Changes for version 0.56

  • For those not following the series of dev releases, there are several major changes in this release of Moose. ! Moose::init_meta should now be called as a method. See the docs for details.
    • Major performance improvements by nothingmuch.
    • New modules for extension writers, Moose::Exporter and Moose::Util::MetaRole by Dave Rolsky.
    • Lots of doc improvements and additions, especially in the cookbook sections.
    • Various bug fixes.
  • Removed all references to the experimental-but-no-longer-needed Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToMetaclassInstance.
  • Require Class::MOP 0.65.

Changes for version 0.55_04

  • Moose::Util::MetaRole
  • Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
    • This simplifies the application of roles to any meta class, as well as the base object class. Reimplemented metaclass traits using this module. (Dave Rolsky)
  • Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
    • This a new recipe, an overview of various ways to write Moose extensions (Dave Rolsky)
  • Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe3
  • Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe4
    • These used to be Extending::Recipe1 and Extending::Recipe2, respectively.

Changes for version 0.55_03

  • No changes from 0.55_02 except increasing the Class::MOP dependency to 0.64_07.

Changes for version 0.55_02

  • Makefile.PL and Moose.pm
    • explicitly require Perl 5.8.0+ (Dave Rolsky)
  • Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
    • Fix warnings from find_type_constraint if the type is not found (t0m).
  • Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
    • Predicate methods (equals/is_a_type_of/is_subtype_of) now return false if the type you specify cannot be found in the type registry, rather than throwing an unhelpful and coincidental exception. (t0m).
      • added docs & test for this (t0m)
  • Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Registry
    • add_type_constraint now throws an exception if a parameter is not supplied (t0m).
      • added docs & test for this (t0m)
  • Moose::Cookbook::FAQ
    • Added a faq entry on the difference between "role" and "trait" (t0m)
  • Moose::Meta::Role
    • Fixed a bug that caused role composition to not see a required method when that method was provided by another role being composed at the same time. (Dave Rolsky)
      • test and bug finding (tokuhirom)

Changes for version 0.55_01

  • !! Calling Moose::init_meta as a function is now !! !! deprecated. Please see the Moose.pm docs for details. !!
  • Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
    • Fix inlined constructor so that values produced by default or builder methods are coerced as required. (t0m)
      • added test for this (t0m)
  • Moose::Meta::Attribute
    • A lazy attribute with a default or builder did not attempt to coerce the default value. The immutable code _did_ coerce. (t0m)
      • added test for this (t0m)
  • Moose::Exporter
    • This is a new helper module for writing "Moose-alike" modules. This should make the lives of MooseX module authors much easier. (Dave Rolsky)
  • Moose
  • Moose::Cookbook::Meta::Recipe5
    • Implemented metaclass traits (and wrote a recipe for it):
      • use Moose -traits => 'Foo'
      • This should make writing small Moose extensions a little easier (Dave Rolsky)
  • Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe1
    • Removed any examples of direct hashref access, and applied an editorial axe to reduce verbosity. (Dave Rolsky)
  • Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe1
    • Also applied an editorial axe here. (Dave Rolsky)
  • Moose
  • Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe1
  • Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2
    • Rewrote extending and embedding moose documentation and recipes to use Moose::Exporter (Dave Rolsky)
  • Moose
  • Moose::Role
    • These two modules now warn when you load them from the main package "main" package, because we will not export sugar to main. Previously it just did nothing. (Dave Rolsky)
  • Moose::Role
    • Now provide an init_meta method just like Moose.pm, and you can call this to provide an alternate role metaclass. (Dave Rolsky and nothingmuch)
    • get_method_map now respects the package cache flag (nothingmuch)
  • Moose::Meta::Role
    • Two new methods - add_method and wrap_method_body (nothingmuch)
  • many modules
    • Optimizations including allowing constructors to accept hash refs, making many more classes immutable, and making constructors immutable. (nothingmuch)
