Revision history for Perl extension CGI::Application::Dispatch. 3.12 September 10th, 2012 [BUG FIXES] - Further fix diagnostic message in some cases when exceptions are thrown. (Michael Lackhoff) 3.11 September 10th, 2012 (No code changes) [INTERNALS] - Fixed test for rethrowing HTTP::Exception objects (Graham TerMarsch) 3.10 September 2nd, 2012 [NEW FEATURES] - CGI::Application::Dispatch::PSGI now allows exceptions thrown as HTTP::Exception objects to bubble up in some cases. See the new documentation section on "Exception Handling" for details. (Mark Stosberg, Graham TerMarsch, RT#79022) [BUG FIXES] - When auto_rest was enabled and no run mode was found, a 404 could have been returned instead of defaulting to start mode. We now correctly default to the start_mode(). (James Q.L., Ron Savage, Mark Stosberg) [DOCUMENTATION] - Docs have been expanded to explain how /foo/:rm? resolves, and interaction with start_mode() when no run mode is found. (Mark Stosberg) [INTERNALS] - Fix diagnostic message in some cases when exceptions are thrown (Michael Lackhoff) - Added test coverage for auto_rest to CGI::Application::Dispatch::PSGI (Mark Stosberg) - POD formatting fix in Dispatch.pm - Fix Perl 5.14 compatibility warning (chorny, RENEEB@cpan.org, SILASMONK@cpan.org) 3.07 September 9th, 2011 Fix t/cgi.t test failures caused by Try::Tiny refactor in 3.05 (Yoshihiro Sasaki) 3.06 September 9th, 2011 Typo fix in "use" statement, introduced in 3.05 (Nicholas Bamber) 3.05 September 5th, 2011 Removed Exception::Class::TryCatch with the already required Try::Tiny thereby eliminating one dependency. (Timothy Appnel) 3.04 June 29th, 2011 No code changes. [DOCUMENTATION] - spelling fixes (Nicholas Bamber) 3.03 June 25th, 2011 No code changes. [INTERNALS] - further dependency refinement and a typo fix. (Nicholas Bamber) 3.02 June 24th, 2011 No code changes. [INTERNALS] - further refined dependency definitions. (Nicholas Bamber) 3.01 Jun 23, 2011 No code changes. [INTERNALS] - Fixed Build.PL issue that was causing tests to fail in a lot of environments. (Brad Oaks) - cleaned up MANIFEST 3.00 Jun 16, 2011 [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.
