5.8.14-RELEASE: Finalizing XP 5.8

The XP group is proud to announce the immediate availability of XP Framework, version 5.8.14. This is the last planned release on the xp5_8 branch

It includes only two minor changes, a quickfix for issue #302 (Exception when not specifying a context class) and a changed to the REST routing mechanism to allow any character in path segments (see pull request #288).

  $ cd ~/xp
  $ wget http://xp-framework.net/setup/5.8.14 -O - | php -- -d ~/bin/

XP Release procedure

After introducing the new build system a while ago, we've produced quite a number of releases already. Time for some documentation, now that we know the procedure works as expected.

The XP Wiki now contains a step by step howto for creating releases and release candidates. Here it is!

5.9.2-RELEASE

The XP Framework group is proud to announce the immediate availability of the 5.9.2-RELEASE. In this release we focussed on refactoring the test suite to use the new unittest parametrization features introduced in 5.9.1 and generally added some fine tuning to the code.

5.9.2 is out and ready to be used:

  $ cd ~/xp
  $ wget http://xp-framework.net/setup/5.9.2 -O - | php -- -d ~/bin/

XP Language and compiler, 1.10.1-RELEASE: xcc -e

We are proud to announce the immediate availability of XP Language and compiler, version 1.10.1. This release includes:

• RFC #0249: Exponentiation operator. See here for details.
  
• RFC #0238: xcc -e and xcc -w (command line code evaluation). See here for details.
  
• Various bugfixes for PHP syntax
  
• A command line option -q which will show only compilation errors
  

XP Language and compiler, 1.10.0-RELEASE: Compact syntax

After the release candidate two days ago, the XP group is proud to announce the immediate availability of the XP Language and compiler, version 1.10.0. This release includes:

• Compact method, assignment and fluent interface syntax (the implementations of RFC #0240, #0241 and #0252. For details, see here
  
• A dependency on XP 5.9.1 due to the usage of parameterized unittests. See the release announcement
  
• Bugfixes for errors resolving abstract enums, problems with PHP 5.3
  

Enjoy

5.9.1-RELEASE: Unittest parameterization, generics fixes

Roughly a week after releasing 5.9.0, we're already bumping the version to 5.9.1. This is due to the fact that RFC #0267 - Unittest parameterization, which we're now including, was opened after the feature freeze we announced with the availability of 5.9.0RC7. We're also including a series of fixes (and quite a bit of tests accompanying them) for generics.

Long story short, here we are, 5.9.1 is out and ready to be used:

  $ cd ~/xp
  $ wget http://xp-framework.net/setup/5.9.1 -O - | php -- -d ~/bin/

XP Language and compiler, 1.10.0RC1: Compact syntax

After releasing version 1.9.0 last week, we've finally pushed forward the long-planned "compact syntax" feature which allows you to write value objects more concisely.

  public class Person {
    protected string $name;
  
    public __construct($this.name) { }
    public void setName($this.name) { }
    public this withName($this.name) { }
    public string getName() -> $this.name;
  }

XP Compiler, 1.9.0

The XP group is proud to announce the immediate availability of XP Compiler, r1.9.0. This release is the first release to depend on XP 5.9.0 (hence we use the .9.0 in the version to give a hint) and the first in the now-separated release cycle. Besides this infrastrure change, this release includes support for the self keyword in parameters and return types and a bugfix for uniqid() no longer generating unique ids.

XP Language is available as an "xpi"-installable module named xp-framework/xp-language.

XPI - Install XP Modules

With their release cycles separated, our contrib modules cannot be downloaded alongside the XP Framework's releases anymore. In order to work around this, we now provide the "xpi" utility.

Basic usage

  # This will search for modules
  $ xpi search query
  
  # This will show information about a module, and its releases (newest first)
  $ xpi info vendor/module
  
  # This will install the newest release of the specified module
  $ xpi add vendor/module
  
  # This will upgrade the module to the newest release
  $ xpi upgrade vendor/module
  
  # This will list installed modules
  $ xpi list

  $ cd ~/.xp
  
  # First usage
  $ xpi add xp-framework/xp-language
  
  # Later on
  $ xpi upgrade xp-framework/xp-language
