Hi Carl,
Thank you for this new release.
I found a thing that doesn't work as before and I don't know what was
changed.
I use HTML::FormFu with a DBIx::Class column inflator for uploading files
from the File fields, similar to DBIx::Class::InflateColumn::File and for
specifying the directory that will get the uploaded files, I used a
configuration like the one below in the DBIC Result classes:
file_upload_path => '__path_to(root,static,anunturi)__',
Actually, I have this path defined with __path_to()__ in the main
configuration file of the application and then I use that configuration in
the DBIC Result classes.
Until this last version of H::F it has been working fine and that string was
expanded to the right path by Catalyst::Plugin::ConfigLoader, but now it is
used literally and it creates a directory like __path_to(.....)__ so it
doesn't work anymore.
Do you have any idea where could be the change that make it not work?
Thanks.

Subject: [html-formfu] new dists - major changes!
I've uploaded new releases of HTML-FormFu, HTML-FormFu-Model-DBIC &
Catalyst-Controller-HTML-FormFu to pause, and they'll be on cpan soon.
I've been working on the moose branch lately, and it's almost ready to
merge back into trunk.
The benefits this will bring are primarily clearer code, using less
custom-idioms and no multiple-inheritance; making it easier for others
to understand and contribute.
NEW DEPRECATIONS
In the move to using moose attributes, we're no longer going to be
able to support being able to pass flattened arrays/hashes to methods
that store the values as an array/hash-ref.
e.g.
$constraint->others( 'foo', 'bar' );
is no longer allowed, rather than the explicit:
$constraint->others( [ 'foo', 'bar' ] );
This will only affect perl code - not any forms that are defined only
in config forms, so hopefully any changes required will be minimal.
To help with migration, this latest release of HTML-FormFu will issue
a warning if any attribute method is called like this.
PREVIOUSLY DEPRECATED CODE REMOVED
All methods / config-options in these 3 modules that have been
previously deprecated and were issuing warnings have now been removed.
These have all been deprecated for at least a year, so don't say you
weren't warned! :)
INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES IN BEHAVIOUR
Unfortunately, since Catalyst v5.80000, file-uploads haven't worked
properly with HTML::FormFu::MultiForm
To fix this, I've had to change HTML::FormFu::QueryType::Catalyst so
that we no-longer keep a reference to the Catalyst::Request::Upload
object.
Because of this, file-upload objects no longer have copy_to(),
link_to() or catalyst_upload() methods.
This is an immediate change, with no deprecation period!
OTHER CHANGES
HTML-FormFu 0.08002
- Fix: Constraint::Equal with not(1) set no longer sets an error when
both
field values are empty strings.
- Fix: An empty block with nested_name set, containing Label elements
and
no other fields, was causing the block's nested_name to be added to
$form->valid(). RT #54967
- Constraints that inherit from HTML::FormFu::Constraint::_others have
a new
'other_siblings' option, which auto-generates the 'others' list.
- Constraint 'when' condition now supports new 'fields' and 'any_field'
options.
HTML-FormFu-Model-DBIC 0.08002
- many-to-many handling with restricting condition tests and code
to prevent deleting outside of restriction in update code.
- New 'others' option for Constraint::DBIC::Unique.
- HTML::FormFu::Constraint::DBIC::Unique is now included in the
distribution
