3 5.90002 - 2011-08-22 21:44:00
4 Backward compatibility fixes:
6 - Deploying via mod_perl in some cases is fixed by making
7 Catalyst::EngineLoader detect mod_perl in more generic
9 https://github.com/miyagawa/Plack/issues/239
13 - Fix incorrect example in Catalyst::PSGI.
14 - Add note that if you are using the PSGI engine, then $c->req->env
15 needs to become $c->engine->env when you upgrade.
17 5.90001 - 2011-08-15 22:42
19 Realise that we accidentally chopped a digit off the versioning scheme
20 without anyone noticing, which is a bad thing.
22 Feel like a fool. Well done t0m.
26 5.9000 - 2011-08-15 22:18
28 See Catalyst::Delta for the major changes in this release.
30 Changelog since the last TRIAL release:
32 Backward compatibility fixes:
34 - Fix calling MyApp->engine_class to set the engine class manually.
36 - Re-add a $res->headers->{status} field to Catalyst::Test responses.
37 This _should_ be accessed with $c->res->code instead, but is here
38 for backward compatibility.
42 - Documentation which was in the now removed Catalyst::Engine::* classes
43 has been moved to Catalyst::Manual::Deployment
47 - nginx specific behaviour is removed as it is not needed with any
48 web server configuration I can come up with (recommended config is
49 documented in Catalst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI)
51 5.89003 2011-07-28 20:11:50 (TRIAL release)
53 Backward compatibility fixes:
55 - Application scripts which have not been upgraded to newer
56 Catalyst::Script::XXX style scripts have been fixed
60 - mod_perl handler fixed to work with application classes which have manually
63 - Scripts now force the Plack engine choice manually, rather than relying
64 on auto-detection, as the automatic mechanism gets it wrong if (for
65 example) Coro is loaded.
67 - Server script option for --fork --keepalive are now handled by loading
68 the Starman server, rather than silently ignored.
70 - Server script options for --background and --pid are now fixed by
71 using MooseX::Deamonize
73 - Plack middlewares to deal with issues in Lighttpd and IIS6 are now
74 automatically applied to applications and deployments which need them
75 (when there is not a user written .psgi script available).
76 This fixes compatibility with previous stable releases for applications
77 deployed in these environments.
81 - Catalyst::Test's remote_request method not uses Plack::Test to perform
85 - Added a Catalyst::PSGI manual page with information about writing a .psgi
86 file for your application.
88 - Catalyst::Uprading has been improved, and the status of old Catalyst
92 - Catalyst::Test's local_request function is now deprecated. You should just
93 use the normal request function against a local server instead.
95 5.80033 2011-07-24 16:09:00
98 - Fix Catalyst::Request so that the hostname accessor is not incorrectly
99 populated with 'localhost' if a reverse DNS lookup fails.
101 - Fix Path actions debug screen to display number of arguments
103 - Fix a regression that prevented configuring attributes for all actions using
104 ->config(actions => { '*' => \%attrs }) from working
106 - Append $\ in Catalyst::Response->print to more closely match
107 IO::Handle's behaviour.
109 - Fixed situation where a detach($action) from a forward within auto
110 was not breaking out correctly
112 - Fix the disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config setting
113 to also work in the $c->component method.
115 - Handle users setting cookies with an undef value by not trying to
116 output that cookie (rather than trying to do so and causing an exception
117 as previously happened). A warning is logged if this occurs in debug
119 - Update tests to ignore $ENV{CATALYST_HOME} where required
121 - Change repository metadata to point at git.
123 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Request::Upload
125 - Catalyst::Test: Fixes to action_ok, action_redirect and action_notfound
126 test functions to be better documented, and have better default test
129 - Update tests to ignore CATALYST_HOME env var.
131 5.89002 2011-03-02 11:30:00 (TRIAL release)
134 - Fix a couple of test failures caused by optional dependencies such as FCGI
138 - Simplified the API for getting a PSGI application code reference for a
139 Catalyst application for use in, for example, .psgi files. See
140 Catalyst::Upgrading for details.
142 5.89001 2011-03-01 15:27:00 (TRIAL release)
145 - Fixed command-line argument passing in Catalyst::Script::FastCGI.
147 - Fixed Catalyst::Engine::Stomp compatibility. Applications using
148 Catalyst::Engine::Stomp are believed to continue working without
149 any changes with the new Catalyst major version.
151 - Fixed issues auto-loading engine with older scripts.
154 - Catalyst::Engine::Wx is officially unsupported and BROKEN. If you
155 are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll
156 be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with
157 the new major version of Catalyst.
160 - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90
161 of Catalyst has been much improved.
163 5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00
166 - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of
167 $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value
168 to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start
170 Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined.
172 - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request
173 not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to
174 the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren)
176 - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly
179 - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number
180 of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for
181 PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path).
183 This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*)
184 type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements
188 - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to
189 allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally.
191 This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to
192 be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by
193 developers without changing their application code.
195 5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02
198 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
199 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
200 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
201 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
202 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.
204 - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty
205 body (e.g. doing a redirect)
207 5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release)
209 This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime.
213 - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have
214 one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything
215 the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen
216 through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI,
217 Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so
218 on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The
219 catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work.
221 If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or
222 anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine::
223 classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine
224 class, please tell us *now*.
226 5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
229 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
231 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
232 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
233 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
234 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
235 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
236 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
239 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
240 the Content-Length header appropriately)
241 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
242 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
243 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
244 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
245 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
246 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
248 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
249 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
250 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
251 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
252 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
253 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
254 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
255 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
258 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
259 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
261 5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
264 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
265 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
269 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
270 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
272 5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
275 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
277 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
278 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
280 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
282 5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
285 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
287 5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
290 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
291 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
292 load Utils before MyApp.pm
294 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
297 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
299 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
300 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
301 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
302 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
303 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
305 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
308 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
309 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
310 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
313 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
314 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
319 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
322 5.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
325 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
326 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
327 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
328 the default action creation.
331 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
332 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
333 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
334 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
335 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
336 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
337 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
340 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
342 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
344 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
346 5.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
349 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
350 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
351 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
352 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
353 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
356 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
357 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
360 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
361 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
362 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
363 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
365 5.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
368 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
369 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
370 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
371 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
372 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
373 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
374 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
375 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
378 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
379 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
380 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
382 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
383 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
384 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
385 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
388 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
389 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
392 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
393 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
396 5.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
399 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
400 the content type and content length if available.
402 Refactoring / optimizations:
403 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
404 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
405 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
406 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
407 screen as easy to write.
408 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
409 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
410 in parameter filtering (for example).
411 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
412 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
413 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
414 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
415 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
418 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
419 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
420 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
421 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
423 5.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
426 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
427 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
429 5.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
432 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
433 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
435 5.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
438 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
439 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
440 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
441 which should not be encoded.
442 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
443 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
445 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
446 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
447 any set of args/captures.
449 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
450 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
452 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
456 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
458 - Various minor typo fixes.
461 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
463 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
466 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
467 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
468 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
471 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
472 - Clarify documentation about debug
475 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
476 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
477 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
479 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
482 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
483 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
487 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
488 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
490 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
491 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
492 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
493 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
494 argv key in the options hash.
495 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
496 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
497 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
498 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
500 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
504 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
505 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
506 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
507 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
508 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
510 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
514 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
515 encoding test controller.
517 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
519 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
520 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
521 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
522 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
524 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
525 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
526 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
527 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
528 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
530 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
534 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
535 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
536 less packed with information of no use.
540 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
542 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
544 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
545 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
546 the single character '0'.
547 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
550 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
551 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
552 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
554 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
556 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
557 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
558 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
559 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
560 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
561 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
562 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
563 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
564 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
565 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
566 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
567 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
569 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
570 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
572 Refactoring / cleanups:
573 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
574 (and then skipped) normally.
577 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
579 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
582 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
583 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
584 on the old behaviour.
586 Refactoring / cleanups:
587 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
588 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
590 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
593 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
594 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
595 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
596 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
597 as there is no recommended alternative.
598 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
599 fallback for fully qualified component names.
600 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
601 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
602 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
603 startup, rather than with the first hit.
604 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
605 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
606 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
607 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
608 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
609 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
610 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
611 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
614 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
615 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
616 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
617 deprecated and causes warnings).
618 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
619 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
620 in the correct order.
621 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
623 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
624 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
625 is deprecated (RT#51489)
628 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
629 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
630 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
631 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
632 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
634 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
635 exception classes need to implement.
636 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
637 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
640 Refactoring / cleanups:
641 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
642 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
643 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
644 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
645 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
646 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
647 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
649 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
652 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
653 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
654 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
655 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
657 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
658 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
659 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
662 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
663 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
666 Refactoring / cleanups:
667 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
668 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
669 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
670 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
671 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
673 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
676 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
677 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
678 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
679 now loaded at most once + tests.
680 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
681 is returned to 'actions'.
682 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
683 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
685 Refactoring / cleanups:
686 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
687 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
690 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
691 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
692 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
694 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
697 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
698 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
701 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
704 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
705 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
706 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
708 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
711 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
712 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
713 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
715 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
718 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
719 application class immutable without that option.
720 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
721 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
723 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
724 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
725 (hopefully) future versions.
726 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
727 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
729 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
731 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
732 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
733 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
734 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
735 Request-URI of the Request-Line
737 Refactoring / cleanups:
738 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
739 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
740 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
741 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
742 known issues with 5.8.3.

