  • BUG FIXING: with the LC_LOCALE_CURRENCY_SYMBOL set to NULL, the \api\Locale::getCurrencySymbol() method returned an incorrect character when the currency symbol was not encoded in UTF-8. Now, if the currency symbol is not encoded in UTF-8, it is decoded from the Windows-1252 character set.
  • BUG FIXING: with the LC_LOCALE_THOUSANDS_SEPARATOR set to NULL, the \api\Locale::getThousandsSeparator() method returned a space character which does not match the ASCII space character (value 20 in Hexadecimal).
  • BUG FIXING: according to the PHP server configuration, the \Request::getAcceptLanguage() could return a NULL value while the HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE server variable was properly defined.
  • BUG FIXING: the \Convert::valuesToAnsi() method uses now the Windows-1252 encoding instead of the ISO-8859-1 encoding, in particular to correctly convert the euro character.
  • BUG FIXING: the \Convert::valuesToAnsi() and \Convert::toUTF8() methods are no longer based on the utf8_decode() and utf8_encode() PHP functions for they are deprecated in PHP 8.2.
    If no encoding/decoding function is installed (i.e. iconv function or mbstring and intl extensions), then an exception is thrown..

Version 2.8 released on December 12, 2022
  • CHANGE: class names now conform to the PSR-4 autoloading standard. This means that a PHP script named MyClass.php corresponding to the definition of MyClass is now loaded automatically. In the previous version of ZnetDK, the same PHP script had to be named myclass.php to be automatically loaded.
  • CHANGE: new \DAO::setAmountColumns(), \DAO::setMoneyColumns() and \DAO::setDateColumns() to set up the SQL table columns to format according to locale settings when retrieving data rows via \SimpleDAO::getRows().
  • CHANGE: the phone and notes specified for a user are now displayed on the user list.
  • CHANGE: new \Response::setCustomContent() method to return custom content (HTML, XML, text, ...) from a controller action in response of an http request.
  • CHANGE: calling a web service with http GET method is now accepted when the corresponding controller and action are authorized by setting the CFG_ACTIONS_ALLOWED_FOR_WEBSERVICE_USERS parameter. In previous version, only controller's actions named 'download' could be called with the http GET method. This possibility can be particularly useful when a controller action is to be executed from a webcron service.
  • CHANGE: new optional parameter '$sanitize' added to the \UserSession::setCustomValue() and \UserSession::getCustomValue() methods. When this parameter is set to TRUE (FALSE by default), the custom value is sanitized before being stored in user session or returned from user session.
  • CHANGE: \General::isPictureTooBig() private method is converted to a public method to check if a photo is too big to be reduced in regards of the available memory in the PHP process. Initially only called by the \General::reducePictureSize() method to avoid memory allocation error, \General::isPictureTooBig(), now can be called with a custom $tweakFactor value (set by defaut to 1.65 in previous version of ZnetDK, this value has been increased to 2) before reducing a photo.
  • CHANGE: \General::reducePictureSize() method no longer returns FALSE on error. Instead, a ZDKException is thrown ('GEN-003' to 'GEN-006').
  • CHANGE: new $tweakFactor parameter (set to 2 by default) added to the \General::reducePictureSize() method.
  • CHANGE: new CFG_IS_IN_MAINTENANCE parameter to close access to the application. A message is then displayed to inform users that the application is temporarily in maintenance. The LC_MSG_ERR_MAINTENANCE constant can be overloaded in the 'locale.php' script of the application to customize the message.
  • CHANGE: the date format set through the LC_LOCALE_DATE_FORMAT must now conform to that used by the DateTime::format() PHP method. The previous supported format was the one used by the strftime() PHP function which is deprecated in PHP version 8.1.
  • CHANGE: Http request data filtering can be globally disabled by setting 'NONE' to the CFG_REQUEST_VARIABLE_FILTERING_LEVEL parameter. In addition, the \Request::setVariableFilteringLevel() method accepts the value 'NONE' as parameter to disable value filtering for a specific Http request only.
  • CHANGE: \Request::setTrimedCharacters() method now returns a boolean value. If the '$trimedCharacters' parameter is not NULL or is not a string then a FALSE value is returned.
  • CHANGE: controller\Users::notify() method removed as it was not useful.
  • CHANGE: new znetdkMobile.list.loadedCallback property to define a custom function to call after list's rows are fully loaded. This function has two parameters which contain the number of rows loaded and the data page number loaded.
  • CHANGE: new znetdkMobile.list.afterInsertRowCallback property to define a custom function to call after a row has been inserted in a list. This function has one parameter which contains the new inserted list item as a jQuery element. This callback function can be useful for example to set draggable the list item once added to the list.
  • CHANGE: new topspacechange event triggered when the space between the top of the view container and the top of the page change, for example when the secondary menu is shown on multiple lines, when a message is displayed through the znetdkMobile.messages.add() method, or when the "Install the App?" message is cleared.
  • CHANGE: a column header is now displayed on top of the user and profile lists when the screen is a large screen.

