Changes for version 5.80014_02 - 2009-12-01
- Bug fixes:
- Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
- Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
- Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx). (RT#50082)
- Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO} in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
- Refactoring / cleanups:
- NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run (and then skipped) normally.
- Documentation:
- Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
Changes for version 5.80014_01 - 2009-11-22
- Bug fixes:
- Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies on the old behaviour.
- Refactoring / cleanups:
- Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component are deprecated and now issue warnings.
