repoze.component Changelog
==========================

0.4 (2009-07-25)
----------------

- Make compatible with repoze.component 0.4.

- Add ``override`` keys to ``component`` and ``subscriber``
  directives.

0.3 (2009-07-24)
----------------

- Update directive implementations to match newer repoze.component
  calling conventions.

- Provide a ``full`` argument to the ``clear`` method of
  ``repoze.component.registry.Registry`` which clears the registry
  entirely instead of just clearing unnamed registrations.  It
  defaults to false.

0.2 (2009-07-11)
----------------

- Break apart component type storage into ``__component_types__`` and
  ``__inherited_component_types__`` attributes.

  The ``__component_types__`` attribute has become a sequence of
  component types stored directly on an instance as a result of
  ``provides(ob, 'sometype')``.

  The ``__inherited_component_types__`` attribute is stored on a class
  as the result of ``provides(cls, 'sometype')`` ( or via a 
  class-level call to ``provides('a', 'b')`` ).

  We then recompose these two separate attributes into a unified set
  of component types when the ``resolve`` method of the registry is
  called to create an effective list of component types.

- ``repoze.component.directlyprovidedby`` now returns only the types
  directly provided by an instance (its ``__component_types__``);
  previously it would also return the inherited component types
  (because there was no such thing as an inherited component type).
  However, ``repoze.component.providedby`` continues to return all
  component types (both direct and inherited, as well as default
  types).

- Add ``onlyprovides`` API, which overwrites any existing
  ``__component_types__`` (or ``__inherited_component_types__``)
  attribute on the object.  It otherwise acts just like ``provides``.

0.1 (2009-06-22)
----------------

- Initial release.
