If you + are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll + be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with + the new major version of Catalyst. + + Documentation: + - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90 + of Catalyst has been much improved. + +5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00 + + Bug fixes: + - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of + $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value + to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start + returning true. + Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined. + + - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request + not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to + the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren) + + - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly + in Catalyst::execute + + - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number + of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for + PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path). + + This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*) + type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements + (e.g. /account/*) + + New features: + - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to + allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally. + + This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to + be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by + developers without changing their application code. + +5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02 + + Bug fixes: + - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that + a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash + is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading + which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken + version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading. + + - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty + body (e.g. doing a redirect) + +5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release) + + This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime. + + Removed features: + + - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have + one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything + the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen + through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI, + Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so + on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The + catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work. + + If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or + anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine:: + classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine + class, please tell us *now*. + +5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02 + + New features: + - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process + title. + - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the + absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at + all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for + things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response + bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also + have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15. + + Bug fixes: + - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting + the Content-Length header appropriately) + - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths + with the minimum number of captures (rather than the + maximum number of actions). This means that (for example) + a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference + to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications + if you are using chained action and please write new test to report + failing case. + - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New + versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if + available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl + version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work + with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without + Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also + work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if + Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed. + + Documentation: + - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated + with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen) + +5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00 + + New features: + - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view + or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets + confused. + + Warning fixes: + - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a + class which already has one by using _add_meta_method. + +5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00 + + Bug fixes: + - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils. + + - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing + the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure. + + - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl + +5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00 + + Bug fixes: + - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView + +5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00 + Bug fixes: - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
