4 - make predicate on ->io_fh private. Potentially breaking change, but this
5 method was never documented and is new so this should not be scary. If you
6 were using $request->has_io_fh, change to ->_has_io_fh (but please consider
7 a different way to do what you are doing...)
8 - make predicate on ->write_fh private. Potentially breaking change, but this
9 method was never documented and is new so this should not be scary. If you
10 were using $response->has_write_fh, change to ->_has_write_fh (but please consider
11 a different way to do what you are doing...)
12 - make predicate on $req->env private. Potentially breaking change, but this
13 method was never documented and is new so this should not be scary. If you
14 were using $request->has_env, change to ->_has_env (but please consider
15 a different way to do what you are doing...)
18 5.90049_006 - 2013-11-04
19 - Fixed case where test could fail when Starman was partly installed (n0body++)
20 - Fixed missing data information in previous release
22 5.90049_005 - 2013-10-31
23 - NEW FEATURE: New Controller action attribute 'Consumes', which allows you
24 to specify the content type of the incoming request. This makes it easier
25 to create actions that only handle certain content type POST or PUT, such
26 as actions that only handle JSON or actions that only understand classic
28 - NEW FEATURE: Request->body_data is now also populated from classic HTML
29 Forms using CGI::Struct to support nested data. For non nested data you
30 should use the classic ->body_parameters method.
31 - Removed PSGI $env keys that are added on the 'plack.request.*' namespace
32 since after discussion it was clear those keys are not part of the public
33 API. Keys removed: 'plack.request.query', 'plack.request.body',
34 'plack.request.merged' and 'plack.request.http.body'. Altered some test
35 cases to reflect this change.
37 5.90049_004 - 2013-10-18
38 - JSON Data handler looks for both JSON::MaybeXS and JSON, and uses
39 whichever is first (prefering to find JSON::MaybeXS). This should
40 improve compatibility as you likely already have one installed.
41 - Fixed a warning in the server script (bokutin++)
42 - We now populate various Plack $env keys in order to play nice with
43 downstream middleware or plack apps (and to reduce processing if
44 those keys already exist). Keys added:
47 - plack.request.merged
48 - plack.request.http.body
49 (NOTE: REMOVED IN 5.90049_005)
50 - If incoming input (from a POST or PUT) is not buffered, create the
51 buffer and set the correct psgi env keys to note this for downstream
52 psgi apps / middleware. This should solve some issues where Catalyst
53 sucks up the body input but its not buffered so downstream apps can't
54 read it (for example FCGI does not buffer). We now also try to make
55 sure the body content input is reset to the start of the filehandle
56 so that we are polite to downstream middleware /apps.
57 - NEW FEATURE: Catalyst::Response can now pull response from a PSGI
58 specification response. This makes it easier to host external Plack
59 applications under Catalyst. See Catalyst::Response->from_psgi_response
60 - NEW FEATURE: New configuration option 'use_hash_multivalue_in_request'
61 will populate $request methods 'parameters', 'body_parameters' and
62 'query_parameters' with an instance of Hash::MultiValue instead of a
63 HashRef. This is used by Plack and is intended to reduce the need to
64 write defensive logic since you are never sure if an incoming parameter
65 is a scalar or arrayref.
66 - NEW FEATURE: We now experimentally support Net::Async::HTTP::Server
67 and IO-Async based event loops. Examples will follow.
69 5.90049_003 - 2013-09-20
70 - Documented the new body_data method added in the previous release
71 - Merged from master many important bugfixes and forward compatiblity
73 - Use modern preferred method for Moose metaclass access and many other
74 small changes to how we use Moose for better forward compat (ether++)
75 - Killed some evil use of $@ (ether++)
76 - spelling fixes and documentation updates (ether++), (gerda++)
77 - use Test::Fatal over Test::Exception (ether++)
78 - Misc. test case fixes to modernize code (ether++)
79 - Added a first pass cpanfile, to try and make it easier to bootstrap
80 a development setup (ether++)
82 5.90049_002 - 2013-08-20
83 - Fixed loading middleware from project directory
84 - Fixed some pointless warnings when middleware class lacked VERSION
85 - NEW FEATURE: Declare global 'data_handlers' for parsing HTTP POST/PUT
86 alternative content, and created default JSON handler. Yes, now Catalyst
87 handles JSON request content out of the box! More docs eventually but
88 for now see the DATA HANDLERS section in Catalyst.pm (or review the test
91 5.90049_001 - 2013-07-26
92 - Declare PSGI compliant Middleware as part of your Catalyst Application via
93 a new configuration key, "psgi_middleware".
