5 - $c->uri_for_action can now take an array of CaptureArgs and Args
6 If you have an action which has both, then you can now say:
7 $c->uri_for_action('/myaction', [@captures, @args]);
8 whereas before you had to say:
9 $c->uri_for_action('/myaction', [@captures], @args);
10 The previous form is still supported, however in many cases it is
11 easier for the application code to not have to differentiate between
14 - Catalyst::ScriptRunner has been enhanced so that it will now
15 load and apply traits, making it easier to customise.
16 - MyApp::TraitFor::Script (if it exists) will be applied to all
17 scripts in the application.
18 - MyApp::TraitFor::Script::XXXX will be applied to the relevant script
19 (for example MyApp::TraitFor::Script::Server will be applied to
20 MyApp::Script::Server if it exists, or Catalyst::Script::Server
25 - Document how to get the vhost of the request in $c->req->hostname
27 - Remove documentation showing Global / Regex / Private actionsi
28 as whilst these still exist (and work), they are not recommended.
29 - Remove references to the -Engine flag.
30 - Remove references to the deprecated Catalyst->plugin method
31 - Spelling fixed (and tested) throughout the documentation
32 - Note that wrapping the setup method will not work with method modifiers
33 and provide an alternative.
35 5.90004 - 2011-10-11 17:12:00
39 - Don't guess engine class names when setting an engine through
42 5.90003 - 2011-10-05 08:32:00
45 - Make default body reponses for 302s W3C compliant. RT#71237
47 - Fix issue where groups of attributes to override controller actions
48 in config would be (incorrectly) overwritten, if the parser for that
49 attribute mangled the contents of the attribute. This was found
50 with Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole, where Does => [ '+Foo' ]
51 would be transformed to Does => [ 'Foo' ] and written back to config,
52 whereas Does => '+Foo' would not be changed in config. RT#65463
56 - Set a matching Content-type for the redirect if Catalyst sets the
57 body. This is for compatibility with a WatchGuard Firewall.
59 Backward compatibility fixes:
61 - Restore (an almost empty) Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to the dist for old
62 scripts which explictly require Catalyst::Engine::HTTP
66 - Document Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication fails tests unless
67 you use the latest version with Catalyst 5.9
69 - Clarify that prepare is called as a class method
71 - Clarify use of uri_for further. RT#57011
73 5.90002 - 2011-08-22 21:44:00
74 Backward compatibility fixes:
76 - Deploying via mod_perl in some cases is fixed by making
77 Catalyst::EngineLoader detect mod_perl in more generic
79 https://github.com/miyagawa/Plack/issues/239
83 - Fix incorrect example in Catalyst::PSGI.
84 - Add note that if you are using the PSGI engine, then $c->req->env
85 needs to become $c->engine->env when you upgrade.
87 5.90001 - 2011-08-15 22:42
89 Realise that we accidentally chopped a digit off the versioning scheme
90 without anyone noticing, which is a bad thing.
92 Feel like a fool. Well done t0m.
96 5.9000 - 2011-08-15 22:18
98 See Catalyst::Delta for the major changes in this release.
100 Changelog since the last TRIAL release:
102 Backward compatibility fixes:
104 - Fix calling MyApp->engine_class to set the engine class manually.
106 - Re-add a $res->headers->{status} field to Catalyst::Test responses.
107 This _should_ be accessed with $c->res->code instead, but is here
108 for backward compatibility.
112 - Documentation which was in the now removed Catalyst::Engine::* classes
113 has been moved to Catalyst::Manual::Deployment
117 - nginx specific behaviour is removed as it is not needed with any
118 web server configuration I can come up with (recommended config is
119 documented in Catalst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI)
121 5.89003 2011-07-28 20:11:50 (TRIAL release)
123 Backward compatibility fixes:
125 - Application scripts which have not been upgraded to newer
126 Catalyst::Script::XXX style scripts have been fixed
130 - mod_perl handler fixed to work with application classes which have manually
133 - Scripts now force the Plack engine choice manually, rather than relying
134 on auto-detection, as the automatic mechanism gets it wrong if (for
135 example) Coro is loaded.
137 - Server script option for --fork --keepalive are now handled by loading
138 the Starman server, rather than silently ignored.
140 - Server script options for --background and --pid are now fixed by
141 using MooseX::Deamonize
143 - Plack middlewares to deal with issues in Lighttpd and IIS6 are now
144 automatically applied to applications and deployments which need them
145 (when there is not a user written .psgi script available).
146 This fixes compatibility with previous stable releases for applications
147 deployed in these environments.
151 - Catalyst::Test's remote_request method not uses Plack::Test to perform
155 - Added a Catalyst::PSGI manual page with information about writing a .psgi
156 file for your application.
158 - Catalyst::Uprading has been improved, and the status of old Catalyst
162 - Catalyst::Test's local_request function is now deprecated. You should just
163 use the normal request function against a local server instead.
165 5.80033 2011-07-24 16:09:00
168 - Fix Catalyst::Request so that the hostname accessor is not incorrectly
169 populated with 'localhost' if a reverse DNS lookup fails.
171 - Fix Path actions debug screen to display number of arguments
173 - Fix a regression that prevented configuring attributes for all actions using
174 ->config(actions => { '*' => \%attrs }) from working
176 - Append $\ in Catalyst::Response->print to more closely match
177 IO::Handle's behaviour.
179 - Fixed situation where a detach($action) from a forward within auto
180 was not breaking out correctly
182 - Fix the disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config setting
183 to also work in the $c->component method.
185 - Handle users setting cookies with an undef value by not trying to
186 output that cookie (rather than trying to do so and causing an exception
187 as previously happened). A warning is logged if this occurs in debug
189 - Update tests to ignore $ENV{CATALYST_HOME} where required
191 - Change repository metadata to point at git.
193 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Request::Upload
195 - Catalyst::Test: Fixes to action_ok, action_redirect and action_notfound
196 test functions to be better documented, and have better default test
199 - Update tests to ignore CATALYST_HOME env var.
201 5.89002 2011-03-02 11:30:00 (TRIAL release)
204 - Fix a couple of test failures caused by optional dependencies such as FCGI
208 - Simplified the API for getting a PSGI application code reference for a
209 Catalyst application for use in, for example, .psgi files. See
210 Catalyst::Upgrading for details.
212 5.89001 2011-03-01 15:27:00 (TRIAL release)
215 - Fixed command-line argument passing in Catalyst::Script::FastCGI.
217 - Fixed Catalyst::Engine::Stomp compatibility. Applications using
218 Catalyst::Engine::Stomp are believed to continue working without
219 any changes with the new Catalyst major version.
221 - Fixed issues auto-loading engine with older scripts.
224 - Catalyst::Engine::Wx is officially unsupported and BROKEN. If you
225 are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll
226 be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with
227 the new major version of Catalyst.
230 - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90
231 of Catalyst has been much improved.
233 5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00
236 - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of
237 $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value
238 to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start
240 Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined.
242 - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request
243 not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to
244 the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren)
246 - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly
249 - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number
250 of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for
251 PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path).
253 This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*)
254 type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements
258 - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to
259 allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally.
261 This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to
262 be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by
263 developers without changing their application code.
265 5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02
268 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
269 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
270 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
271 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
272 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.
274 - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty
275 body (e.g. doing a redirect)
277 5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release)
279 This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime.
283 - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have
284 one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything
285 the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen
286 through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI,
287 Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so
288 on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The
289 catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work.
291 If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or
292 anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine::
293 classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine
294 class, please tell us *now*.
296 5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
299 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
301 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
302 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
303 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
304 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
305 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
306 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
309 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
310 the Content-Length header appropriately)
311 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
312 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
313 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
314 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
315 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
316 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
318 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
319 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
320 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
321 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
