2011-05-19 v1.047
[Bug Fixes]

• $Response->Expires("30M") wasn't documented. Now it is.
• $Response->Expires wasn't working properly. Now it is. (Always ended up with pre-epoch expiration times).

2011-05-03 v1.046
[Bug Fixes]

• $Response->Redirect(...) wasn't returning '301' - now it does.

2011-05-03 v1.045
[Bug Fixes]

• Actually it turned out that setting $Session->is_read_only(1) DID prevent $Session->save() from working. This is now fixed to match the documentation.

2011-05-01 v1.044

[Bug Fixes]

• ASP4::ModPerl now does the Right Thing when a non-200 response is encountered.
  • 500 response does not result in an "encoding error" in firefox.
  • 200 (or 0 response) does the right thing.
  • non-200 (and non-500) response does the right thing (eg: 401)
• ASP4::SessionStateManager now checks $s->is_changed before checking $s->{__lastMod} date before deciding whether is should persist its changes in ->save().

[New Features]

• $Session->is_read_only(1) is new. Setting it to a true value (eg: 1) will prevent the default behavior of calling $Session->save() at the end of each successful request.

2011-04-08 v1.043

• Documentation overhaul.

2011-03-23 v1.042

• Fixed sporadic error in master pages that looks like this: Can't call method "Write" on an undefined value at /tmp/PAGE_CACHE/BStat/mastersglobal_asp.pm line 1.
• Apparently $s->init_asp_objects($context) was not getting called before the master page's run() method was called, resulting in a call to $Response->Write(...) before $Response had been initialized.

2010-11-11 v1.041

• ASP4::UserAgent calls all cleanup handlers registered via $Server->RegisterCleanup(sub { }, @args) at the end of each request, not when the ASP4::Mock::Pool object's DESTROY method is called. This fixes a condition which caused conflict when a Class::DBI::Lite ORM is used and the ASP4 application is executed via the `asp4` helper script.

2010-10-25 v1.040

• 1.039 introduced a bug that could cause session-id conflicts in the asp_sessions table.
• This release fixes that bug.

2010-10-25 v1.039

• Session expiration now happens exclusively on the server, not as the result of an expiring session cookie.

2010-10-21 v1.038

• Another stab at getting http response codes right for errors.

2010-09-25 v1.037

• Added a couple tweaks here and there to make ASP4 run on Windows a little easier:
  • $Config->web->page_cache_root now does the Right Thing on linux & win32.
  • $Config->web->page_cache_root is automatically created if it does not exist.

2010-09-21 v1.036

• Added ASP4::StaticHandler to process requests for static files - like images, css, etc.

2010-09-17 v1.035

• It turns out that if you close the client socket, some browsers complain (Chrome). Upgrade recommended.

2010-09-17 v1.034

• Non-2xx responses are more returned more correctly, albeit with empty bodies.
• HTTPHandler now caches the @ISA tree in RAM, offering a slight performance boost.
• Added missing '$r->headers_in' method to ASP4::Mock::RequestRec.

2010-05-26 v1.033

• Fixed more issues related to running multiple web applications under different VirutalHosts on the same server. This time related to how Filters and Handlers are cached - now not only by URL but also by $ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT}.

2010-05-20 v1.032

• Fixed several issues related to running multiple web applications under different VirtualHosts on the same server.

2010-05-19 v1.031

• Migrated from Ima::DBI to Ima::DBI::Contextual.

2010-05-18 v1.030

• $ENV{HTTP_HOST} is set to $r->hostname or $ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT} in ASP4::ModPerl and ASP4::UserAgent, respectively.

2010-04-18 v1.029

• The document root was not always set properly in some very, very strange circumstances.
• Upgrade recommended.

2010-04-18 v1.028

• $Request->Reroute($uri) no longer changes $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to $uri.

2010-04-15 v1.027

• ASP4::Request was not properly URLDecoding parameters. Now it does.

2010-04-13 v1.026

• Now both POST'ed and GET'ed parameters are added to $Form. This means that if you... <form action="/page/?foo=abc" method="post"><input name="bar" value="123" /></form> ...both foo=abc and bar=123 will be in $Form. Before this update, only bar=123 would be there, and foo=abc would be lost.

2010-04-06 v1.025

• If Router::Generic is installed, ASP4::ConfigNode::Web will create $Config->web->router based on the "routes" segment of asp4-config.json.
• No documentation about this yet.

2010-03-22 v1.024

• $Request->Reroute() with additional querystring parameters was not adding those extra parameters to $Form. Now it does.

2010-03-08 v1.023

• ASP4::HTTPContext now checks to see if any RequestFilters match a uri before returning a 404. This is helpful for SEO optimizations.
• New feature: $Request->Reroute("/new-uri/?foo=bar")
  • Also very useful for SEO.