94 - Increased lowest allowed module version for Module::Pluggable to be 4.7 (up
95 from 3.4) to solve the fact this is no longer bundled with Perl in v5.18.
98 - Removed more places where an optional dependency shows up in the test
99 suite. Hopefully really fixed the unicode regression introduced in 5.90040
100 - reverted the change we introduced in 5.90040 where a unicode conversion
101 error warned instead of died. Now it dies again, like in the stand alone
103 - More work to make sure nothing happens with encoding unless you explicitly
105 - Code to hopefully fix an issue where file uploads using the unicode plugin
109 - Bug fix release to fix regressions introduced in previous. I would consider
110 this a likely upgrade and if you are having trouble with the previous I hope
111 this fixes all of them.
112 - Fix regression with the cored Unicode plugin that broke systems where you are
113 setting encoding type in an external configuration file
114 - Fixed circular dependency introduced when we cored the unicode plugin tests
115 - Fixed a longstanding problem with stats when locale uses , instead of . for
117 - Fixed some docs that didn't properly date the previous release.
120 ! Stricter checking of attributes in Catalyst::DispatchType::Chained:
121 1) Only allow one of either :CaptureArgs or :Args
122 2) :CaptureArgs() argument must be numeric
123 3) :CaptureArgs() and :Args() arguments cannot be negative
124 - Add Devel::InnerPackage to dependencies, fixing tests on perl 5.17.11
125 as it's been removed from core. RT#84787
126 - New support for closing over the PSGI $writer object, useful for working
128 - lets you access a psgix.io socket, if your server supports it, for manual
129 handling of the client - server communication, such as for websockets.
130 - Fix waiting for the server to start in t/author/http-server.t
131 - new config flag 'abort_chain_on_error_fix' that exits immediately when a
132 action in an action chain throws and error (fixes issues where currently
133 the remaining actions are processed and the error is handled at chain
135 - Cored the Encoding plugin. Now get unicode out of the box by just setting
136 $c->config->{encoding} = 'UTF-8'. BACKCOMPAT WARNING: If you are using
137 the Encoding plugin on CPAN, we skip it to avoid double encoding issues, so
138 you should remove it from your plugin list, HOWEVER the 'encoding' config
139 setting is now undef, rather than 'UTF-8' (this was done to avoid breaking
140 people's existing applications) so you should add the encoding setting to
141 you global config. There's some other changes between the stand alone
142 plugin and the cored version, if you use it be sure to see Catalyst::Upgrading
144 - minor documentation typo fixes and updates
147 ! POSSIBLE BREAKING CHANGE: Removed Regexp dispatch type from core, and put
148 it in an external package. If you need Regexp dispatch types you should
149 add "Catalyst-DispatchType-Regex" as a distribution to your build system.
150 - make $app->uri_for and related methods return something sane, when called
151 as an application method, instead of a context method. Now if you call
152 MyApp::Web->uri_for(...) you will get a generic URI object that you need to
154 - documentation updates around forwarding to chained actions.
155 - Fixed bug when a PSGI engine need to use psgix logger.
156 - Added cpanfile as a way to notice we are a dev checkout.
157 - Added 'x-tunneled-method' HTTP Header method override to match features in
158 Catalyst::Action::REST and in other similar systems on CPAN.
159 - smarter valiation around action attributes.
162 ! Catalyst::Action now defines 'match_captures' so it is no long considered
163 an optional method. This might break you code if you have made custom
164 action roles/classes where you define 'match_captures'. You must change
165 your code to use a method modifier (such as 'around').
166 - New match method "Method($HTTP_METHOD)" where $HTTP_METHOD in (GET, POST,
167 PUT, HEAD, DELETE, OPTION) and shortcuts in controllers called "GET, POST
168 PUT, HEAD, DELETE, OPTION"). Tests and documentation. Please note if you
169 are currently using Catalyst::ActionRole::MatchRequestMethods there may
170 be compatibility issues. You should remove that actionrole since the built
171 in behavior is compatible on its own.
