CppCMS 0.999.0 - Release Candidate 1

The first release candidate of the next version of CppCMS is available - the API can be considered stable from this point and would not be changed in backward incompatible way.

New Features:

• Templates engine improvements:

  • Added template helpers support functions <% using ... %> and <% render ... %> that allow using other views directly from the code and not just templates as it was done before.

  • Added new syntax

    <% form block foo %>...<% end %> 
    

    as better alternative to:

    <% form begin foo %>...<% form end foo %>
    

  • Improved error messages in templates compiler such that it gives more clear errors in case of syntax error.

  • Changed semantics of application::render function such that it would not override an application that was assigned to the contend (if it was assigned at all)

• cppcms_scale improvements:

  • Support of session storage in addition to cache storage now providing full scalability of CppCMS services.
  • Now it uses same configuration method as CppCMS process - JSON file with optional command line parameters.
  • cppcms_scale now can run as Unix deamon and as Windows service.

• URL Mapper does not throws by default, but rather create an invalid URL making initial programming easier.

  The behavior can be reverted back by setting misk.invalid_url_throws option to true.

• Added recursive shared_mutex support to booster.

• Provided an experimental support of STLPort 5.2.
