5 See Catalyst::Delta for the major changes in this release.
7 Changelog since the last TRIAL release:
9 Backward compatibility fixes:
11 - Fix calling MyApp->engine_class to set the engine class manually.
13 - Re-add a $res->headers->{status} field to Catalyst::Test responses.
14 This _should_ be accessed with $c->res->code instead, but is here
15 for backward compatibility.
19 - Documentation which was in the now removed Catalyst::Engine::* classes
20 has been moved to Catalyst::Manual::Deployment
24 - nginx specific behaviour is removed as it is not needed with any
25 web server configuration I can come up with (recommended config is
26 documented in Catalst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI)
28 5.89003 2011-07-28 20:11:50 (TRIAL release)
30 Backward compatibility fixes:
32 - Application scripts which have not been upgraded to newer
33 Catalyst::Script::XXX style scripts have been fixed
37 - mod_perl handler fixed to work with application classes which have manually
40 - Scripts now force the Plack engine choice manually, rather than relying
41 on auto-detection, as the automatic mechanism gets it wrong if (for
42 example) Coro is loaded.
44 - Server script option for --fork --keepalive are now handled by loading
45 the Starman server, rather than silently ignored.
47 - Server script options for --background and --pid are now fixed by
48 using MooseX::Deamonize
50 - Plack middlewares to deal with issues in Lighttpd and IIS6 are now
51 automatically applied to applications and deployments which need them
52 (when there is not a user written .psgi script available).
53 This fixes compatibility with previous stable releases for applications
54 deployed in these environments.
58 - Catalyst::Test's remote_request method not uses Plack::Test to perform
62 - Added a Catalyst::PSGI manual page with information about writing a .psgi
63 file for your application.
65 - Catalyst::Uprading has been improved, and the status of old Catalyst
69 - Catalyst::Test's local_request function is now deprecated. You should just
70 use the normal request function against a local server instead.
72 5.80033 2011-07-24 16:09:00
75 - Fix Catalyst::Request so that the hostname accessor is not incorrectly
76 populated with 'localhost' if a reverse DNS lookup fails.
78 - Fix Path actions debug screen to display number of arguments
80 - Fix a regression that prevented configuring attributes for all actions using
81 ->config(actions => { '*' => \%attrs }) from working
83 - Append $\ in Catalyst::Response->print to more closely match
84 IO::Handle's behaviour.
86 - Fixed situation where a detach($action) from a forward within auto
87 was not breaking out correctly
89 - Fix the disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config setting
90 to also work in the $c->component method.
92 - Handle users setting cookies with an undef value by not trying to
93 output that cookie (rather than trying to do so and causing an exception
94 as previously happened). A warning is logged if this occurs in debug
96 - Update tests to ignore $ENV{CATALYST_HOME} where required
98 - Change repository metadata to point at git.
100 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Request::Upload
102 - Catalyst::Test: Fixes to action_ok, action_redirect and action_notfound
103 test functions to be better documented, and have better default test
106 - Update tests to ignore CATALYST_HOME env var.
108 5.89002 2011-03-02 11:30:00 (TRIAL release)
111 - Fix a couple of test failures caused by optional dependencies such as FCGI
115 - Simplified the API for getting a PSGI application code reference for a
116 Catalyst application for use in, for example, .psgi files. See
117 Catalyst::Upgrading for details.
119 5.89001 2011-03-01 15:27:00 (TRIAL release)
122 - Fixed command-line argument passing in Catalyst::Script::FastCGI.
124 - Fixed Catalyst::Engine::Stomp compatibility. Applications using
125 Catalyst::Engine::Stomp are believed to continue working without
126 any changes with the new Catalyst major version.
128 - Fixed issues auto-loading engine with older scripts.
131 - Catalyst::Engine::Wx is officially unsupported and BROKEN. If you
132 are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll
133 be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with
134 the new major version of Catalyst.
137 - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90
138 of Catalyst has been much improved.
140 5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00
143 - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of
144 $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value
145 to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start
147 Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined.
149 - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request
150 not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to
151 the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren)
153 - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly
156 - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number
157 of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for
158 PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path).
160 This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*)
161 type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements
165 - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to
166 allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally.
168 This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to
169 be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by
170 developers without changing their application code.
172 5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02
175 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
176 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
177 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
178 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
179 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.
181 - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty
182 body (e.g. doing a redirect)
184 5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release)
186 This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime.
190 - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have
191 one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything
192 the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen
193 through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI,
194 Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so
195 on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The
196 catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work.
198 If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or
199 anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine::
200 classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine
201 class, please tell us *now*.
203 5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
206 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
208 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
209 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
210 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
211 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
212 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
213 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
216 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
217 the Content-Length header appropriately)
218 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
219 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
220 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
221 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
222 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
223 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
225 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
226 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
227 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
228 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
229 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
230 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
231 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
232 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
235 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
236 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
238 5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
241 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
242 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
246 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
247 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
249 5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
252 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
254 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
255 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
257 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
259 5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
262 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
264 5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
267 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
268 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
269 load Utils before MyApp.pm
271 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
274 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
276 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
277 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
278 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
279 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
280 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
282 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
285 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
286 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
287 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
290 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
291 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
296 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
299 5.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
302 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
303 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
304 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
305 the default action creation.
308 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
309 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
310 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
311 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
312 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
313 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
314 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
317 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
319 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
321 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
323 5.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
326 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
327 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
328 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
329 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
330 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
333 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
334 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
337 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
338 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
339 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
340 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
342 5.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
345 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
346 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
347 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
348 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
349 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
350 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
351 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
352 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
355 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
356 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
357 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
359 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
360 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
361 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
362 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
365 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
366 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
369 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
370 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
373 5.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
376 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
377 the content type and content length if available.
379 Refactoring / optimizations:
380 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
381 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
382 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
383 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
384 screen as easy to write.
385 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
386 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
387 in parameter filtering (for example).
388 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
389 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
390 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
391 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
392 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
395 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
396 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
397 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
398 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
400 5.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
403 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
404 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
406 5.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
409 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
410 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
412 5.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
415 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
416 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
417 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
418 which should not be encoded.
419 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
420 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
422 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
423 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
424 any set of args/captures.
426 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
427 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
429 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
433 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
435 - Various minor typo fixes.
438 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
440 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
443 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
444 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
445 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
448 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
449 - Clarify documentation about debug
452 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
453 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
454 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
456 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
459 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
460 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
464 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
465 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
467 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
468 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
469 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
470 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
471 argv key in the options hash.
472 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
473 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
474 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
475 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
477 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
481 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
482 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
483 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
484 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
485 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
487 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
491 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
492 encoding test controller.
494 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
496 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
497 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
498 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
499 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
501 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
502 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
503 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
504 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
505 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
507 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
511 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
512 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
513 less packed with information of no use.
517 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
519 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
521 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
522 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
523 the single character '0'.
524 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
527 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
528 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
529 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
531 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
533 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
534 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
535 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
536 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
537 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
538 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
539 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
540 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
541 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
542 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
543 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
544 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
546 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
547 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
549 Refactoring / cleanups:
550 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
551 (and then skipped) normally.
554 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
556 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
559 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
560 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
561 on the old behaviour.
563 Refactoring / cleanups:
564 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
565 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
567 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
570 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
571 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
572 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
573 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
574 as there is no recommended alternative.
575 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
576 fallback for fully qualified component names.
577 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
578 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
579 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
580 startup, rather than with the first hit.
581 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
582 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
583 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
584 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
585 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
586 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
587 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
588 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
591 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
592 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
593 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
594 deprecated and causes warnings).
595 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
596 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
597 in the correct order.
598 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
600 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
601 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
602 is deprecated (RT#51489)
605 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
606 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
607 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
608 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
609 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
611 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
612 exception classes need to implement.
613 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
614 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
617 Refactoring / cleanups:
618 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
619 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
620 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
621 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
622 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
623 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
624 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
626 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
629 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
630 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
631 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
632 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
634 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
635 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
636 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
639 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
640 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
643 Refactoring / cleanups:
644 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
645 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
646 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
647 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
648 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
650 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
653 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
654 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
655 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
656 now loaded at most once + tests.
657 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
658 is returned to 'actions'.
659 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
660 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
662 Refactoring / cleanups:
663 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
664 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
667 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
668 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
669 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
671 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
674 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
675 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
678 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
681 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
682 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
683 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
685 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
688 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
689 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
690 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
692 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
695 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
696 application class immutable without that option.
697 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
698 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
700 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
701 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
702 (hopefully) future versions.
703 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
704 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
706 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
708 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
709 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
710 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
711 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
712 Request-URI of the Request-Line
714 Refactoring / cleanups:
715 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
716 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
717 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
718 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
719 known issues with 5.8.3.

