1 Revision history for Perl extension Class-MOP.
4 * Fix typo in Class::MOP::Attribute (Franck Cuny).
10 * Added Class::MOP::Class->rebless_instance_back, which does the inverse of
11 rebless_instance (doy, rafl).
13 0.97_01 Mon, Jan 4, 2010
17 * Internal refactorings to move shared behavior into new "mixin" classes. This
18 made adding some new features to Moose much easier. (Dave Rolsky)
20 0.97 Fri, Dec 18, 2009
21 * No code changes, just packaging fixes to make this distro installable.
23 0.96 Fri, Dec 18, 2009
25 - Fixed t/082_get_code_info.t so it passes with bleadperl. (Dave Rolsky)
26 - Add XS & C files to no tabs check (Dave Rolsky)
27 - Convert all tests to done_testing. (Florian Ragwitz)
29 0.95 Wed, Nov 19, 2009
31 - Make is_class_loaded without any arguments fail loudly
33 - Make load_class throw more standard error messages when loading single
34 modules (nothingmuch).
37 - Stop add_method from behaving differently under the debugger
42 - Any method which takes a method name as an argument now allows names
43 which are false (like "0"), but the name must be defined and not be an
44 empty string. (Dave Rolsky)
47 - Deprecated get_attribute_map as a public method. You can use a
48 combination of get_attribute_list and get_attribute instead. (Dave
51 0.94 Tue, Sep 22, 2009
52 * Class::MOP::Attribute
53 - Introduce set_raw_value and get_raw_value, side effect free variants
54 of {get,set}_value. These don't do anything useful in Class::MOP but
55 have different behavior that set_value and get_value for Moose
56 attributes. (nothingmuch)
58 0.93 Tue, Sep 15, 2009
60 - The load_class function just returns true, since it's return value was
61 confusing (either a metaclass object or a class name). It either loads
62 a class or dies trying. In the future, this may change to not return
63 anything, since there's no point in checking its return
64 value. Addresses RT #45883. (Dave Rolsky)
66 * Class::MOP::Class::Trait::Immutable
67 - When throwing an error because of an immutable method, include that
68 method's name. Addresses RT #49680. (Shawn M Moore)
71 - Adding the same sub reference to multiple packages failed to update
72 the method map properly. RT #48985. Reported by Paul Mooney. (Dave
74 - The get_method_map method is now private (and called as
75 _full_method_map or _method_map). The public version is available as a
76 deprecated method. (Dave Rolsky)
78 0.92_01 Thu, Sep 10, 2009
80 - Backwards compatibility tweaks to XS for 5.8.1. (Goro Fuji)
83 - Make sure XS code handles magical scalars correctly. (Goro Fuji)
86 - Documented the immutable_options method, which is useful if you need
87 to make a class mutable temporarily, and then nede to restore
88 immutability. (Dave Rolsky)
91 - Deprecated features have been moved to their own module,
92 Class::MOP::Deprecated, for easier deprecation management. (Goro Fuji)
97 - Move get_method_map and its various scaffolding into Package. (hdp)
100 - Allow Class::MOP::Method->wrap to take a Class::MOP::Method object as
101 the first argument, rather than just a coderef. (doy)
103 * Class::MOP::Attribute
105 - Allow attribute names to be false (while still requiring them to be
108 0.91 Wed Jul 29, 2009
109 * Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
110 - Fixing variable usage issues with the patch from previous
111 version, not properly using lexicals in the for
114 0.90 Tue Jul 21, 2009
115 Japan Perl Association has sponsored Goro Fuji to improve startup
116 performance of Class::MOP and Moose. These enhancements may break
117 backwards compatibility if you're doing (or using) complex
118 metaprogramming, so, as always, test your code!
119 http://blog.perlassociation.org/2009/07/jpa-sponsors-moose-class-mop-work.html
123 - Anonymous classes were not completely destroyed when they went
124 out of scope, leading to a memory leak. RT #47480. (Goro
128 - The get_method, has_method, and add_method methods no longer
129 use get_method_map. Method objects are instantiated
130 lazily. This significantly improves Class::MOP's load
134 - Inline fewer metaclass-level constructors since the ones we
135 have are perfectly fine. This reduces the number of string
138 * Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
139 - If a method modifier set $_, this caused the modifier to blow
140 up, because of some weird internals. (Jeremy Stashewsky)
144 * Class::MOP::Class::Immutable::Trait
145 - Made the Trait act like a role with a bunch of "around"
146 modifiers, rather than sticking it in the inheritance
147 hierarchy. This fixes various problems that caused with
148 metaclass compatibility, which broke Fey::ORM.
151 - Allow a blessed code reference as the method body. Fixes a
152 problem interaction with MooseX::Types. (ash)
154 * Class::MOP::Instance
155 - add inline version of rebless_instance_structure. (doy)
156 - change inline_slot_access to use single quotes (gphat)
158 0.88 Tue, Jun 23, 2009
160 - Moved the __INSTANCE__ parameter to _construct_instance from
162 - Fixed some issues involving metaclasses of metaclasses and
165 0.87 Sun, Jun 21, 2009
167 - Made sure to always local-ize $@ and $SIG{__DIE__} before
168 calling an eval. Fixes RT #45973.
171 - Synced docs about immutability with the current reality (which
172 changed back in 0.82_01)
173 - Removed the immutable_transformer method, which had been
174 returning undef since 0.82_01 anyway.
177 - Got rid of tests which needed Moose and improved testing of
178 constructor/destructor inlining warnings. Fixes RT #47119.
180 0.86 Tue, Jun 16, 2009
182 - If you redefined a subroutine at runtime and then wrapped it
183 with a method modifier, the modifier could in some cases wrap
184 the original version of the subroutine. Fixes RT #46957.
187 - make_immutable issues a warning instead of overriding an
188 existing DESTROY method (Dylan William Hardison). Fixes RT
191 0.85 Sat, Jun 6, 2009
192 * Class::MOP::Attribute
193 - Allow default values to be Class::MOP::Methods. (Florian
195 - Test the above. (Rhesa Rozendaal)
196 - Tweak original commit so the intent matches the accepted
197 behavior (Nicholas Perez)
200 - Localize $SIG{__DIE__} inside _try_load_one_class (Sartak)
203 - Add direct_subclasses method (Sartak)
204 - Tests for subclasses and direct_subclasses (Sartak)
205 - subname is no longer used unconditionally in add_method, but
206 only if the code reference's name is '__ANON__' (nothingmuch)
207 - Add a hook for _superclasses_updated (Sartak)
210 - Remove long, old warning about possibly outdated modules
213 0.84 Tue, May 12, 2009
215 - Depend on Text::Exception 0.27 to avoid failing tests ond old
219 - Made is_class_loaded a little stricter. It was reporting that
220 a class was loaded if it merely had an @ISA variable in its
221 stash. Now it checks that the @ISA var has elements in it.
222 - Deprecate in_global_destruction and subname re-exporting
226 - Explicitly use Devel::GlobalDestruction and Sub::Name
229 * Class::MOP::Package
230 - Disable prototype mismatch warnings for add_package_symbol.
233 - Add test for finding methods from $meta->name->meta before immutable,
236 0.83 Mon, April 27, 2009
238 - Fix segfault when calling get_method_map on a metaclass for an empty
241 0.82_02 Fri, April 24, 2009
242 * Class::MOP::Method::Inlined
243 - Don't inline if the expected method is not defined at all (happens with
244 e.g. Moose::Object::_new is the expected method due to an overridden
247 - Some tests were trying to load Class::MOP::Immutable, which
248 was removed in 0.82_01.
250 0.82_01 Thu, April 23, 2009
251 * Class::MOP::Immutable (and others)
252 - Refactor the immutability system to use a pre-defined class
253 for the immutable metaclass of Class::MOP::Class::Immutable::$class
254 - Rather than generating methods into this class every time, use
255 a Trait (basic mixin) to supply the cached methods
256 - Remove the hack that returns the mutable metaclass for
257 metacircularity in order to provide consistent meta-metaclasses
258 for the Moose compatibility handling code
259 (mst broke it, nothingmuch fixed it)
261 0.82 Mon, April 20, 2009
263 - The deprecation wrappers for some renamed methods were not
264 passing arguments to the new method. (nothingmuch)
266 * Class::MOP::Immutable
267 - Warn during immutablization if the local class provides its own
268 constructor, to parallel the warning in Moose when a superclass
269 provides its own constructor (doy)
271 0.81 Tue, April 7, 2009
274 * Class::MOP::Instance
275 * Class::MOP::Attribute
276 * Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
277 * Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
278 - Include stack traces in the deprecation warnings introduced in
279 0.80_01. (Florian Ragwitz)
282 - Avoid c compiler warnings by declaring some unused function
283 arguments. (Florian Ragwitz)
285 0.80_01 Sun, April 5, 2009
287 - Make sure to preserve any compiler flags already defined in
288 Config.pm. Patch by Vincent Pit. RT #44739.
290 * Many methods have been renamed with a leading underscore, and a
