808db1d6 3 Bug fixes:
4 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
5
d1672c76 65.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
6a75eb0e 7
8 Bug fixes:
9 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
10
03235666 115.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
12
2afd1ea3 13 Bug fixes:
ab83907b 14 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
15 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
16 load Utils before MyApp.pm
17
18 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
19 application
20
21 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
22
2afd1ea3 23 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
24 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
25 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
26 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
27 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
ab83907b 28
1f94dc3a 29 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
30 mode (RT#59738)
2afd1ea3 31
9c64b93a 32 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
33 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
34 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
35
ab83907b 36 Refactoring:
37 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
38 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
39
40 Documentation:
41 - Fix some typos
42
43 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI

cba60982 465.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
47
13c565fe 48 New features:
49 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
50 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
51 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
52 the default action creation.
53
f5325631 54 Bug fixes:
55 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
56 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
d0f30dbc 57 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
58 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
5410ef06 59 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
2d03a299 60 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
61 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
f5325631 62
63 Documentation:
64 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
65 point.
f8a54681 66 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
67 values.
f73be6d2 68 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
f5325631 69
7aba3b2d 705.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
71
72 Bug fixes:
73 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
74 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
75 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
76 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
77 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
78
79 New features:
80 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
81 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
82
83 Documentation:
84 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
85 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
86 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
87 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
88
e3a7414d 895.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
90
46b58c90 91 Bug fixes:
671123ba 92 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
93 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
94 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
c6d27fac 95 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
96 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
4dfe7bde 97 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
98 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
b1cb1951 99 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
46b58c90 100
0319ec68 101 New features:
102 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
103 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
104 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
105 HttpOnly flag
83065d4d 106 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
107 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
62b6b631 108 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
1f52c1d2 109 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
0319ec68 110
8fa9321c 111 Documentation:
112 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
113 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
114
1f52c1d2 115 Cleanups:
116 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
117 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
118 $Catalyst::VERSION.
119
14a1ceef 1205.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
121
025d09f9 122 New features:
123 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
124 the content type and content length if available.
125
13311c16 126 Refactoring / optimizations:
025d09f9 127 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
75b65816 128 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
129 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
130 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
131 screen as easy to write.
3a4abdb3 132 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
025d09f9 133 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
134 in parameter filtering (for example).
13311c16 135 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
136 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
13e46699 137 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
138 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
139 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
025d09f9 140
13e46699 141 Bugs fixed:
76cd735d 142 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
143 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
a160c98d 144 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
145 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
76cd735d 146
d5c5d96f 1475.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
148
52e23ad4 149 Bug fixed:
ad11d2d3 150 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
d5c5d96f 151 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
52e23ad4 152
1bebcac6 1535.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
154
155 New features:
156 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
157 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
158
f0bb41af 1595.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
160
2689f8a4 161 Bug fixed:
162 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
163 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
164 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
165 which should not be encoded.
166 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
167 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
168
169 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
170 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
171 any set of args/captures.
172
f54950f5 173 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
174 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
175
0ff92c67 176 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
177 removed.
c2f4efce 178
179 Documentation:
0ff92c67 180 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
181 for applications.
182 - Various minor typo fixes.
c2f4efce 183
4113e1bb 184 New features:
185 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
186
c6e5058f 1875.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
188
ca78941c 189 Bug fixed:
190 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
191 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
4113e1bb 192 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
ca78941c 193
c9ec25f8 194 Documentation:
195 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
c8083f4e 196 - Clarify documentation about debug
c9ec25f8 197
955d6da6 198 Deprecations:
199 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
200 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
201 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
202
45b607ab 2035.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
204
1d3a0700 205 Documentation:
206 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
207 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
208 MyApp::View::HTML).
209
e1d59dc4 210 Bug fixes:
7388bcae 211 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
1565e158 212 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
213 (RT#52898)
b760ac3d 214 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
215 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
216 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
30b70903 217 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
218 argv key in the options hash.
219 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
220 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
221 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
b1ccae0c 222 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
223 versions >= 0.93_01
e6e2ba11 224 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
225 versions >= 0.93_01
e1d59dc4 226
3f07296e 227 Cleanups:
228 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
229 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
