6084071b 431 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
647a3de1 432

85fc6206 435 Bug fixes:
436 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
437 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
438 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
439 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
440 method.
441 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
442 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
e1e81442 443 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
297ff4ce 444
445 Documentation:
85fc6206 446 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
447 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
448 warnings.
297ff4ce 449
450 Refactoring / cleanups:
85fc6206 451 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
452 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
453 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
454 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
1be0c4f8 455 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771

461 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
d367bfc9 462 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
463 now loaded at most once + tests.
4f4ab5b4 464 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
465 is returned to 'actions'.
466 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
467 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
5d94e8f9 468
469 Refactoring / cleanups:
2407a0ae 470 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
46d32d14 471 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
5d94e8f9 472
473 Tests:
474 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
475 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
476 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.

479
9d59dde8 480 Bug fixes:
481 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
482 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
483 installed in @INC.

f72168b7 4855.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
9d3a7a1f 486
487 Bug fixes:
488 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
489 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
490 than the default chunksize of 64k again.

455b342e 4995.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
500
4ffa3785 501 Bug fixes:
502 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
503 application class immutable without that option.
e1dd56e6 504 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
505 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
506 tests.
2f6049f2 507 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
b0a32aba 508 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
2f6049f2 509 (hopefully) future versions.
803210fa 510 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
511 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
512 variables (RT#48555)
26901354 513 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
514 (RT#48623)
11b4547d 515 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
516 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
517 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
455b342e 518 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
57f56c51 519 Request-URI of the Request-Line
4ffa3785 520
371c6f1a 521 Refactoring / cleanups:
522 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
523 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
b0a32aba 524 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
24964c89 525 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
46d32d14 526 known issues with 5.8.3.
48d435ba 527 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
528 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
009b5b23 529
530 New features:
d05e45ce 531 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
532 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
b0a32aba 533 for the controller namespace
d05e45ce 534 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
282b0c8f 535 expand_component_module (rjbs)
365e0b98 536 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
537 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
8f6cebb2 538 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
365e0b98 539 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
540 actions etc.
3ecba1df 541 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
542 frontend port (jshirley)
8ddad083 543 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
544 the request.
371c6f1a 545
1fe85999 546 Documentation:
547 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
548 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
549 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
7e743798 550 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.

1f851263 555 Bug fixes:
556 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
545e1e3a 557 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
558 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
559 config->{action(s)}
6e444c5c 560 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
1cad29ab 561 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
562 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
fc564128 563 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
564 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
565 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
566 (like ActionClass).
1f851263 567
a375a206 568 New features:
569 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
570 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
571 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
545e1e3a 572 URI.

575
3c9b6867 576 Bug fixes:
655dfc2a 577 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
578 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
545e1e3a 579 applications.
655dfc2a 580 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
545e1e3a 581 in some environments.
655dfc2a 582 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
583 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
584 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
545e1e3a 585 except works correctly with closures.
cf1fb734 586 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
587 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
588 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
589 (jasonk in RT#42816)

655dfc2a 595 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
596 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
597 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
598 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
599 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
545e1e3a 600 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
5d8129e9 601
371c6f1a 602 Refactoring / cleanups:
545e1e3a 603 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
f880d1ec 604 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
605 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
606 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
545e1e3a 607 error message.
608 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
f880d1ec 609 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
545e1e3a 610 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
cf1fb734 611 Fixes RT#47366
612 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
545e1e3a 613 again in Catalyst::Test

545e1e3a 662 environment
663 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
c98492ae 664 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
665 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
545e1e3a 666 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
df3956bf 667 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
545e1e3a 668 to report 'Unknown Error'

545e1e3a 683 parents at all.
d0003a28 684 - Turn off test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
e262f38e 685 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
545e1e3a 686 Test::Aggregate is available.
b553e30c 687 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
cf37d21a 688 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
b553e30c 689 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
84848664 690 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
545e1e3a 691 disabling functionality from base controllers.
692 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
b553e30c 693 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass

545e1e3a 701 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
b6f3ffcb 702 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
703 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
704 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
2c4d213f 705 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
e262f38e 706
b8123bba 7075.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
4cb5d29f 708 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
709 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
710 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
545e1e3a 711 configuration in your application.
712 - Tests for this
05d79b22 713 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
714 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one

545e1e3a 750 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
02298d3a 751 - Tests for this (radek)
752 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
753 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains

776 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
545e1e3a 777 immutable restart correctly.
778 - Tests for this
107d0ba0 779 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises

792 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
793 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
e7924bb5 794 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
795 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
545e1e3a 796 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
e7924bb5 797 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
798 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
799 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
545e1e3a 800 syntax.
e7924bb5 801 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
802 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
803 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
545e1e3a 804 cases
805 - Tests for this
806 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
807 - Add uri_with tests

1013 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
1014 throw warnings for two reasons:
1015 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
1016 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance
1017 instead
df3956bf 1018 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
2f381252 1019 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
1020 method with a regex as the argument