291 few have been deprecated entirely. The methods with a leading
292 underscore are considered "internals only". People writing
293 subclasses or extensions to Class::MOP should feel free to
294 override them, but they are not for "public" use.
297 - construct_class_instance => _construct_class_instance (use new_object)
298 - construct_instance => _construct_instance (use new_object)
299 - check_metaclass_compatibility => _check_metaclass_compatibility
300 - create_meta_instance => _create_meta_instance (use get_meta_instance)
301 - clone_instance => _clone_instance (use clone_object)
302 - compute_all_applicable_methods is deprecated, use get_all_methods
303 - compute_all_applicable_attributes is deprecated, use get_all_attributes
305 - Class::MOP::Instance
306 - bless_instance_structure is deprecated and will be removed
310 - create has been renamed to _instantiate_module. This method
311 does not construct an object, it evals some code that
312 creates the relevant package in Perl's symbol table.
314 - Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
315 - initialize_body => _initialize_body (this is always called
316 when an object is constructed)
317 - /(generate_.*_method(?:_inline)?)/ => '_' . $1
319 - Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
320 - initialize_body => _initialize_body (this is always called
321 when an object is constructed)
322 - /(generate_constructor_method(?:_inline)?)/ => '_' . $1
323 - attributes => _attributes
324 - meta_instance => _meta_instance
326 0.80 Wed, April 1, 2009
328 - Call user_class->meta in fewer places, with the eventual goal
329 of allowing the user to rename or exclude ->meta
330 altogether. Instead uses Class::MOP::class_of. (Sartak)
333 - New class_of function that should be used to retrieve a
334 metaclass. This is unlike get_metaclass_by_name in that it
335 accepts instances, not just class names. (Sartak)
338 - load_first_existing_class didn't actually load the first
339 existing class; instead, it loaded the first existing and
340 compiling class. It now throws an error if a class exists (in
341 @INC) but fails to compile. (hdp)
345 - we had some semi-buggy code that purported to provide a
346 HAS_ISAREV based on whether mro had get_isarev (due to an
347 oversight, it always returned 1). Since mro and MRO::Compat
348 have always had get_isarev, HAS_ISAREV was pointless. This
349 insight simplified the subclasses method by deleting the
350 pure-perl fallback. HAS_ISAREV is now deprecated. (Sartak)
352 0.79 Fri, March 29, 2009
353 * No changes from 0.78_02.
355 0.78_02 Thu, March 26, 2009
357 * Class::MOP::Immutable
358 - A big backwards-incompatible refactoring of the Immutable API,
359 and the make_immutable/make_mutable pieces of the Class
360 API. The core __PACKAGE__->meta->make_immutable API remains
361 the same, however, so this should only affect the most
365 - The XS code used a macro, XSPROTO, that's only in 5.10.x. This
366 has been fixed to be backwards compatible with 5.8.x.
369 - Add a hook for rebless_instance_away (Sartak)
370 - Use blessed instead of ref to get an instance's class name
371 in rebless_instance. (Sartak)
373 0.78_01 Wed, March 18, 2009
375 - Revised and reorganized all of the API documentation. All
376 classes now have (more or less) complete API documentation.
379 * Class::MOP::Instance
380 - Reblessing into a package that supports overloading wasn't
381 properly adding overload magic to the object due to a bug
382 in (at least) 5.8.8. We now use $_[1] directly which seems
383 to set the magic properly. (Sartak)
385 * Class::MOP::Attribute
386 - The process_accessors method is now private. A public alias
387 exists (and will stick around for a few releases), but it
388 warns that calling the public method is deprecated.
390 * Class::MOP::Method::Generated
391 - Removed the new and _new methods, since this is an abstract
392 base class, and all existing subclasses implement their own
396 - Stop is_class_loaded from thinking a class is loaded if it
397 only has an empty GV (Florian Ragwitz).
398 - Add a test for this (Yappo).
399 - Refactor get_all_package_symbols to allow short-circuiting
401 - Use this in is_class_loaded (Florian Ragwitz).
402 - Stop segfaulting when trying to get the name from a sub that's
403 still being compiled (Florian Ragwitz).
404 - Add tests for this (Florian Ragwitz).
405 - Prefix all public symbols with "mop_" (Florian Ragwitz).
406 - Clean up and simplify prehashing of hash keys (Florian Ragwitz).
407 - Simplify creating simple xs reader methods (Florian Ragwitz).
408 - Make everything compile with c++ compilers (Florian Ragwitz).
409 - Upgrade ppport.h from 3.14 to 3.17 (Florian Ragwitz).
412 - Remove optional test plans for tests depending on Sub::Name as
413 we have a hard dependency on Sub::Name anyway (Florian Ragwitz).
416 - Rebuild all c code if mop.h has changed (Florian Ragwitz)
418 0.78 Mon, February 23, 2009
419 * No changes from 0.77_01
421 0.77_01 Sun, February 22, 2009
423 - This package now requires its XS components. Not using
424 Sub::Name lead to different behavior and bugginess in the pure
425 Perl version of the code. A Moose test would fail when run
426 against the pure Perl version of this code.
428 * Class::MOP::Instance
429 - The inline_* methods now quote attribute names themselves, and
430 don't expect to receive a quoted value.
433 0.77 Sat, February 14, 2009
435 - Avoid assertion errors on debugging perls in is_class_loaded
439 - Fixed various corner cases where is_class_loaded incorrectly
440 returned true for a class that wasn't really loaded. (Dave
444 - Add get_all_method_names (Sartak)
445 - Add a wrapped_method_metaclass attribute (Florian Ragwitz)
447 * Class::MOP::Package
448 - Disable deprecated get_all_package_symbols in list
449 context. (Florian Ragwitz)
452 - Make sure we generate a BSD-compatible Makefile (Florian
456 - The misspelled "check_metaclass_compatability" method we've
457 kept around for backwards compat_i_bility will be removed in a
458 near future release. You've been warned.
460 0.76 Thu, January 22, 2009
461 * Class::MOP::Method::Generated
462 - Added new private methods to support code generation, which
463 are being used by Moose and can be used by MooseX
465 - Generated methods are now generated with a #line directive
466 reflecting the source of the generated method. (nothingmuch)
469 - Clarified documentation of methods that return
470 Class::MOP::Method objects. (doy)
473 - Clarified documentation of the metaclass cache methods. (Sartak)
476 - Add test showing how the xs Class::MOP::is_class_loaded can
477 be made to operate differently to the pure perl version (t0m)
479 0.75 Wed, December 31, 2008
481 - A class that was made immutable and then mutable could end up
482 sharing an immutable transformer object
483 (Class::MOP::Immutable) with other classes, leading to all
484 sorts of odd bugs. Reported by t0m. (Dave Rolsky)
486 0.74 Tue, December 25, 2008
488 - Add an xs implementation of Class::MOP::is_class_loaded (closes
489 RT#41862). Based on a patch by Goro Fuji. (Florian Ragwitz)
490 - Changed internals to make prehashing of hash keys easier and less
491 error-prone. (Florian Ragwitz)
493 - Fix documentation to show that around modifiers happen on both
494 sides of the modified method. (Dave Rolsky)
496 0.73 Tue, December 16, 2008
498 - Don't use Perl_mro_meta_init. It's not part of the public perl
499 api. Fixes failures to build on Win32 (RT #41750). (Florian
501 * t/082_get_code_info.t
502 - Add $^P &= ~0x200; (per Ovid's suggestion) in order to not
503 munger anonymous subs when under -d and so making the tests
504 succeed in that case.
506 0.72 Mon, December 8, 2008
507 * Class::MOP::Package
508 - Pass options to _new, so subclass' attributes can be
511 - In the docs, indicate that package_name and name are required
512 when calling ->wrap (Stefan O'Rear)
514 0.71_02 Fri, December 5, 2008
515 * Class::MOP::Immutable
516 - Added a new attribute, inlined_constructor, which is true if
517 the constructor was inlined.
518 * Class::MOP::Package
519 - Make get_all_package_symbols return a hash ref in scalar
520 context and deprecate calling it in list context with a
521 warning. (Florian Ragwitz)
523 - Various improvements and refactoring, making things more robust and
524 easier to maintain. (Florian Ragwitz)
526 0.71_01 Wed, December 3, 2008
528 - Add an "execute" method to invoke the body so
529 we can avoid using the coderef overload (Sartak)
530 * Class::MOP::Immutable
531 - When we memoize methods, get their results lazily
532 to remove some compile-time cost (Sartak)
533 - Small speedup from eliminating several method
536 - Some small internal tweaks to try to reduce the number of
537 times we call get_method_map when bootstrapping the MOP. This
538 might make loading Class::MOP (and Moose) a little
539 faster. (Dave Rolsky)
540 - Implemented an optional XS version of get_method_map. Mostly
541 taken from a patch by Goro Fuji (rt.cpan.org #41080), with
