In Python 2.5 the + exceptions are ``webob.Response`` objects. + +Backward Incompatible Changes +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +* The ``Response`` constructor has changed: it is now ``Response([body], + [status], ...)`` (before it was ``Response([status], [body], ...)``). + Body may be str or unicode. + +* The ``Response`` class defaults to ``text/html`` for the + Content-Type, and ``utf8`` for the charset (charset is only set on + ``text/*`` and ``application/*+xml`` responses). + +Bugfixes and Small Changes +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +* Use ``BaseCookie`` instead of ``SimpleCookie`` for parsing cookies. + +* Added ``resp.write(text)`` method, which is equivalent to + ``resp.body += text`` or ``resp.unicode_body += text``, depending on + the type of ``text``. + +* The ``decode_param_names`` argument (used like + ``Request(decode_param_names=True)``) was being ignored. + +* Unicode decoding of file uploads and file upload filenames were + causing errors when decoding non-file-upload fields (both fixes from + Ryan Barrett). + +0.8.5 +----- + +* Added response methods ``resp.encode_content()`` and + ``resp.decode_content()`` to gzip or ungzip content. + +* ``Response(status=404)`` now works (before you would have to use + ``status="404 Not Found"``). + +* Bugfix (typo) with reusing POST body. + +* Added ``226 IM Used`` response status. + +* Backport of ``string.Template`` included for Python 2.3 + compatibility. + +0.8.4 +----- + +* ``__setattr__`` would keep ``Request`` subclasses from having + properly settable environ proxies (like ``req.path_info``). + +0.8.3 +----- + +* ``request.POST`` was giving FieldStorage objects for *every* + attribute, not just file uploads. This is fixed now. + + +* Added request attributes ``req.server_name`` and ``req.server_port`` + for the environ keys ``SERVER_NAME`` and ``SERVER_PORT``. + +* Avoid exceptions in ``req.content_length``, even if + ``environ['CONTENT_LENGTH']`` is somehow invalid. + +0.8.2 +----- + +* Python 2.3 compatibility: backport of ``reversed(seq)`` + +* Made separate ``.exception`` attribute on ``webob.exc`` objects, + since new-style classes can't be raised as exceptions. + +* Deprecate ``req.postvars`` and ``req.queryvars``, instead using the + sole names ``req.GET`` and ``req.POST`` (also ``req.str_GET`` and + ``req.str_POST``). The old names give a warning; will give an error + in next release, and be completely gone in the following release. + +* ``req.user_agent`` is now just a simple string (parsing the + User-Agent header was just too volatile, and required too much + knowledge about current browsers). Similarly, + ``req.referer_search_query()`` is gone. + +* Added parameters ``version`` and ``comment`` to + ``Response.set_cookie()``, per William Dode's suggestion. + +* Was accidentally consuming file uploads, instead of putting the + ``FieldStorage`` object directly in the parameters. + +0.8.1 +----- + +* Added ``res.set_cookie(..., httponly=True)`` to set the ``HttpOnly`` + attribute on the cookie, which keeps Javascript from reading the + cookie. + +* Added some WebDAV-related responses to ``webob.exc`` + +* Set default ``Last-Modified`` when using ``response.cache_expire()`` + (fixes issue with Opera) + +* Generally fix ``.cache_control`` + +0.8 +--- + +First release. Nothing is new, or everything is new, depending on how +you think about it. +