721 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
724 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
725 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
726 for the controller namespace
727 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
728 expand_component_module (rjbs)
729 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
730 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
731 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
732 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
734 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
735 frontend port (jshirley)
736 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
740 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
741 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
742 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
743 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
746 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
749 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for

751 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
753 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
754 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
755 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
756 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
757 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
758 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
762 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
763 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
764 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
767 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
770 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
771 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
773 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
774 in some environments.
775 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
776 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
777 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
778 except works correctly with closures.
779 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
780 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
781 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
783 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
784 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
785 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
788 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
789 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
790 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
791 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
792 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
793 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
795 Refactoring / cleanups:
796 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
797 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
798 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
799 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
801 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
802 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
803 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
805 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
806 again in Catalyst::Test
808 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00

818 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
819 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
820 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
822 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
825 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
826 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
829 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
830 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
834 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
835 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
836 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
837 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
838 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
840 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
841 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
842 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application

854 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
856 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
857 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
858 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
859 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
860 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
861 to report 'Unknown Error'
862 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
863 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
864 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
865 parse_on_demand is on

878 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
879 Test::Aggregate is available.
880 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
881 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without

893 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
894 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
895 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
896 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
897 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
898 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
900 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
901 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
902 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.

937 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
938 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
939 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
940 tries to chain to itself
942 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
943 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
944 - Tests for this (radek)
945 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance

947 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
948 - Tests for this (radek)
949 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
950 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)

960 in production versions
961 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
962 the correct metaclass
963 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
964 the restarter process
965 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
966 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
968 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
969 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
970 immutable restart correctly.
972 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
973 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm

988 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
989 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
990 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
991 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
992 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
994 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
995 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.

1046 Catalyst::Dispatcher
1047 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
1048 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
1049 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
1050 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL

1073 - Fix bug causing Catalyst::Request::Upload's basename method
1075 - Test for this (Carl Franks)

1206 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
1207 throw warnings for two reasons:
1208 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
1209 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance
1211 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
1212 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
1213 method with a regex as the argument
