Changes for version 1.999_007 - 2022-09-13

  • Documentation
    • Fix pod formatting issue in Type::Params.
  • Test Suite
    • Improved test cases; now 100% coverage on coveralls.io.
  • Other
    • Minor refactoring, mostly to make things more easily testable.

Changes for version 1.999_006 - 2022-09-12

  • BACK COMPAT
    • If none of a multisig's alternative sigs match the parameter list ${^TYPE_PARAMS_MULTISIG} will be explicitly set to undef, instead of being left as-is.
    • The Eval::TypeTiny::HAS_LEXICAL_VARS constant no longer exists. It was deprecated in Type-Tiny-1.004000 (2018-07-27).
  • Other
    • Get the `multiple` option working with the `signature_for` function from Type::Params.
    • Improved test cases and miscellaneous small bugfixes for slurpy parameters in Type::Params.

Changes for version 1.999_005 - 2022-09-11

  • Bug Fixes
    • What was supposed to be a warning for slurpy+default in Type::Params was throwing an exception. Corrected to be a warning.
  • Documentation
    • Minor improvements to Type::Params documentation.
  • Other
    • The functionality provided by Type::Params::multisig() is now provided in the Type::Params v2 API. (And is slightly more functional!)

Changes for version 1.999_004 - 2022-09-09

  • Documentation
    • Minor documentation clarifications around new constructor methods for Type::Tiny subclasses.
  • Test Suite
    • Add versions of tests for the new Type::Params v2 API which don't rely on Perl 5.20 features.
    • More tests for Type::Tiny::{Class,Duck,Enum,Role} exporting.
  • Packaging
    • Require Exporter::Tiny 1.004001.
  • Other
    • Type::Tiny::{Class,Duck,Enum,Role} subclass Exporter::Tiny instead of handling exports manually.

Changes for version 1.999_003 - 2022-09-09

  • Bug Fixes
    • Setting a default for a slurpy parameter in Type::Params now warns and ignores the default instead of failing to compile because of a syntax error. Zhtwn++
  • Other
    • Added: Move two helper subs out of Type::Library and into Eval::TypeTiny, clean them up, and document them as part of the API (set_subname and type_to_coderef).
    • Added: Type::Tiny now has an `exportables` method which provides a list of functions that the type can export. Type libraries now defer to this when deciding what they can export.
    • Added: Type::Tiny::Class is now an exporter.
    • Added: Type::Tiny::Duck is now an exporter.
    • Added: Type::Tiny::Enum has an is_word_safe method which indicates whether all values in the enumeration are 'words' (i.e. contain only word characters).
    • Added: Type::Tiny::Enum is now an exporter.
    • Added: Type::Tiny::Role is now an exporter.
    • Added: Word-safe enumerations export constants for each value. Branislav Zahradník++
    • Major simplifications of Type::Library internals.
    • The NICE_PROTOTYPES constant has been moved from Type::Library to Eval::TypeTiny, though a copy of it is still available in Type::Library for backwards compatibility.
    • The intersection of two Type::Tiny::Enum objects is now a Type::Tiny::Enum instead of a Type::Tiny::Intersection. Branislav Zahradník++
    • The union of two Type::Tiny::Enum objects is now a Type::Tiny::Enum instead of a Type::Tiny::Union.
    • Type::Params will call default coderefs as a method for signatures where method => 1.

Changes for version 1.999_002 - 2022-09-07

  • Bug Fixes
    • Types::Common was not correctly handling the -sigs export tag.
  • Documentation
    • Fix up some heading levels in the pod for Type::Params.
    • Update NEWS.
  • Test Suite
    • Better tests for `strictness` option in Type::Params.
    • Improved tests for slurpy handling in Type::Params.
    • The internal module Type::Params::Signature now has some tests of its own.
  • Other
    • Minor bugfixes and improvements to slurpy handling in Type::Params.
    • The type_default method will accept parameters, and sort-of curry them.

Changes for version 1.999_001 - 2022-09-05

  • Documentation
    • Fix misspelling of 'GitHub' in documentation.
    • Further revisions of Type::Manual.
    • Update the SYNOPSIS for Types::Standard and Type::Tiny.
  • Test Suite
    • Tests for the `type_default` of all builtin types.
  • Other
    • Changes to the `type_default` for a few parameterized types.
    • Types::Common now also extends Types::TypeTiny.

Changes for version 1.999_000 - 2022-09-04

  • Documentation
    • Updated Type::Tiny::Manual to cover new features.
  • Other
    • %Error::TypeTiny::CarpInternal is now an alias for %Carp::CarpInternal.
    • Added: Type::Tiny `type_default` method.
    • Added: Type::Tiny overloads `/`.
    • Added: Types::Common module.
    • The Type::Params API has had a major overhaul, introducing `signature` and `signature_for` functions. The `compile`, `compile_named`, `compile_named_oo`, `validate`, `validate_named`, `wrap_subs`, and `wrap_methods` functions are now considered the legacy API. There are no plans to drop support for the legacy API in the foreseeable future.
    • Updated: Dropping support for Perl 5.6.1 (which was released in April 2001), 5.6.2 (November 2003), and Perl 5.8.0 (July 2002). Type::Tiny now requires at least Perl 5.8.1.
    • Updated: Require Exporter::Tiny 1.004000+. (Previously required Exporter::Tiny 1.000000.)