2010-03-08 v1.022

• asphelper's final instructions are now more clear and concise.
• Fixes a bug that caused active sessions to timeout as though inactive simply because they were not changed before the timeout occurred. Now, $Session->save() checks to see if it's been more than 60 seconds since the last time the __lastMod was changed - and if it has been more than 60 seconds, the session is saved and the __lastMod value is updated to time() - thus preventing expiry of active sessions.

2010-03-08 v1.021

• Removed a warning that popped up now and then about the use of an uninitialized value.
• Added a more informative "Yay you're finished!" message after running asphelper.

2010-03-04 v1.020

• Now asphelper will output sbin/ddl.sql, which contains the structure of the asp_sessions database table. This is a handy place to start describing the database structure of a web application.
• If $Config->web->data_connections->session->session_timeout is set to '*' then the session lasts as long as the browser keeps the cookie around.
• 20% performance increase by using Cwd::fastcwd() instead of Cwd::cwd() and a few other minor tweaks.

2010-03-02 v1.019

• Fixed a bug in asphelper that caused some problems creating a skeleton website.

2010-03-01 v1.018

• Updated asphelper script so that the POD on CPAN is not contaminated with POD from within one of the modules that asphelper generates.
• Now asphelper will not create a Class::DBI::Lite model class unless Class::DBI::Lite is installed.

2010-03-01 v1.017

• Updated asphelper script to only accept options on the command-line, like "normal" scripts.

2010-02-28 v1.016

• A vestigial "use encoding 'utf8'" was removed from ASP4::Server.
• It was causing Apache to segfault on ubuntu 9.10.

2010-02-19 v1.015

• Hostnames like http://myapplication/ were not setting session cookies properly.
• $Config->data_connections->session->cookie_domain should set to "" in these cases.
• $Response->SetCookie accepts the "" value for domain also.
• The result is that no "domain=xyz" attribute is given to these cookies.

2010-02-18 v1.014

• $Response->ContentType now functions correctly.
• Upgrade mandatory!

2010-02-18 v1.013

• ASP4::HandlerResolver was not properly remembering timestamps on handler files. This resulted in unnecessary reloads of handlers that had not been changed.

2010-02-18 v1.012

• MANIFEST was missing a few files that caused tests to fail.

2010-02-17 v1.011
! Upgrade Recommended !

• $Response->SetCookie and $Response->ContentType were not functioning properly.
• Added new method $Response->SetHeader.

2010-02-10 v1.010
! UPGRADE SERIOUSLY RECOMMENDED !

• In an environment with multiple VirtualHosts running ASP4 web applications, ASP4::HandlerResolver's %HandlerCache and %FileTimes hashes were shared between all VirtualHosts. This means that if you had 2 web apps (Foo and Bar) then "/index.asp" on "Foo" might get handled by "Bar::indexasp" or vice versa.

2010-02-08 v1.009
! Upgrade Recommended !

• ASP4::ModPerl sets $ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT} = $r->document_root before doing anything else.
• The scaffold website output by 'asphelper' had some minor bugs:
  • email was sometimes referred to as email_address
  • The error message for the 'message' field was displaying the wrong error.

2010-02-07 v1.008

• Multi-value form parameters (eg 3 checkboxes with the same name) will now correctly appear as an arrayref in $Form, instead of 3 values joined with a null byte.

2010-01-31 v1.007

• $FileUpload->SaveAs("/path/to/file.txt") will now create "/path" and "/path/to" before writing "/path/to/file.txt".

2010-01-27 v1.006

• Sometimes changes in MasterPages are not immediately reflected in child pages. This release attempts to correct this bug.

2010-01-25 v1.005

• Request Filters were not always matching properly because of a regexp bug in ASP4::FilterResolver.

2010-01-22 v1.004

• $ENV{REQUEST_URI} was not getting set properly - this is now fixed.

2009-12-22 v1.003

• $ENV{HTTP_REFERER} can be set and preserved properly.
• conf/asp4-config.json will be reloaded if it is modified. This means that the server does not have to be restarted for changes to asp4-config.json to take effect.
• Added ASP4::TransHandler

2009-12-17 v1.002

• %ENV is no longer clobbered by ASP4::UserAgent.

2009-12-16 v1.001

• Fixed a bug that prevented ASP4 for reliably detecting when an ASP script had been updated.

2009-12-15 v1.000

• Ready for production use.

2009-12-14 v0.001_03 .. v0.001_05

• Just getting the Makefile.PL prerequisites correct.

2009-12-13 v0.001_02

• Added POD.

2009-12-13 v0.001_01

• Initial release
