Propel 1.6 Beta 2 Release
Propel development team announced the second (and last) beta release of Propel 1.6 on their official website. It’s primarily the bugfixed update of the beta 1 version released more than a month ago but it also contains a number of new features. Among the new improvements are:
- more convenient way to add OR to the queries;
- model-only relationships (this feature allows to share relationships even though the underlying tables aren't linked by a foreign key);
- support for Oracle tablespaces;
- a system of priorities for behavior execution;
- service class for advanced PHP code manipulation.
Besides, like the previous Beta 1, Propel 1.6 Beta 2 is backwards compatible with Propel 1.5. Since this is the last beta version of Propel 1.5, it’s also the last chance for developers to contribute if they want new features to be added.