  • BUG FIXING: the 'maxlength' attribute of the 'profile_description' input field was wrongly set to 100 instead of 200.
  • BUG FIXING: in PHP 8.1, integers and floats in result sets are by default returned using native PHP types instead of strings. To restore the behavior of earlier versions of PHP, the PDO::ATTR_STRINGIFY_FETCHES option is now forced to true.
  • BUG FIXING: in PHP 8.1, error "E_DEPRECATED - Function strftime() is deprecated - engine\core\convert.php(116)".
  • BUG FIXING: in PHP 8.1, error "E_DEPRECATED - Constant FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING is deprecated".
  • BUG FIXING: in PHP 8.1, error "E_DEPRECATED - php_function_name(): Passing null to parameter #X ($parametername) of type string is deprecated" where 'php_function_name' is an internal PHP function name, '#X' is the parameter position and '$parametername' is the concerned function parameter name.
  • BUG FIXING: in PHP 8.1, error "E_DEPRECATED - Implicit conversion from float to int loses precision" when executing \General::reducePictureSize() method.
  • BUG FIXING: on HTTP error 403 or 404, the page reloading confirmation message ('beforeunload' JS event) was shown unnecessarily after clicking the link to return to the home page.
  • BUG FIXING: on HTTP error 403 or 404, the installation panel "Install the App?" was shown unnecessarily.
  • BUG FIXING: the confirmation message "A confirmation email has been sent to you." was not displayed after submitting the email address on new password request (clicking the "forgotten password?" link).
  • BUG FIXING: the znetdkMobile.form.getInputValue() method returned false and the error message "The input type='undefined' is not supported!" was displayed in the browser's console when an input field was declared in a form without specifying the type attribute. Now, if the type attribute is not specified for an input field, it is considered to be of type "text".
Version 2.7 released on August 18, 2022
  • CHANGE: input fields are now surrounded by a red border in case of form validation error.
  • CHANGE: new jQuery events triggered before (beforeshow) and after (aftershow) displaying a modal dialog. If the beforeshow event handler returns false, the modal dialog is not displayed.

  • CHANGE: the message displayed after the user changes their password is now a "snackbar" type message rather than a message in a blue panel.
  • CHANGE: the message displayed after editing a user's information or deleting a user is now a "snackbar" type message rather than a message in a blue panel.
  • CHANGE: new "My user rights" button added to the user panel to display the user profiles assigned to the connected user and to indicate whether she or he has a full menu access or not.
  • CHANGE: when 'Remember me' is checked on the login form, the user's login name is stored in the browser's local storage and is pre-populated on subsequent displays of the login form.
  • CHANGE: new "Installation" and "Uninstallation" buttons added to the user panel in order to help users to install the Application on their devices and to uninstall it. The modal dialogs shown when clicking these new buttons can also be displayed by calling the two following methods: znetdkMobile.install.showInstallView() and znetdkMobile.install.showUninstallView().
  • CHANGE: new CFG_MOBILE_INSTALL_MESSAGE_DISPLAY_AUTO parameter to enable or disable automatic display of a message to install the application (Add 2 Home Screen). Set to TRUE by default, this value can be changed to FALSE in the config.php script of the application. This message can also be displayed on demand by calling the znetdkMobile.install.showInstallableMessage() method.
  • CHANGE: new znetdkMobile.install.isAppInstallable() and znetdkMobile.install.isAppInstalled() methods respectively to know if the application is installable and if it is already installed.

