CodeIgniter 1.6.0 Released
As previously posted, CodeIgniter 1.6.0 has now been released to the public!
Here’s a quick overview of the update:
- A Database Forge class: database agnostic table and field manipulation
- An enhanced Active Record library
- A revised Session Class with “flash variables” and additional security
- An extendable Model Class with auto-loadable Models
- Extendable Helpers, and additions and enhancements to existing Helpers
- A revised view architecture that allows for simple inclusion of multiple views
- And over 120 different enhancements, improvements and bug fixes
Although this update has been a long time coming, it’s definately a step in the right direction for the framework.
Derek Allard has posted some positive news about the future release cycle of codeigniter too:
What’s even more exciting? Development on CodeIgniter is moving forward in earnest. There are great things on the horizon, and as soon as some of the 1.6 dust settles, we’ll be ready to kick up more dust in the form of another version, with a raft of new features. I expect the release cycle to get much tighter now
Expression Engine will also be updating to version 2 soon, and if you’re luck enough to get yourself to SXSW this year, Ellislabs will have a sneak preview available, along with loads of other great events.
So, update your CI and check out some of the great new features!
