3 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
6 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
7 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
11 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
12 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
14 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
15 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
16 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
17 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
18 argv key in the options hash.
19 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
20 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
21 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
22 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
24 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
28 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
29 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
30 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
31 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
32 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
34 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
38 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
39 encoding test controller.
41 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
43 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
44 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
45 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
46 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
48 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
49 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
50 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
51 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
52 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
54 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
58 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
59 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
60 less packed with information of no use.
64 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
66 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
68 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
69 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
70 the single character '0'.
71 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
74 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
75 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
76 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
78 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
80 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
81 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
82 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
83 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
84 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
85 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
86 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
87 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
88 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
89 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
90 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
91 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
93 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
94 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
96 Refactoring / cleanups:
97 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
98 (and then skipped) normally.
101 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
103 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
106 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
107 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
108 on the old behaviour.
110 Refactoring / cleanups:
111 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
112 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
114 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
117 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
118 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
119 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
120 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
121 as there is no recommended alternative.
122 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
123 fallback for fully qualified component names.
124 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
125 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
126 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
127 startup, rather than with the first hit.
128 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
129 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
130 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
131 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
132 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
133 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
134 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
135 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
138 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
139 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
140 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
141 deprecated and causes warnings).
142 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
143 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
144 in the correct order.
145 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
147 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
148 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
149 is deprecated (RT#51489)
152 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
153 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
154 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
155 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
156 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
158 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
159 exception classes need to implement.
160 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
161 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
164 Refactoring / cleanups:
165 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
166 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
167 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
168 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
169 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
170 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
171 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
173 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
176 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
177 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
178 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
179 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
181 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
182 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
183 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
186 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
187 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
190 Refactoring / cleanups:
191 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
192 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
193 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
194 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
195 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
197 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
200 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
201 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
202 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
203 now loaded at most once + tests.
204 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
205 is returned to 'actions'.
206 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
207 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
209 Refactoring / cleanups:
210 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
211 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
214 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
215 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
216 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
218 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
221 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
222 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
225 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
228 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
229 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
230 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
232 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
235 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
236 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
237 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
239 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
242 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
243 application class immutable without that option.
244 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
245 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
247 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
248 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
249 (hopefully) future versions.
250 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
251 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
253 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
255 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
256 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
257 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
258 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
259 Request-URI of the Request-Line
261 Refactoring / cleanups:
262 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
263 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
264 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
265 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
266 known issues with 5.8.3.
267 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
268 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
271 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
272 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
273 for the controller namespace
274 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
275 expand_component_module (rjbs)
276 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
277 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
278 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
279 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
281 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
282 frontend port (jshirley)
283 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
287 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
288 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
289 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
290 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
293 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
296 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
297 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
298 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
300 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
301 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
302 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
303 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
304 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
305 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
309 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
310 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
311 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
314 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
317 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
318 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
320 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
321 in some environments.
322 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
323 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
324 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
325 except works correctly with closures.
326 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
327 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
328 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
330 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
331 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
332 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
335 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
336 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
337 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
338 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
339 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
340 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
342 Refactoring / cleanups:
343 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
344 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
345 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
346 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
348 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
349 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
350 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
352 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
353 again in Catalyst::Test
355 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
358 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
359 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
362 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
365 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
366 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
367 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
369 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
372 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
373 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
376 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
377 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
381 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
382 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
383 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
384 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
385 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
387 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
388 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
389 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
390 controller naming. (random)
391 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
392 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
393 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
394 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
395 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
397 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
399 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
400 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
401 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
403 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
404 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
405 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
406 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
407 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
408 to report 'Unknown Error'
409 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
410 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
411 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
412 parse_on_demand is on
414 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
415 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
416 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
417 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
418 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from
419 MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast.
420 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
421 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
422 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
424 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
425 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
426 Test::Aggregate is available.
427 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
428 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
429 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
430 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
431 disabling functionality from base controllers.
432 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
433 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
434 incompatibility issues in some cases.
435 - Additional tests for setup_stats method.
436 - Fix log levels in Catalyst::Log to be properly additive.
437 - Fix RT#43375 by sorting results before testing them
438 - Fixes for uri_for_action when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex
439 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
440 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
441 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
442 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
443 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
444 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
445 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
447 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
448 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
449 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
450 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
451 configuration in your application.
453 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
454 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
455 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
457 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
458 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
460 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
461 has been made private
462 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
463 the request parameters with undef + test
464 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
465 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
467 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
469 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
470 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
471 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
473 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
474 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
475 warning on recent Moose versions.
476 - Add delta documentation
477 - Clean up recursion errors
478 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
479 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
481 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
482 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
484 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
485 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
486 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
487 tries to chain to itself
489 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
490 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
491 - Tests for this (radek)
492 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
493 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
494 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
495 - Tests for this (radek)
496 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
497 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
498 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
499 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
501 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
502 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
504 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
506 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
507 in production versions
508 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
509 the correct metaclass
510 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
511 the restarter process
512 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
513 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
515 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
516 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
517 immutable restart correctly.
519 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
520 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
521 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
522 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
523 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test
524 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment
525 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
526 - namespace::clean related cleanups
527 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
528 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
529 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
530 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
531 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
532 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
533 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
534 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
535 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
536 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
537 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
538 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
539 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
541 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
542 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
543 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
546 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
549 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00
550 - Disallow writing to config after setup
551 - Disallow calling setup more than once

554 - Several documentation typo fixes
555 - Stop Makefile.PL from warning about versions that fixed a conflict
556 - Improved upgrading documentation
557 - Seed the RNG in each FastCGI child process (Andrew Rodland)
558 - Properly report dynamic bind port for the development server
560 - Use the way documented by IO::Socket::INET to get the error message
561 after trying to create a listening socket (Closes RT#41828)
562 - Don't ignore SIGCHLD while handling requests with the dev server
565 5.8000_05 2008-29-01 00:00
566 - Text::SimpleTable's go as wide as $ENV{COLUMNS} (jhannah)

572 resolution uses regex fallback. (jhannah)
573 - Handle leading CRLF in HTTP requests sometimes sent by IE6 in

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