322 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
323 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
324 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
325 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
328 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
329 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
331 5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
334 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
335 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
339 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
340 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
342 5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
345 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
347 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
348 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
350 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
352 5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
355 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
357 5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
360 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
361 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
362 load Utils before MyApp.pm
364 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
367 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
369 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
370 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
371 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
372 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
373 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
375 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
378 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
379 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
380 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
383 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
384 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
389 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
392 5.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
395 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
396 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
397 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
398 the default action creation.
401 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
402 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
403 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
404 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
405 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
406 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
407 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
410 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
412 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
414 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
416 5.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
419 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
420 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
421 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
422 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
423 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
426 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
427 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
430 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
431 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
432 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
433 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
435 5.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
438 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
439 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
440 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
441 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
442 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
443 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
444 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
445 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
448 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
449 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
450 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
452 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
453 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
454 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
455 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
458 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
459 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
462 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
463 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
466 5.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
469 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
470 the content type and content length if available.
472 Refactoring / optimizations:
473 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
474 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
475 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
476 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
477 screen as easy to write.
478 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
479 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
480 in parameter filtering (for example).
481 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
482 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
483 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
484 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
485 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
488 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
489 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
490 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
491 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
493 5.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
496 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
497 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
499 5.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
502 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
503 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
505 5.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
508 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
509 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
510 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
511 which should not be encoded.
512 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
513 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
515 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
516 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
517 any set of args/captures.
519 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
520 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
522 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
526 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
528 - Various minor typo fixes.
531 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
533 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
536 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
537 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
538 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
541 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
542 - Clarify documentation about debug
545 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
546 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
547 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
549 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
552 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
553 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
557 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
558 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
560 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
561 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
562 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
563 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
564 argv key in the options hash.
565 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
566 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
567 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
568 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
570 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
574 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
575 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
576 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
577 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
578 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
580 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
584 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
585 encoding test controller.
587 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
589 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
590 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
591 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
592 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
594 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
595 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
596 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
597 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
598 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
600 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
604 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
605 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
606 less packed with information of no use.
610 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
612 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
614 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
615 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
616 the single character '0'.
617 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
620 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
621 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
622 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
624 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
626 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
627 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
628 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
629 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
630 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
631 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
632 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
633 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
634 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
635 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
636 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
637 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
639 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
640 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
642 Refactoring / cleanups:
643 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
644 (and then skipped) normally.
647 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
