KOW Ent 3.0a Released

Added by Marcelo Coraça de Freitas 28 days ago

I'm glad to announce KOW Ent 3.0a has been released.

This is the first alpha version of the brand new KOW Ent written from scratch.

It also means KOW_View-Entities and KOW_Sec-Entities wont' work with this release.

Among other things, this release introduces:

  • brand new build system
  • no need to call a bunch of methods to register the entity type (thus removing complexity)
  • not only MySQL, but also PostgreSQL and Microsoft SQL Server support
  • easier to implement new entity types
  • abstract data storage API thus enabling the user to implement other ways to store data (files, other DB APIs)
  • experimental table schema versioning
  • new query API supporting joins
  • the entity doesn't need an ID type anymore

There are some features that haven't been implemented yet:

  • non serial/bigserial primary keys
  • extended indexes