230 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
231 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
232 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
233
e66329da 2345.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
235
b42b9094 236 Bug fixes:
e66329da 237
b42b9094 238 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
239 encoding test controller.
e66329da 240
241 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
242
82701bda 243 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
244 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
402697e7 245 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
246 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
247 Rolsky)
ad08ab75 248 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
7eb69527 249 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
eb3abf96 250 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
251 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
252 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
253 URI.
754e86c6 254 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
b42b9094 255
c96cdcef 256 New features:
e66329da 257
c96cdcef 258 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
259 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
260 less packed with information of no use.
261
30079544 262 Documentation:
e66329da 263
30079544 264 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
265
0ab4f753 2665.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
ea72fece 267 Bug fixes:
268 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
269 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
270 the single character '0'.
0ab4f753 271 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
ea72fece 272
273 Documentation:
274 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
5a7d7e5c 275 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
276 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
ea72fece 277
ef546d1e 2785.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
5ab21903 279 Bug fixes:
280 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
281 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
282 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
283 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
284 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
ab95b8e3 285 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
8bf285ed 286 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
287 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
288 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
41b633d8 289 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
290 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
291 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
292 (RT#50082)
6cc3be54 293 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
41b633d8 294 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
5ab21903 295
2b3bb280 296 Refactoring / cleanups:
297 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
298 (and then skipped) normally.
299
ee24f3a8 300 Documentation:
301 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
302
4fac276e 3035.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
c4efaa54 304
305 Bug fixes:
306 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
307 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
308 on the old behaviour.
309
310 Refactoring / cleanups:
311 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
312 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
313
568e11a2 3145.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
315
9f16fdf2 316 Bug fixes:
317 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
318 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
319 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
5b8ac6cc 320 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
321 as there is no recommended alternative.
ab86b480 322 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
4c4d45d3 323 fallback for fully qualified component names.
12755afc 324 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
647a3de1 325 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
326 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
327 startup, rather than with the first hit.
6084071b 328 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
329 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
330 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
331 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
03f5f578 332 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
333 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
334 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
335 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
4c4d45d3 336
d71da6fe 337 Documentation:
338 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
ab2f881b 339 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
6084071b 340 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
341 deprecated and causes warnings).
342 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
343 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
344 in the correct order.
345 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
346 context.
08a2c908 347 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
7d7519a4 348 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
afa66c9a 349 is deprecated (RT#51489)
d71da6fe 350
ab86b480 351 New features:
352 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
4c4d45d3 353 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
fdf85295 354 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
355 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
b39b4848 356 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
357 distributions
10d77181 358 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
359 exception classes need to implement.
360 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
361 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
362 use it.
9f16fdf2 363
647a3de1 364 Refactoring / cleanups:
365 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
366 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
367 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
368 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
369 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
370 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
6084071b 371 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
647a3de1 372
1be0c4f8 3735.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
374
85fc6206 375 Bug fixes:
376 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
377 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
378 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
379 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
380 method.
381 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
382 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
e1e81442 383 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
297ff4ce 384
385 Documentation:
85fc6206 386 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
387 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
388 warnings.
297ff4ce 389
390 Refactoring / cleanups:
85fc6206 391 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
392 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
393 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
394 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
1be0c4f8 395 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
83b8cda1 396
534d1a9a 3975.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
3803e98f 398
5d94e8f9 399 Bug fixes:
400 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
401 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
d367bfc9 402 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
403 now loaded at most once + tests.
4f4ab5b4 404 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
405 is returned to 'actions'.
406 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
407 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
5d94e8f9 408
409 Refactoring / cleanups:
2407a0ae 410 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
46d32d14 411 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
5d94e8f9 412
413 Tests:
414 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
415 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
416 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
417
a61a96b3 4185.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
419
9d59dde8 420 Bug fixes:
421 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
422 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
423 installed in @INC.
424
f72168b7 4255.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
9d3a7a1f 426
427 Bug fixes:
428 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
429 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
430 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
431
1b290713 4325.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
433
e7e4c469 434 Bug fixes:
435 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
436 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.

