Many features were introduced:
|
|
1. **CppCMS Core:**
|
|
- Introduction of backward compatible API and _ABI_
|
between releases.
|
|
- Dependencies cleanup thus the only dependencies
|
are very basic libraries available on every system
|
|
- Introduction of Booster - ABI stable Boost
|
replacement.
|
|
- Native support of Microsoft Windows platform
|
was provided including the support of
|
MinGW and MSVC toolsets.
|
|
2. **Ajax Support:**
|
|
- Introduction of synchronous and asynchronous
|
JSON-RPC services that allow easier
|
integration between server side and client
|
side Ajax applications.
|
|
3. **Comet Support:**
|
|
- Support of asynchronous/event-driven programming
|
was introduced to CppCMS.
|
|
- Support of scalable Push technology.
|
|
Asynchronous applications are now capable of
|
management multiple request in single instance
|
simultaneously in scalable and efficient way and
|
push data to client side.
|
|
4. **Improved Support of i18n and l10n:**
|
|
- Powerful localization using ICU library
|
is integrated into standard C++ interface of
|
`std::locale` facets.
|
|
This support is build with Boost.Locale library
|
proposed for Boost.
|
|
- Optional localization based on standard
|
library for embedded applications where ICU
|
may be not feasible.
|
|
5. **Scalability:**
|
|
- Two levels cache system was introduced.
|
|
When using distributed cache system, application
|
caches locally most frequently used pages
|
significantly reducing latency and traffic
|
between cache servers and cache clients.
|
|
6. **Development and Debugging**
|
|
- Internal HTTP web server for development and
|
debugging was provided.
|
|
- Support of dynamic view reloading without
|
application restart was introduced.
|
|
These changes will significantly break API backward compatibility with CppCMS 0.0.x series, but these changes
|
are absolutely necessary to provide these features.
|
|
Also it would be possible to adopt the code almost "mechanically" to the new API.
