793<li>Added support for <a href="models.html">Models</a>.</li>
Derek Allarda7cf0272008-09-25 12:56:02 +0000[diff] [blame]794<li>Redesigned the database libraries to support additional RDBMs (Postgres, MySQLi, etc.).</li>
Derek Allard488b7ee2007-12-17 14:22:31 +0000[diff] [blame]795<li>Redesigned the <a href="./database/active_record.html">Active Record class</a> to enable more varied types of queries with simpler syntax, and advanced features like JOINs.</li>
796<li>Added a feature to the database class that lets you run <a href="./database/call_function.html">custom function calls</a>.</li>
797<li>Added support for <a href="controllers.html">private functions</a> in your controllers. Any controller function name that starts with an underscore will not be served by a URI request.</li>
798<li>Added the ability to pass your own initialization parameters to your <a href="creating_libraries.html">custom core libraries</a> when using $this->load->library()</li>
799<li>Added support for running standard <a href="urls.html">query string URLs</a>. These can be optionally enabled in your config file.</li>
800<li>Added the ability to <a href="urls.html">specify a "suffix"</a>, which will be appended to your URLs. For example, you could add .html to your URLs, making them appear static. This feature is enabled in your config file.</li>
801<li>Added a new error template for use with native PHP errors.</li>
Derek Allardafd99ac2008-01-19 19:59:14 +0000[diff] [blame]802<li>Added "alternator" function in the <a href="./helpers/string_helper.html">string helpers</a>.</li>
Derek Allard488b7ee2007-12-17 14:22:31 +0000[diff] [blame]803<li>Removed slashing from the input class. After much debate we decided to kill this feature.</li>
804<li>Change the commenting style in the scripts to the PEAR standard so that IDEs and tools like phpDocumenter can harvest the comments.</li>
805<li>Added better class and function name-spacing to avoid collisions with user developed classes. All CodeIgniter classes are now prefixed with <dfn>CI_</dfn> and
806all controller methods are prefixed with <dfn>_ci</dfn> to avoid controller collisions. A list of reserved function names can be <a href="controllers.html">found here</a>.</li>
807<li>Redesigned how the "CI" super object is referenced, depending on whether PHP 4 or 5 is being run, since PHP 5 allows a more graceful way to manage objects that utilizes a bit less resources.</li>
808<li>Deprecated: <var>$this->db->use_table()</var> has been deprecated. Please read the <a href="./database/active_record.html">Active Record</a> page for information.</li>
809<li>Deprecated: <var>$this->db->smart_escape_str()</var> has been deprecated. Please use this instead: <var>$this->db->escape()</var></li>
810<li>Fixed a bug in the exception handler which was preventing some PHP errors from showing up.</li>
811<li>Fixed a typo in the URI class. $this->total_segment() should be plural: $this->total_segments()</li>
812<li>Fixed some typos in the default calendar template</li>
813<li>Fixed some typos in the user guide</li>
