php Add comments

Pojawiła się najnowsza beta fremework’a do PHP symfony. Obecna wersja już pozostanie raczej bez zmian , pozostało jeszcze testowanie i odrobaczanie i sądząc po tempie prac nad projektem możemy się spodziewać wersji finalnej.

Poniżej przedstawiona lista nowości:

New Command Line Utility Completely rewritten from scratch (bye, pake!) Now based on an Object-Oriented subframework Allows for unordered named options Tasks are extensible Built-in help (php symfony help [taskname]) Reliable, easy to use and intuitive
New form subframework Forms are now classes Form Widgets represent the view layer. The subframework provides more widgets than symfony 1.0 had form helpers. Native and easy handling of validation, fillin, request binding Native CSRF protection Native file upload validation Support for nested validations and widgets The Most Beautiful Form Framework You’ve Ever Seen In PHP – and you can even use it outside of symfony! Optional (your old forms still work!)
New plugin manager Completely rewritten from scratch Supports dependencies between plugins New options for more control over what you install (–install_deps, –release, –stability) Support for the REST API of a PEAR channel
Improved ORM integration Propel has been updated, and is now a plugin, bundled by default with symfony 1.1 Behaviors can now be declared directly in the schema A schema can be overridden by another one New configure:database task to update both the propel.ini and databases.yml dsn from the command line More hooks in the code – that means more opportunities for extensions and behaviors Better i18n support ($article->getTitle(‘fr’)) Improved dump/load, dealing with FK seamlessly YAML schema generated from a database is now more readable Support for the new Form subframework
Improved Routing The routing now has a cache layer: That’s a massive boost for pages with a lot of URLs to generate Token separator in routes is no more limited to ‘/’. You can now use any characters, for instance to allow routes like /article/:title.:format PJS and multiformat are on the way The routing class is not a singleton anymore – that means that an application can have access to another application’s routing objects
Improved internationalization I18n now uses the same caching techniques as the view, for faster-than-ever template generation A new task can find untranslated text strings in templates and add them to the dictionaries (symfony i18n:extract) Another new task can find text strings without __() in templates and report them (symfony i18n:find) XLIFF and gettext dictionaries can now be in multiple directories The I18n class is not a singleton anymore
Improved caching New caching factories, allowing to use Memcached or APC as caching storage Ability to remove the cache from another application The view cache manager now accepts wildcards in the remove() calls, whatever the caching factory you use Partials and components in cache can now add JavaScripts and stylesheets in the main response New general caching factory, for your non view-related caching needs The function cache can now use any caching factory (not only sfFileCache)
Improved configuration The Spyc parser was dumped, in favor of a brand new, home-made, more robust YAML parser Incorrect YAML files now throw a helpful error message Symfony can auto-check that it can run (check_configuration.php checks PHP version, extensions, etc.) The project and application configurations are now classes, offering convenient methods to customize the project directory structure and loaders An application can access another application’s configuration
Improved Tests A performance tool allows to measure the speed difference between each version of symfony – objectively CSS3 selectors are now supported in the sfDomCSSSelector (:contains(), :first, etc.)
A gazillion little improvements that will make your life easier Actions can now end by renderPartial() or renderComponent() sfWebRequest now has an isMethod() method (if($request->isMethod(‘post’))) Support for many-to-many relationships in fixtures Ability to execute an action on a selection of entries in the admin generator More information in the Web Debug Toolbar (PHP extensions, sfUser attributes, etc.) Improved error messages in Phing