172 - Initial debug screen now shows HTTP Method Match info
173 - security fixes in the way we handle redirects
174 - Make Catalyst::Engine and Catalyst::Base immutable
175 - Some test and documentation improvements
177 5.90019 - 2012-12-04 21:31:00
178 - Fix for perl 5.17.6 (commit g7dc8663). RT#81601
179 - Fix for perl 5.8. RT#61122
180 - Remove use of MooseX::Types as MooseX::Types is broken on perl5.8
183 5.90018 - 2012-10-23 20:55:00
184 - Changed code in test suite so it no longer trips up on recent changes to
187 5.90017 - 2012-10-19 22:33:00
188 - Change Catalyst _parse_attrs so that when sub attr handlers:
190 1) Can return multiple pairs of new attributes.
191 2) Get their returned attributes passed through the correct attribute handler.
193 e.g sub _parse_Whatever_attr { return Chained => 'foo', PathPart => 'bar' }
195 Will now work because both new attributes are respected, and the Chained
196 attribute is passed to _parse_Chained_attr and fixed up correctly by that.
198 - In Catalyst::Test, don't mangle headers of non-HTML responses. RT#79043
200 - Refactor request and response class construction to add methods
201 that roles can hook to feed extra parameters into the constructor
202 of request or response classes.
204 5.90016 - 2012-08-16 15:35:00
205 - prepare_parameters is no longer an attribute builder. It is now a method
206 that calls the correct underlying functionality (Bill Moseley++)
207 - Updated Makefile.PL to handle MacOXS tar
208 - Fix uri_for to handle a stringifiable object
209 - Fix model/view/controller methods to handle stringifiable objects
210 - Fix RT#78377 - IIS7 ignores response body for 3xx requests, which
211 causes (a different) response to be broken when using keepalive.
212 Fixed by applying Middleware which removes the response body and
213 content length that Catalyst supplies with redirects.
215 5.90015 - 2012-06-30 16:57:00
216 - Fix $c->finalize_headers getting called twice. RT#78090
217 - Fix test fails in Catalyst-Plugin-Session-State-Cookie. RT#76179
218 - Fix test fails in Catalyst-Plugin-StackTrace
219 - Fix test fails in Test-WWW-Mechanize-Catalyst
221 5.90014 - 2012-06-26 10:00:00
223 - Fix calling finalize_headers before writing body when using $c->write /
224 $c->res->write (fixes RT#76179).
226 5.90013 - 2012-06-21 10:40:00
228 - Release previous TRIAL as stable.
229 - We failed to note in the previous changelog that the Makefile.PL has been
230 improved to make it easier for authors to bootstrap a developer install
233 5.90013 - TRIAL 2012-06-07 20:21:00
236 - Merge Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole into Catalyst::Controller.
239 - Fix warnings in some matching cases for Action methods with
240 Args(), when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Chained
242 - Fix request body parameters to not be undef if no parameters
245 - Fix action_args config so that it can be specified in the
248 - Fix t/author/http-server.t on Win32
250 - Fix use of Test::Aggregate to make tests faster.
252 5.90012 - 2012-05-16 09:59:00
254 Distribution META.yml changes:
255 - author key is now correct, rather than what Module::Install
256 mis-parses from the documentation.
257 - x_authority key added.
260 - Fix request body parameters being multiply rebuilt. Fixes both
261 RT#75607 and CatalystX::DebugFilter
263 - Make plugin de-duplication work as intended originally, as whilst
264 duplicate plugins are totally unwise, the C3 error given to the user
265 is less than helpful.
