<h1>Upgrade notes</h1>
This is a list of API changes for all LAM releases.
<br>
<br>
<h2>3.6 -> 3.7</h2>Module interface:<br>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">postModifyActions()</span>: Must return an array containing any messages to display</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">preModifyActions():</span> Changed return value from boolean to array of message arrays</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">passwordService interface:</span>
new function supportsForcePasswordChange() and changed function
passwordChangeRequested() to support password change at next login <br>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">getSelfServiceOptions()/checkSelfServiceOptions():</span> added parameter to specify if only password changes are allowed</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">handleAjaxRequest():</span> This new function allows AJAX requests to be answered by modules</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">getSelfServiceSettings():</span> New parameter $profile that contains the full self service profile object<br>
</li>
</ul>
<br>
<h2>3.5.0 -> 3.6</h2>
LAM now supports client-side validation (required + numeric fields). See htmlInputField::setValidationRule().<br>
<br>
<h2>3.4.0 -> 3.5.0</h2>
The old meta HTML code is no longer supported. Please use the new solution based on htmlElement (see lib/html.inc).<br>
<br>
<h2>3.3.0 -> 3.4.0</h2>
Module interface:<br>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">save_attributes():</span> Can
now contain a return value 'info' => array() with values for
pre/postModify actions</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">checkSelfServiceOptions():</span> Can now contain a return value 'info' => array() with values for
pre/postModify actions</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">getSelfServiceOptions():</span> This function no longer supports the old meta HTML. Additionally, the module name must be specified for all help links.<br>
</li>
</ul>
<br>
<h2>3.2.0 -> 3.3.0</h2>
The cache class was removed. Please use local caching and the functions
searchLDAP... instead of get_cache().<br>
The return values for baseModule::pre/postDeleteActions() were changed
to an array of StatusMessage parameters.
<br>
CSS class TYPElist-sort removed without replacement.<br>
<br>
<h2>3.1.0 -> 3.2.0</h2>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Account types: </span>The CSS classes
have changed.
<ul>
<li>tr.TYPElist-over: removed without replacement</li>
<li>tr.TYPElist-checked: removed without replacement</li>
<li>tr.TYPElist: renamed to .TYPElist-bright</li>
<li>tr.TYPElist-head: renamed to .TYPElist-dark</li>
<li>th.TYPElist-sort: renamed to .TYPElist-sort</li>
<li>td.TYPEnav-text: removed without replacement </li>
</ul>
<br>
<br>
<h2>3.0.0 -> 3.1.0</h2>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Module interface:</span> There is a
new object-oriented library to
generate HTML for the account modules (e.g. used for
display_html_attributes()). This will allow additional functionality
like client side validation. Please see lib/html.inc or package
metaHTML in the phpdoc documentation.<br>
<span style="color: red; font-weight: bold;">Attention: </span><span style="color: red; font-weight: bold;">The getSelfServiceOptions()
function no longer supports the old meta HTML. </span><span style="color: red; font-weight: bold;">The other functions will
support the old array-based meta HTML elements only until Q2/2011! </span><br>
<br>
The PDF editor now supports descriptive PDF
fields. You can use this by returning an associative array for the PDF
fields (e.g. array('macAddress' => _('MAC address'))) in <span style="font-weight: bold;">get_pdfFields()</span> or the meta data.<br>
The old format is still supported. LAM will continue to show the field
name as label in this case.<br>
<br>
<br>
<h2>2.9.0 -> 3.0.0</h2>
You can now integrate JavaScript libraries by simply putting the files
into templates/lib. All files with the name *.js are automatically
included on all pages.<br>
There is a new log level LOG_DEBUG available for logNewMessage().
<br>
<h3>Module interface:</h3>
The function
<span style="font-weight: bold;">build_uploadAccounts()</span>
has a new parameter
<span style="font-weight: bold;">$selectedModules</span>.<br>
<h3>Type interface:</h3>
The new function <span style="font-weight: bold;">supportsFileUpload()</span>
specifies if file uploads are supported (default true).<br>
<br>
<br>
<h2>2.8.0 -> 2.9.0</h2>
Several functions of the <span style="font-weight: bold;">cache</span>
class were removed.<br>
<br>
<br>
<h2>2.5.0 -> 2.6.0</h2>
The class <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">baseType</span>
has two new member variables:<br>
<ul>
<li>$LABEL_CREATE_ANOTHER_ACCOUNT</li>
<li>$LABEL_BACK_TO_ACCOUNT_LIST</li>
</ul>
They can be used to show a more specific text when the user is asked to
create another account or return back to the account list.<br>
<br>
The meta HTML code now supports image buttons.<br>
<br>
<br>
<h2>2.4.0 -> 2.5.0</h2>
<h3>Self service</h3>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">$selfServiceSettings</span> in class <span style="font-style: italic;">baseModule</span> is now an object of the
class <span style="font-style: italic;">selfServiceProfile.</span>
This way all profile settings can be read. To access the module