  • CHANGE: new $includeArchived parameter (set to TRUE by default) added to the \UserManager::getUsersHavingProfile() method. When set to FALSE, archived users are excluded from the returned users.
  • CHANGE: new znetdkMobile.list.beforeInsertRowCallback property to define a custom function to call each time a row is inserted in a list. This function has one parameter which contains the data to display for the row. This data can be modified within the function before displaying the row. This callback function can be useful to format data before row insertion.
  • CHANGE: for optimization purpose, AJAX requests are no longer sent by a znetdkMobile.autocomplete input field when the previously entered keyword does not match any suggestions.
  • CHANGE: for performance purpose, suggestions returned by AJAX requests when entering a keyword in a znetdkMobile.autocomplete input field can be cached in memory to reduce network traffic. To enable caching, set znetdkMobile.autocomplete.maxNumberOfCachedItems to a value greater than zero (set to zero by default). To clear the cache once a suggestion is selected, change the value znetdkMobile.autocomplete.cacheLifetime to 'selection' ('page' is set by default, meaning that cache is kept until user leaves the application).
  • BUG FIXING: when calling the DAO::store() method with an empty row id value (i.e. '') and the $emptyValuesToNull parameter is FALSE (default case), then the SQL statement generated is no longer an UPDATE but an INSERT instead.
  • BUG FIXING: for optimization purpose, the user profile list displayed for each user in the user list (menu Authorizations | Users) is no longer created by querying profiles in SQL for each user (now, only one SQL query is executed for all displayed users).

  • BUG FIXING: ajax requests could be executed twice after the user's session expired if a JS error occurred while executing them from the queue.
  • BUG FIXING: the login name was not displayed in the login field after reloading of the application once session was expired.
  • BUG FIXING: JS error message "TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'replace')" was displayed when the rendering callback function passed to the znetdkMobile.autocomplete.make() method did not returned a string value.
  • BUG FIXING: JS error message displayed in web browser console about znetdkMobile.log.e$() function that is not defined when a JS error is detected after a view loading through the znetdkMobile.ajax.loadView() method (issue in minification of mobile-min.js version 2.6).
Version 2.6 released on June 03, 2022

  • CHANGE: new CFG_REQUEST_VARIABLE_FILTERING_LEVEL parameter to specify the filtering level applied by default when reading HTTP request variables by calling the\Request() getter method (i.e $request->my_var). Value 'HIGH' is set by default (PHP filter_var() function is applied with FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING filter and FILTER_FLAG_NO_ENCODE_QUOTES option). Other allowed value is 'LOW' (PHP strip_tags() function is applied and the string '<=' is preserved if exists in the text to filter).
  • CHANGE: new \Request::setVariableFilteringLevel() to change the default value set through the CFG_REQUEST_VARIABLE_FILTERING_LEVEL parameter. Allowed parameters are 'LOW' and 'HIGH'.
  • CHANGE: Flash Of Unstyled Content (FOUC) is now prevented on application loading.

