APIGen v4.0.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2015-01-03 // over 9 years ago

  • Why Skip 3.0?

    🔖 Version 3.0 was skipped, because master branch had 3.0-dev alias with code
    base similar to 2.8. Since then there were many BC breaks, thus major version was bumped to 4.0.

    🚀 This release closes refactoring of version 2.8. Its aim was to improve code base, provide fairly high code coverage (from 0 % in 2.8) to improve further development and close old pull-requests. Now it's at 84 %, which really makes changes easier.

    Saying that, next version will focus on:

    • 🆕 new features based on issues/PR from you , end users.
    • website management
    • 📦 package decoupling
    • 📚 documentation

    🔄 Changes

    🛠 Bugfixes

    • 🛠 [#490] reading options from apigen.neon fixed
    • 🛠 [#434] PHAR installation simplified and fixed for cross platform
    • 🏁 [#465] relative path on Windows fixed
    • 📦 [#375] constant version returned, so now it's available in composer installed packages as well