542 help form Florian Ragwitz. (Dave Rolsky)
543 - Make the behaviour of of get_all_package_symbols (and
544 therefore get_method_map) consistent for stub methods. Report
545 and test by Goro Fuji (rt.cpan.org #41255). (Florian Ragwitz)
547 0.71 Wed November 26, 2008
550 - Actual package creation has moved upward from
551 Class to Module so that Moose roles can share
554 0.70_01 Mon, November 19, 2008
556 - Fixes for failures with blead (Florian Ragwitz)
557 - Silenced compiler warnings (Florian Ragwitz)
559 0.70 Fri, November 14, 2008
561 - Fixed an odd corner case where the XS version of
562 get_all_package_symbols could cause a segfault. This only
563 happened with inlined constants in Perl 5.10.0 (Florian
566 0.69 Fri, November 7, 2008
567 * Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
568 - Added introspection methods for method modifiers (Dave Rolsky)
571 0.68 Fri October 24, 2008
573 - Make load_class require by file name instead of module name.
574 This stops confusing error messages when loading '__PACKAGE__'.
576 - Add load_one_class_of function to enable you to load one of a
577 list of classes, rather than having to call load_class multiple
578 times in an eval. (t0m)
580 0.67 Tue October 14, 2008
582 - Call a method on the class after setting the superclass list
583 so that we can get Perl to detect cycles before MRO::Compat
584 spirals into an infinite loop (sartak)
585 - Reported by Schwern, [rt.cpan.org #39001]
586 - In create(), pass unused options on to initialize()
587 - added test for this
589 0.66 Sat September 20, 2008
590 !! This release has an incompatible change regarding !!
591 introspection of a class's method with Class::MOP::Class !!
594 - We (us maintainers) now run all tests with XS and then without
595 XS, which should help us catch skew between the XS/pure Perl
599 ! The alias_method method has been deprecated. It now simply
600 calls add_method instead. There is no distinction between
601 aliased methods and "real" methods.
603 This means that methods added via alias_method now show up as
604 part of the class's method list/map. This is a backwards
605 incompatible change, but seems unlikely to break any
606 code. Famous last words. (Dave Rolsky)
609 - Fixed the spelling of "compatibility", but we still have a
610 "check_metaclass_compatability" method for backwards
613 0.65 Mon September 1, 2008
614 For those not following the series of dev releases, the changes
615 from 0.64 from 0.65 can mostly be summed up as a lot performance
616 improvements by nothingmuch, including new optional XS versions of
617 some methods. Also, Class::MOP now works _without_ any XS modules,
618 for sad systems without a compiler.
621 - Added name and package_name XS accessors, and make sure all
622 the XS and Perl versions work the same way. (Dave Rolsky)
625 - The XS versions of various methods just returned undef when
626 called class methods, rather than dying like the pure Perl
627 versions. (Dave Rolsky)
629 0.64_07 Fri August 29, 2008
631 - Silenced warnings that managed to break Moose tests when XS
632 was loaded. (Dave Rolsky)
633 - Some XS versions of methods were ignored because of typos in
634 MOP.xs. (Dave Rolsky)
636 0.64_06 Mon August 25, 2008
637 * Class::MOP (MOP.xs)
638 - Another MS VC++ fix, cannot declare a variable in the middle
639 of a scope (Taro Nishino).
641 0.64_05 Sun August 24, 2008
643 - None of the dev releases actually loaded the XS properly, but
644 we silently fell back to the pure Perl version of the
647 * Class::MOP (MOP.xs)
648 - Replaced some code that used functions not available on Visual
649 C++ with some Perl XS API bits (Dave Rolsky).
651 0.64_04 Sat August 23, 2008
653 - Workaround a bug in 5.8.1's goto sub (nothingmuch)
655 * pod.t and pod_coveraget.t
656 - These are no longer shipped with the tarball because of bogus
657 failures from CPAN testers. (Dave Rolsky)
659 0.64_03 Thu August 21, 2008
660 * Class::MOP::Package
661 - Some (legit) code was misparsed by earlier 5.8.x
662 releases. (nothingmuch)
665 - Fix a constant in void context warning (nothingmuch)
667 0.64_02 Thu August 21, 2008
668 * Makefile.PL and Class::MOP
669 - Explicitly require Perl 5.8.0+ (Dave Rolsky)
672 - Add missing prereqs that got lost in the switch away from
675 * Class::MOP::Instance
676 - New method - get_all_attributes (nothingmuch)
678 0.64_01 Wed August 20, 2008
680 - We now check to see if you have a compiler. If you don't, the
681 module installs without some XS bits, but will work the same
682 as with XS. This should make it easier to install on platforms
683 without a compiler (like Windows). (Dave Rolsky)
686 - Perl 6 style attribute naming replaced with sane style ('methods', not
687 '%!methods'). These changes should not impact any existing API uses.
691 - Quite a number of optimizations based on profiling, including
692 allowing constructors to take hash references instead of
693 hashes, duplicating some frequently used code in XS, and
694 making constructors immutable. These changes should not impact
695 any existing API uses. (nothingmuch)
698 - Constructors now respect the meta attributes of their subclasses,
699 facilitating MOP extensibility. More related changes will happen in the
700 next several releases. (nothingmuch)
703 - New method - get_all_methods, replaces the deprecated
704 compute_all_applicable_methods. get_all_attributes provided for
705 consistency (nothingmuch)
706 - New method - wrap_method was refactored out of get_method_map
708 - New API for meta instance invalidation - invalidate_meta_instance,
709 invalidate_meta_instances, add_dependent_meta_instance,
710 remove_dependent_meta_instance, called automatically when attribute
711 definitions change and allows notification of dependent subclasses.
714 0.64 Sun August 3, 2008
715 * Class::MOP::Immutable
716 - fixing subtle edge case in immutable when you
718 - clean up option processing (nothingmuch)
720 * Class::MOP::Instance
721 - inlined initialize slot didn't match
722 non-inlined (nothingmuch)
724 0.63 Mon July 7, 2008
726 - load_class will initialize a metaclass even if
727 the class is already loaded (sartak)
728 - load_class now returns the metaclass instance
729 instead of just 1 (sartak)
732 - better error messages (sartak and Dave Rolsky)
734 0.62 Wed June 18, 2008
735 - in is_class_loaded, recognize scalar references (as opposed to globs) in
736 the symbol table as methods (these are optimized constant subs)
738 0.61 Fri. June 13, 2008
739 - Okay, lets give this another try and see if PAUSE
740 recognizes it correct this time.
742 0.60 Thurs. Jun 12, 2008
743 - Fixed a version number issue by bumping all modules
746 0.59 Thurs. Jun 12, 2008
747 !! Several fixes resulting in yet another 25-30% speedup !!
750 - now stores the instance of the instance
751 metaclass to avoid needless recomputation
752 and deletes it when the cache is blown
753 - introduce methods to query Class::MOP::Class for
754 the options used to make it immutable as well as
755 the proper immutable transformer. (groditi)
757 * Class::MOP::Package
758 - {add, has, get, remove}_package_symbol all
759 now accept a HASH ref argument as well as the
760 string. All internal usages now use the HASH
764 - MOP.xs does sanity checks on the coderef
766 - is_class_loaded check now uses code that
767 was improved in Moose's ClassName type
769 - nonsensical (undef, empty, reference) class
770 names now throw a more direct error in
772 - tests for this and other aspects of
778 Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
779 Class::MOP::Attribute
780 - switched usage of reftype to ref because
783 0.58 Thurs. May 29, 2008
784 (late night release engineering)--
786 - fixing the version is META.yml, no functional
787 changes in this release
789 0.57 Wed. May 28, 2008
790 !! Several speedups resulting in 20-25% speedups !!
791 || (thanks to konobi, groditi, mst & CataMoose) !!
794 - made get_method_map use list_all_package_symbols
795 instead of manually grabbing each symbol
796 - streamlining &initialize somewhat, since it gets
799 * Class::MOP::Package
800 - made {get, has}_package_symbol not call
802 - inlining a few calls to &name with
803 direct HASH access key access
804 - added get_all_package_symbols to fetch
805 a HASH of items based on a type filter
806 similar to list_all_package_symbols
807 - added tests for this
810 Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
811 Class::MOP::Method::Generated
812 Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
813 - added more descriptive error message to help
814 keep people from wasting time tracking an error
815 that is easily fixed by upgrading.
817 * Class::MOP::Immutable
818 - Don't inline a destructor unless the user actually
820 - added tests for this
822 0.56 Saturday, May 24, 2008
824 - we now get the &check_package_cache_flag
825 function from MRO::Compat
826 - All XS based functionality now has a
827 Pure Perl alternative
828 - the CLASS_MOP_NO_XS environment variable
829 can now be used to force non-XS versions

