Re: [Tsheetx-developers] language and jclasses discussion

[Mark W. <ma...@rw...>]

Hello,

I have got quite a few updates to make to the site loading aspects of 
the site aswell as a neat way to tidy up the root directory, but it will 
mean quite a few files will change or even move.  Therefore, before I am 
asking whether anyone has any outstanding changes before I do anything?

Main updates include:

a) Updated the error handler code to give trace stacks, show the actual 
line of code at fault and just generally more debug information.

b)Updated site class, integrated the installation handling stuff into 
site class thus removing install.site.class and other install related 
files that were effectively nasty duplication hacks.

c) tidied up the template parser code.
d) implemented template parser tags that allow functions as well as 
files to be called.

e)a method to tidy up the root directory.

f) implemented a method to log errors to a database (optional)

Now in reference to Scotts email:

Certainly for now we may aswell leave the class names as J*.  It is only 
a find a replace if we want to change them later.

What do you need to know about the error handler class? - the code is 
still not very mature and lots can be done with it to tidy it up and 
improve its functionality.

I agree, most of the code (the initialisation stuff) in 
test-lang-stuff.php could go into the site class.

Thanks

Mark
