Busy weekend; lots of MBA coursework completed, and three releases of Solar. This one is a combined bugfix and function enhancement. Change notes are:
* WARNING: This is a public development release, and is not yet stable. * Removed notify() method and related properties from Solar_Cell_Comments, as that method is more properly in the realm of the application (which may notify in many different ways, if at all). * Added setup() method to Solar_App for easier setting of initial property values in extended classes (e.g., you can use functions this way). Added per discussion with Bhishma Parva (thanks for pointing it out). * Solar_Uri now automatically urlencodes query and pathinfo values at export() time. * Solar_App_Bookmarks now gives the correct backlink in edit.php view (because of the new Solar_Uri automatic urlencoding). * Solar_Cell_Bugs now shows priority options. * Solar_Cell_Bugs edit form now allows editing of the summary.
Hm. How is this significantly different from PEAR? The major difference I see is that it’s not PHP 4 compatible. I’d read the wiki, but it’s being extremely slow.
Okay, it loaded. Looks like it’s also more of a framework than PEAR cares to be.