835 anon-sub ref in the method metaclass when
837 - added tests for this
839 * Class::MOP::Immutable
840 - added the ability to "wrap" methods when
841 making the class immutable
844 - now handling the edge case of ->meta->identifier
845 dying by wrapping add_package_symbol to specifically
846 allow for it to work.
847 - added tests for this
849 * Class::MOP::Attribute
851 Class::MOP::Immutable
852 - any time a method meta object is constructed
853 we make sure to pass the correct package and
854 method name information
857 Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
858 Class::MOP::Method::Generated
859 Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
860 Class::MOP::Method::Consructor
861 - the &wrap constructor method now requires that a
862 'package_name' and 'name' attribute are passed. This
863 is to help support the no-XS version, and will
864 throw an error if these are not supplied.
865 - all these classes are now bootstrapped properly
866 and now store the package_name and name attributes
869 ~ Build.PL has been removed since the
870 Module::Install support has been removed
872 0.55 Mon. April 28, 2008
873 - All classes now have proper C3 MRO support
874 - added MRO::Compat as a dependency to allow
875 for the C3 MRO support to Just Work in all
879 - rebless_instance now returns the instance
880 it has just blessed, this is mostly to
882 - set the attr correctly in rebless_instance
883 when it has no init_arg
884 - tweaked &linear_isa and &class_precedence_list
885 to support c3 classes.
887 0.54 Fri. March, 14, 2008
890 - making sure that load_class never gets
891 passed a value from @_ or $_ to squash
892 Ovid's bug (http://use.perl.org/~Ovid/journal/35763)
895 - make_{immutable,mutable} now return 1
897 - improved error handling in ->create method
898 - rebless_instance now takes extra params which
899 will be used to populate values
900 - added tests for this
903 - localizing the Data::Dumper configurations so
904 that it does not pollute others (RT #33509)
910 Class::MOP::Attribute
911 - these classes no longer define their own ->meta,
912 but instead just inherit from Class::MOP::Object
914 * Class::MOP::Instance
915 Class::MOP::Immutable
916 - these classes now inherit from Class::MOP::Object
919 - fixed the filename length on several
920 test files so we install on VMS better
922 - fixed incorrect use of catdir when it
923 should be catfile (RT #32385)
925 0.53 Thurs. Feb. 14, 1008
926 ~~ several doc. fixes and updates ~~
929 Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
930 Class::MOP::Attribute

