This keeps track of important changes to the 1.x branch.

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 index.php has been updated to make sure the Response body is rendered, and rendered only once. When upgrading to 1.7.1, don't forget to apply these changes!
  • When using the REST controller and returning an array as a response, the controller now checks if the response format is compatible. If not, it will return an error messsage and set a 406 HTTP status when in production mode. In other modes, it will return a warning and a JSON encoded dump of the array.

System changes

A new Sanitization interface has been introduced to the core. Objects can implement this interface, and when you pass such an object to a View, the object will not be cleaned, but the individual properties will be cleaned by the object itself when the properties are requested by the view.

ORM and Model_Crud models now implement the sanitization interface by default, and when enabled, they will return a cleaned copy of the property, instead of the property itself. This means you can now pass ORM model objects to Views, without the ORM object being destroyed.