267 - Remove dependence on obscure behaviour in B::Hooks::EndOfScope
268 for backward compatibility. This fixes issues with behaviour changes
269 in bleadperl. RT#76437
271 - Work around Moose bug RT#75367 which breaks
272 Catalyst::Controller::DBIC::API.
275 - Fix documentation in Catalyst::Component to show attributes and
276 calling readers, rather than accessing elements in the $self->{} hash
278 - Add note in Catalyst::Component to strongly disrecommend $self->config
279 - Fix vague 'checkout' wording in Catalyst::Utils. RT#77000
280 - Fix documentation for the 'secure' method in Catalyst:Request. RT#76710
282 5.90011 - 2012-03-08 16:43:00
285 - Simplification of the previous changes to Catalyst::ScriptRunner
286 We now just push $FindBin::Bin/../lib to the @INC path again, but
287 only if one of the dist indicator files (Makefile.PL Build.PL or
288 dist.ini) can be found in $FindBin::Bin/../$_
289 This avoids heuristics when the app is unloaded and therefore
290 works better for extensions which have entire applications in
292 - Bug fix to again correctly detect checkouts in dist zilla using
294 - --background option for the server script now only closes
295 STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR. This fixes issues with Log::Dispatch
296 and other loggers which open a file handle when
297 - Change incorrect use of File::Spec->catdir to File::Spec->catfile
298 so that we work on platforms which care about this (VMS?)
299 - Make it more obvious if our PSGI server doesn't pass in a response
302 5.90010 - 2012-02-18 00:01:00
305 - Fix the previous fix to Catalyst::ScriptRunner which was resulting
306 in the lib directory not being pushed onto @INC.
307 This meant perl ./script/myapp_server.pl failed, however
308 perl -Ilib ./script/myapp_server.pl would succeed.
310 5.90009 - 2012-02-16 09:06:00
313 - Fix the debug page so that it works as expected with the latest
316 - The Catalyst::Utils::home function is used to find if the application
317 is a checkout in Catalyst::ScriptRunner. This means that a non-existant
318 lib directory that is relative to the script install location is not
319 included when not running from a checkout.
321 - Fix dead links to cpansearch.perl.org to point to metacpan.org.
323 - Require the latest version of B::Hooks::EndOfScope (0.10) to avoid an
324 issue with new versions of Module::Runtime (0.012) on perl 5.10
325 which stopped Catalyst::Controller from compiling.
327 - In Catalyst::Test, don't mangle headers of non-HTML responses. RT#79043
329 5.90008 - TRIAL 2012-02-06 20:49:00
331 New features and refactoring:
332 - Much of the Catalyst::Engine code has been moved into Catalyst::Request
333 and Catalyst::Response, to be able to better support asynchronous web
334 servers such as Twiggy, by making the application engine more reenterant.
336 This change is as a prequel to full asynchronous support inside Catalyst
337 for AnyEvent and IO::Async backends, which allow highly scaleable streaming
338 (for applications such as multi-part XML HTTPRequests, and Websockets).
341 - This means that the $c->engine->env method to access the PSGI environment
342 is now deprecated. The accessor for the PSGI env is now on Catalyst::Request
343 as per applications which were using Catalyst::Engine::PSGI
345 Catalyst::Engine::PSGI is now considered fully deprecated.
347 - The private _dump method in Catalyst::Log is now deprecated. The dumper is
348 not pluggable and which dumper to use should be a user choice. Using
349 an imported Dump() or Dumper() function is less typing than $c->log->_dump
350 and as this method is unused anywhere else in Catalyst, it has been scheduled
351 for removal as a cleanup. Calling this method will now emit a stack trace
352 on first call (but not on subsequent calls).
354 Back compatibility fixes:
355 - Applications still using Catalyst::Engine::PSGI as they rely on
356 $c->request->env - this is now the provided (and recommended) way of
357 accessing the raw PSGI environment.
360 - Spurious warnings have been removed from the test suite
363 - Fix the display of PROJECT FOUNDER and CONTRIBUTORS sections in the
364 documentation. These were erroneously being emitted when the Pod
365 was converted to HTML for search.cpan.org
367 - Fix documentation for the build_psgi_app app method. Previously the
368 documentation advised that it provided the psgi app already wrapped
369 in default middleware. This is not the case - it is the raw app psgi
371 5.90007 - 2011-11-22 20:35:00
374 - Implement a match_captures hook which, if it exists on an action,
375 is called with the $ctx and \@captures and is expected to return
376 true to continue the chain matching and false to stop matching.
377 This can be used to implement action classes or roles which match
378 conditionally (for example only matching captures which are integers).
381 - Lighttpd script name fix is only applied for lighttpd versions
382 < 1.4.23. This should fix non-root installs of lighttpd in versions
384 - Prepare_action is now inside a try {} block, so that requests containing
385 bad unicode can be appropriately trapped by
386 Catalyst::Plugin::Unicode::Encoding
388 5.90006 - 2011-10-25 09:18:00
391 - A new 'run_options' class data method has been added to Catalyst.pm
392 This is used to store all the options passed by scripts, allowing
393 application authors to add custom options to their scripts then
394 get them passed through to the application.
