1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
5 - Make default body reponses for 302s W3C compliant. RT#71237
7 - Fix issue where groups of attributes to override controller actions
8 in config would be (incorrectly) overwritten, if the parser for that
9 attribute mangled the contents of the attribute. This was found
10 with Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole, where Does => [ '+Foo' ]
11 would be transformed to Does => [ 'Foo' ] and written back to config,
12 whereas Does => '+Foo' would not be changed in config. RT#65463
16 - Set a matching Content-type for the redirect if Catalyst sets the
17 body. This is for compatibility with a WatchGuard Firewall.
19 Backward compatibility fixes:
21 - Restore (an almost empty) Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to the dist for old
22 scripts which explictly require Catalyst::Engine::HTTP
26 - Document Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication fails tests unless
27 you use the latest version with Catalyst 5.9
28 - Clarify that prepare is called as a class method
30 5.90002 - 2011-08-22 21:44:00
31 Backward compatibility fixes:
33 - Deploying via mod_perl in some cases is fixed by making
34 Catalyst::EngineLoader detect mod_perl in more generic
36 https://github.com/miyagawa/Plack/issues/239
40 - Fix incorrect example in Catalyst::PSGI.
41 - Add note that if you are using the PSGI engine, then $c->req->env
42 needs to become $c->engine->env when you upgrade.
44 5.90001 - 2011-08-15 22:42
46 Realise that we accidentally chopped a digit off the versioning scheme
47 without anyone noticing, which is a bad thing.
49 Feel like a fool. Well done t0m.
53 5.9000 - 2011-08-15 22:18
55 See Catalyst::Delta for the major changes in this release.
57 Changelog since the last TRIAL release:
59 Backward compatibility fixes:
61 - Fix calling MyApp->engine_class to set the engine class manually.
63 - Re-add a $res->headers->{status} field to Catalyst::Test responses.
64 This _should_ be accessed with $c->res->code instead, but is here
65 for backward compatibility.
69 - Documentation which was in the now removed Catalyst::Engine::* classes
70 has been moved to Catalyst::Manual::Deployment
74 - nginx specific behaviour is removed as it is not needed with any
75 web server configuration I can come up with (recommended config is
76 documented in Catalst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI)
78 5.89003 2011-07-28 20:11:50 (TRIAL release)
80 Backward compatibility fixes:
82 - Application scripts which have not been upgraded to newer
83 Catalyst::Script::XXX style scripts have been fixed
87 - mod_perl handler fixed to work with application classes which have manually
90 - Scripts now force the Plack engine choice manually, rather than relying
91 on auto-detection, as the automatic mechanism gets it wrong if (for
92 example) Coro is loaded.
94 - Server script option for --fork --keepalive are now handled by loading
95 the Starman server, rather than silently ignored.
97 - Server script options for --background and --pid are now fixed by
98 using MooseX::Deamonize
100 - Plack middlewares to deal with issues in Lighttpd and IIS6 are now
101 automatically applied to applications and deployments which need them
102 (when there is not a user written .psgi script available).
103 This fixes compatibility with previous stable releases for applications
104 deployed in these environments.
108 - Catalyst::Test's remote_request method not uses Plack::Test to perform
112 - Added a Catalyst::PSGI manual page with information about writing a .psgi
113 file for your application.
115 - Catalyst::Uprading has been improved, and the status of old Catalyst
119 - Catalyst::Test's local_request function is now deprecated. You should just
120 use the normal request function against a local server instead.
122 5.80033 2011-07-24 16:09:00
125 - Fix Catalyst::Request so that the hostname accessor is not incorrectly
126 populated with 'localhost' if a reverse DNS lookup fails.
128 - Fix Path actions debug screen to display number of arguments
130 - Fix a regression that prevented configuring attributes for all actions using
131 ->config(actions => { '*' => \%attrs }) from working
133 - Append $\ in Catalyst::Response->print to more closely match
134 IO::Handle's behaviour.
136 - Fixed situation where a detach($action) from a forward within auto
137 was not breaking out correctly
139 - Fix the disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config setting
140 to also work in the $c->component method.
142 - Handle users setting cookies with an undef value by not trying to
143 output that cookie (rather than trying to do so and causing an exception
144 as previously happened). A warning is logged if this occurs in debug
146 - Update tests to ignore $ENV{CATALYST_HOME} where required
148 - Change repository metadata to point at git.
150 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Request::Upload
152 - Catalyst::Test: Fixes to action_ok, action_redirect and action_notfound
153 test functions to be better documented, and have better default test
156 - Update tests to ignore CATALYST_HOME env var.
158 5.89002 2011-03-02 11:30:00 (TRIAL release)
161 - Fix a couple of test failures caused by optional dependencies such as FCGI
165 - Simplified the API for getting a PSGI application code reference for a
166 Catalyst application for use in, for example, .psgi files. See
167 Catalyst::Upgrading for details.
169 5.89001 2011-03-01 15:27:00 (TRIAL release)
172 - Fixed command-line argument passing in Catalyst::Script::FastCGI.
174 - Fixed Catalyst::Engine::Stomp compatibility. Applications using
175 Catalyst::Engine::Stomp are believed to continue working without
176 any changes with the new Catalyst major version.
178 - Fixed issues auto-loading engine with older scripts.
181 - Catalyst::Engine::Wx is officially unsupported and BROKEN. If you
182 are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll
183 be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with
184 the new major version of Catalyst.
187 - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90
188 of Catalyst has been much improved.
190 5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00
193 - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of
194 $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value
195 to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start
197 Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined.
199 - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request
200 not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to
201 the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren)
203 - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly
206 - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number
207 of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for
208 PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path).
210 This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*)
211 type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements
215 - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to
216 allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally.
218 This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to
219 be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by
220 developers without changing their application code.
222 5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02
225 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
226 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
227 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
228 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
229 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.
231 - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty
232 body (e.g. doing a redirect)
234 5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release)
236 This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime.
240 - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have
241 one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything
242 the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen
243 through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI,
244 Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so
245 on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The
246 catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work.
248 If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or
249 anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine::
250 classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine
251 class, please tell us *now*.
253 5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
256 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
258 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
259 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
260 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
261 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
262 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
263 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
266 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
267 the Content-Length header appropriately)
268 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
269 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
270 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
271 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
272 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
273 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
275 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
276 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
277 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
278 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
279 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
280 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
281 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
282 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
285 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
286 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
288 5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
291 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
292 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
296 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
297 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
299 5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
302 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
304 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
305 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
307 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
309 5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
312 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
314 5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
317 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
318 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
319 load Utils before MyApp.pm
321 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
324 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
326 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
327 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
328 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
329 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
330 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
332 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
335 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
336 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
337 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
340 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
341 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
346 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
349 5.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
352 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
353 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
354 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
355 the default action creation.
358 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
359 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
360 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
361 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
362 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
363 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
364 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
367 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
369 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
371 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
373 5.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
376 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
377 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
378 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
379 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
380 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
383 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
384 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
387 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
388 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
389 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
390 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
392 5.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
395 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
396 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
397 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
398 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
399 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
400 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
401 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
402 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
405 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
406 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
407 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
409 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
410 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
411 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
