7 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
8 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
9 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
10 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
11 configuration in your application. (t0m)
12 - Tests for this (t0m)

37 - Clean up recursion errors
38 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
39 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef

44 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
45 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
46 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
47 tries to chain to itself (t0m)
49 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
50 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with (t0m)
51 - Tests for this (radek)
52 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
53 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
54 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly (t0m)
55 - Tests for this (radek)
56 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
57 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
58 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
59 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
61 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
62 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
63 spurious warnings (t0m)
64 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme (t0m)
66 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
67 in production versions (t0m)

71 the restarter process (t0m)
72 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
73 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed (t0m)
74 - Tests for this (t0m)
75 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
76 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
77 immutable restart correctly. (t0m)
78 - Tests for this (t0m)
79 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises

95 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
96 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected. (rafl)
97 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
98 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
99 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
101 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
102 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
103 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex

140 it isn't a hashref (t0m)
141 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
142 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
143 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL) (t0m)

155 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors (t0m)

316 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
317 throw warnings for two reasons:
318 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
319 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance

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

366 - Allow multiple restart directories and added option to follow
