Changes:
4.40 Mon Aug 21 19:41:24 EDT 2006
[BUG FIXES]
- All FV_ closures are now exported with ":closures". (Ed Pigg, Mark Stosberg)
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- Added new constraint for the common case of comparing one field with another,
such as a word confirmation field. Example:
constraint_methods => {
password => FV_eq_with('password_confirm'),
}
(Mark Stosberg)
4.30 Mon Jul 10 21:41:37 EDT 2006
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- A new method for constraint writers has been added: untainted_constraint_value().
If you have written a constraint which untaints, use this method to return the
untainted result. It will prepare the right result whether the user has requested
untainting or not. (Mark Stosberg)
- New built-in constraints added:
FV_min_length(3),
FV_max_length(100),
FV_length_between(3,100),
These constraints can optionally perform untainting. (Mark Stosberg)
- We now work around a bug in File::MMagic which could cause some filehandles
to be corrupted after after the file_format constraint was used.
[BUG FIXES]
- Regexp::Common regular expressions which accepted zero as a valid input would
have wrongly failed their constraints unless untainting was enabled. (Mark Stosberg)
[INTERNALS]
- Improved documentation for built-in constraints. (Mark Stosberg)
4.20 Mon Jun 12 20:44:36 EDT 2006
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- Documentation in Data::FormValidator::Filters has been improved. (Mark Stosberg}
- Added FV_split() a new filter that makes it super-easy to apply the same constraint
to a list of values passed in a single field, such as a comma separated list of e-mail
addresses. (Mark Stosberg).
[BUG FIXES]
- For input given as a hashref containing array references, values could
have been mistakenly modified by reference through filters. We now
explicitly copy elements in these case, to avoid modifying the input.
(RT#19592)
4.14 Fri Feb 17 08:59:40 EST 2006
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- Consider a field with only a null character to be invalid (Jamie Krasnoo)
[BUG FIXES]
- Fix bug in cc_number constraint, which was only present when used as a "constraint_method". (Evan A. Zacks)
4.13
[BUG FIXES]
- Updated overloading syntax to work with Template::Stash (frank)
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
Changes since 3.63
4.12 Thu Jan 5 21:07:50 EST 2006
[INTERNALS]
- Fix test suite to pass when CGI::Simple is not installed
(Lee Carmichael, Davide Dente)
4.11 Tue Jan 3 18:38:23 EST 2006
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- A new constraint for minimum image dimensions was added in
Data::FormValidator::Constraints::Upload (Lee Carmichael)
[INTERNALS]
- refactoring of Upload.pm and t/upload.t (Lee Carmichael)
4.10 Thu Dec 22 19:55:34 EST 2005
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- The msgs key can now take a callback, allow users to override how error
message generation is done. Some alternative message generate routines
will hopefully be published soon. (Cees Hek, Chris Laco and others)
- New profile key: untaint_regexp_map (Michael Peters)
[BUG FIXES]
- bug was fixed for dependent fields that had false values, but were valid
(Emanuele Zeppieri)
- Failed constraints for multiple fields with the same name no longer return duplicate
error messages (Will Hawes)
- value of any_errors was wrongly added to msgs even when there are no errors
(RT#14942, report and test script by Michael Graham)
[INTERNALS]
- bump Date::Calc requirement (RT#15715)
4.02 Wed Aug 31 21:22:58 EST 2005
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- the use of custom signal handers for "die" has now been localized to
avoid interfering with other applications. (Josh Miller).
- initial support for qr in constraint_method profile key
[BUG FIXES]
- Updated ::Constraints example docs to be accurate: recommend :closures, not :all
[INTERNALS]
- provide a more accurate debugging message for constraint_method_regexp_map
4.01 Sat Aug 20 13:16:47 EST 2005
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- get_input_data() now supports the parameters "as_hashref => 1" to
return the input data in a uniform way.
