# This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
+ - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
+ has been made private (t0m)
+ - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
+ the request parameters with undef + test (t0m)
+ - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
+ ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
+ (Oleg Kostyuk)
+ - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
+ (Emanuele Zeppieri)
+ - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
+ use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions (t0m)
+ - Fix all of t0m's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
+
+5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
+ - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
+ warning on recent Moose versions.
+ - Add delta documentation
+ - Clean up recursion errors
+ - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
+ - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
+ (Ian Wells)
+ - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated

+
+5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
+ - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
+ - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
+ tries to chain to itself (t0m)
+ - Tests for this
+ - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
+ CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with (t0m)
+ - Tests for this (radek)
+ - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
+ for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
+ with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly (t0m)
+ - Tests for this (radek)
+ - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
+ the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
+ - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
+ - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
+ present a list (t0m)
+ - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
+ test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
+ spurious warnings (t0m)
+ - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme (t0m)
+ - Test for this (t0m)
+ - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
+ in production versions (t0m)
+ - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
+ the correct metaclass (t0m)
+ - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
+ the restarter process (t0m)
+ - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
+ B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed (t0m)
+ - Tests for this (t0m)
+ - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
+ forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
+ immutable restart correctly. (t0m)
+ - Tests for this (t0m)
+ - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
+ with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm (t0m)
+ - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
+ (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
+ - Don't require C3 for the MRO test (rafl)
+ - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment (rafl)
+ - Remove useless column in chained action debug table. (rafl)
+ - namespace::clean related cleanups (rafl)
+ - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes (rafl)
+ - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action (t0m)
+ - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status (hdp)
+ - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
+ changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP. (rafl)
+ - Add $c->uri_for_action method. (hdp)
+ - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead. (rafl)
+ - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
+ attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
+ allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected. (rafl)
+ - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
+ and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
+ subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
+ syntax. (rafl/hdp)
+ - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
+ components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
+ This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
+ cases (t0m)
+ - Tests for this (t0m)
+ - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns. (t0m)
+ - Add uri_with tests (gphat)
+

+ instances (rafl)
+ - Several documentation typo fixes (rafl)
+ - Stop Makefile.PL from warning about versions that fixed a conflict
+ (t0m)
+ - Improved upgrading documentation (t0m, rafl)
+ - Seed the RNG in each FastCGI child process (Andrew Rodland)
+ - Properly report dynamic bind port for the development server (rafl)
+ (Closes RT#38544)
+ - Use the way documented by IO::Socket::INET to get the error message
+ after trying to create a listening socket (rafl) (Closes RT#41828)
+ - Don't ignore SIGCHLD while handling requests with the dev server
+ (rafl) (Closes RT#42962)
+

+ - Improve docs for visit (mateu)
+ - Add docs for finalize hook (dhoss)
+ - Added ru/ua translations to error page
+ - Improve the clarity and verbosity of the warning when component
+ resolution uses regex fallback. (jhannah)
+ - Handle leading CRLF in HTTP requests sometimes sent by IE6 in
+ keep-alive requests. (andyg)
+ - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
+ - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
+ parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
+ was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
+ it isn't a hashref (t0m)
+ - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
+ dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
+ Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL) (t0m)
+ - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
+ but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now (t0m)
+ - Bump Moose dependency to fix make_immutable bug (t0m)
+ - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller (t0m)
+ - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix
+ test for Catalyst-Engine-Apache (t0m)
+ - Bump version of MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast (t0m)
+ - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
+ breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast
+ - Remove unused action_container_class attribute from
+ Catalyst::Dispatcher (t0m)
+ - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors (t0m)
+ - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
+ Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
+ Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
+ (t0m)
+ - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
+ method on the requests HTTP::Body instance (t0m)
+ - Test for this (t0m)
+ - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
+ method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server (t0m)
+ - Test for this (t0m)
+ - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
+ postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
+ return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server. (t0m)
+ - Tests for this (t0m)
+ - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
+ test sync for engines easier (t0m)
- Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
- Catalyst::Component::Role::CaptureApp for easier reuse in other
+ Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
components (Florian Ragwitz)
- Make the test suites YAML dependency optional (Florian Ragwitz)
- Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
method is called, fixing issues with plugins which have their
own new methods by inlining a constructor on MyApp (t0m)
- Test for this and method modifiers in MyApp (t0m)
- - Fix Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication's authentication
- plugin backwards compatibility issues by fixing
- Class::Data::Inheritable compatibility (t0m)
- - Test for this (t0m)
- Fix bug causing Catalyst::Request::Upload's basename method
to return undef (t0m)
- Test for this (Carl Franks)