649 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
652 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
653 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
654 on the old behaviour.
656 Refactoring / cleanups:
657 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
658 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
660 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
663 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
664 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
665 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
666 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
667 as there is no recommended alternative.
668 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
669 fallback for fully qualified component names.
670 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
671 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
672 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
673 startup, rather than with the first hit.
674 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
675 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
676 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
677 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
678 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
679 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
680 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
681 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
684 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
685 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
686 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
687 deprecated and causes warnings).
688 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
689 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
690 in the correct order.
691 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
693 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
694 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
695 is deprecated (RT#51489)
698 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
699 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
700 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
701 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
702 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
704 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
705 exception classes need to implement.
706 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
707 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
710 Refactoring / cleanups:
711 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
712 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
713 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
714 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
715 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
716 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
717 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
719 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
722 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
723 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
724 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
725 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
727 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
728 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
729 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
732 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
733 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
736 Refactoring / cleanups:
737 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
738 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
739 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
740 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
741 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
743 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
746 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
747 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
748 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
749 now loaded at most once + tests.
750 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
751 is returned to 'actions'.
752 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
753 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
755 Refactoring / cleanups:
756 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
757 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
760 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
761 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
762 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
764 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
767 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
768 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
771 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
774 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
775 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
776 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
778 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
781 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
782 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
783 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
785 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
788 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
789 application class immutable without that option.
790 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
791 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
793 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
794 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
795 (hopefully) future versions.
796 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
797 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
799 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
801 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
802 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
803 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
804 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
805 Request-URI of the Request-Line
807 Refactoring / cleanups:
808 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
809 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
810 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
811 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
812 known issues with 5.8.3.
813 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
814 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
817 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
818 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
819 for the controller namespace
820 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
821 expand_component_module (rjbs)
822 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
823 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
824 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
825 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
827 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
828 frontend port (jshirley)
829 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
833 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
834 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
835 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
836 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
839 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
842 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
843 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
844 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
846 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
847 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
848 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
849 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
850 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
851 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
855 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
856 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
857 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
860 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
863 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
864 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
866 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
867 in some environments.
868 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
869 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
870 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
871 except works correctly with closures.
872 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
873 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
874 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
876 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
877 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
878 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
881 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
882 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
883 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
884 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
885 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
886 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
888 Refactoring / cleanups:
889 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
890 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
891 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
892 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
894 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
895 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
896 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
898 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
899 again in Catalyst::Test
901 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
904 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
905 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
908 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
911 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
912 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
913 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
915 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
918 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
919 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
922 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
923 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
927 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
928 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
929 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
930 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
931 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
933 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
934 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
935 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
936 controller naming. (random)
937 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
938 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
939 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
940 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741

