[Rlib-devel] Say hello to RLIB 1.1.7

[Bob D. <bd...@si...>]

Hey All,

I'm happy to announce to release of 1.1.7.. what was a month in the
making, but well worth the wait.

<READ THIS READ THIS READ THIS>

Report element "text" changed to "literal" because libxml2 has a keyword
"text".. You will have to change all of your "text"'s to "literal"..
sorry.... but it is for the best in the long run.. if you want to
complain please direct it at Chet because he noticed it :)

</READ THIS READ THIS READ THIS>

And the rest of the changes include:

- GLIB Integration (bob)
- XML 2.6 fixes (chet)
- Portability, cleanup Heri Steuer <st...@un...>
- New Date, Time, and String Functions (chet)
- RLIB XML Compiler and Loader (me).. try (rlibc from the command line)
- Major pcode cleanup, syntax same everywhere (chet)
- Work around newer PHP's API Bugs (me)
- Be more careful about freeing memory (chet)
- Correct prototypes for all functions (chet)
- Process report variables is a different order so they always work (me,
chet)
- Added more constants.. make rlib pcode more sane (chet)
- Fix spelling mistakes in for RLIB Syntax (chet)
- A RLIB DTD (chet)...
- And lots of behind the scenes cleanups (me, chet)


So... some other cool stuff to try

verify your rlib xml's with a dtd:
xmllint --xinclude --valid --noout filetocheck.xml

libxml 2.6 is now required because of the Xinclude and Xpointer stuff..
neat stuff... Chet did all that so if you want to know more we can force
him to post his knowledge to the list

Special thanks in this release goes to:

Heri Steuer AND Everton Luis Berz

I updated the rlib web site.. and put RLIB contibutors in the
"Community" section.. thanks guys for all your help

And finally.. if you see Chet.. be sure to give him a hug for all his
hard work
