A new version (1.30) of OpenInteract has been released to
CPAN. OpenInteract is an extensible web application server built on
Apache, mod_perl, the Template Toolkit and SPOPS object persistence.
This upgrade has some new features, feature enhancements and bugfixes
and is fairly substantial. However, there should be no upgrading
issues as in the 1.1 -> 1.2 transition. Some of the larger changes:
- A new class (OpenInteract::CommonHandler) makes it very easy to
create common search/display/edit/remove tasks that act on data in a
database.
- Some simple template widgets are included, which make it easy to
centralize common visual elements.
- Template performance should be improved dramatically, since both
template caching and compiling work properly now
- A new package ('lookup') is included to enable editing of lookup
table data without writing any code at all.
As always, the 'Changes' file has many more items and details.