943 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
945 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
946 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
947 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
949 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
950 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
951 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
952 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
953 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
954 to report 'Unknown Error'
955 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
956 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
957 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
958 parse_on_demand is on
960 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
961 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
962 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
963 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
964 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from

966 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
967 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
968 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no

971 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
972 Test::Aggregate is available.
973 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
974 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
975 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
976 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
977 disabling functionality from base controllers.

986 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
987 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
988 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
989 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
990 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
991 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
993 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
994 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
995 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
996 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
997 configuration in your application.
999 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
1000 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
1001 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
1003 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple

1011 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
1013 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
1015 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
1016 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
1017 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
1019 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
1020 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
1021 warning on recent Moose versions.
1022 - Add delta documentation
1023 - Clean up recursion errors
1024 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
1025 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
1027 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
1028 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
1030 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
1031 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
1032 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
1033 tries to chain to itself
1035 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
1036 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
1037 - Tests for this (radek)
1038 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
1039 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
1040 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
1041 - Tests for this (radek)
1042 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
1043 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
1044 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
1045 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
1047 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
1048 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
1050 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
1052 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
1053 in production versions
1054 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
1055 the correct metaclass
1056 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
1057 the restarter process
1058 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
1059 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
1061 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
1062 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
1063 immutable restart correctly.
1065 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
1066 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm

1079 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
1080 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action

1082 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
1083 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
1084 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
1085 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
1087 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
1088 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
1089 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
1092 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
1093 - Add uri_with tests

1120 keep-alive requests.
1121 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
1122 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
1123 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
1124 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
1126 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
1127 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
1128 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)

1136 - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
1137 breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast
1138 - Remove unused action_container_class attribute from
1139 Catalyst::Dispatcher
1140 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
1141 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
1142 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
1143 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
1144 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
1145 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
1147 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
1148 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
1150 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
1151 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
1152 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
1154 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
1155 test sync for engines easier
1156 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
1157 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
1159 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
1160 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
1161 rather than the stringified ref.
1162 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup
1163 method is called, fixing issues with plugins which have their
1164 own new methods by inlining a constructor on MyApp
1165 - Test for this and method modifiers in MyApp
1166 - Fix bug causing Catalyst::Request::Upload's basename method
1168 - Test for this (Carl Franks)
1169 - Fix loading of classes which do not define any symbols to not
1170 die, as it didn't in 5.70

1176 Sewn together by from two patches provided by David E. Wheeler
1177 - Switch an around 'new' in Catalyst::Controller to a BUILDARGS
1178 method as it's much neater and more obvious what is going on

1180 attributes, and use if from ::Engine rather than deleting
1181 the key from the instance hash
1182 - Use handles on tree attribute of Catalyst::Stats to replace
1183 trivial delegation methods
1184 - Change the following direct hash accesses into attributes:
1185 Catalyst::Engine: _prepared_write
