COMPATIBILITY INFORMATION
Please see the upgrade instructions included in the release.
The following changes introduced in this release need particular
attention:
- The RELATIONS type declaration in Active Record classes for Many-to-
Many using
an association table was change from "self::HAS_MANY" to
"self::MANY_TO_MANY".
E.g. change
'albums' =array(self::HAS_MANY, 'Artist', 'album_artists')
to
'albums' =array(self::MANY_TO_MANY, 'Artist', 'album_artists')
- Active Record no longer automatically adds/removes/updates related
objects.
- 'Raw' mode for TCheckboxList and TRadioButtonList (and their active
counter parts) now render
a surrounding <spantag to allow client scripts to identify them
with the ClientId. You may
have to check your CSS.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
PHP 5.1 or above is required. All functionalities have been tested on
Windows and Linux using Internet Explorer 6/7, FireFox and Safari.
BACKGROUND OF PRADO
For those who have never heard of PRADO before, PRADO is a
component-based and event-driven programming framework for developing
Web applications in PHP. PRADO stands for Php Rapid Application
Development Object-oriented. PRADO was initially released in August
2004 as the grand prizer winner of the Zend coding contest and has
since been adopted by thousands of developers.
PRADO is best suitable for creating Web applications that are highly
user-interactive. It can be used to develop systems as simple as a
blog system to those as complex as a content management system (CMS)
or a complete e-commerce solution. Because PRADO promotes
object-oriented programming through its component-based methodology,
it fits extremely well for team work and enterprise development.