932 to indicate that no constructor args can
933 be passed (thanks to nothingmuch)
934 - added tests for this
935 - added attribute initializer attribute (rjbs)
938 - making this use the new init_arg => undef
939 feature instead of the silly hack from
940 before (thanks to nothingmuch)
942 0.52 Tues. Jan. 22, 2008
944 - fixed bug in rebless_instance
947 * Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
948 - removed assumptions about the existence of
951 0.51 Mon. Jan. 14, 2008
952 ~~~ some misc. doc. fixes ~~~
953 ~~ updated copyright dates ~~
956 - now sets the IS_RUNNING_ON_5_10
957 constant so that we can take advantage
958 of some of the nice bits of 5.10
961 - uses the IS_RUNNING_ON_5_10 flag to
962 optimize the &linearized_isa method
963 and avoid the hack/check for circular
964 inheritence in &class_precedence_list
965 - added rebless_instance method (Sartak)
966 - added tests for this
968 * Class::MOP::Immutable
969 - the immutable class now keeps track of
970 the transformer which immutablized it
972 * Class::MOP::Instance
973 - added rebless_instance_structure method (Sartak)
974 - added tests for this
976 0.50 Fri. Dec. 21, 2007

989 0.49 Fri. Dec. 14, 2007
990 !! Class::MOP now loads 2 x faster !!
991 !! with XS speedups (thanks konobi) !!
994 - removed the dependency on B
995 - added two XS functions (thanks konobi)
996 - get_code_info($code) which replaces all
997 the B fiddling we were doing with
998 faster/leaner XS level fiddling
999 - check_package_cache_flag($pkg_name) which
1000 returns the PL_sub_generation variable to
1001 be used to help manage method caching.
1004 In 5.10 or greater this will actually
1005 use the mro::get_pkg_gen instead to give
1006 even more accurate caching information.
1007 blblack++ for that stuff :)
1010 - added the &subclasses method (thanks rlb)
1011 - added the update_package_cache_flag and
1012 reset_package_cache_flag which help keep
1013 track of when we need to re-fetch the
1015 - Several small improvements to take advantage
1016 of the new method map caching features
1018 0.48 Mon. Nov. 26, 2007
1019 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1020 - fixed get_read/write_method to handle the
1021 HASH ref case, which makes the

