Hi developers, just to let you know about internal changes in SMW1.1 that may affect your coding. Most of it should work exactly as before. Two changes (extensions) are probably most notable:
(1) SMWStore::getSemanticData($title). This new function of the storage API lets you retrieve all data (the whole "Factbox") of some page without having to issue many smaller requests. It is useful for performance. It can be restricted to certain datatypes or special properties for further optimisation. (2) SMWInfolink. In response to the problems with generating (very long) links, the SMWInfolink class has become smarter. It now stores/maintains not only a link target, but also separate parameters, and it offers static methods for also decoding these (in special pages). It is more effective in creating links that work from that data (e.g. you can now even have property "looking glass" searches for values with symbols like "<"). You can look at the now very short class in SMQ_QP_RSSlink.php to see some use of these links (the class might become longer in SVN soon, but the 1.1 version is still very short). Decoding is done e.g. in SMW_SpecialSearchByProperty.php. '''The second item means that most classes that build links should now rather create such an Infolink object. This is done e.g. in SMWQueryResult, and the old functions getQueryTitle() and getQueryURL() are deprecated. They will vanish at some point -- please update any query printers you have created.'''
