MidCOM 2.4.3 released

MidCOM is the default Content Management interface in Midgard CMS, and provides developers a production-proven architecture for building new web applications. With the MidCOM framework PHP applications have powerful localization, configuration, templating and data abstraction features. This is the first bugfix release for the current stable strain, which add also a few minor features from the current development branch.

Noteworthy changes since the 2.4.2 release:

• Baseclasses
• The Request base class now provides more information in the _on_handle callback, matching the signature of other handler callbacks.
• The Admin Request base class now provides three event handlers which are called from the config handler (in order):
  
1. void _on_handler_config_dm_preparing()
2. void _on_handler_config_dm_prepared()
3. void _on_handler_config_dm_saved()
• Cache
• Live mode now automatically sets the internal no_cache flag, this avoids some headers-have-been-sent errors.
• Protected no_cache against already sent header situations.
  
• Core
• The component loader now dumps a list of all loaded components at the end of load_all(), for easier debugging of component startup failures.
• Datamanager
• Added a finnsih localization of the date widget.
• Added an web-calendar icon to the date widget.
• Component changes:
• Sitewizard (midcom.admin.sitewizard)
• Added error logging if the component startup fails.
• Supportview (net.nemein.supportview)
• Added error logging if the component startup fails.
• Site Search aka MidCOM Indexer Frontend (midcom.helper.search)
• A Finnish localization has been added.
• The default style now uses the topic title as a page heading.