397 - Clarify that if you manually write your own .psgi file, then optional
398 proxy support (via the using_frontend_proxy config value) will not be
399 enabled unless you explicitly apply the default middlewares from
400 Catalyst, or you apply the middleware manually.
403 - Fix issue due to perl internals bugs in 5.8 and 5.10 (not present in
404 other perl versions) require can pass the context inappropriately,
405 meaning that some methods of loading classes can fail due to void
406 context being passed throuh to make_immutable, causing it to not return
408 This bug caused loading Catalyst::Script::XXX to fail and is fixed
409 both by bumping the Class::Load dependency, and also adding an explicit
410 '1;' to the end of the classes, avoiding the context issue.
412 - Fix using_frontend_proxy support in mod_perl by using the psgi wrapped
413 in default middleware in mod_perl context, rather than the raw psgi.
415 5.90005 - 2011-10-22 13:35:00
419 - $c->uri_for_action can now take an array of CaptureArgs and Args
420 If you have an action which has both, then you can now say:
421 $c->uri_for_action('/myaction', [@captures, @args]);
422 whereas before you had to say:
423 $c->uri_for_action('/myaction', [@captures], @args);
424 The previous form is still supported, however in many cases it is
425 easier for the application code to not have to differentiate between
428 - Catalyst::ScriptRunner has been enhanced so that it will now
429 load and apply traits, making it easier to customise.
430 - MyApp::TraitFor::Script (if it exists) will be applied to all
431 scripts in the application.
432 - MyApp::TraitFor::Script::XXXX will be applied to the relevant script
433 (for example MyApp::TraitFor::Script::Server will be applied to
434 MyApp::Script::Server if it exists, or Catalyst::Script::Server
439 - Document how to get the vhost of the request in $c->req->hostname
441 - Remove documentation showing Global / Regex / Private actionsi
442 as whilst these still exist (and work), they are not recommended.
443 - Remove references to the -Engine flag.
444 - Remove references to the deprecated Catalyst->plugin method
445 - Spelling fixed (and tested) throughout the documentation
446 - Note that wrapping the setup method will not work with method modifiers
447 and provide an alternative.
449 5.90004 - 2011-10-11 17:12:00
453 - Don't guess engine class names when setting an engine through
456 5.90003 - 2011-10-05 08:32:00
459 - Make default body reponses for 302s W3C compliant. RT#71237
461 - Fix issue where groups of attributes to override controller actions
462 in config would be (incorrectly) overwritten, if the parser for that
463 attribute mangled the contents of the attribute. This was found
464 with Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole, where Does => [ '+Foo' ]
465 would be transformed to Does => [ 'Foo' ] and written back to config,
466 whereas Does => '+Foo' would not be changed in config. RT#65463
470 - Set a matching Content-type for the redirect if Catalyst sets the
471 body. This is for compatibility with a WatchGuard Firewall.
473 Backward compatibility fixes:
475 - Restore (an almost empty) Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to the dist for old
476 scripts which explictly require Catalyst::Engine::HTTP
480 - Document Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication fails tests unless
481 you use the latest version with Catalyst 5.9
483 - Clarify that prepare is called as a class method
485 - Clarify use of uri_for further. RT#57011
487 5.90002 - 2011-08-22 21:44:00
488 Backward compatibility fixes:
490 - Deploying via mod_perl in some cases is fixed by making
491 Catalyst::EngineLoader detect mod_perl in more generic
493 https://github.com/miyagawa/Plack/issues/239
497 - Fix incorrect example in Catalyst::PSGI.
498 - Add note that if you are using the PSGI engine, then $c->req->env
499 needs to become $c->engine->env when you upgrade.
501 5.90001 - 2011-08-15 22:42
503 Realise that we accidentally chopped a digit off the versioning scheme
504 without anyone noticing, which is a bad thing.
506 Feel like a fool. Well done t0m.
510 5.9000 - 2011-08-15 22:18
512 See Catalyst::Delta for the major changes in this release.
514 Changelog since the last TRIAL release:
516 Backward compatibility fixes:
518 - Fix calling MyApp->engine_class to set the engine class manually.
520 - Re-add a $res->headers->{status} field to Catalyst::Test responses.
