Upgrading Instructions for PRADO Framework v3.1.9 ================================================= !!!IMPORTANT!!! The following upgrading instructions are cumulative. That is, if you want to upgrade from version A to version C and there is version B between A and C, you need to following the instructions for both A and B. Upgrading from v3.1.8 --------------------- - An new "TranslateDefaultCulture" option has been added to TGlobalization that lets you choose if Prado have to translate the default culture (default up to 3.1.7) or not (changed in 3.1.8). This option is enabled by default, in fact restoring the pre-3.1.8 behaviour of translating also the default culture. You want this option to be enabled if: - you write pseudo translation tags in your code like <%[page_title_welcome]%> and need Prado to insert the proper translation for every language (i.e. the base text is not written in a real language); - your default culture is different from the culture used in your project (eg. your DefaultCulture is "fr", but text in your pages is written in english to ensure other team members will understand it); You want this option to be disabled if: - you write code in your DefaultCulture language like <%[Welcome to my website]%>. For users viewing your pages in that same Culture, Prado won't even try to translate these strings. Translation will occur normally for every other culture. Upgrading from v3.1.7 --------------------- - tinyMCE has been updated to support Internet Explorer 9; a lot of new languages and plugins are now supported, but some of the old ones changed their name. If you have problems in getting THtmlArea localized with your language, check if the language code for your locale has changed and update it. Upgrading from v3.1.6 --------------------- - The different SQLMap cache engines (TSQLMapFifoCache, TSQLMapLRUCache, TSQLMapApplicationCache) doesn't take anymore the cache size in their constructor. Instead, they take the cachemodel object who instanciated them. It shouldn't affect existing code, except if you instanciate one of this cache directly (i.e, without a <cachemodel> directive in your SQLMap configuration) Upgrading from v3.1.5 --------------------- Upgrading from v3.1.4 --------------------- - The structure of indices used by TDbCache has been changed by replacing PRIMARY KEY on 'itemkey' with non-unique index and adding an additional index on column 'expire'. Existing tables should be amended or deleted and recreated as follows: CREATE TABLE pradocache (itemkey CHAR(128), value BLOB, expire INT) CREATE INDEX IX_itemkey ON pradocache (itemkey) CREATE INDEX IX_expire ON pradocache (expire) Upgrading from v3.1.3 --------------------- - The prado-cli and prado-cli.bat scripts have been moved into the framework folder of the distribution. Upgrading from v3.1.2 --------------------- - The Translation configuration now also accepts type 'Database' to ease the setup of DB base translation. A valid ConnectionID has to be supplied in the source parameter: <translation type="Database" source="db1" autosave="true" cache="false" /> Type 'MySQL' can still be used but is deprecated and might be removed in a later release. - TinyMCE (used by THtmlArea component) has been upgraded to version 3.1.0.1. Since the 3.X branch of TinyMCE has a different API than 2.X, you should upgrade your Customs Plugins if you use any. See http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php/TinyMCE:Migration_guide for more information. - If you use EnableStateEncryption, the PageState of your current user sessions will no longer be valid, since we optimized the encryption/compression logic. - You can now use # and $ characters in your SQL statements with SQLMap by escaping them as ## and $$. That induces that you can't have consecutive parameters like #param1##param2# or $param1$$param2$ in your statements anymore. Upgrading from v3.1.1 --------------------- - The RELATIONS type declaration in Active Record classes for Many-to-Many using an association table was change from "self::HAS_MANY" to "self::MANY_TO_MANY". E.g. change 'albums' => array(self::HAS_MANY, 'Artist', 'album_artists') to 'albums' => array(self::MANY_TO_MANY, 'Artist', 'album_artists') - Active Record no longer automatically adds/removes/updates related objects. - 'Raw' mode for TCheckboxList and TRadioButtonList (and their active counter parts) now render a surrounding <span> tag to allow client scripts to identify them with the ClientId. You may have to check your CSS. Upgrading from v3.1.0 --------------------- - The RELATIONS declaration in Acive Record classes is changed from "protected static $RELATIONS" to "public static $RELATIONS". - IFeedContentProvider adds a new method: getContentType(). This affects any class implementing this interface. - TUrlMapping now only uses the PATH_INFO part of URL for matching, and the matching is for the whole PATH_INFO. - IUserManager adds two new methods: getUserFromCookie() and saveUserToCookie(). This affects classes that implements this interface and does not extend from TUserManager. - The order of application lifecycles is changed. The loadState and loadStateComplete are moved to right after onBeginRequest. - TDropDownList will be in an unselected state if no initial selection is specified. That is, its SelectedIndex will be -1. Previously, the first item will be considered as selected. Upgrading from v3.1b -------------------- - Comment tag <!