3 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
5 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
6 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
7 the single character '0'.
8 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
11 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
12 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
13 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
15 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
17 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
18 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
19 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
20 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
21 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
22 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
23 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
24 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
25 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
26 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
27 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
28 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
30 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
31 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
33 Refactoring / cleanups:
34 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
35 (and then skipped) normally.
38 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
40 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
43 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
44 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
47 Refactoring / cleanups:
48 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
49 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
51 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
54 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
55 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
56 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
57 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
58 as there is no recommended alternative.
59 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
60 fallback for fully qualified component names.
61 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
62 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
63 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
64 startup, rather than with the first hit.
65 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
66 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
67 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
68 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
69 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
70 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
71 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
72 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
75 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
76 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
77 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
78 deprecated and causes warnings).
79 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
80 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
82 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
84 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
85 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
86 is deprecated (RT#51489)
89 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
90 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
91 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
92 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
93 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
95 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
96 exception classes need to implement.
97 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
98 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
101 Refactoring / cleanups:
102 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
103 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
104 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
105 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
106 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
107 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
108 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
110 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
113 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
114 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
115 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
116 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
118 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
119 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
120 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
123 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
124 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
127 Refactoring / cleanups:
128 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
129 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
130 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
131 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
132 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
134 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
137 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
138 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
139 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
140 now loaded at most once + tests.
141 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
142 is returned to 'actions'.
143 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
144 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
146 Refactoring / cleanups:
147 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
148 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
151 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
152 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
153 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
155 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
158 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
159 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
162 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
165 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
166 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
167 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
169 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
172 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
173 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
174 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
176 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
179 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
180 application class immutable without that option.
181 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
182 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
184 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
185 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
186 (hopefully) future versions.
187 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
188 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
190 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
192 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
193 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
194 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
195 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
196 Request-URI of the Request-Line
198 Refactoring / cleanups:
199 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
200 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
201 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
202 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
203 known issues with 5.8.3.
204 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
205 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
208 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
209 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
210 for the controller namespace
211 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
212 expand_component_module (rjbs)
213 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
214 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
215 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
216 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
218 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
219 frontend port (jshirley)
220 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
224 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
225 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
226 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
227 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
230 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
233 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
234 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
235 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
237 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
238 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
239 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
240 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
241 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
242 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
246 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
247 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
248 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
251 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
254 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
255 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
257 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
258 in some environments.
259 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
260 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
261 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
262 except works correctly with closures.
263 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
264 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
265 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
267 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
268 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
269 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
272 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
273 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
274 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
275 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
276 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
277 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
279 Refactoring / cleanups:
280 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
281 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
282 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
283 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
285 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
286 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
287 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
289 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
290 again in Catalyst::Test
292 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
295 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
296 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
299 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
302 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
303 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
304 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
306 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
309 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
310 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
313 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
314 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
318 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
319 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
320 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
321 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
322 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
324 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
325 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
326 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
327 controller naming. (random)
328 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
329 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
330 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
331 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
332 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
334 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
336 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
337 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
338 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
340 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
341 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
342 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
343 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
344 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
345 to report 'Unknown Error'
346 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
347 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
348 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
349 parse_on_demand is on
351 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
352 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
353 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
354 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
355 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from

357 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
358 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
359 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
361 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
362 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
363 Test::Aggregate is available.
364 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
365 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
366 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
367 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
368 disabling functionality from base controllers.
369 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
370 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
371 incompatibility issues in some cases.

374 - Fix RT#43375 by sorting results before testing them
375 - Fixes for uri_for_action when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex
376 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
377 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
378 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
379 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
380 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
381 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
382 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
384 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
385 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
386 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
387 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
388 configuration in your application.
390 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
391 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
392 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
394 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
395 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
397 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
398 has been made private
399 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
400 the request parameters with undef + test
401 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
402 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
404 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
406 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
407 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
408 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
410 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
411 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
412 warning on recent Moose versions.
413 - Add delta documentation
414 - Clean up recursion errors
415 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
416 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
418 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
419 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
421 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
422 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
423 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
424 tries to chain to itself
426 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
427 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
428 - Tests for this (radek)
429 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
430 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
431 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
432 - Tests for this (radek)
433 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
434 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
435 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
436 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
438 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
439 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
441 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
443 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
444 in production versions
445 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
446 the correct metaclass
447 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
448 the restarter process
449 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
450 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
452 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
453 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
454 immutable restart correctly.
456 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
457 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
458 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
459 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
460 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test
461 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment
462 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
463 - namespace::clean related cleanups
464 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
465 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
466 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
467 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
468 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
469 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
470 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
471 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
472 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
473 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
474 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
475 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
476 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
478 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
479 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
480 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
483 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
486 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00
487 - Disallow writing to config after setup
488 - Disallow calling setup more than once

512 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
513 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
514 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
515 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
517 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
518 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
519 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)
520 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
521 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now
522 - Bump Moose dependency to fix make_immutable bug
523 - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller
524 - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix
525 test for Catalyst-Engine-Apache
526 - Bump version of MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast
527 - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
528 breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast
529 - Remove unused action_container_class attribute from
531 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
532 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
533 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
534 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
535 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
536 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
538 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
539 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
541 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
542 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
543 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
545 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
546 test sync for engines easier
547 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
548 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
550 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
551 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
552 rather than the stringified ref.
553 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup
554 method is called, fixing issues with plugins which have their
555 own new methods by inlining a constructor on MyApp
556 - Test for this and method modifiers in MyApp
557 - Fix bug causing Catalyst::Request::Upload's basename method
559 - Test for this (Carl Franks)
560 - Fix loading of classes which do not define any symbols to not
561 die, as it didn't in 5.70
563 - Bump MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast dependency
564 to force new version which fixes a lot of plugins
565 - Make log levels additive, and add documentation and tests
566 for the setup_log method, which previously had none.

696 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
697 method with a regex as the argument
