1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
5 - Make default body reponses for 302s W3C compliant. RT#71237
9 - Set a matching Content-type for the redirect if Catalyst sets the
10 body. This is for compatibility with a WatchGuard Firewall.
12 Backward compatibility fixes:
14 - Restore (an almost empty) Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to the dist for old
15 scripts which explictly require Catalyst::Engine::HTTP
19 - Document Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication fails tests unless
20 you use the latest version with Catalyst 5.9
21 - Clarify that prepare is called as a class method
23 5.90002 - 2011-08-22 21:44:00
24 Backward compatibility fixes:
26 - Deploying via mod_perl in some cases is fixed by making
27 Catalyst::EngineLoader detect mod_perl in more generic
29 https://github.com/miyagawa/Plack/issues/239
33 - Fix incorrect example in Catalyst::PSGI.
34 - Add note that if you are using the PSGI engine, then $c->req->env
35 needs to become $c->engine->env when you upgrade.
37 5.90001 - 2011-08-15 22:42
39 Realise that we accidentally chopped a digit off the versioning scheme
40 without anyone noticing, which is a bad thing.
42 Feel like a fool. Well done t0m.
46 5.9000 - 2011-08-15 22:18
48 See Catalyst::Delta for the major changes in this release.
50 Changelog since the last TRIAL release:
52 Backward compatibility fixes:
54 - Fix calling MyApp->engine_class to set the engine class manually.
56 - Re-add a $res->headers->{status} field to Catalyst::Test responses.
57 This _should_ be accessed with $c->res->code instead, but is here
58 for backward compatibility.
62 - Documentation which was in the now removed Catalyst::Engine::* classes
63 has been moved to Catalyst::Manual::Deployment
67 - nginx specific behaviour is removed as it is not needed with any
68 web server configuration I can come up with (recommended config is
69 documented in Catalst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI)
71 5.89003 2011-07-28 20:11:50 (TRIAL release)
73 Backward compatibility fixes:
75 - Application scripts which have not been upgraded to newer
76 Catalyst::Script::XXX style scripts have been fixed
80 - mod_perl handler fixed to work with application classes which have manually
83 - Scripts now force the Plack engine choice manually, rather than relying
84 on auto-detection, as the automatic mechanism gets it wrong if (for
85 example) Coro is loaded.
87 - Server script option for --fork --keepalive are now handled by loading
88 the Starman server, rather than silently ignored.
90 - Server script options for --background and --pid are now fixed by
91 using MooseX::Deamonize
93 - Plack middlewares to deal with issues in Lighttpd and IIS6 are now
94 automatically applied to applications and deployments which need them
95 (when there is not a user written .psgi script available).
96 This fixes compatibility with previous stable releases for applications
97 deployed in these environments.
101 - Catalyst::Test's remote_request method not uses Plack::Test to perform
105 - Added a Catalyst::PSGI manual page with information about writing a .psgi
106 file for your application.
108 - Catalyst::Uprading has been improved, and the status of old Catalyst
112 - Catalyst::Test's local_request function is now deprecated. You should just
113 use the normal request function against a local server instead.
115 5.80033 2011-07-24 16:09:00
118 - Fix Catalyst::Request so that the hostname accessor is not incorrectly
119 populated with 'localhost' if a reverse DNS lookup fails.
121 - Fix Path actions debug screen to display number of arguments
123 - Fix a regression that prevented configuring attributes for all actions using
124 ->config(actions => { '*' => \%attrs }) from working
126 - Append $\ in Catalyst::Response->print to more closely match
127 IO::Handle's behaviour.
129 - Fixed situation where a detach($action) from a forward within auto
130 was not breaking out correctly
132 - Fix the disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config setting
133 to also work in the $c->component method.
135 - Handle users setting cookies with an undef value by not trying to
136 output that cookie (rather than trying to do so and causing an exception
137 as previously happened). A warning is logged if this occurs in debug
139 - Update tests to ignore $ENV{CATALYST_HOME} where required
141 - Change repository metadata to point at git.
143 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Request::Upload
145 - Catalyst::Test: Fixes to action_ok, action_redirect and action_notfound
146 test functions to be better documented, and have better default test
149 - Update tests to ignore CATALYST_HOME env var.
151 5.89002 2011-03-02 11:30:00 (TRIAL release)
154 - Fix a couple of test failures caused by optional dependencies such as FCGI
158 - Simplified the API for getting a PSGI application code reference for a
159 Catalyst application for use in, for example, .psgi files. See
160 Catalyst::Upgrading for details.
162 5.89001 2011-03-01 15:27:00 (TRIAL release)
165 - Fixed command-line argument passing in Catalyst::Script::FastCGI.
167 - Fixed Catalyst::Engine::Stomp compatibility. Applications using
168 Catalyst::Engine::Stomp are believed to continue working without
169 any changes with the new Catalyst major version.
171 - Fixed issues auto-loading engine with older scripts.
174 - Catalyst::Engine::Wx is officially unsupported and BROKEN. If you
175 are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll
176 be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with
177 the new major version of Catalyst.
180 - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90
181 of Catalyst has been much improved.
183 5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00
186 - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of
187 $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value
188 to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start
190 Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined.
192 - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request
193 not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to
194 the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren)
196 - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly
199 - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number
200 of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for
201 PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path).
203 This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*)
204 type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements
208 - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to
209 allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally.
211 This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to
212 be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by
213 developers without changing their application code.
215 5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02
218 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
219 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
220 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
221 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
222 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.
224 - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty
225 body (e.g. doing a redirect)
227 5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release)
229 This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime.
233 - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have
234 one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything
235 the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen
236 through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI,
237 Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so
238 on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The
239 catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work.
241 If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or
242 anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine::
243 classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine
244 class, please tell us *now*.
246 5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
249 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
251 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
252 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
253 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
254 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
255 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
256 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
259 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
260 the Content-Length header appropriately)
261 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
262 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
263 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
264 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
265 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
266 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
268 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
269 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
270 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
271 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
272 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
273 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
274 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
275 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
278 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
279 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
281 5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
284 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
285 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
289 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
290 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
292 5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
295 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
297 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
298 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
300 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
302 5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
305 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
307 5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
310 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
311 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
312 load Utils before MyApp.pm
314 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
317 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
319 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
320 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
321 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
322 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
323 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
325 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
328 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
329 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
330 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
333 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
334 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
339 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
342 5.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
345 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
346 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
347 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
348 the default action creation.
351 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
352 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
353 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
354 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
355 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
356 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
357 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
360 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
362 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
364 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
366 5.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
369 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
370 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
371 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
372 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
373 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
376 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
377 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
380 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
381 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
382 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
383 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
385 5.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
388 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
389 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
390 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
391 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
392 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
393 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
394 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
395 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
398 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
399 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
400 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
402 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
403 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
404 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
405 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
408 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
409 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
412 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
413 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
416 5.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
419 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
420 the content type and content length if available.
422 Refactoring / optimizations:
423 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
424 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
425 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
426 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
427 screen as easy to write.
428 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
429 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
430 in parameter filtering (for example).
431 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
432 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
433 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
434 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
435 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
438 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
439 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
440 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
441 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
443 5.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
446 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
447 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
449 5.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
452 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
453 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
455 5.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
458 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
459 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
460 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
461 which should not be encoded.
462 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
463 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
465 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
466 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
467 any set of args/captures.
469 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
470 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
472 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
476 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
478 - Various minor typo fixes.
481 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