1023 - added more tests for this
1025 0.47 Sat. Nov. 24, 2007
1026 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1027 - fixed misspelling in get_write_method_ref
1028 - added more tests for this
1030 0.46 Fri. Nov. 23, 2007
1032 - added the linearized_isa method instead of constantly
1033 pruning duplicate classes (this will be even more
1034 useful in the 5.10-compat version coming soon)
1036 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1037 - added the get_read_method_ref and get_write_method_ref
1038 methods which allow you to retrieve a CODE ref which
1039 can always be used to read or write an attribute.
1041 0.45 Thurs. Nov. 13, 2007
1042 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1043 - Fix error message on confess (groditi)
1045 0.44 Thurs. Nov. 13, 2007

1048 0.43 Thurs. Nov. 13, 2007
1050 - Add support for the 'builder' attribute (groditi)
1053 - optimise metaclass-already-exists check in
1054 construct_class_instance (groditi)
1055 - duplicate check into initialize to save a
1056 call through (groditi)
1058 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1059 - Add support for the 'builder' attribute (groditi)
1060 - Make predicates check for the existence of a value, not whether
1061 it is defined (groditi)
1063 * Class::MOP::Instance
1064 - Make predicates check for the existence of a value, not whether
1065 it is defined (groditi)
1067 * Class::MOP::Method::Accessor
1068 - made this a subclass of Class::MOP::Method::Generated
1069 - removed the relevant attributes
1071 * Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
1072 - fixed the cached values we had to be more sane
1073 - made this a subclass of Class::MOP::Method::Generated
1074 - fixed generated constructor so it properly handles
1076 - added tests for this
1077 - added the option to allow for both inlined and
1078 non-inlined constructors.
1079 - Update inlined methods for builder and predicate changes (groditi)
1081 * Class::MOP::Method::Generated
1082 - added this class as an abstract base for the
1083 Class::MOP::Method::{Constructor,Accessor} classes
1084 - added tests for this
1087 - Alter tests (005, 014 020, 021) for new builder addition (groditi)

