[Php-qt-users] Announcement PHP-Qt 0.1

[Thomas M. <tm...@ph...>]

The PHP-Qt team is pleased to announce the immediate release of PHP-Qt Version 
0.1!
It's been nearly a year since the release of version 0.0.3 and many, many 
things have changed, including the move to using the Smoke library.
A few of the changes from 0.0.3 to 0.1 are:

 * Unit tests based on phpunit
 * Overriding of Qt methods in PHP classes
 * Improved startup time
 * Improved runtime speed
 * improved inheritance
 * CMake-based build system
 * Support for references
 * There is now a global tr() function
 * Based on the Smoke library
 * License: GPL (see note below)
 * Automated type-casting of objects
 * QMetaObjects
 * Support for almost all Qt classes and methods

While there are still several hurdles to make before the 1.0 release, these 
changes represent a significant leap forward from version 0.0.3. In addition 
to the many technical improvements, one change to note is the license; as of 
0.1 the license is "GPL unless linked against Qt Commercial Edition". Some of 
the things to watch for in an upcoming release include: Propper handling of 
signals emitted by the end-developer, more tutorials, documentaion, and 
better handling of Qt container classes.