    `email` VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL COMMENT 'Email address',
    `request_date_time` DATETIME NOT NULL COMMENT 'Request date time',
    `reset_key` VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL COMMENT 'Reset key',

  • BUG FIXING: the 'textarea' and 'select' HTML fields were wrongly editable after calling the znetdkMobile.form.setReadOnly() method.
  • BUG FIXING: when displaying the user form of the 'mobile' page layout (see 'z4musers.php'), the list of profiles was loaded twice through AJAX request instead of once.
  • BUG FIXING: the decimal separator of a float number stored in session through the \UserSession::setCustomValue() method, was missing next when retrieving the float number value calling the \UserSession::getCustomValue() method.
  • BUG FIXING: JavaScript exception thrown when the value returned by the remote PHP controller for a checkbox or radio button input is empty, on calling the znetdkMobile.form.load() method.
  • BUG FIXING: the error message "The multiple input element with name='myinput' is not supported!" was displayed into the browser console when calling the znetdkMobile.form.getInputValue() method with a radio button input name as parameter while no radio button was selected. Now, the null value is returned instead and no error message is longer triggered.
Version 2.1 released on October 15, 2019
  • CHANGE: the 'autocomplete' HTML attributes are set to 'username' and 'current-password' into the login form to allow the web browser to memorize the credentials.
  • CHANGE: data-icon attribute added to the 'custom' layout menu hyperlink for display. The data-icon value is set from the icon value indicated into the 'menu.php' script by calling the \MenuManager::addMenuItem() method.
  • CHANGE: new page layout dedicated to mobile applications enabled when the CFG_PAGE_LAYOUT paramater is set to 'mobile' into the 'config.php' script of the application. For full documentation, go to the mobile.znetdf.fr website.
  • CHANGE: new 'action_detail' method added to the ZnetDK \Profile controller class to get detailed informations of a user profile through an AJAX call.
  • CHANGE: new 'action_detail' method added to the ZnetDK \Users controller class to get detailed informations of a user through an AJAX call.
  • CHANGE: new \SimpleDAO ZnetDK class for selecting and updating a table content in database without the need of declaring a custom DAO class. This new DAO object is perfect for executing simple operations on one SQL table.
  • CHANGE: additional CSS and JavaScript librairies can be added to a ZnetDK application through the CFG_APPLICATION_CSS and CFG_APP_JS parameters set into the 'config.php' application script. These libraries can be CDN libraries hosted out of the machine hosting the ZnetDK application. To set multiple libraries, declare them using a PHP serialized array.
  • CHANGE: the filename of a CSS or JavaScript internal librairies is now suffixed by a timestamp value (i.e. '/mypath/mylib.js?v=12545656') calculated from its modification date and time. So, newly modified server-side libraries get reloaded if they are newer than those existing in the web browser cache.
  • CHANGE: an offline page is displayed when calling in HTTP GET the resource http(s)://mydomain/offline. The offline page content can be customized by adding a 'offline.php' view into the 'applications/default/app/view' folder.
  • CHANGE: new 'action_isconnected' method added to the ZnetDK \Security controller class to check through an AJAX call if the user's session has not expired. This controller action can be called for example, before downloading a document for which authentication is required.
  • CHANGE: in the root .htaccess file of ZnetDK, the 404 HTTP errors are now managed using the rewrite engine module if installed rather than using the ErrorDocument 404 directive.
  • BUG FIXING: on some Linux Hosting systems, the following MySQL error message "Invalid datetime format: 1366 Incorrect integer value" was displayed when calling the ZnetDK \DAO::store method with boolean type values set to false for storage in a MySQL table column with an integer datatype.
  • BUG FIXING: an error 404 was displayed when calling a PHP view with the SEO url specified into 'menu.php' script through the \MenuManager::addMenuItem() method (case of the CFG_VIEW_PAGE_RELOAD parameter set to TRUE into the 'config.php' of the application).
  • BUG FIXING: the 'type="text/javascript"' attribute of the HTML script tag is no longer specified to avoid the following W3C validator warning error: "The type attribute is unnecessary for JavaScript resources."
  • BUG FIXING: the "CORE - E_WARNING - scandir(..engine/modules): failed to open dir" warning message is no longer displayed when the ZnetDK 'engine/modules' directory is missing.