4ffa3785 441 Bug fixes:
442 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
443 application class immutable without that option.
e1dd56e6 444 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
445 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
446 tests.
2f6049f2 447 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
b0a32aba 448 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
2f6049f2 449 (hopefully) future versions.
803210fa 450 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
451 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
452 variables (RT#48555)
26901354 453 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
454 (RT#48623)
11b4547d 455 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
456 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
457 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
455b342e 458 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
57f56c51 459 Request-URI of the Request-Line
4ffa3785 460
371c6f1a 461 Refactoring / cleanups:
462 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
463 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
b0a32aba 464 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
24964c89 465 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
46d32d14 466 known issues with 5.8.3.
48d435ba 467 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
468 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
009b5b23 469
470 New features:
d05e45ce 471 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
472 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
b0a32aba 473 for the controller namespace
d05e45ce 474 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
282b0c8f 475 expand_component_module (rjbs)
365e0b98 476 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
477 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
8f6cebb2 478 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
365e0b98 479 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
480 actions etc.
3ecba1df 481 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
482 frontend port (jshirley)
8ddad083 483 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
484 the request.
371c6f1a 485
1fe85999 486 Documentation:
487 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
488 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
489 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
7e743798 490 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.

1f851263 495 Bug fixes:
496 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
545e1e3a 497 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
498 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
499 config->{action(s)}
6e444c5c 500 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
1cad29ab 501 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
502 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
fc564128 503 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
504 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
505 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
506 (like ActionClass).
1f851263 507
a375a206 508 New features:
509 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
510 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
511 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
545e1e3a 512 URI.

515
3c9b6867 516 Bug fixes:
655dfc2a 517 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
518 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
545e1e3a 519 applications.
655dfc2a 520 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
545e1e3a 521 in some environments.
655dfc2a 522 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
523 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
524 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
545e1e3a 525 except works correctly with closures.
cf1fb734 526 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
527 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
528 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
529 (jasonk in RT#42816)

531 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
532 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
3c9b6867 533
d58edd2a 534 New features:
655dfc2a 535 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
536 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
537 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
538 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
539 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
545e1e3a 540 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
5d8129e9 541
371c6f1a 542 Refactoring / cleanups:
545e1e3a 543 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
f880d1ec 544 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
545 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
546 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
545e1e3a 547 error message.
548 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
f880d1ec 549 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
545e1e3a 550 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
cf1fb734 551 Fixes RT#47366
552 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
545e1e3a 553 again in Catalyst::Test

545e1e3a 626 Test::Aggregate is available.
b553e30c 627 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
cf37d21a 628 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
b553e30c 629 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
84848664 630 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
545e1e3a 631 disabling functionality from base controllers.
632 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
b553e30c 633 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass

545e1e3a 641 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
b6f3ffcb 642 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
643 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
644 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
2c4d213f 645 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
e262f38e 646
b8123bba 6475.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
4cb5d29f 648 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
649 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
650 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
545e1e3a 651 configuration in your application.
652 - Tests for this

02298d3a 689 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
545e1e3a 690 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
02298d3a 691 - Tests for this (radek)
692 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
693 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains

545e1e3a 736 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
e7924bb5 737 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
738 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
739 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
545e1e3a 740 syntax.
e7924bb5 741 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
742 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.

745 - Tests for this
746 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
747 - Add uri_with tests

953 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
954 throw warnings for two reasons:
955 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
956 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance
957 instead
df3956bf 958 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
2f381252 959 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
960 method with a regex as the argument
