-TBD pre 5.8000_04 dev release:
+# Known Bugs:
- - Simple test for NEXT compat in core (t0m).
+ - Bug ->go or ->visit causes actions which have Args or CaptureArgs called
+ twice when called via ->go or ->visit.
- - Looks like stash is not available during prepare_path when running under
- Catalyst::Test.. Run MojoMojo's t/01app.t and it will explode with
- "Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference" - test case for core
- + fix maybe (marcus)
+ Test app: http://github.com/bobtfish/catalyst-app-bug-go_chain/tree/master
----
+ - Bricas' Exception blog post
- - Common engine test failures, look into and get tests into core.
+ http://bricas.vox.com/library/post/catalyst-exceptionclass.html
- - Catalyst-Plugin-Authorization-ACL, Can't locate object method "tree" via package "Catalyst::Dispatcher", fix the plugin as tree was never a public method.
+ Broken by recent exception refactoring
- - Catalyst-Model-Akismet, incorrectly inherits from Catalyst::Component::InstancePerContext, should compose as a role, fix the module.
+# Compatibility warnings to add:
- - CatalystX-Imports, Class::MOP doesn't consider anon subs in the symbol table as methods, tests + fix?
+ - $self->config should warn as config should only ever be called as a
+ class method.
- - Catalyst::Plugin::Cache::Curried
- - Catalyst::Controller::WrapCGI
- - Both import 'meta' into controller package - mst thinks this can be fixed?.
- but @marcus> and the generated accessors even call $_[0]->meta, so I don't think we can remove it.
- . Add a test for this in core.
- . Fix core to use CMOP to look up metaclass, rather than ->meta method, and
- namespace::clean the meta method out, fix generated accessors to do the same?
+# Proposed functionality / feature additions:
- - MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast
- - Tests for uses of C::A::F from Catalyst repos. - t0m
- - New release once these are done.
+## Log setup needs to be less lame
- - Update Test suite to not assume MyApp ISA Controller
- - After that set up attr handlers that will output helpful error messages when you do it as well as how to fix it. (done already?)
-
- - Comments marked /Moose TODO/i in the code
-
- - Eliminate all instances of $instance->{$key}
+So Catalyst::Plugin::Log::* can die
+in a fire. Having $c->log_class would be a good start. kane volunteered
+to do some of this.
- - Catalyst-Log-Log4perl - deep recursion in the test suite, investigate
+Simple example: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Colorful should just be a
+subclass of Catalyst::Log, no ::Plugin:: needed.
- - Profiling vs 5.70 and optimisation as needed.
+See also: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Dispatch and
+http://github.com/willert/catalyst-plugin-log4perl-simple/tree
- - http://lists.scsys.co.uk/pipermail/catalyst-dev/2008-November/001546.html
- - patch to list, andyg to look at?
+# REFACTORING
+
+## The horrible hack for plugin setup - replacing it:
+
+ * Have a look at the Devel::REPL BEFORE_PLUGIN stuff
+ I wonder if what we need is that combined with plugins-as-roles
+
+## App / ctx split:
+
+ NOTE - these are notes that t0m thought up after doing back compat for
+ _component_class, may be inaccurate, wrong or missing things
+ bug mst (at least) to correct before trying more than the first 2
+ steps. Please knock yourself out on the first two however :)
+
+ - Eliminate actions in MyApp from the main test suite
+ - Uncomment warning in C::C::register_action_methods, add tests it works
+ by mocking out the logging..
+ - Remove MyApp @ISA controller (ask metaclass if it has attributes, and if
+ so you need back compat :/)
+ - Make Catalyst::Context, move the per request stuff in there, handles from
+ main app class to delegate
+ - Make an instance of the app class which is a global variable
+ - Make new instance of the context class, not the app class per-request
+ - Remove the components as class data, move to instance data on the app
+ class (you probably have to do this for _all_ the class data, good luck!)
+ - Make it possible for users to spin up different instances of the app class
+ (with different config etc each)
+ - Profit! (Things like changing the complete app config per vhost, i.e.
+ writing a config loader / app class role which dispatches per vhost to
+ differently configured apps is piss easy)
