4 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
5 encoding test controller.
6 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
7 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
8 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
9 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
11 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
12 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
13 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
14 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
18 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
19 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
20 less packed with information of no use.
23 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
25 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
27 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
28 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
29 the single character '0'.
30 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
33 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
34 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
35 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
37 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
39 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
40 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
41 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
42 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
43 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
44 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
45 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
46 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
47 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
48 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
49 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
50 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
52 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
53 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
55 Refactoring / cleanups:
56 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
57 (and then skipped) normally.
60 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
62 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
65 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
66 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
69 Refactoring / cleanups:
70 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
71 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
73 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
76 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
77 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
78 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
79 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
80 as there is no recommended alternative.
81 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
82 fallback for fully qualified component names.
83 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
84 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
85 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
86 startup, rather than with the first hit.
87 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
88 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
89 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
90 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
91 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
92 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
93 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
94 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
97 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
98 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
99 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
100 deprecated and causes warnings).
101 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
102 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
103 in the correct order.
104 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
106 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
107 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
108 is deprecated (RT#51489)
111 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
112 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
113 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
114 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
115 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
117 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
118 exception classes need to implement.
119 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
120 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
123 Refactoring / cleanups:
124 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
125 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
126 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
127 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
128 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
129 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
130 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
132 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
135 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
136 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
137 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
138 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
140 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
141 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
142 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
145 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
146 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
149 Refactoring / cleanups:
150 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
151 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
152 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
153 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
154 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
156 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
159 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
160 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
161 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
162 now loaded at most once + tests.
163 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
164 is returned to 'actions'.
165 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
166 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
168 Refactoring / cleanups:
169 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
170 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
173 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
174 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
175 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
177 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
180 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
181 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
184 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
187 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
188 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
189 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
191 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
194 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
195 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
196 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
198 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
201 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
202 application class immutable without that option.
203 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
204 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
206 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
207 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
208 (hopefully) future versions.
209 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
210 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
212 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
214 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
215 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
216 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
217 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
218 Request-URI of the Request-Line
220 Refactoring / cleanups:
221 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
222 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
223 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
224 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
225 known issues with 5.8.3.
226 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
227 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
230 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
231 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
232 for the controller namespace
233 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
234 expand_component_module (rjbs)
235 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
236 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
237 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
238 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
240 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
241 frontend port (jshirley)
242 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
246 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
247 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
248 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
249 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
252 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
255 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
256 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
257 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
259 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
260 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
261 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
262 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
263 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
264 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
268 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
269 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
270 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
273 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
276 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
277 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
279 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
280 in some environments.
281 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
282 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
283 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
284 except works correctly with closures.
285 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
286 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
287 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
289 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
290 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
291 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
294 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
295 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
296 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
297 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
298 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
299 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
301 Refactoring / cleanups:
302 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
303 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
304 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
305 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
307 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
308 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
309 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
311 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
312 again in Catalyst::Test
314 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
317 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
318 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
321 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
324 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
325 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
326 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
328 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
331 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
332 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
335 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
336 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
340 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
341 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
342 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
343 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
344 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
346 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
347 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
348 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
349 controller naming. (random)
350 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
351 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
352 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
353 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
354 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
356 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
358 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
359 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
360 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
362 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
363 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
364 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
365 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
366 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
367 to report 'Unknown Error'
368 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
369 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
370 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
371 parse_on_demand is on
373 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
374 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
375 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
376 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
377 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from

379 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
380 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
381 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
383 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
384 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
385 Test::Aggregate is available.
386 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
387 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
388 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
389 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
390 disabling functionality from base controllers.
391 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
392 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
393 incompatibility issues in some cases.

398 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
399 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
400 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
401 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
402 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
403 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
404 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
406 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
407 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
408 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
409 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
410 configuration in your application.
412 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
413 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
414 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
416 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
417 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
419 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
420 has been made private
421 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
422 the request parameters with undef + test
423 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
424 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
426 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
428 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
429 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
430 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
432 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
433 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
434 warning on recent Moose versions.
435 - Add delta documentation
436 - Clean up recursion errors
437 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
438 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
440 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
441 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
443 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
444 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
445 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
446 tries to chain to itself
448 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
449 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
450 - Tests for this (radek)
451 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
452 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
453 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
454 - Tests for this (radek)
455 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
456 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
457 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
458 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
460 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
461 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
463 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
465 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
466 in production versions
467 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
468 the correct metaclass
469 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
470 the restarter process
471 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
472 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
474 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
475 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
476 immutable restart correctly.
478 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
479 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
480 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
481 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
482 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test

484 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
485 - namespace::clean related cleanups
486 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
487 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
488 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
489 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
490 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
491 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
492 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
493 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
494 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
495 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
496 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
497 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
498 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
500 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
501 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
502 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
505 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
508 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00
509 - Disallow writing to config after setup

531 resolution uses regex fallback. (jhannah)
532 - Handle leading CRLF in HTTP requests sometimes sent by IE6 in
534 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
535 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
536 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
537 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
539 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
540 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
541 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)
542 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
543 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now
544 - Bump Moose dependency to fix make_immutable bug
545 - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller
546 - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix
547 test for Catalyst-Engine-Apache
548 - Bump version of MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast
549 - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
550 breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast
551 - Remove unused action_container_class attribute from
553 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
554 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
555 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
556 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
557 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
558 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
560 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
561 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
563 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
564 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
565 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
567 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
568 test sync for engines easier
