This keeps track of important changes to the 1.x branch. Important changes that need extra attention when releasing v1.5. Besides these changes there were lots of bug fixes and core and speed improvements.

When you decide to upgrade to a new version, pay attention to the changes documented in this changelog, and the upgrade procedures documented.

Important fixes, changes, notes. Read them carefully.

  • The "Undefined constant MYSQL_ATTR_COMPRESS" issue that pops up under certain conditions has been fixed.
  • It has been reported that under certain circumstances there might be issues with serialized data stored in the Auth user table, field "profile_fields", and the "payload" field in the sessions table. It is strongly advised to define those columns as "blob" to avoid these issues.
  • A new Log package has been introduced in preparation for the transition to 2.0, which replaces the Log class. As it is a required by the core, you MUST add the Log class to your always_load manually if you are upgrading from a previous version!

Backward compability notes

  • Uri::to_assoc() no longer throws an exception with uneven segments, but returns null as value of the last segment
  • ORM Model::find() no longer accepts null as only parameter. If you want to use that, you are now REQUIRED to also pass the options array (or an empty array).
  • Sessions have been refactored, all validation and validation data has been moved server side. Because of this, pre-1.5 sessions are not longer compatible.
  • The Log class has been removed and replaced by the log package. If you have extended the Log class in your application, you will have to extend \Log\Log instead, and check the compatibility of your changes. If they are about logging to other locations, you might want to look into the Monolog stream handlers instead.

Removed code (because it was deprecated in v1.4 or earlier)

  • ORM Model::find() can no longer be used to construct queries using method chaining. Use Model::query() instead.

Code deprecated in v1.5 (to be removed in the next release)

  • none