1097 - alter symbol table handling to deal with 5.8.x and 5.9.x
1100 - Get rid of the crappy workaround from 0.40/41
1102 0.41 Sun. July 15, 2007
1104 Arghh!!! My TODO test didn't work, so I handle
1105 it manually now so that people can use this
1106 with 5.9.5/bleadperl without issue.
1108 0.40 Tues, July 3, 2007
1110 ~ marked a test in 003_methods.t as TODO
1111 for perl 5.9.5 (this test is irrelvant to
1112 the module functioning on 5.9.5 for the most
1115 0.39 Mon. June 18, 2007
1116 * Class::MOP::Immutable
1117 - added make_metaclass_mutable + docs (groditi)
1118 - removed unused variable
1119 - added create_immutable_transformer
1120 necessary for sane overloading of immutable behavior
1121 - tests for this (groditi)
1124 - Immutability can now be undone,
1125 added make_mutable + tests + docs (groditi)
1126 - Massive changes to the way Immutable is done
1127 for details see comments next to make_immutable
1128 This fixes a bug where custom metaclasses broke
1129 when made immutable. We are now keeping one immutable
1130 metaclass instance per metaclass instead of just one
1131 to prevent isa hierarchy corruption. Memory use will go
1132 up, but I suspect it will be neglible.
1133 - New tests added for this behavior. (groditi)
1135 0.38 Thurs. May 31, 2007
1136 ~~ More documentation updates ~~
1138 * Class::MOP::Package
1139 - we now deal with stub methods properly
1140 - added tests for this
1141 - fixed some tests failing on 5.9.5 (thanks blblack)
1143 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1144 - added get_read_method and get_write_method
1145 thanks to groditi for this code, tests
1147 - added tests and POD for this
1150 - fixed RT issue #27329, clone object now
1151 handles undef values correctly.
1152 - added tests for this
1153 - Corrected anon-class handling so that they
1154 will not get reaped when instances still
1155 exist which need to reference them. This is
1156 the correct behavior, hopefully this is an
1157 obscure enough feature that there are not too
1158 many work arounds out in the wild.
1159 - added tests for this by groditi
1160 - updated docs to explain this
1163 - load custom metaclasses automatically (thanks groditi)
1164 - added tests for this behavior
1166 0.37 Sat. March 10, 2007
1167 ~~ Many, many documentation updates ~~
1170 - added &load_class and &is_class_loaded
1171 - added tests and docs for these
1173 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1174 - default now checks the instance with defined to
1175 avoid setting off bool-overloads (found by Carl Franks)
1179 - bad name in a test, causing meaningless failuress.
1184 ~~ GLOBAL CHANGES ~~
1185 - All attribute names are now consistent and follow Perl 6
1186 style (prefixed with the sigil, and ! as the twigil for
1187 private attrs). This should not affect any code, unless
1188 you broke encapsulation, in which case, it is your problem
1191 !! Class::MOP::Class::Immutable has been removed
1193 * Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
1194 - this has been moved out of Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
1195 and is a proper subclass of Class::MOP::Method now.
1198 - this module now uses Class::MOP::Immutable for the
1199 immutable transformation instead of
1200 Class::MOP::Class::Immutable.
1202 + Class::MOP::Immutable
1203 - this module now controls the transformation from a mutable
1204 to an immutable version of the class. Docs for this will
1205 be coming eventually.
1208 0.36 Sun. Nov. 5, 2006
1210 - added a few 'no warnings' lines to keep annoying
1211 (and meaningless) warnings from chirping during
1215 - some more bootstrapping is now done on the new
1218 * Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
1220 - constructor generation is now handled by
1221 the Class::MOP::Method::Constructor class
1223 * Class::MOP::Method::Constructor
1224 - created this to handle constructor generation
1225 in Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
1227 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1229 - attributes now delegate to the
1230 Class::MOP::Method::Accessor to generate
1233 * Class::MOP::Method::Accessor

1240 - initial prototype of a class browser, more
1241 on this to come. Comments and patches are
1245 - All Class::MOP::* accessors are no longer
1246 re-generated in the bootstrap, instead
1247 they are aliased from the originals
1248 - fixed tests to reflect
1249 - added Class::MOP::Method (and its subclasses)
1251 - adjusted tests for this
1252 - added the Class::MOP::Instance attributes
1255 * Class::MOP::Method
1257 - methods are no longer blessed CODE refs
1258 but are actual objects which can be CODE-ified
1259 - adjusted tests to compensate
1260 - adjusted docs for this
1263 - changed how methods are dealt with to
1264 encapsulate most of the work into the
1265 &get_method_map method
1266 - made several adjustments for the change
1267 in Class::MOP::Method
1268 - &add_attribute now checks if you are adding
1269 a duplicate name, and properly removes the
1270 old one before installing the new one
1271 - added tests for this
1272 - adjusted docs for this
1274 * Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
1275 - added caching of &get_method_map
1276 - fixed issue with &get_package_symbol

1281 &list_all_package_symbols
1283 0.34 Sat. Aug. 26, 2006
1285 - added the %:methods attribute, which like
1286 the $:version and such just actually goes
1287 to the symbol table to get it's stuff.
1288 However, it makes the MOP more complete.
1290 - The &create method now requires that all
1291 but the package name now is passed in as
1292 named parameters. See docs for more info.
1293 - updated docs and tests for this
1295 * Class::MOP::Object
1296 - added &dump method to easily Data::Dumper

1318 are no longer allowed for defaults
1319 - added tests for this
1321 * Class::MOP::Package
1322 - fixed an issue with perl 5.8.1 and how it deals
1323 with symbol tables. The namespace hash is now
1324 always reloaded from the symbol table.
1326 ~ lots of misc. documentation cleanup
1328 0.32 Sat. Aug. 12, 2006
1329 + added Class::MOP::Object so that the
1330 metamodel is more complete (and closer
1331 to what Perl 6 will probably be).