521 This _should_ be accessed with $c->res->code instead, but is here
522 for backward compatibility.
526 - Documentation which was in the now removed Catalyst::Engine::* classes
527 has been moved to Catalyst::Manual::Deployment
531 - nginx specific behaviour is removed as it is not needed with any
532 web server configuration I can come up with (recommended config is
533 documented in Catalst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI)
535 5.89003 2011-07-28 20:11:50 (TRIAL release)
537 Backward compatibility fixes:
539 - Application scripts which have not been upgraded to newer
540 Catalyst::Script::XXX style scripts have been fixed
544 - mod_perl handler fixed to work with application classes which have manually
547 - Scripts now force the Plack engine choice manually, rather than relying
548 on auto-detection, as the automatic mechanism gets it wrong if (for
549 example) Coro is loaded.
551 - Server script option for --fork --keepalive are now handled by loading
552 the Starman server, rather than silently ignored.
554 - Server script options for --background and --pid are now fixed by
555 using MooseX::Deamonize
557 - Plack middlewares to deal with issues in Lighttpd and IIS6 are now
558 automatically applied to applications and deployments which need them
559 (when there is not a user written .psgi script available).
560 This fixes compatibility with previous stable releases for applications
561 deployed in these environments.
565 - Catalyst::Test's remote_request method not uses Plack::Test to perform
569 - Added a Catalyst::PSGI manual page with information about writing a .psgi
570 file for your application.
572 - Catalyst::Uprading has been improved, and the status of old Catalyst
576 - Catalyst::Test's local_request function is now deprecated. You should just
577 use the normal request function against a local server instead.
579 5.80033 2011-07-24 16:09:00
582 - Fix Catalyst::Request so that the hostname accessor is not incorrectly
583 populated with 'localhost' if a reverse DNS lookup fails.
585 - Fix Path actions debug screen to display number of arguments
587 - Fix a regression that prevented configuring attributes for all actions using
588 ->config(actions => { '*' => \%attrs }) from working
590 - Append $\ in Catalyst::Response->print to more closely match
591 IO::Handle's behaviour.
593 - Fixed situation where a detach($action) from a forward within auto
594 was not breaking out correctly
596 - Fix the disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config setting
597 to also work in the $c->component method.
599 - Handle users setting cookies with an undef value by not trying to
600 output that cookie (rather than trying to do so and causing an exception
601 as previously happened). A warning is logged if this occurs in debug
603 - Update tests to ignore $ENV{CATALYST_HOME} where required
605 - Change repository metadata to point at git.
607 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Request::Upload
609 - Catalyst::Test: Fixes to action_ok, action_redirect and action_notfound
610 test functions to be better documented, and have better default test
613 - Update tests to ignore CATALYST_HOME env var.
615 5.89002 2011-03-02 11:30:00 (TRIAL release)
618 - Fix a couple of test failures caused by optional dependencies such as FCGI
622 - Simplified the API for getting a PSGI application code reference for a
623 Catalyst application for use in, for example, .psgi files. See
624 Catalyst::Upgrading for details.
626 5.89001 2011-03-01 15:27:00 (TRIAL release)
629 - Fixed command-line argument passing in Catalyst::Script::FastCGI.
631 - Fixed Catalyst::Engine::Stomp compatibility. Applications using
632 Catalyst::Engine::Stomp are believed to continue working without
633 any changes with the new Catalyst major version.
635 - Fixed issues auto-loading engine with older scripts.
638 - Catalyst::Engine::Wx is officially unsupported and BROKEN. If you
639 are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll
640 be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with
641 the new major version of Catalyst.
644 - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90
645 of Catalyst has been much improved.
647 5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00
650 - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of
651 $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value
652 to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start
654 Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined.
656 - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request
657 not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to
658 the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren)
660 - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly
663 - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number
664 of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for
665 PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path).
667 This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*)
668 type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements
672 - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to
673 allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally.
675 This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to
676 be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by
677 developers without changing their application code.
679 5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02
682 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
683 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
684 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
685 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
686 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.
688 - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty
689 body (e.g. doing a redirect)
691 5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release)
693 This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime.
697 - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have
698 one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything
699 the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen
700 through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI,
701 Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so
702 on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The
703 catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work.