412 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
415 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
416 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
419 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
420 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
423 5.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
426 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
427 the content type and content length if available.
429 Refactoring / optimizations:
430 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
431 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
432 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
433 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
434 screen as easy to write.
435 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
436 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
437 in parameter filtering (for example).
438 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
439 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
440 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
441 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
442 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
445 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
446 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
447 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
448 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
450 5.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
453 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
454 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
456 5.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
459 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
460 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
462 5.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
465 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
466 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
467 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
468 which should not be encoded.
469 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
470 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
472 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
473 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
474 any set of args/captures.
476 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
477 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
479 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
483 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
485 - Various minor typo fixes.
488 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
490 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
493 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
494 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
495 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
498 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
499 - Clarify documentation about debug
502 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
503 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
504 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
506 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
509 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
510 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
514 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
515 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
517 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
518 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
519 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
520 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
521 argv key in the options hash.
522 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
523 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
524 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
525 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
527 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
531 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
532 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
533 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
534 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
535 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
537 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
541 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
542 encoding test controller.
544 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
546 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
547 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
548 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
549 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
551 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
552 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
553 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
554 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
555 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
557 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
561 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
562 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
563 less packed with information of no use.
567 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
569 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
571 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
572 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
573 the single character '0'.
574 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
577 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
578 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
579 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
581 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
583 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
584 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
585 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
586 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
587 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
588 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
589 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
590 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
591 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
592 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
593 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
594 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
596 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
597 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
599 Refactoring / cleanups:
600 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
601 (and then skipped) normally.
604 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
606 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
609 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
610 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
611 on the old behaviour.
613 Refactoring / cleanups:
614 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
615 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
617 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
620 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
621 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
622 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
623 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
624 as there is no recommended alternative.
625 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
626 fallback for fully qualified component names.
627 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
628 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
629 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
630 startup, rather than with the first hit.
631 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
632 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
633 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
634 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
635 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
636 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
637 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
638 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
641 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
642 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
643 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
644 deprecated and causes warnings).
645 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
646 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
647 in the correct order.
648 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
650 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
651 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
652 is deprecated (RT#51489)
655 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
656 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
657 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
658 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
659 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
661 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
662 exception classes need to implement.
663 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
664 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
667 Refactoring / cleanups:
668 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
669 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
670 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
671 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
672 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
673 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
674 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
676 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
679 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
680 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
681 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
682 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
684 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
685 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
686 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
689 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
690 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
693 Refactoring / cleanups:
694 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
695 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
696 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
697 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
698 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
700 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
703 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
704 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
705 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
706 now loaded at most once + tests.
707 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
708 is returned to 'actions'.
709 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
710 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
712 Refactoring / cleanups:
713 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
714 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
717 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
718 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
719 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
721 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
724 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
725 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
728 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
731 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
732 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
733 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
735 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
738 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
739 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
740 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
742 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
745 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
746 application class immutable without that option.
747 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
748 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
750 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
751 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
752 (hopefully) future versions.
753 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
754 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
756 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
758 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
759 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
760 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
761 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
762 Request-URI of the Request-Line
764 Refactoring / cleanups:
765 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
766 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
767 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
768 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
769 known issues with 5.8.3.
770 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
771 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
774 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
775 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
776 for the controller namespace
777 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
778 expand_component_module (rjbs)
779 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
780 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
781 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
782 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
784 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
785 frontend port (jshirley)
786 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
790 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
791 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
792 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
793 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
796 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
799 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for

