Compilation of developer notes on changes in 1.6.
Schema
- Added ACL tables (todo - list them)
- Removed jos_groups table
- Removed jos_plugins table in favour of jos_extensions
- Added update tables
- jos_updates
- jos_update_sites
- jos_update_sites_extensions
- jos_update_categories
Framework
JAuthorization
Remove JAuthorization::_mos_add_acl.
Added JAuthorization::getUserAccessLevels( $section [, $action = 'view'] ).
JDatabase
JDatabase::setQuery casts the sql variable to a string. This allows you to pass an object that implements the __toString magic method.
JFile
Both JFile::write and JFTP::write now use a reference for its second argument. Code like JFile::write($filename,'string'); will fail, however $data = 'string'; JFile::write($filename, $data); will work for both 1.5 and 1.6
JModel
JModel::getState will now take an optional second argument to set the default. $value = $model->getState( 'foo', 'bar' );
JModel has an addition contruction option and internal variable __state_set. This is used to lazy-load model initialisation.
New API
Added JTableTree as an abstract class for tree-based tables.
Made JObject abstract. It can no longer be directly instantiated. Use JStdClass instead.
Added JDocumentXML to allow easy generation of valid XML files.
Changes to XML-RPC support
On april the 9th. Louis Landry explained his intended changes to the way Joomla will handle XML-RPC in version 1.6. You can view his detailed explanation here [[1]]>.
Components
Join for access level
Before:
LEFT JOIN #__groups AS g ON g.id = c.access
After:
LEFT JOIN #__core_acl_axo_groups AS g ON g.value = a.access
Administrator:Users
Legacy Mode
Only available in legacy mode (to be dropped in future versions):
global $mainframe- Use$app = &JFactory::getApplication()instead.- JTemplate (patTemplate completely deprecated)
- Multiple client language install packs (e.g. where site and administrator language files are in the same installation file), use packages with two language install packages
Files/Features Dropped
- Support for constants as language strings with JLanguage
Templates
Mapping of positions in Milky Way 1.5 to new positions.
- user3->position-1
- breadcrumb->position-2
- right->position-3,position-4
- left->position-7
- user1->position-9
- user2->position-10
- footer->position-5,position-8,position-11