483 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
486 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
487 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
488 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
491 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
492 - Clarify documentation about debug
495 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
496 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
497 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
499 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
502 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
503 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
507 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
508 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
510 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
511 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
512 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
513 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
514 argv key in the options hash.
515 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
516 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
517 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
518 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
520 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
524 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
525 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
526 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
527 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
528 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
530 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
534 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
535 encoding test controller.
537 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
539 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
540 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
541 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
542 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
544 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
545 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
546 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
547 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
548 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
550 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
554 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
555 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
556 less packed with information of no use.
560 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
562 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
564 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
565 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
566 the single character '0'.
567 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
570 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
571 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
572 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
574 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
576 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
577 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
578 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
579 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
580 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
581 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
582 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
583 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
584 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
585 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
586 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
587 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
589 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
590 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
592 Refactoring / cleanups:
593 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
594 (and then skipped) normally.
597 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
599 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
602 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
603 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
604 on the old behaviour.
606 Refactoring / cleanups:
607 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
608 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
610 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
613 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
614 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
615 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
616 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
617 as there is no recommended alternative.
618 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
619 fallback for fully qualified component names.
620 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
621 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
622 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
623 startup, rather than with the first hit.
624 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
625 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
626 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
627 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
628 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
629 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
630 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
631 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
634 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
635 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
636 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
637 deprecated and causes warnings).
638 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
639 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
640 in the correct order.
641 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
643 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
644 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
645 is deprecated (RT#51489)
648 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
649 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
650 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
651 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
652 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
654 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
655 exception classes need to implement.
656 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
657 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
660 Refactoring / cleanups:
661 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
662 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
663 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
664 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
665 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
666 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
667 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
669 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
672 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
673 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
674 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
675 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
677 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
678 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
679 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
682 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
683 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
686 Refactoring / cleanups:
687 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
688 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
689 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
690 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
691 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
693 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
696 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
697 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
698 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
699 now loaded at most once + tests.
700 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
701 is returned to 'actions'.
702 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
703 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
705 Refactoring / cleanups:
706 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
707 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
710 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
711 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
712 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
714 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
717 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
718 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
721 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
724 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
725 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
726 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
728 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
731 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
732 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
733 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
735 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
738 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
739 application class immutable without that option.
740 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
741 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
743 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
744 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
745 (hopefully) future versions.
746 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
747 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
749 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
751 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
752 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
753 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
754 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
755 Request-URI of the Request-Line
757 Refactoring / cleanups:
758 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
759 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
760 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
761 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
762 known issues with 5.8.3.
763 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
764 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
767 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
768 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
769 for the controller namespace
770 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
771 expand_component_module (rjbs)
772 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
773 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
774 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
775 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
777 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
778 frontend port (jshirley)
779 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
783 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
784 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
785 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
786 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
789 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
792 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
793 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
794 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
796 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
797 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
798 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
799 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
800 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
801 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
805 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
806 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
807 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
810 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
813 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
814 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
816 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
817 in some environments.
818 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
819 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
820 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
821 except works correctly with closures.
822 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
823 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
824 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
826 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
827 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
828 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
831 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
832 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
833 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
834 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
835 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
836 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
838 Refactoring / cleanups:
839 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
840 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
841 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
842 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
844 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
845 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
846 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
848 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
849 again in Catalyst::Test
851 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
854 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
855 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
858 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
861 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
862 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
863 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
865 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
868 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
869 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
872 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
873 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
877 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
878 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
879 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
880 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
881 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
883 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
884 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
885 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
886 controller naming. (random)
887 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
888 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
889 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
890 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
891 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
893 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
895 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
896 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
897 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
899 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
900 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
901 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
902 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
903 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
904 to report 'Unknown Error'
905 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
906 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
907 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
908 parse_on_demand is on
910 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
911 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
912 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
913 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
914 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from

