[Cppcms-users] CppCMS 1.1 - Progress Report

[Artyom B. <art...@gm...>]

Hello Dear CppCMS  Users,

If someone getting this as duplicate my apologize.
(Apparently GMail does not like my Yahoo mail sent via mailman :-)  )

--------------------

I'm getting ready to release next CppCMS beta version 1.1 (that would
become stable as 1.2)

Some preview of the work that was done so far:

In the nutshell

- Redesigned applications pool and its API.
- New non-blocking I/O mode for asynchronous applications.
- On-the-fly uploads/post content processing support.
- Independent of context use of cache and session interfaces
- Support of non-cookies based session handling
- Integration of session handling with 3rd part technologies:
  PHP, Java Servlet, Aps.Net and so on and contributed modules.

- Major performance and memory use improvements.
- Headers and Source separation by templates compiler.
  (Special thanks to Lee Elenbaas for the major contribution)

There are still few relatively small tasks in the TODO list before
beta will be officially ready.

More than that  I'm changing the release policy to something that I
should do for a looooong time ago:

  --- release early, release often ---

CppCMS 1.1 was for too long in development and it isn't good...

I want you guys to looking on it:

- Try to build the version from trunk
- Try new API and report your impressions.
- Ask questions.

If some API issues are discovered I can make API changes before 1.2 is out.
However once 1.2 is released... the API will be frozen.

Thank You Very Much.

I'm expecting feedback.
