+
+SVN revision 519
+
+Deprecated:
+ Directly accessing the attributes of the request object, or the parameters
+ in $r->params, or anything else, is DEPRECATED and likely to break in future
+ releases. Be good, and use proper method calls.
+
+ Maypole no longer uses Class::DBI::AsForm, instead Maypole::Model::CDBI::AsForm
+ has replaced it.
+
+ $config->{$table}{required_cols} is deprecated, please use $class->required_columns instead
+
+
+Incompatible API changes:
+ Maypole
+ - is_applicable() deprecated for is_model_applicable(). is_applicable is
+ an alias for is_model_applicable now.
+ Maypole::Constants
+ - ERROR constant now 500, previously -1 (bug #18901)
+ Maypole::Model
+ - delete and search actions are now deprecated - use do_search and do_delete
+ instead
+ Maypole::View
+ - table name rather than moniker is used to find templates
+
+API additions and enhancements:
+ Maypole::Application:
+ - -Init flag (wishlist 14123)
+ - recognises Maypole::HTTPD and installs Maypole::HTTPD::Frontend
+ as its frontend
+ Maypole::Headers:
+ add() alias to push() (wishlist 14142)
+ Maypole:
+ - get_session() method (no-op)
+ - get_user() method (no-op)
+ - get_session() is called during handler_guts() before authenticate()
+ - new preprocess_path() method added and called by parse_path(),
+ parse_path() will leave any properties set by preprocess_path() in
+ place
+ - start_request_hook() added
+ - status() attribute added (though only used by start_request_hook()
+ so far)
+ - setup() split into setup(), setup_model(), and load_model_subclass()
+ - added new path processing methods for ssl and default table/action

+ - now uses File::MMagic::XS to guess mime type of output unless already set
+ - new component method provides Maypole::Component functionality
+ - new object method gets/sets first/only object in objects
+ Maypole::Model
+ - do_delete, do_search in place of delete/search actions
+ Maypole::View::TT:
+ - new report_error method
+ - new embedded error report page in __DATA__
+ Templates:
+ - Improved pager macro/include

+ undefined element

+2.06 Wed Dec 29 01:30:00 2004
+ Fixes:
+ - Minor restructuring of the manual so search.cpan.org indexes it better

+ $r->headers_in & $r->headers_out (Maypole::Headers)
+ - Support for compound primary keys for Maypole::Model::CDBI classes
+ - Template toolkit objects are configurable with M::Config->view_options

+ Maypole::Config->view_options to improve performance
+
+ Internal changes:
