Pkgsrc changes:
- Add patch on Makefile.PL so that the generated Makefile does not
require gmake
Upstream changes:
0.76
* Class::MOP::Method::Generated
- Added new private methods to support code generation, which
are being used by Moose and can be used by MooseX
authors. (mst)
- Generated methods are now generated with a #line directive
reflecting the source of the generated method. (nothingmuch)
* Class::MOP::Class
- Clarified documentation of methods that return
Class::MOP::Method objects. (doy)
* Class::MOP
- Clarified documentation of the metaclass cache methods. (Sartak)
* Tests
- Add test showing how the xs Class::MOP::is_class_loaded can
be made to operate differently to the pure perl version (t0m)
Upstream changes:
0.75 Tue, December 31, 2008
* Class::MOP::Class
- A class that was made immutable and then mutable could end up
sharing an immutable transformer object
(Class::MOP::Immutable) with other classes, leading to all
sorts of odd bugs. Reported by t0m. (Dave Rolsky)
0.74 Tue, December 25, 2008
* MOP.xs
- Add an xs implementation of Class::MOP::is_class_loaded (closes
RT#41862). Based on a patch by Goro Fuji. (Florian Ragwitz)
- Changed internals to make prehashing of hash keys easier and less
error-prone. (Florian Ragwitz)
* Class::MOP::Class
- Fix documentation to show that around modifiers happen on both
sides of the modified method. (Dave Rolsky)
Upstream changes:
0.73 Tue, December 16, 2008
* MOP.xs
- Don't use Perl_mro_meta_init. It's not part of the public perl
api. Fixes failures to build on Win32 (RT #41750). (Florian
Ragwitz)
* t/082_get_code_info.t
- Add $^P &= ~0x200; (per Ovid's suggestion) in order to not
munger anonymous subs when under -d and so making the tests
succeed in that case.
Upstream changes:
0.72 Mon, December 8, 2008
* Class::MOP::Package
- Pass options to _new, so subclass' attributes can be
initialized (Sartak)
* Class::MOP::Method
- In the docs, indicate that package_name and name are required
when calling ->wrap (Stefan O'Rear)
Pkgsrc changes:
- add new dependency on devel/p5-Task-Weaken
Upstream changes:
0.71 Wed November 26, 2008
* Class::MOP::Class
* Class::MOP::Module
- Actual package creation has moved upward from
Class to Module so that Moose roles can share
the code (Sartak)
0.70_01 Mon, November 19, 2008
* Class::MOP
- Fixes for failures with blead (Florian Ragwitz)
- Silenced compiler warnings (Florian Ragwitz)
Changes:
0.70 Fri, November 14, 2008
* Class::MOP
- Fixed an odd corner case where the XS version of
get_all_package_symbols could cause a segfault. This only
happened with inlined constants in Perl 5.10.0 (Florian
Ragwitz)
Changes:
0.68 Fri October 25, 2008
* Class::MOP
- Make load_class require by file name instead of module name.
This stops confusing error messages when loading '__PACKAGE__'.
(Florian Ragwitz)
- Add load_one_class_of function to enable you to load one of a
list of classes, rather than having to call load_class multiple
times in an eval. (t0m)
Changes:
0.67 Tue October 14, 2008
* Class::MOP::Class
- Call a method on the class after setting the superclass list
so that we can get Perl to detect cycles before MRO::Compat
spirals into an infinite loop (sartak)
- Reported by Schwern, [rt.cpan.org #39001]
- In create(), pass unused options on to initialize()
- added test for this
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.8.8 -> 5.10.0.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=...").
Changes:
0.66
!! This release has an incompatible change regarding !!
introspection of a class's method with Class::MOP::Class !!
* Tests and XS
- We (us maintainers) now run all tests with XS and then without
XS, which should help us catch skew between the XS/pure Perl
code. (Dave Rolsky)
* Class::MOP::Class
! The alias_method method has been deprecated. It now simply
calls add_method instead. There is no distinction between
aliased methods and "real" methods.
This means that methods added via alias_method now show up as
part of the class's method list/map. This is backwards
incompatible change, but seems unlikely to break any
code. Famous last words. (Dave Rolsky)
* Class::MOP::Class
- Fixed the spelling of "compatibility", but we still have a
"check_metaclass_compatability" method for backwards
compatibility.
