------------------------------------------------------------------------ UnCommon Web version 0.3.3 - learning to climb up bookshelves (for real) Released 2004-11-10 [nb: This release exists simply to fix a number of minor (but fatal) bugs in the 0.3.2 release] [nb: this release breaks backwards compatibility] * Home page http://common-lisp.net/project/ucw/ * Download ftp://ftp.common-lisp.net/pub/project/ucw/ucw_0.3.3.tar.gz * Prerequisites ** Prerequisites included in the distribution - arnesi - yaclml - cl-icu - iterate - mod_lisp ** Prerequisites you must download and install manually - a recent CVS version of SLIME. You must have the new inspector for the ucw-inspector to work. - portableaserve 1.2.35 should you want the aserve backend. * Changes (since 0.3.2) ** "The API has changed" fixes - Fix various uses of <ucw:a which didn't use the :action attribute. - Fix wrong environment name in admin repl template ** Components - New component simple-container - root-component renamed to window-component - Remove GOTO and REPLACE macros (and the underlying goto-component and replace-component methods). Use (setf context.window-component) instead (passing it a component instance). ** YACLML - Support :href attribute an <ucw:a tags with URL rewriting to add the session id. ** RERL - Move *debug-on-error* logic out of the handle-request-error's :around method and into the standard-server's handle-request method. - Improved the handling of errors during actions, callbacks and rerl internal functions. * Known Issues - The transaction example does not work. * Supported Platforms SBCL and OpenMCL are known to work on PPC with the mod_lisp backend. CMUCL is known to work on x86 with mod_lisp backend (apache2). The aserve backend is not known to work (it might, it just hasn't been tested). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ have fun (i know i do), -- -Marco Ring the bells that still can ring. Forget your perfect offering. There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in. -Leonard Cohen

[Bese-announce] UCW 0.3.2

UnCommonWeb version 0.3.2 - learning to climb up bookshelves Released 2004-11-06 [nb: this release breaks backwards compatability] * Home page http://common-lisp.net/project/ucw/ * Download ftp://ftp.common-lisp.net/pub/project/ucw/ucw_0.3.2.tar.gz NB: This tarball contains ucw, arnesi, yaclml, cl-icu, iterate and mod_lisp. You'll need to install a recent CVS version of SLIME and portableaserve 1.2.35. * Changes (since 0.3.1) [in no particular order] - A new component class hierarchy (and associated API) has been introduced. UCW now distinguishes between window component and widget components and provides better support for both. - The untested, buggy and empty documentation application has been removed. - The user's manual has been updated, improved and rewritten in LaTeX. - The yaclml tags <ucw:form and <ucw:a now require an :action attribute. - Two generic actions (ok and refresh-component) have been implementod. - The session.value API has been improved. - standard-application's entry-point table is now implemented as a hash-table, this greatly improves support for sites with many entry points. - A new component class (container) has been added. It provides support for implementing components which manage other components. The container component defines various convience methods which simplyify the initialization and manipulation of sub components. - The UCW inspector directly uses SLIME's inspector and produces similar output. The backtrack error pages now have inspector links. (as they did in UCW 0.1). Inspector anchors no longer pretty print the object. - the render-on defgeneric has been moved into the protocol file where it should have been all along. - render-on uses wrapping-standard method combination. - The standard-component file has been split into multilpe files. - Fixed mod_lisp's response object wiping * Supported Platforms SBCL and CMUCL have problems with :default-initargs (which UCW makes wide use of) but otherwise work fine. OpenMCL has no known issues. mod_lisp backend has been tested with all implementations, aserver backend has not been tested. -- -Marco Ring the bells that still can ring. Forget your perfect offering. There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in. -Leonard Cohen