803 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
804 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
805 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
806 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
807 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
808 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
812 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
813 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
814 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
817 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
820 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
821 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
823 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
824 in some environments.
825 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
826 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
827 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
828 except works correctly with closures.
829 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
830 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
831 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
833 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
834 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
835 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
838 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
839 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
840 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
841 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
842 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
843 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
845 Refactoring / cleanups:
846 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
847 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
848 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
849 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
851 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
852 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
853 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
855 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
856 again in Catalyst::Test
858 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
861 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
862 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
865 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
868 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
869 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
870 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
872 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
875 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
876 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
879 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
880 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
884 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
885 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
886 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
887 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
888 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
890 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
891 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
892 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
893 controller naming. (random)
894 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
895 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78

904 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
906 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
907 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
908 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
909 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
910 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
911 to report 'Unknown Error'
912 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
913 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
914 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
915 parse_on_demand is on
917 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
918 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
919 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.

928 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
929 Test::Aggregate is available.
930 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
931 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without

943 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
944 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
945 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
946 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
947 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
948 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
950 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
951 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
952 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.

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

982 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
984 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
985 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
987 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
988 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
989 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
990 tries to chain to itself
992 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
993 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
994 - Tests for this (radek)
995 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
996 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
997 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
998 - Tests for this (radek)

1009 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
1010 in production versions

1012 the correct metaclass
1013 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
1014 the restarter process
1015 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
1016 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
1018 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
1019 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
1020 immutable restart correctly.
1022 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
1023 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm

1036 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
1037 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
1038 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
1039 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
1040 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
1041 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
1042 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
1044 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
1045 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
1046 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
1049 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.

1084 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
1085 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)

1096 Catalyst::Dispatcher
1097 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
1098 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
1099 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
1100 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL

1105 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
1107 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
1108 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
1109 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
1111 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
1112 test sync for engines easier
1113 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
1114 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
1116 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
1117 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
1118 rather than the stringified ref.
1119 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup

1123 - Fix bug causing Catalyst::Request::Upload's basename method
1125 - Test for this (Carl Franks)