-- ... ---> (introduced in v3.1a) is changed to <!--- ... ---> - When TDataList.RepeatLayout is Raw, the items will render <div> instead of <span> - TActiveRecord finder methods will always return a new object instance (identity mapping was removed). - TActiveRecord::findBySql() will return an object rather than an array - TActiveRecord::findAllBySql() will return an array of objects. Upgrading from v3.1a --------------------- - The signature of TActiveRecord::finder() is changed. This affects all TActiveRecord-descendant classes that override this method. Please use the following code to override the method: public static function finder($className=__CLASS__) { return parent::finder($className); } - The way to specify the table name for an active record class is changed. Previously, it used the static class member '_tablename'. Now it uses class constant as follows: class UserRecord extends TActiveRecord { const TABLE='users_table'; } - Changed TActiveRatingList's javascript control class name from "Prado.WebUI.TRatingList" to "Prado.WebUI.TActiveRatingList". - PRADO's javascript library locations moved from Web/Javascripts/xxx to Web/Javascripts/source/xxx - IPostBackDataHandler added a new method getDataChanged(). Any control implementing this interface will be required to implement this new method. Upgrading from v3.0.x --------------------- - Validators ClientSide.OnSuccess becomes ClientSide.OnValidationSuccess, - Validators ClientSide.OnError becomes ClientSide.OnValidationError, - Validator OnSuccess event becomes OnValidationSuccess. - Validator OnError event becomes OnValidationError. - Content enclosed in <!-- --> is now parsed as normal template content. Previously, it was not parsed and was rendered as is. Upgrading from v3.0.7 --------------------- Upgrading from v3.0.6 --------------------- Upgrading from v3.0.5 --------------------- - TRepeater does not render <span> anymore for empty item template. - constructUrl() now encodes ampersand by default. This should have minimal impact on any existing PRADO applications, though. - TDataGrid does not generate default table styles. This may affect the appearance of existing PRADO applications that use TDataGrid. - If TUrlMapping is used, you need to set the UrlManager property of THttpRequest to the module ID of TUrlMapping. - TJavascriptLogger toggle key is changed from ALT-D to ALT-J. Use the ToggleKey property chanage to a different key. - Javascript Library rico was REMOVED. Upgrading from v3.0.4 --------------------- - TFileUpload::saveAs() will return false instead of raising an exception if it encounters any error. - TDropDownListColumn.DataField is renamed to DataTextField and DataFormatString is renamed to DataTextFormatString. A new property named DataValueField is added. Upgrading from v3.0.3 --------------------- - The 'Static' value is changed to 'Fixed' for the Display property of all validators as well as TValidationSummary, due to conflict with PHP keywords. - The 'List' value is changed to 'SimpleList' for TValidationSummary.DisplayMode. - The 'List' value is changed to 'DropDownList' for TPager.Mode - This change affects existing client-side javascript handlers such as <com:TRequiredFieldValidator ClientSide.OnSuccess="xxx" /> All ClientSide javascript event handlers (such as ClientSide.OnSuccess) are by default wrapped within the function block. function(sender, parameter){ // handler code } You may override this behaviour by providing your own javascript statement block as "javascript:MyHandlerFunction", e.g. ClientSide.OnSuccess="javascript:MyHandlerFunction" or ClientSide.OnSuccess="javascript:function(validator,sender){ ... }" Upgrading from v3.0.2 --------------------- - The minimum PHP version required is raised to 5.1.0 and above. If your server is installed with a lower version of PHP, you will have to upgrade it in order to run PRADO applications. - The signature of TControl::broadcastEvent() is changed from broadcastEvent($sender,TBroadCastEventParameter $param) to broadcastEvent($name,$sender,$param). This makes the call to broadcastEvent() to be consistent with raiseEvent(). Upgrading from v3.0.1 --------------------- - Postback enabled control will always disable default client-side browser action. This is due to google toolbar's interference of event stopping scheme. This modification should only affect user-derived postback javascripts. Upgrading from v3.0.0 --------------------- - URL format is modified when THttpRequest.UrlFormat=='Path'. This modification affects both the URLs generated by calling constructUrl() and the URLs understood by PRADO. In particular, PRADO now understands the following URL format: /index.php/ServiceID,ServiceParam/Name1,Value1/Name2,Value2/... In v3.0.0, the above URL is written as: /index.php/ServiceID/ServiceParam/Name1/Value1/Name2/Value2/... - TControl::onBubbleEvent() has been changed to TControl::bubbleEvent(). This change only affects user controls that override this method. Upgrading from v2.x and v1.x ---------------------------- PRADO v3.x is not backward compatible with v2.x and v1.x.
