PearUpgrades

I decided that time passed enough. Last upgrade on pear occured on june 19th, I check all PEAR packages that we use and upgraded them. Here is the detail of upgrades :

Licence PHP3
Changes from 1.1: 2003-08-13

• Changed license from PHP 2.02 to 3.0
• Added support for optional dependencies
• Made upgrade and uninstall package case insensitive
• pear makerpm, now works and generates a better system independant spec file
• pear install|build pecl-package, now exposes the compilation progress
• Installer now checks dependencies on package uninstall
• Added proxy support for remote commands using the xmlrcp C ext (Adam Ashley)
• Added the command "download-all" (Alex Merz)
• Made package dependency checking back to work
• Added support for spaces in path names (Greg)
• Various bugfixes
• Added new pear "bundle" command, which downloads and uncompress a PECL package. The main purpouse of this command is for easily adding extensions to the PHP sources before compiling it.

Files :

• lib/pear/PEAR.php
  • all other pear packages
  • lib/webmail/mimeDecode.php
  • lib/adodb/adodb-pear.inc.php
  • lib/adodb/adodb-errorpear.inc.php
  • lib/adodb/tests/test.php
  • lib/phplayers/lib/layersmenu-common.inc.php (from phplayers cvs module)
• lib/pear/System.php
  • no file, removed (14k saved 😊

1.3 is in beta3 will probably be released soon.

Licence PHP2
Release notes 1.2.2 : 2003-07-28

• Fixed a problem in 1.2.1 release
• Added support for passing contaner as an object
• Added fix when db_fileds is *
• Added Test Suite (experimental)
• Added generic support for arbitrary password crypting functions different than MD5, DES and plain text. (Patch by Tom Anderson)
• Added new MDB storage container written by Lorenzo Alberton
• Added new Container for SAMBA password files (SMBPasswd)

Files :

• lib/pear/Auth/Auth.php
  • lib/userslib.php
• lib/pear/Auth/Container.php
  • lib/pear/Auth/Container/LDAP.php
• lib/pear/Auth/Container/LDAP.php
  • not found (???)

We could add more container maybe, as we use only LDAP but that list is available
DB.php File.php IMAP.php LDAP.php MDB.php POP3.php RADIUS.php SMBPasswd.php SOAP.php vpopmail.php

chris.holman: The file lib/pear/Auth/Container/LDAP.php has been almost completely re-written. For the better in most cases and worth updating.
However, the TW team have modified the pear code by implementing the AddUser() function. This has Linux and module dependancies, as it invokes the openLDAP command line tools to add the user. A second implementation AddUser2(Untested) uses the PHP LDAP library calls, and should be integrated as the AddUser function in preference to the existing function.

  • Support for multipart/form-data POST requests and file uploads (partly based on Christian Stocker's work)

No idea how that is supposed to work and why ... it looks like it's only tests for future things that didn't come. erased, can be added back easily

This is an XML parser based on PHP's built-in xml extension. It supports two basic modes of operation: "func" and "event". In "func" mode, it will look for a function named after each element (xmltag_ELEMENT for start tags and xmltag_ELEMENT_ for end tags), and in "event" mode it uses a set of generic callbacks.

Will be needed for XML Tree package (prerequisite).

Allows for the building of XML data structures using a tree
representation, without the need for an extension like DOMXML.

Will be used by the new TikiPackager and TikiPackageInstaller.

• CMD.php is not used anywhere
• DB.php and DB/ should not be used anymore. but it's used in the following files
  • db/tiki-db.php
  • db/structure_fix_1.7to1.8.php
  • lib/bablotron.php
  • lib/phpOpenTracker/phpOpenTracker.php (but phpopentracker is bundled with its own pear::DB file)
  • lib/phplayers/lib/layersmenu-common.inc.php (but that use is very optional and inhibited)