[INTERNALS]
- Constraints may refer to fields that are 'unknown' to
Data::FormValidator. These unknown values will remain unfiltered
as before. (Michael Peters).
- _get_data() was renamed to _get_input_as_hash(). You shouldn't care.
4.00 Sun Aug 14 10:57:25 EST 2005
*** NOTE ***
This a major update with a significant code changes. While the test suite
indicates we have 100% compatibility with 3.x, you are encouraged to test
this release with your own applications before deploying it in a production
environment.
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- The constraints interface has been overhauled to be more intuitive to use
with parameterized constraints. This included added new two new profile
keys: 'constraint_methods' and 'constraint_method_regexp_map'. All of
the old syntax is still supported, but de-emphasized in the documentation.
See RELEASE_NOTES for details.
- A new method has been added to help building custom constraints:
"set_current_constraint_name('foo')" will set the name of a constraint
from within itself. An alias named 'name_this()' is provided for brevity.
See the section on "Writing your own constraints" in DFV::Constraints
for details.
- success() method added to Results object. This is an easy way to check
that there were no missing or invalid fields. (Michael Peters).
- 'separator' was misspelled consistently in the the docs, code and tests.
The proper spelling as well as the legacy typo spelling are now
supported, although the typo'ed version is no longer documented, except
for here. :) Thanks to Terrence Brannon for spotting this.
- The 'msgs' hash in the profile is now validated to make sure it includes only
valid keys. This should help to spot some errors faster.
- ::Constraints::Upload now supports CGI::Simple, thanks to David Emery.
- Documentation for required_regexp has been improved. (William McKee)
- support for coderefs as default values (Marcello)
- Improved field_filters documentation, thanks to Andrew Brosnan.
[BUG FIXES]
- RT#12220: Canadian Province RE were updated. (Steve Simms).
- The preferred MIME type was not being returned by the 'file_format'
constraint for file uploads. This would have only affected cases where
the mime type sent by the browser differed from the one detected by DFV.
Thanks to Randal Schwartz for spotting this. (RT#12744).
- Profile re-use when constraint_regexp_map is used is now fixed
(Thanks to Cees Hek).
- The date_and_time constraint now understands this format: MMDDYYYY.
(RT#12111, thanks to JMAY)
- This one is worth a brief explanation. When this old syntax was used:
my ( $valid, $missing, $invalid, $unknown ) = Data::FormValidator->validate({}, {} );
$invalid would be returned as an empty arrayref if there were no
invalids. This return value was undocumented, and was later changed to
be 'undef' sometime between 3.50 and 3.70. However, I found that some
applications, including Cascade, depended on the undocumented return
value (which they shouldn't have).
I have now reverted the behavior to returning an empty arrayref in this
case, added a test for it, and updated the docs to be explicit about the
return value. This will save some people unexpected breakages when
upgrading DFV from a very old version with very old applications.
Those who use the $results object are unaffected.
[INTERALS]
- Add many failing TODO tests for built-in filters. See t/filters_builtin.t
- A new test was added to check that no warnings are emitted when an untainted
constraint returns undef (Michael Peters)
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.

Change log:
3.63
[BUG FIXES]
- email validation was beefed up to not permit spaces with e-mails
or semi-colons to get through. Thanks to Jason Crome for some tests
to this, and the Mail::VRFY module, which was the source of the
improved RE.
[INTERNALS]
- Added a couple more test to the distribution which were missing in
the MANIFEST
3.62 Fri Oct 8 22:55:49 EST 2004
[INTERNALS]
- Removed experimental label from 'msgs' functionality.
- Beefed up test suite for dependencies and dependency_groups (Drew Taylor)
3.61 Mon Sep 20 18:10:23 EST 2004
[BUG FIXES]
- file_format from ::Constraints::Upload now handles
non-existent files more gracefully. (Evan A. Zacks)
3.60 Mon Sep 20 18:10:23 EST 2004
[BUG FIXES]
- file_max_bytes seemed to never be reporting failure.
