Changes for version 5.90012 - 2012-05-16

  • Distribution META.yml changes:
    • author key is now correct, rather than what Module::Install mis-parses from the documentation.
    • x_authority key added.
  • Bug fixes:
    • Fix request body parameters being multiply rebuilt. Fixes both RT#75607 and CatalystX::DebugFilter
    • Make plugin de-duplication work as intended originally, as whilst duplicate plugins are totally unwise, the C3 error given to the user is less than helpful.
    • Remove dependence on obscure behaviour in B::Hooks::EndOfScope for backward compatibility. This fixes issues with behaviour changes in bleadperl. RT#76437
    • Work around Moose bug RT#7536 which breaks Catalyst::Controller::DBIC::API.
  • Documentation:
    • Fix documentation in Catalyst::Component to show attributes and calling readers, rather than accessing elements in the $self->{} hash directly.
    • Add note in Catalyst::Component to strongly disrecommend $self->config
    • Fix vague 'checkout' wording in Catalyst::Utils. RT#77000
    • Fix documentation for the 'secure' method in Catalyst:Request. RT#76710