Package changes: add all required Perl modules for test target as
build dependencies.
Changes:
0.65 Mon September 1, 2008
For those not following the series of dev releases, the changes
from 0.64 from 0.65 can mostly be summed up as a lot performance
improvements by nothingmuch, including new optional XS versions of
some methods. Also, Class::MOP now works _without_ any XS modules,
for sad systems without a compiler.
* Class::MOP::Method
- Added name and package_name XS accessors, and make sure all
the XS and Perl versions work the same way. (Dave Rolsky)
* MOP.xs
- The XS versions of various methods just returned undef when
called class methods, rather than dying like the pure Perl
versions. (Dave Rolsky)
0.64_07 Fri August 29, 2008
* Class::MOP
- Silenced warnings that managed to break Moose tests when XS
was loaded. (Dave Rolsky)
- Some XS versions of methods were ignored because of typos in
MOP.xs. (Dave Rolsky)
0.64_06 Mon August 25, 2008
* Class::MOP (MOP.xs)
- Another MS VC++ fix, cannot declare a variable in the middle
of a scope (Taro Nishino).
0.64_05 Sun August 24, 2008
* Class::MOP
- None of the dev releases actually loaded the XS properly, but
we silently fell back to the pure Perl version of the
code. (Dave Rolsky)
* Class::MOP (MOP.xs)
- Replaced some code that used functions not available on Visual
C++ with some Perl XS API bits (Dave Rolsky).
0.64_04 Sat August 23, 2008
* Class::MOP::Class
- Workaround a bug in 5.8.1's goto sub (nothingmuch)
* pod.t and pod_coveraget.t
- These are no longer shipped with the tarball because of bogus
failures from CPAN testers. (Dave Rolsky)
0.64_03 Thu August 21, 2008
* Class::MOP::Package
- Some (legit) code was misparsed by earlier 5.8.x
releases. (nothingmuch)
* Class::MOP
- Fix a constant in void context warning (nothingmuch)
0.64_02 Thu August 21, 2008
* Makefile.PL and Class::MOP
- Explicitly require Perl 5.8.0+ (Dave Rolsky)
* Makefile.PL
- Add missing prereqs that got lost in the switch away from
Module::Install.
* Class::MOP::Instance
- New method - get_all_attributes (nothingmuch)
0.64_01 Wed August 20, 2008
* Makefile.PL
- We now check to see if you have a compiler. If you don't, the
module installs without some XS bits, but will work the same
as with XS. This should make it easier to install on platforms
without a compiler (like Windows). (Dave Rolsky)
* many modules
- Perl 6 style attribute naming replaced with sane style ('methods', not
'%!methods'). These changes should not impact any existing API uses.
(nothingmuch).
* many modules
- Quite a number of optimizations based on profiling, including
allowing constructors to take hash references instead of
hashes, duplicating some frequently used code in XS, and
making constructors immutable. These changes should not impact
any existing API uses. (nothingmuch)
* Many modules
- Constructors now respect the meta attributes of their subclasses,
facilitating MOP extensibility. More related changes will happen in the
next several releases. (nothingmuch)
* Class::MOP::Class
- New method - get_all_methods, replaces the deprecated
compute_all_applicable_methods. get_all_attributes provided for
consistency (nothingmuch)
- New method - wrap_method was refactored out of get_method_map
(nothingmuch)
- New API for meta instance invalidation - invalidate_meta_instance,
invalidate_meta_instances, add_dependent_meta_instance,
remove_dependent_meta_instance, called automatically when attribute
definitions change and allows notification of dependent subclasses.
(nothingmuch)
Changes:
0.64 Sun August 3, 2008
* Class::MOP::Immutable
- fixing subtle edge case in immutable when you
call ->meta (stevan)
- clean up option processing (nothingmuch)
* Class::MOP::Instance
- inlined initialize slot didn't match
non-inlined (nothingmuch)
Packages Collection.
The Perl 5 module Class::MOP is a fully functioning meta object
protocol for the Perl 5 object system. It makes no attempt to change
the behavior or characteristics of the Perl 5 object system, only
to create a protocol for its manipulation and introspection. It
does attempt to create the tools for building a rich set of extensions
to the Perl 5 object system
