Patch is mostly created by script in egroupware/doc/fix_depricated.php in separate commit.
I do NOT advice to apply this patch to a production system (it's commited to trunk!), as the automatic modified regular expressions have a good change to break something ...
- the etemplate_request object which stores the request data in the
a) session (as before) or
b) compressed and encrypted in the form transmitted to the user
Benefit of b) is that the session does not grow and the form can
be submitted as long as the session exists, as we need no garbadge
collection. Of cause more data needs to be submitt between
browser and webserver. b) is choosen automatic if mcrypt and
gzcompress are available, but can be turned off via setting
etemplate_request::$request_class = 'etemplate_request_session';
- static class variables instead of the before used global ones
--> This new version of eTemplate is fully backward compatible with 1.6!
Admin can now define multiple addressbooks each with an own edit / view template and an own icon.
Atm. all Addressbooks are stored in one backend, but this will change soon^tm
- allow to set and promote attributes for process_exec in extensions (needed for date)
- readonly removes file-uploads now
- readonly value for mulitselectbox is in multiple lines now
- tab-widgets can be edited (new editor lost template content and onclick_handler, if looping)
- select widgets accept again options via $sel_options[$name] $name is the name of the widget and not the form_name
- grid-options get loaded again via the old editor
- new editor has now everything the old one had, beside editing of embeded stylesheets
- new possibility to define a confirmation for buttons via javascript
- finetuned the garbadge collection for php4 sessions
- widget editor works quite nice
- beware it can create Templates the old editor cant understand and destroy if you save or export them from the old editor!
=> need to move the other functionality (import, export, dump, ..) of the old editor to the new one, so the old editor can retire ;-)
- based on existing show function the template can be edited in place
- dblclicked widgets will be edited in a popup
- new editor supports not only one grid, but a hirachical tree of widgets
still missing:
- editing and operations of grid rows and columns
- type-specific templates for the popup, to make the options more intuitiv
In the meantime the old editor is still functional
2) Step #1 of removing eTemplate's limitation on allowing only a grid as root element of the widget tree (which can NOT directly contain further grids, thought references to other templates/grids are ok). The storage layer allows now a real tree. Redering and editing only works on the old data variable, which is now a reference to the first grid in the tree.
More to come ...
