AxKit Changes 1.6 - Added SAXMachines Language module. - Seperated ContentProviders and StyleProviders into separate entities - Fixed more relative URI "issues" - Fixed xinclude in XSP pages - Fixed handling of XML resources - if using FastHandler don't check if the resource is XML or not. (this fixes the problem with having to "AddType text/xml .xsp" for everything you want handled) - Added support everywhere for axkit: URI scheme, which runs the requested URI through AxKit's engine without the need for doing a full http request. - Made most of AxKit warnings clean. - Made ConfigReader class a little easier to override - Use direct gzwrite() routines when writing the cache - should be slightly faster. - "Fixed" strange error with Gzipped output related to perl unicode support - Made passthru sane with alternate providers (reduces security risks - esp. with Filter) - Fixed some of the demo XSP pages - Added AxTraceIntermediate config option to aid debugging 1.5.2-dev - Added SAXMachines Language module. - Seperated ContentProviders from StyleProviders 1.5.2 - Allow AxKit to handle directory requests. - Fixed all Language modules to return 200/OK - Added AxIgnoreStylePI directive - Ported AxPoint to use XML::Handler::AxPoint - TaglibHelper taglibs no longer need to have parse_* subs - Added HtmlDoc language module - Fixed strange bug in cached LibXSLT stylesheets 1.5.1 - Allow XSP pages to return a result code to make redirects and other HTTP status codes easier. - Allow form/querystring params to *not* be passed to XSLT - Many XSP bug fixes - Fixed all Plugins to return OK, as needed - All plugins renamed to Apache::AxKit::Plugin namespace (old installs should continue to work by virtue of the old file remaining) - added SimpleTaglib, a powerful TaglibHelper replacement - added beginnings of a demo site, not yet fully functional, but already contains some useful example code 1.5 - Allow AddHandler/SetHandler axkit instead of PerlHandler - Added AxDependencyChecks On/Off for performance on live sites - Implemented resolution of xml-stylesheet PI and root element stuff using libxml2 in C, allowing you to use AxKit totally without expat/XML::Parser. - Ported XSP to XML::LibXML - Added a PassiveTeX renderer, so you can do on-the-fly PDFs - Fixed some relative URI bugs in LibXSLT module - Fixes for compilation on MacOSX and SUNPRO C. - TaglibHelper updates to improve flexibility etc. - Added AxAddPlugin option - Cache changed to use 2 directories below cache file. Should speed things up on Linux/ext2 - Facility to add stylesheets mid-processing, so you can control the execution path via XSP and other scripting. - Some AxPoint updates. 1.4 - Config directives no longer implemented by Apache::ExtUtils - New TaglibHelper module, makes writing XSP taglibs almost trivial. - Build checks for iconv library - should make things smoother on *BSD - Known bug in Filter provider is fixed - Major memory leak cleanup - Added LibXSLT language module (for use with XML::LibXSLT). This is over twice as fast as XML::Sablotron, and more compliant. - Added AxAddURIProcessor config directive - Added AxLogDeclines config directive (replaces PerlSetVar equivalent) - Added import_templates() to XPathScript - XSP now uses SAX to generate code - Sablot.pm allows you to set the outgoing mime type - Many fixes to AxKit.xs compiled directives (hopefully making it work for more people now) - Removed eval{} stuff around XML parsing in Provider.pm as it seemed to be causing segfaults in Perl 5.6.1 - Fixes to LibXSLT language module to make it work with new versions of XML::LibXSLT (and the core libxslt library). - Cleaned up error handling, and error stylesheets significantly - Removed Storable from XPathScript (to get control of the segfaults) - Implemented has_changed() for all "cache" bits - Improved error handling with an AxStackTrace config directive allowing the Error Stylesheet to get a full stack trace. - Doc fixes to stop pod2man complaining. - AxKit now adds AxKit/Version to your Server string (for netcraft!) - Switched xml_string to pnotes so you can have binary nulls in the output (e.g. for PDFs). - Added some configuration tidbits to INSTALL - Much better (though not 100% there) test harness code - Major fixes to Makefile.PL (to work better on *BSD and Win32) - XML::Parser no longer needed if you have libxml2 installed. This will allow AxKit to work with Apaches that have expat enabled! - XSP pages can implement a has_changed() function, which allows you to control the caching of the results (can have significant performance increases on dynamic pages) - Providers responsible for returning declined (this allows for non-file providers to not end up in a 404 when doing e.g. passthru) - Added AxNoCache option to turn off caching on purpose. - split AxKit.xs into more managable files - Better error messages from CharsetConv (iconv) - Added a PDF slideshow builder called AxPoint - Sablot fix for changing content-type. - Much cleaner handling of character set conversions - AxKit::Apache->request() added (similar to Apache->request()) - Cache maintains content-type more sanely. - Many, many minor bug fixes. 1.3 - Re-written XSP engine - Much better dependencies checking - XPathScript adds import_template() function and other minor changes - Better shared memory usage when using directives in httpd.conf - All XSP namespaces updated to Apache normalised versions (these are http://apache.org/xsp// although these may well change again shortly) 1.2 - XPathScript can interpolate "{xpath}" in $t hash - reduced required modules list - Removed Sablotron from AxKit.pm due to some segfaults - Fixed segfaults in aborted conversions with iconv - Added AxResetProcessors - Improved Apache::Filter support - Much improved installer - Many XSP changes/fixes. Now uses XML::XPath DOM tree. - Memoize methods that call stat() in Cache and Providers - Many miscellaneous improvements 1.1 - Uses iconv rather than Unicode::* modules to do character set conversions - Fix for AxMediaType/AxStyleName bug (Owen Stenseth) - Fix for compilation under mod_perl 1.24_01 - Fix for relative URI's and file:// sub requests - Minor stylesheet cache bug fixed - Updated Filter provider for Apache::Filter >= 1.13 - Fix for filehandle leak - Fix for Virtual Host Stash bug.