744 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
747 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
748 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
749 for the controller namespace
750 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
751 expand_component_module (rjbs)
752 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
753 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
754 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
755 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
757 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
758 frontend port (jshirley)
759 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
763 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
764 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
765 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
766 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
769 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
772 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for

774 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
776 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
777 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
778 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
779 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
780 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
781 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
785 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
786 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
787 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
790 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
793 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
794 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
796 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
797 in some environments.
798 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
799 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
800 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
801 except works correctly with closures.
802 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
803 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
804 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
806 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
807 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
808 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
811 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
812 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
813 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
814 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
815 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
816 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
818 Refactoring / cleanups:
819 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
820 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
821 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
822 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
824 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
825 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
826 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
828 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
829 again in Catalyst::Test
831 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00

841 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
842 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
843 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
845 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
848 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
849 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
852 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
853 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
857 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
858 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
859 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
860 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
861 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
863 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
864 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
865 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application

877 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
879 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues

881 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
882 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
883 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
884 to report 'Unknown Error'
885 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
886 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
887 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
888 parse_on_demand is on
890 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
891 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
892 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.

901 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
902 Test::Aggregate is available.
903 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
904 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without

916 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
917 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
918 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
919 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
920 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
921 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
923 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
924 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
925 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.

930 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
931 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures

960 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
961 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
962 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
963 tries to chain to itself
965 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
966 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
967 - Tests for this (radek)
968 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance

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

985 the correct metaclass
986 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
987 the restarter process
988 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
989 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
991 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
992 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
993 immutable restart correctly.
995 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
996 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
997 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically

1011 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
1012 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
1013 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
1014 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
1015 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
1017 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
1018 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.

1057 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
1058 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)

1069 Catalyst::Dispatcher
1070 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors

1072 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
1073 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
1074 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
1075 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance

1078 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
1080 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
1081 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later

1085 test sync for engines easier
1086 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
1087 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
1089 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional

1235 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
1236 method with a regex as the argument
