[FEATURES]
- PSGI support is improved. CGI::Application::Dispatch is now been
rewritten and is included in this distribution. It is no longer a
wrapper around the older dispatcher, but is completely PSGI-native.
Performance should be improved a bit as well.
[THINGS THAT MIGHT BREAK YOUR CODE]
As part of the significant update to PSGI support, you'll need to update a
couple lines of code in your "dispatch.cgi" script if you were using an
older version of CGI::Application::Dispatch::PSGI. See the section on
"Backwards Compatibility" in that documentation.
[INTERNALS]
- CGI::Application 4.5 is now required for the newer native PSGI support.
- Exceptions in CGI::Application::Dispatch::PSGI are now handled with
HTTP::Exception. This in turn depends on HTTP::Status, which is
currently in a distribution which depends on HTML::Parser, which depends
having a C-compiler available. I don't consider this ideal, as I'd like
to be able to support the easy installation of a pure-Perl
CGI::Application stack. This could possibly be addressed in the future by
removing the false dependency on a C-compiler from HTTP::Status, or we
could return to use Exception::Class directly for exception handling.
The except format of the default thrown exceptions may change in the
future.
2.18 Sep 9, 2010
- Update Build.PL to require a newer version of "version", to address
a rare installation problem. (RT#56283) Thanks to Jim Brandt and others.
2.17 Dec 30, 2009
- Update examples to use FindBin::Real instead of FindBin, since FindBin is not
fully mod_perl compatible. (Mark Stosberg)
- Fix typo in POD (Alexander Becker)
2.16 Mar 23, 2009
- Fix: "$app->run() error handler breaks exception objects." RT#43340 (dekimsey)
- Documentation improvements (Dave Baker, thinc)
- remove "Makefile.PL", which appears to related to some test failures. Build.PL
seems to work reliably. If removing Makefile.PL is a problem for you, maybe you have
a better solution to RT#39793: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39793
(Mark Stosberg)
2.15 Dec 4, 2008
- Logging improvement: Quit duplicating $ENV{REQUEST_URI} for Not Found requests (Mark Stosberg)
- Logging improvement: Remove stray "'" character (Mark Stosberg)
2.14 Nov 2, 2008
- New feature: $ENV{PATH_INFO} is now abstracted through dispatch_path(). (RT#34069, Bradley Bailey)
- Attempted fix for "Couldn't open t/TEST.PL" error, RT#39793. Add comments to that ticket
if you still have "make test" problems with Apache::Test. (Puneet Kishor, Kevin, Mark Stosberg)
