Changes for version 5.80012 - 2009-09-09

  • Bug fixes:
    • Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
    • Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
    • Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is now loaded at most once + tests.
    • Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in is returned to 'actions'.
    • Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
  • Refactoring / cleanups:
    • Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
  • Tests:
    • Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be run by authors to stop it being broken again.
    • Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