705 If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or
706 anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine::
707 classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine
708 class, please tell us *now*.
710 5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
713 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
715 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
716 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
717 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
718 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
719 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
720 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
723 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
724 the Content-Length header appropriately)
725 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
726 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
727 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
728 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
729 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
730 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
732 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
733 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
734 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
735 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
736 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
737 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
738 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
739 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
742 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
743 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
745 5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
748 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
749 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
753 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
754 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
756 5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
759 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
761 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
762 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
764 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
766 5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
769 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
771 5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
774 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
775 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
776 load Utils before MyApp.pm
778 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
781 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
783 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
784 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
785 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
786 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
787 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
789 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
792 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
793 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
794 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
797 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
798 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
803 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
806 5.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
809 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
810 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
811 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
812 the default action creation.
815 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
816 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
817 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
818 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
819 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
820 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
821 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
824 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
826 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
828 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
830 5.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
833 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
834 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
835 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
836 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
837 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
840 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
841 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
844 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
845 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
846 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
847 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
849 5.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
852 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
853 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
854 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
855 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
856 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
857 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
858 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
859 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
862 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
863 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
864 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
866 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
867 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
868 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
869 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
872 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
873 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
876 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
877 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
880 5.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
883 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
884 the content type and content length if available.
886 Refactoring / optimizations:
887 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
888 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
889 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
890 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
891 screen as easy to write.
892 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
893 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
894 in parameter filtering (for example).
895 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
896 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
897 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
898 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
899 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
902 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
903 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
904 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
905 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
907 5.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
910 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
911 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
913 5.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
916 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
917 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
919 5.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
922 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
923 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
924 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
925 which should not be encoded.
926 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
927 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
929 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
930 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
931 any set of args/captures.
933 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
934 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
936 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
940 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
942 - Various minor typo fixes.
945 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
947 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
950 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
951 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
952 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
955 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
956 - Clarify documentation about debug
959 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
960 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
961 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
963 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
966 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
967 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
971 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
972 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
974 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
975 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
976 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
977 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
978 argv key in the options hash.
979 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
980 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
981 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
982 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
984 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
988 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
989 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
990 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
991 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
992 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
994 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
998 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
999 encoding test controller.
1001 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
1003 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
1004 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
1005 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
1006 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
1008 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
1009 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
1010 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
1011 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
1012 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
1014 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
1018 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
1019 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
1020 less packed with information of no use.
1024 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
1026 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
1028 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
1029 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
1030 the single character '0'.
1031 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
1034 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
1035 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
1036 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
1038 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
1040 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
1041 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
1042 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
1043 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
1044 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
1045 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
1046 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
1047 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
1048 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
1049 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
1050 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
1051 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
1053 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
1054 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
1056 Refactoring / cleanups:
1057 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
1058 (and then skipped) normally.
1061 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
1063 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
1066 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
1067 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
1068 on the old behaviour.
1070 Refactoring / cleanups:
1071 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
1072 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
1074 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
1077 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
1078 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
1079 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
1080 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
1081 as there is no recommended alternative.
1082 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
1083 fallback for fully qualified component names.
1084 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
1085 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
1086 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
1087 startup, rather than with the first hit.
1088 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
1089 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
1090 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
1091 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
1092 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
1093 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
1094 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
1095 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
1098 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
1099 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
1100 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
1101 deprecated and causes warnings).
1102 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
1103 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
1104 in the correct order.
1105 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
1107 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
1108 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
1109 is deprecated (RT#51489)
1112 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
1113 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
1114 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
1115 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
1116 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
1118 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
1119 exception classes need to implement.
1120 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
1121 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
1124 Refactoring / cleanups:
1125 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
1126 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
1127 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
1128 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
1129 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
1130 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
1131 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
1133 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
1136 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
1137 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
1138 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
1139 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
1141 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
1142 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
1143 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
1146 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
1147 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
1150 Refactoring / cleanups:
1151 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
1152 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
1153 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
1154 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
1155 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
1157 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
1160 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
1161 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
1162 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
1163 now loaded at most once + tests.
1164 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
1165 is returned to 'actions'.
1166 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
1167 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
1169 Refactoring / cleanups:
1170 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
1171 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
1174 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
1175 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
1176 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
1178 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
1181 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
1182 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
1185 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
1188 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
1189 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
1190 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
1192 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
1195 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
1196 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
1197 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
1199 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
1202 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
1203 application class immutable without that option.