settings use <span style="font-weight: bold;">$this->selfServiceSettings->moduleSettings</span>.<br>
<br>
<br>
<h2>2.2.0 -> 2.3.0</h2>
<h3>Style changes</h3>
If you have defined your own account types then you need to update your
CSS files (style/type_<type>.css).<br>
Please change "table.<type>list input,select" to
"table.<type>list input,select,button" and
"fieldset.<type>edit input" to "fieldset.<type>edit
input,select,button". "fieldset.<type>edit select" may be deleted
afterwards.<br>
<br>
<br>
<h2>2.1.0 -> 2.2.0</h2>
<h3>Account lists</h3>
Account lists now support to define tools. These are displayed as
linked images like the edit and delete links in the list.<br>
Overwrite <span style="font-weight: bold;">lamList::getAdditionalTools()</span>
to use this feature.<br>
<br>
The definition of account list options changed. The function <span style="font-weight: bold;">lamList::getAdditionalTools()</span> is no
longer available. Use these functions instead: <span style="font-weight: bold;">lamList::listGetAllConfigOptions()</span>
and <span style="font-weight: bold;">lamList::listConfigurationChanged()</span>.<br>
All options are now saved in cookies for one year.<br>
<br>
<h3>Base module</h3>
The <span style="font-weight: bold;">baseModule</span> class has a new
protected option: <span style="font-weight: bold;">$autoAddObjectClasses
</span>You can set it to false if you do not want that your module's
object classes are added when creating or loading an account.<br>
<br>
Account modules can now have icons. See <span style="font-weight: bold;">baseModule->getIcon()</span>.<br>
<br>
<h3>Constructors</h3>
LAM now uses the PHP5 syntax for constructors: <span style="font-weight: bold;">__construct()<br>
<br>
</span>
<h3>Extended security model</h3>
Each server profile now defines an access level.<br>
<br>
Currently these are:<br>
<ul>
<li>write access</li>
<li>password changes</li>
<li>read access<br>
</li>
</ul>
<span style="font-weight: bold;"></span> Please check your code and
prohibit any actions which do not fit the current access level.<br>
There are two new functions in <span style="font-style: italic;">security.inc</span>:
<span style="font-weight: bold;">checkIfWriteAccessIsAllowed()</span>
and <span style="font-weight: bold;">checkIfPasswordChangeIsAllowed()</span><br>
Only LAM Pro allows to change the access level from <span style="font-style: italic;">write access</span> to a smaller level.<br>
<br>
<br>
<h2>2.0.0 -> 2.1.0</h2>
<h3><span style="font-weight: bold;">Style changes</span></h3>
<ul>
<li>"fieldset.<type>edit fieldset" and
"fieldset.<type>edit fieldset fieldset" were removed.</li>
<li>"table.<type>list input" changed to "table.<type>list
input,select"</li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="font-weight: bold;">baseModule</span></h3>
The class variable<span style="font-style: italic;"> $base</span>
is no longer visible in child classes. Please use <span style="font-style: italic;">$this->getAccountContainer()</span> to
access the accountContainer object.<br>
<br>
Several other class variables in accountContainer etc. are now private.
Use the new access methods.<br>
<br>
<br>
<h2>1.3.0 -> 2.0.0</h2>
LAM is now PHP5 only. Several variables are now private and need to be
accessed via functions.<br>
<br>
<br>
<h2>1.2.0 -> 1.3.0</h2>
<h3><span style="font-weight: bold;">New lamList functions</span></h3>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">listPrintTableCellContent():</span>
This function allows you to control how the LDAP attributes are
displayed in the table. This can be used to display links or binary
data.</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">listPrintAdditionalOptions():</span>
If you want to display additional conrols for a list please use this
function. The controls will be placed under the account table.<br>
</li>
</ul>
No more lamdaemon commands via delete_attributes() and
save_attributes() in account modules.<br>
Please use these new functions to call lamdaemon directly:<br>
<ul>
<li>preModifyActions()</li>
<li>postModifyActions()</li>
<li>preDeleteActions()</li>
<li>postDeleteActions()</li>
</ul>
<br>
<h2>1.1.x -> 1.2.0</h2>
<h3><span style="font-weight: bold;">API changes</span></h3>
<ul>
<li>removed get_configDescription() from module interface</li>
</ul>
<br>
<h2>1.0.4 -> 1.1.0</h2>
<h3><span style="font-weight: bold;">API changes</span></h3>
<ul>
<li>removed $post parameters from module functions
(delete_attributes(), process_...(), display_html_...()). Use $_POST
instead.</li>
<li>process_...()
functions: returned messages are no longer grouped (e.g. return:
array(array('INFO', 'headline', 'text'), array('INFO', 'headline2',
'text2')))</li>
</ul>
<br>
<h2>1.0.0 -> 1.0.2</h2>
<h3><span style="font-weight: bold;">New module functions</span></h3>
<ul>
<li>getRequiredExtensions: Allows to define required PHP extensions</li>
<li>getManagedObjectClasses: Definition of managed object classes for
this module</li>
<li>getLDAPAliases: list of LDAP alias names which are replaced by LAM</li>
<li>getManagedAttributes: list of LDAP attributes which are managed
by this module</li>
</ul>
The LDAP attributes are no longer loaded by reading the LDAP schema. If
your module does not implement the load_attributes() function then you
have to use getManagedAttributes() or the meta data to specify them.<br>
<br>
The class variable "triggered_messages" in baseModule was removed.<br>
<br>
