Edward Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I just noticed on the YiiFramework.com site that they have extended the Version 1 maintenance period from 2013 to 2015. End of Maintenance "Dec 31, 2015 (may be extended further if needed)" http://www.yiiframework.com/download/ This is good news! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edward Posted November 1, 2012 Author Share Posted November 1, 2012 Did you have something to do with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 No, no, not at all. But the people running Yii take their roles very seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 I finished of the JS book which was awesome it makes JS easy as it was not from other authors. But i would just like to say i am really impressed with the PHP Advanced OOP book, this book is definitely better put together than the David Powers OOP Solutions book. I can also see how your are crafting this book towards using the Yii framework, you have many similar situations to Yii. The Interface chapter for example and also the earlier MVC chap where you routed all the pages through index.php using MOD REWRITE. This is definitely good, David Powers lacked these experience building examples. Sadly no traits or namespaces in Yii Version 1, may have to wait for the 2nd, those are useful. Actually i guess if my host has PHP 5.3, it won't matter i could still use them even though i possibly lack some of the new Yii functionality. I guess another way of looking at this is people have been surviving for years now making millions to billions of dollars without traits and namespaces so do we really need them!!

Antonio Conte Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I hate that dumb backslash thingy. I think they should've went for spaces and called them imports like other languages. (Functionally, I see nothing wrong, but they just look ugly. This is two ways to implement the same in Java. import I.Look.Pretty.*; $z = new Nice(); /* --------------- */ $y = new I.Look.Pretty.Nice(); // Also pretty nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
