## 4.0.0-beta.6 - 2021-04-17
### Added
* `HttpResponse` and `HttpResponseBuilder` structs. [#2065]

### Changed
* Most error types are now marked `#[non_exhaustive]`. [#2148]

### Added
* `Header` extractor for extracting common HTTP headers in handlers. [#2094]
* Added `TestServer::client_headers` method. [#2097]

### Fixed
* Double ampersand in Logger format is escaped correctly. [#2067]

* `CustomResponder` would return error as `HttpResponse` when `CustomResponder::with_header` failed
  instead of skipping. (Only the first error is kept when multiple error occur) [#2093]

### Removed
* The `client` mod was removed. Clients should now use `awc` directly.
  [871ca5e4](https://github.com/actix/actix-web/commit/871ca5e4ae2bdc22d1ea02701c2992fa8d04aed7)

  behaviour of the `web::Json<T>` extractor. [#2010]

[#1981]: https://github.com/actix/actix-web/pull/1981
[#2010]: https://github.com/actix/actix-web/pull/2010

## 4.0.0-beta.2 - 2021-02-10
### Added
* The method `Either<web::Json<T>, web::Form<T>>::into_inner()` which returns the inner type for
  whichever variant was created. Also works for `Either<web::Form<T>, web::Json<T>>`. [#1894]
* Add `services!` macro for helping register multiple services to `App`. [#1933]
* Enable registering a vec of services of the same type to `App` [#1933]

### Changed
* Rework `Responder` trait to be sync and returns `Response`/`HttpResponse` directly.
  Making it simpler and more performant. [#1891]

* `ServiceRequest::from_request` can no longer fail. [#1893]
* Our `Either` type now uses `Left`/`Right` variants (instead of `A`/`B`) [#1894]
* `test::{call_service, read_response, read_response_json, send_request}` take `&Service`
  in argument [#1905]
* `App::wrap_fn`, `Resource::wrap_fn` and `Scope::wrap_fn` provide `&Service` in closure
  argument. [#1905]
* `web::block` no longer requires the output is a Result. [#1957]

### Fixed
* Multiple calls to `App::data` with the same type now keeps the latest call's data. [#1906]

### Removed
* Public field of `web::Path` has been made private. [#1894]
* Public field of `web::Query` has been made private. [#1894]
* `TestRequest::with_header`; use `TestRequest::default().insert_header()`. [#1869]
* `AppService::set_service_data`; for custom HTTP service factories adding application data, use the
  layered data model by calling `ServiceRequest::add_data_container` when handling
  requests instead. [#1906]
