your own prefixes that can be used in all value specifications.
unregisterPrefix() and unregisterAllPrefixes() allow you to unregister
a particular or all prefixes (including default prefixes).
- Now comes with 244 unit tests.
v1.7.1
------
Release date: 2009-03-08
Release notes: This release implements the following additions:
- Caching is now implemented as a saparate driver that is automatically
wrapped around any other driver if caching is activated.
This reduces the codebase of Query2XML.php.
- Refactoring of internal classes.
Note: No changes were introduced since 1.7.1RC1.

v1.2.1
------
Release date: 2007-05-26
Release notes: This fourth stable release contains only some small enhancements:
- dumping the data of all the tables in your database is now easier;
there is also a new section in the tutorial that describes how to do this:
http://query2xml.sf.net/docs/html/XML_Query2XML/tutorial_XML_Query2XML.pkg.html#dumpdatabase
Thanks to vikram dot melonfire at gmail dot com for raising the issue of database dumps
- $sql and $options['idColumn'] now also accept a value of false
- XML_Query2XML now comes with 803 phpt unit tests
v1.2.0
------
Release date: 2007-04-15
Release notes: This third stable release contains a new feature and some minor
coding-style related changes.
- it is now possible to handle data sources that use another character encoding
than ISO-8859-1; see the 'encoder' option:
http://query2xml.sf.net/docs/html/XML_Query2XML/tutorial_XML_Query2XML.pkg.html#query2xml_getxml.options_encoder
Thanks to Mickael Guerin for making me implement this feature that has been sitting on my
todo list for quite some time now.
- other character encodings than UTF-8 can now also be used for XML encoding; see
http://query2xml.sf.net/docs/html/XML_Query2XML/tutorial_XML_Query2XML.pkg.html#encoding
- unit tests are now correctly skipped if the database connection fails
- XML_Query2XML now comes with 783 phpt unit tests
v1.1.0
------

Release notes: This second stable release contains a couple of great new features:
- it's now possible to integrate other XML data sources (e.g. XML stored in the DB)
- XML unserialization support: see the ampersand prefix
- you can now return DOMNode instances from callback functions
- non-static methods can now be used as callbacks by
implementing the new XML_Query2XML_Callback interface
The smaller changes include:
- cleaned up API docs
- hidden_container_prefix can now be set using setGlobalOption()
- numerous CS fixes in the tutorial
- now using MDB2 instead of DB in all examples
- documented multi-column primary key support
- now comes with 678 unit tests (tested with MySQL and PostgreSQL)
v1.0.0
------
Release date: 2006-12-04
Release notes: I am very proud to announce the first stable
release of XML_Query2XML.
This release introduces only one minor change. It's not
a bug fix but just a matter of clean code. The patch
was anonymously submitted via the project's sourceforge site
(Note: pear.php.net should be used instead).
If you are upgrading from v0.6.x or v0.7.x, please read
http://query2xml.sf.net/docs/html/XML_Query2XML/tutorial_XML_Query2XML.pkg.html#migration
v0.8.0
------
Release date: 2006-11-04
Release notes: This release is *NOT BACKWARD COMPATIBLE*.
I'm sorry for the BC break, but due to security considerations XML_Query2XML
does not use the native function eval() anymore. Therefore
- the "!" prefix is not supported anymore
- the behaviour of the "condition" option was changed
- the new callback prefix "#" was added (use it instead of the "!" prefix)
A migration strategy is documented at
http://query2xml.sf.net/docs/html/XML_Query2XML/tutorial_XML_Query2XML.pkg.html#migration
Also:
- unit tests were migrated from PHPUnit2 to phpt
- XML_Query2XML now comes with 433 unit tests
- migrated from package.xml version 1.0 to version 2.0
v0.7.0
------
Release date: 2006-10-14
Release notes:
This release adds support for ADOdb (adodb.sf.net).
ADOdb can be used with different error handling mechanisms:
- default: methods return false on failure; these errors
will be caught by XML_Query2XML and an XML_Query2XML_DBException
will be thrown
- PEAR_Error: methods return PEAR_Error on failure (or false
and require ADODB_Pear_Error() to be called);
XML_Query2XML will catch these errors and throw an
XML_Query2XML_DBException that contains the information provided
by the PEAR_Error instance.
