Revision history for Perl extension ORM.

0.8  Sun Dec  4 18:47:22 2005
    - original version; created by h2xs 1.23 with options -AX -n ORM

    New features:
        - Implemented reverse properties
        - Implemented object linking on arbitrary properties
        - Modify '_db_type_to_class' to accepts field_name and field_type arguments
        - Implement transactions
        - Modify ORM->stat to add ability to load several objects by one query
        - Use cache in ORM::Db::DBI->select_full
        - Implement object cache
        - Deny use of intermediate classes without their own tables, because in opposite case
          when exist 2 intermediate classes derived from one base class
          then search through one of child classes also finds objects of second class.
        - Implement use of ORM::Expr with 'update'
        - Add SQL logging feature to ORM::Db
        - Implement separate layer for DB operations
        - Autoreconnect to SQL server after "Mysql server has gone away"
        - Add method ORM->stat()
        - Feature to use sealed classes (when primary table does not contain class field)
        - Argument lazy_load to ORM->stat(), which allows to use lazy loaded objects
        - Lazy loaded objects, implement 2 variants:
          - variant 1: known only 'id' and nothing loaded
          - variant 2: loaded only tables of primary class
        - Use of third party classes as object properties
        - Calculated meta-properties (ORM::Metaprop incapsulates ORM::Expr)
        - ORM should log changes history via ORM::History
        - Initial class configuration:
          - global parameter 'history_is_enabled'
          - posibility to enable/disable hostory on per class basis
          - global parameter 'emulate_foreign_keys'
          - method 'new', 'update', 'delete' should accept argument to enable/disable history
            for particular operation
        - Implement object changes history
        - Produce separate initial class from ORM for every separate object model
        - Use ORM::Db->qt to quote table names, ORM::Db->qf to quote field names, ORM::Db->qi to quote aliases
        - Use ORM::Db->qi to quote table names and field names
        - Add redefineable method ORM->_db_type_to_class

    Fixes:
        - Delete method ORM::Metaprop->_expanded
        - Reimplement table joins
        - Fix automatic loading of related modules
        - Modify 'update' method
          - Wrong compare of properties: $arg{prop}->{$prop} ne $self->{_ORM_data}->{$prop}
          - add check, whether object was changed after it was fetched from DB
          - ability to update objetc only when its properties are equal to those assumed by user
        - Fix _validate_prop
        - Fix ORM::Tjoin
        - ORM::History->rollback should delete rolled back history entries from 'history' table
        - Replace calls to isa to UNIVERSAL::isa
        - Stop using obsoletted ORM::db_auth
        - Move automatic init of 'cdate' properties from ORM to my initial class;
