Changes for version 0.03 - 2012-09-30

  • Various hacks to make Type::Constraint objects play nice with Moose. Needs changes to Moose to work properly, however.
  • The message generator sub is no longer called as a method, it is simply called as a sub, so it doesn't receive the type as an argument.
  • The inline environment variable names used for each type are unique so types will not step on each other if you want to inline more than one type check in the same scope.
  • Non-inlined type coercions were completely broken.
  • Added $type->is_same_type_as and $type->is_a_type_of methods.
  • The Maybe type was a subtype of Ref in the code, which is wrong. It is now a subtype of Item.
  • This module now explicitly requires Perl 5.10.
