The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 0.047_02 - 2014-07-23

  • Documentation
    • Type::Tiny::Manual no longer says that Perl 5.6.x support is at risk.
  • Test Suite
    • Add tests explicitly testing Type::Tiny objects conversion to Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint and Mouse::Meta::TypeConstraint objects.
    • Include test case relating to Type::Tiny::XS GitHub issue #1. <https://github.com/tobyink/p5-type-tiny-xs/issues/1>
    • Stop using base.pm.
    • Test exceptions thrown by Type::Tiny::Class.
    • Test exceptions thrown by Type::Tiny::Enum.
    • Test exceptions thrown by Type::Tiny::Role.
    • Test the Error::TypeTiny::Compilation exception class.
    • Test the Error::TypeTiny::WrongNumberOfParameters exception class.
  • Other
    • Allow Enums containing hyphens to be accellerated by Type::Tiny::XS.
    • Test::Tiny::Class should stop using Class::ISA. Instead, if mro.pm is not available, use a private sub stolen from MRO::Compat.
    • Type::Tiny::Intersection is now XS-accelerated. <https://gist.github.com/tobyink/71eab715ac16178cbcfb>
    • Type::Tiny::Union is now XS-accelerated. <https://gist.github.com/tobyink/71eab715ac16178cbcfb>

Changes for version 0.047_01 - 2014-07-21

  • Bug Fixes
    • Fix a silly test case that was relying on Exporter::Tiny to always load B.pm. (Current versions of Exporter::Tiny do load B.pm, but future versions might not.)
  • Documentation
    • Better document which type constraints will be accelerated by Type::Tiny::XS and Mouse.
  • Other
    • Type::Tiny::Enum is now XS-accelerated. <https://gist.github.com/tobyink/dfdf9bb826a530781e3d>
    • Types::Common::Numeric::PositiveInt is now XS-accelerated. <https://gist.github.com/tobyink/dcc15cf283c90c749501>
    • Types::Common::Numeric::PositiveOrZeroInt is now XS-accelerated. <https://gist.github.com/tobyink/dcc15cf283c90c749501>
    • Types::Common::String::NonEmptyStr is now XS-accelerated. <https://gist.github.com/tobyink/dcc15cf283c90c749501>
    • Types::Standard::Map is now XS-accelerated. <https://gist.github.com/tobyink/e733f839cecc0dd193a6>
    • Types::Standard::Tuple is now XS-accelerated. <https://gist.github.com/tobyink/e733f839cecc0dd193a6>
    • Unify _USE_XS/_USE_MOUSE logic in Type::Tiny. (It was previously scattered across Types::Standard and various other modules.)