- exceptions: if an ADODB_Exception is thrown by ADOdb
XML_Query2XML will catch it and throw an XML_Query2XML_DBException
This means that no matter which error handling mechanism is used within
ADOdb, XML_Query2XML will behave the same. It will throw an
XML_Query2XML_DBException in case of a database error.
v0.6.1
------
Release date: 2006-09-28
Release notes:
This release fixes a minor bug with PHP5 prior to 5.1.0.
Thanks a lot to Christophe Laratte <christophe dot laratte at openflyers dot org>;
for reporting this!
Bug fixes:
- Fixed Bug #8799 "DB/common.php required": compatibility fix for
PHP5 < 5.1.0: added class_exists() calls before using instanceof
operator in XML_Query2XML constructor;
see also: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=29736
v0.6.0
------
Release date: 2006-04-23
Release notes:
This release includes all changes recommeded during the PEPr voting process.
Major changes:
- asterisk shortcut that expands to all columns in the result set;
the tutorial was updated to document this feature and a new
case study (case 07) was added to provide a good example
- implementation of ISO/IEC 9075-14:2005 for mapping SQL identifiers to
XML names; the tutorial was updates to document this feature and
a new case study (case 08) was added to provide lots of examples
- new complex attribute specifications (from my own wish list)
Minor changes:
- simplification of the inner workings of the methods _hasDOMChild()
and _getDOMChild()
- using foreach($array as $key => $value) instead of
while(list($key, $value) = each($array))
- now comes with 168 unit tests
v0.5.1
------
Release date: 2006-03-17
Release notes:
This release includes a couple of minor changes:
- all lines now have a maximum length of 85 characters
- no () with require_once
- always using {} with code blocks
- no silencing of any calls using @
- using /* ... */ for all multi-line comments
- enhanced documentation for private methods
- code enhancements inside XML_Query2XML::getXML()
v0.5.0
------
Release date: 2006-03-14
Release notes:
This release includes a couple of major changes:
- full MDB2 support
- all new exception handling: just three different
exceptions that all extend XML_Query2XML_Exception.
- now comes with 99 PHPUnit2 unit tests
- every exception that is thrown or bubbles up is
documented in the API-docs; the tutorial has a
new "Exception Handling" section.
This release implements all recommendations made by
PEAR developers during a first proposal.
Minor changes include:
- using ' instead of " where-ever possible
- as PHP5 uses references for objects by default & (such as
in =&) is now only used where necessary.
- the tutorial now renders just fine in all common browsers
v0.4.0
------
Release date: 2006-02-28
Release notes:
This release includes one major change:
- Public methods will now only throw exceptions that extend PEAR_Exception.
No PEAR errors or special XML will be returned anymore.
Therefore the public method XML_Query2XML::factory() now
only knows one argument.
v0.3.0
------
Release date: 2006-02-25
Release notes:
This release includes two major changes:
- XML_Query2XML now uses PHP5's DOM XML extension. Therefore
DomDocument, DomNode, etc are now used in favor of XML_Query2XML_XMLElement.
XML_Query2XML does not come with XML_Query2XML_XMLElement anymore!
- Back to the roots! XML_Query2XML concentrates on its core features and
therefore drops the functionality of generating an XML schema from XML data.
Minor changes:
- reduction of unit tests (fewer public methods to test): 20
- complete review of the tutorial and the API documentation
- changes of testCases.sh: schema validation is not supported
anymore
v0.2.0
------
Release date: 2006-02-08
Release notes:
The first public release v0.2.0 is available!
Just download the package and run `pear install <package_file>'.
Alternatively you can also directly run
`pear install http://query2xml.sourceforge.net/releases/XML_Query2XML-0.2.0.tgz'.
This release includes
- in-depth documentation: tutorials and API documentation
- 6 case studies: from very simple to highly complex scenarios
- 104 unit tests for PHPUnit
- minor bug fixes
- development was moved to sourceforge's CVS server
