Changes for version 0.08126_01 - 2011-01-14

  • New Features / Changes
    • Schema/resultsource instances are now crossreferenced via a new system guaranteeing leak-free mutually assured destruction
    • Switch to a warning when find() is invoked with both a 'key' argument and a NULL-containing condition to satisfy the named constraint. Previously (starting with 0.08124) an exception was thrown
    • Switch to a warning when a commit is attempted with an out-of-sync transaction_depth (someone issued a begin externally to DBIC). Previously (starting with 0.08124) an exception was thrown
  • Fixes
    • Revert default selection to being lazy again (eagerness introduced in 0.08125) - fixes DBIx::Class::Helper::ResultSet::RemoveColumns
    • Fix losing order of columns provided in select/as (regression from 0.08125)
    • Unaliased "dark" selectors no longer throw off prefetch
    • Fix proper composition of bind values across all possible SQL areas ( group_by => \[ ... ] now works properly )
    • Allow populate to skip empty has_many relationships which makes it easier to pass HashRefInflator data directly to ->populate
    • Improve freeze/thaw semantics and error messages (RT#62546)
    • Fix inconsistency in Manual::Features (RT#64500)
    • Fix incorrect SQL when using for => 'shared' with MySQL (RT#64590)
  • Misc
    • Fix test warning on win32 - at this point the test suite is warning-free on all known OSes
    • Require newest namespace::clean which in turn depends on new installable Package::Stash
