4 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
5 encoding test controller.
6 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
7 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
8 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
9 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
11 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
12 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
13 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
14 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
16 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
19 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
20 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
21 less packed with information of no use.
24 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
26 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
28 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
29 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
30 the single character '0'.
31 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
34 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
35 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
36 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
38 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
40 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
41 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
42 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
43 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
44 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
45 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
46 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
47 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
48 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
49 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
50 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
51 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
53 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
54 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
56 Refactoring / cleanups:
57 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
58 (and then skipped) normally.
61 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
63 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
66 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
67 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
70 Refactoring / cleanups:
71 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
72 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
74 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
77 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
78 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
79 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
80 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
81 as there is no recommended alternative.
82 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
83 fallback for fully qualified component names.
84 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
85 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
86 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
87 startup, rather than with the first hit.
88 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
89 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
90 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
91 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
92 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
93 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
94 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
95 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
98 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
99 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
100 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
101 deprecated and causes warnings).
102 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
103 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
104 in the correct order.
105 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
107 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
108 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
109 is deprecated (RT#51489)
112 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
113 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
114 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
115 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
116 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
118 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
119 exception classes need to implement.
120 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
121 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
124 Refactoring / cleanups:
125 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
126 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
127 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
128 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
129 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
130 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
131 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
133 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
136 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
137 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
138 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
139 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
141 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
142 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
143 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
146 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
147 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
150 Refactoring / cleanups:
151 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
152 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
153 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
154 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
155 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
157 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
160 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
161 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
162 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
163 now loaded at most once + tests.
164 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
165 is returned to 'actions'.
166 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
167 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
169 Refactoring / cleanups:
170 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
171 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
174 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
175 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
176 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
178 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
181 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
182 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
185 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
188 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
189 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
190 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
192 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
195 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
196 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
197 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
199 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
202 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
203 application class immutable without that option.
204 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
205 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
207 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
208 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
209 (hopefully) future versions.
210 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
211 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
213 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
215 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
216 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
217 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
218 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
219 Request-URI of the Request-Line
221 Refactoring / cleanups:
222 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
223 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
224 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
225 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
226 known issues with 5.8.3.
227 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
228 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
231 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
232 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
233 for the controller namespace
234 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
235 expand_component_module (rjbs)
236 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
237 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
238 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
239 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
241 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
242 frontend port (jshirley)
243 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
247 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
248 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
249 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
250 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
253 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
256 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
257 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
258 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
260 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
261 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
262 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
263 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
264 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
265 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
269 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
270 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
271 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
274 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
277 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
278 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
280 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
281 in some environments.
282 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
283 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
284 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
285 except works correctly with closures.
286 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
287 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
288 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
290 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
291 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
292 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
295 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
296 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
297 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
298 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
299 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
300 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
302 Refactoring / cleanups:
303 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
304 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
305 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
306 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
308 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
309 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
310 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
312 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
313 again in Catalyst::Test
315 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
318 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
319 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
322 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
325 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
326 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
327 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
329 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
332 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
333 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
336 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
337 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
341 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
342 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
343 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
344 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
345 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
347 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
348 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
349 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
350 controller naming. (random)
351 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
352 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
353 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
354 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
355 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
357 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
359 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
360 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
361 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
363 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
364 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
365 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
366 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
367 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
368 to report 'Unknown Error'
369 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
370 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
371 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
372 parse_on_demand is on
374 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
375 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
376 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
377 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
378 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from
379 MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast.
380 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
381 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
382 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
384 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
385 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
386 Test::Aggregate is available.
387 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
388 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
389 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
390 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
391 disabling functionality from base controllers.
392 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
393 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
394 incompatibility issues in some cases.

399 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
400 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
401 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
402 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
403 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
404 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
405 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
407 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
408 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
409 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
410 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
411 configuration in your application.
413 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
414 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
415 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
417 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
418 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
420 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
421 has been made private
422 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
423 the request parameters with undef + test
424 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
425 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
427 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
429 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
430 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
431 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
433 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
434 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
435 warning on recent Moose versions.
436 - Add delta documentation
437 - Clean up recursion errors
438 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
439 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
441 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
442 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
444 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
445 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
446 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
447 tries to chain to itself
449 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
450 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
451 - Tests for this (radek)
452 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
453 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
454 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
455 - Tests for this (radek)
456 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
457 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
458 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
459 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
461 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
462 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
464 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
466 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
467 in production versions
468 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
469 the correct metaclass
470 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
471 the restarter process
472 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
473 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
475 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
476 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
477 immutable restart correctly.
479 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
480 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
481 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
482 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
483 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test

485 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
486 - namespace::clean related cleanups
487 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
488 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
489 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
490 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
491 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
492 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
493 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
494 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
495 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
496 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
497 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
498 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
499 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
501 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
502 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
503 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
506 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
509 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00

535 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
536 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
537 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
538 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
540 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
541 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
542 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)
543 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
544 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now
545 - Bump Moose dependency to fix make_immutable bug
546 - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller
547 - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix
548 test for Catalyst-Engine-Apache
549 - Bump version of MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast
550 - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
551 breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast
552 - Remove unused action_container_class attribute from
554 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
555 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
556 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
557 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
558 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
559 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
561 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
562 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
564 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
565 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
566 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.

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