1335 the primary gateway between the metaclass
1336 and the Perl 5 symbol table
1337 - added many tests for this

1344 use Class::MOP::Package methods instead
1346 * Class::MOP::Module
1347 - adding the $:version attribute in the bootstrap
1348 so that Module has a version as an attribute
1349 - see comment in Class::MOP for details
1350 - added the $:authority attribute to this module
1351 as well as an &identifier method, to bring us
1352 ever closer to Perl 6 goodness
1353 - I have added $AUTHORITY to all the modules
1354 - added tests for this

1370 anywhere within the class hierarchy
1372 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1373 - added &set_value and &get_value for getting
1374 the value of the attribute for a particular
1377 0.30 Wed. July 5, 2006
1378 ---------------------------------------
1379 This is the first version of Class::MOP
1380 to introduce the immutable features which
1381 will be used for optimizating the MOP.
1382 This support should still be considered
1383 experimental, but moving towards stability.
1384 ---------------------------------------
1386 * Created Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
1388 * Created the Class::MOP::Package and
1389 Class::MOP::Module classes to more
1390 closely conform to Perl 6's meta-model
1393 - now inherits from Class::MOP::Module
1394 - several methods moved to ::Module and
1395 ::Package and now inherited
1396 - added tests for this
1398 * Class::MOP::Instance
1399 - added an is_inlinable method to allow other
1400 classes to check before they attempt to optimize.
1401 - added an inline_create_instance to inline
1402 instance creation (of course)
1405 - the Class::MOP::Class::*_package_variable
1406 methods are all now methods of Class::MOP::Package
1407 and called *_package_symbol instead. This is
1408 because they are now more general purpose symbol
1409 table manipulation methods.
1411 0.29_02 Thurs. June 22, 2006
1412 ++ DEVELOPER RELEASE ++
1414 - small change in &create so that it behaves

1421 Moose 0.09_01, it is a developer release
1422 because it introduces a new instance
1423 sub-protocol and has not yet been
1427 - anon-classes are now properly garbage collected
1428 - added tests for this
1429 - improved method modifier wrapping
1431 * Class::MOP::Instance
1432 - added new instance protocol
1433 - added tests for this

1441 itself, if it is not there, Class::MOP::Class
1443 - updated tests for this
1446 - added ArrayBasedStorage example to show

1470 - attribute slot initialization is now the responsibility
1471 of the attribute itself, and construct_instance now
1472 delegates appropriately
1474 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1475 - attribute slot initialization is now the responsibility
1476 of the attribute itself, so we added a method for it
1477 called initialize_instance_slot

1506 0.21 Wed. March 15, 2006
1508 - fixed issue where metaclasses are reaped from

1518 &fully_qualified_name methods, some of
1519 which were formerly private subs in
1522 * Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped
1523 - allows for a method to be wrapped with
1524 before, after and around modifiers
1525 - added tests and docs for this feature

1540 0.12 Thurs. Feb 23, 2006
1541 - reduced the dependency on B, no need to always
1545 - added docs to the C3 method dispatch order test

1554 - changed how clone_instance behaves, it now only does a
1555 shallow clone (see docs for more details)
1556 - added docs and tests
1558 0.10 Tues Feb. 14, 2006
1559 ** This release was mostly about writing more tests and
1560 cleaning out old and dusty code, the MOP should now
1561 be considered "ready to use".
1563 - adding more tests to get coverage up a little higher,
1564 mostly testing errors and edge cases.
1565 - test coverage is now at 99%
1568 - no longer optionally exports to UNIVERSAL::meta or
1569 creates a custom metaclass generator, use the
1570 metaclass pragma instead.
1573 - fixed a number of minor issues which came up in the
1574 error/edge-case tests
1576 * Class::MOP::Attribute
1577 - fixed a number of minor issues which came up in the

1583 0.06 Thurs Feb. 9, 2006
1585 - adding new metaclass pragma to make setting up the
1586 metaclass a little more straightforward
1589 - clean up bootstrapping to include more complete
1590 attribute definitions for Class::MOP::Class and
1591 Class::MOP::Attribute (accessors, readers, writers,
1592 etc.) ... it is redundant, but is useful meta-info
1596 - fixing minor meta-circularity issue with &meta, it
1597 is now more useful for subclasses
1598 - added &get_attribute_map as an accessor for the
1599 hash of attribute meta objects
1600 - &compute_all_applicable_attributes now just returns
1601 the attribute meta-object, rather than the HASH ref
1602 since all the same info can be gotten from the
1603 attribute meta-object itself
1604 - updated docs & tests to reflect
1605 - added &clone_instance method which does a deep clone
1606 of the instance structure created by &construct_instance
1607 - added docs & tests for this
1608 - added Clone as a dependency
1609 - added &new_object and &clone_object convience methods to
1610 return blessed new or cloned instances
1611 - they handle Class::MOP::Class singletons correctly too
1612 - added docs & tests for this
1613 - cleaned up the &constuct_class_instance so that it behaves
1614 more like &construct_instance (and managed the singletons too)
1615 - added the &check_metaclass_compatibility method to make sure
1616 that metaclasses are upward and downward compatible.
1617 - added tests and docs for this
1620 - adjusting code to use the &Class::MOP::Class::meta
1622 - adjusting code to use the metaclass pragma
1624 0.05 Sat Feb. 4, 2006

1627 attributes which contain a metaclass name to use for
1628 attributes/methods respectively
1631 - bootstrap additional attributes for Class::MOP::Class
1634 - adjusted the example code and tests to use the new
1635 &attribute_metaclass feature of Class::MOP::Class
1636 - added new example:
1639 0.04 Fri Feb. 3, 2006
1641 - some documentation suggestions from #perl6
