Re: [fw-general] Zend Framework 1.5 release process is officially underway!

2008-01-11 Thread Thomas Weidner

Will there be suggested way to handle file uploads in the meantime ?


For now all users are cooking their own soup...
This will still be the actual way until my proposal is integrated into the 
core.

But it will take several weeks until all is finished.

Actually I am finishing my things for 1.5 (Translation, View Helper and some 
bugs).
This will take some days and then I will continue work on 
Zend_File_Transfer/_Upload.

Hello Matthew,


file uploads are not part of the scope at this time, but will be
addressed in a future release after Zend_(?)_Upload is complete.

Will there be suggested way to handle file uploads in the meantime ?


Forms *are* a tough nut to crack. They aggregate a variety of
functionalities -- validation, filtering/escaping, rendering,
persistence, and more. I'm thoroughly convinced there is no one, right
way to approach them; I'm hoping that Zend_Form, however, will work well
for many people.

From your descriptions it sounds good. I can't wait to test it.

I've been incorporating community and internal feedback into the design,
and am getting close to completion.

Optional fields will be addressed, and multi-page forms will as well;
file uploads are not part of the scope at this time, but will be
addressed in a future release after Zend_(?)_Upload is complete.

I've introduced two types of grouping, one for 'visual' grouping, and
another for logical grouping, of elements. The former allows grouping of
elements within a decorator (such as a fieldset). The latter allows for
'sub-forms' -- which effectively allows you to display and validate a
form at a time, and persist the results across a session; at any point,
you can then pull the full form results together. Note that this code is
not yet in the incubator, but *is* under development. I plan to have it
ready for the Preview Release -- which will allow for more extensive,
real-world testing before the final general access release.

Forms *are* a tough nut to crack. They aggregate a variety of
functionalities -- validation, filtering/escaping, rendering,
persistence, and more. I'm thoroughly convinced there is no one, right
way to approach them; I'm hoping that Zend_Form, however, will work well
for many people.

Hi, and thank you for the clarification.

Is Zend_Form really going to be in the 1.5 preview release? I do hope so but 
last time I looked it had a way to go what with the issues like optional 
fields (Zend_Filter_Input's ALLOW_EMPTY) and mutli-forms, file uploads etc. I 
to need to write a forms intensive project and so am keen to test these once 
in place, but I hope it's not going to get rushed. Forms looks like a tough 
nut to crack elegantly from what I've seen.

Regards,
Mark

[fw-general] Zend Framework 1.5 release process is officially underway!

2008-01-10 Thread Wil Sinclair
Hi everyone, looking at the 1.5 preview release thread, I realize I
kinda blew it on the announcement. You all deserve nothing but the
clearest, most accurate, and invigorating announcement we can put
together! So, if you'll give me one more shot at it. . .

The Zend Framework is delighted to announce that the official release
process for Zend Framework 1.5 has begun! Since the 1.5 is a substantial
release, we've decided to kick things off with a preview release to put
all the new functionality in the community's hands as early as possible.
This release will be followed by as many release candidates as are
needed to meet the high quality standards of the ZF project. Features to
be released in Zend Framework 1.5 include, but are not necessarily
limited to:

  * Zend_Auth_Adapter_Ldap
  * Zend_Build/Zend_Console
  * Zend_Controller additional action helpers
* ContextSwitch and AjaxContext
* Json
* AutoComplete
  * Zend_Form
  * Zend_InfoCard
  * Zend_Layout
  * Zend_OpenId
  * Zend_Search_Lucene improvements:
* wildcard search
* date range search
* fuzzy search
* Lucene 2.1 index file format support
  * Zend_View enhancements:
* actions
* partials
* placeholders
  * Zend_Pdf UTF8 support
  * New Zend_Service consumables (final list TBD)
  * A whole lotta bug fixes and documentation improvements

The first two significant dates have already been set. The code freeze
for the preview release is *1/22*, while the targeted release date is
*1/24*. If everything goes well the first release candidate will follow
in about 3 weeks. From that point on, release candidates will be
produced as needed to reach the quality level necessary for a general
availability (GA) Release.
Please keep in mind that the preview release is fundamentally different
from an initial release candidate. For example, there is no guarantee
that the API's will not change or that features will not be added or
dropped before the first release candidate is cut. Generally speaking,
the more feedback we get from the community for the preview release and
the release candidates, the sooner we'll reach the GA release.

I hope all of you are as excited about this as we are. Many thanks to
everyone who has helped us get to this point- especially to all of you
who have generously donated your time to contribute to Zend Framework.
Let's make this the best release yet!

,Wil
