Edifice API / News: Recent posts

With the pending release of PHP 5.0, most of the reasons for having Edifice have evaporated. PHP now will natively handle destructors / try/catch error handling, etc.

I will try to get a new version of Edifice uploaded which is just an addon for PEAR (overlapping areas will be removed from the new version).

A new release of Edifice is coming very soon. Edifice 2.0 should be available by the end of March, 2003. Look for greatly enhanced error handling, better template support robust database support and many other features.

For those of you that missed it, version 1.1.1-final was released. Version 1.1.1 contains a minor security fix from 1.1.0. The fix eliminated the remote possibility of a security bug in GetRelativePath().

RC4 of the API was just released. Download it and check it out! As promised, some of the support files are now included (you may download the cwpapi-full to get them). The documentation is also now a little more comprehensive, and there were some minor bug fixes. Both versions now include example files. If you want to help, please feel free to contact us. Check back often.

NOTE: the RC4 release is the last one before 1.1.0 goes golden.

If you could take a few minutes to complete our usage survey, that would be greatly appreciated. It would help us direct our future development in a way that would provide maximum usability for the API.

RC3 of the API was just released. Download it and check it out! As promised, some of the support files are now included (you may download the cwpapi-full to get them). The documentation is also now a little more comprehensive, and there were some minor bug fixes. Both versions now include example files. If you want to help, please feel free to contact us. Check back often.

NOTE: the RC3 release only was released as a "full" release. This is because the kernel did not change. We are looking at one more RC release before final version. That one should include DB support.

Some of the documentation has now been released for view in the Docs section. As always, full documentation is contained in the source download. If you are interested in helping us with this code, please contact any of the project admins.