1204 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
1205 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
1207 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
1208 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
1209 (hopefully) future versions.
1210 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
1211 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
1212 variables (RT#48555)
1213 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
1215 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
1216 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
1217 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
1218 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
1219 Request-URI of the Request-Line
1221 Refactoring / cleanups:
1222 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
1223 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
1224 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
1225 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
1226 known issues with 5.8.3.
1227 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
1228 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
1231 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
1232 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
1233 for the controller namespace
1234 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
1235 expand_component_module (rjbs)
1236 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
1237 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
1238 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
1239 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
1241 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
1242 frontend port (jshirley)
1243 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
1247 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
1248 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
1249 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
1250 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
1253 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
1256 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
1257 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
1258 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
1260 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
1261 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
1262 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
1263 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
1264 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
1265 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
1269 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
1270 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
1271 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
1274 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
1277 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
1278 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
1280 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
1281 in some environments.
1282 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
1283 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
1284 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
1285 except works correctly with closures.
1286 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
1287 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
1288 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
1289 (jasonk in RT#42816)
1290 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
1291 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
1292 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
1295 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
1296 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
1297 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
1298 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
1299 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
1300 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
1302 Refactoring / cleanups:
1303 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
1304 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
1305 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
1306 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
1308 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
1309 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
1310 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
1312 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
1313 again in Catalyst::Test
1315 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
1318 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
1319 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
1322 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
1325 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
1326 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
1327 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
1329 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
1332 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
1333 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
1336 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
1337 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
1341 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
1342 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
1343 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
1344 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
1345 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
1347 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
1348 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
1349 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
1350 controller naming. (random)
1351 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
1352 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
1353 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
1354 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
1355 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
1357 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as

1361 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
1363 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
1364 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
1365 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
1366 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
1367 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
1368 to report 'Unknown Error'
1369 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
1370 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
1371 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
1372 parse_on_demand is on
1374 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
1375 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
1376 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
1377 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
1378 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from

1381 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
1382 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
1384 - Turn off test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
1385 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
1386 Test::Aggregate is available.
1387 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
1388 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
1389 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
1390 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
1391 disabling functionality from base controllers.

1393 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
1394 incompatibility issues in some cases.

1400 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
1401 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
1402 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
1403 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
1404 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
1405 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
1407 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
1408 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
1409 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
1410 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
1411 configuration in your application.
1413 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
1414 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one

1439 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
1441 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
1442 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
1444 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
1445 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
1446 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
1447 tries to chain to itself
1449 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
1450 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
1451 - Tests for this (radek)
1452 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
1453 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
1454 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
1455 - Tests for this (radek)
1456 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
1457 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
1458 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
1459 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
1461 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
1462 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with

1466 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
1467 in production versions
1468 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
1469 the correct metaclass
1470 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
1471 the restarter process
1472 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
1473 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
1475 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
1476 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
1477 immutable restart correctly.
1479 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
1480 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm

1492 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
1493 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
1494 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
1495 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
1496 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
1497 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
1498 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
1499 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
1501 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
1502 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.

1534 keep-alive requests.
1535 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
1536 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
1537 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
1538 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
1540 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
1541 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
1542 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)

1550 - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
1551 breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast
1552 - Remove unused action_container_class attribute from
1553 Catalyst::Dispatcher
1554 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
1555 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
1556 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
1557 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
1558 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
1559 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
1561 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
1562 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
1564 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
1565 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
1566 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
1568 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
1569 test sync for engines easier
1570 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
1571 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other

1580 - Fix bug causing Catalyst::Request::Upload's basename method
1582 - Test for this (Carl Franks)
1583 - Fix loading of classes which do not define any symbols to not
1584 die, as it didn't in 5.70

1587 to force new version which fixes a lot of plugins
1588 - Make log levels additive, and add documentation and tests
1589 for the setup_log method, which previously had none.
1590 Sewn together by from two patches provided by David E. Wheeler
1591 - Switch an around 'new' in Catalyst::Controller to a BUILDARGS
1592 method as it's much neater and more obvious what is going on

1712 5.7099_01 2008-06-25 22:36:00
1713 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
1714 throw warnings for two reasons:
1715 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