921 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
922 Test::Aggregate is available.
923 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
924 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
925 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a

936 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
937 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
938 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
939 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
940 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
941 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
943 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
944 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
945 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
946 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
947 configuration in your application.
949 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
950 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
951 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
953 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple

961 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
963 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
965 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
966 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions

974 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
975 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
977 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
978 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
980 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
981 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
982 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
983 tries to chain to itself
985 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
986 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
987 - Tests for this (radek)
988 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
989 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
990 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
991 - Tests for this (radek)

1005 the correct metaclass
1006 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
1007 the restarter process
1008 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
1009 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
1011 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
1012 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
1013 immutable restart correctly.
1015 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
1016 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
1017 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically

1029 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
1030 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
1031 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
1032 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
1033 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
1034 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
1035 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
1037 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
1038 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
1039 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
1042 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
1043 - Add uri_with tests

1072 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
1073 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter

1077 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
1078 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)

1089 Catalyst::Dispatcher
1090 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
1091 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
1092 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
1093 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
1094 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
1095 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
1097 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
1098 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
1100 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
1101 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
1102 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
1104 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
1105 test sync for engines easier
1106 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
1107 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
1109 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
1110 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
1111 rather than the stringified ref.
1112 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup
1113 method is called, fixing issues with plugins which have their
1114 own new methods by inlining a constructor on MyApp

1116 - Fix bug causing Catalyst::Request::Upload's basename method
1118 - Test for this (Carl Franks)

1255 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
1256 method with a regex as the argument
