Notes &
Working on 2.0
Dear friends!
We are currently in a middle of major reorganization of Circumflex API, which will soon be known to the world as Circumflex 2.0. This reorganization implies breaking Circumflex Core module into two:
circumflex-core, which will only contain Context API, Configuration API, Messages API and some utilities;circumflex-webwill contain full-blown Web Application Framework with main ideas from Circumflex 1.x.
As a result, Circumflex ORM and all other components will no longer depend on Servlet API.
New set of functionality is coming out, too. Circumflex 2.0 will feature more robust API for accessing request and response, as well as file uploading, more flexible transaction demarcation patterns and some SQL dialects in ORM. We will also get our hands dirty on documenting our stuff, so you won’t need (hopefully) to look through our sources to understand, how things work.
Circumflex 2.0 will also feature support of Scalate templates. Chirino’s branch already contains the module and shows how to use their view technologies on ciridiri and cx-site. circumflex-scalate module will be included in 2.0 release.
We do our best to keep backward compatibility with Circumflex 1.x. However, some architectural improvements will require you to revisit your code.
You can monitor our progress at branch 2.0.
Thank you for using Circumflex, guys! Have fun!
