List of API changes from 1.5 to 2.5?

Post by rand486 » Wed Jan 11, 2012 7:18 pm

Back when I migrated from 1.0 to 1.5, I saw a few collections of the changes made to the API to help people make their extensions 1.5 native.

Does such a collection exist for 1.5 to 2.5 yet?

I've got a sizable extension to write in the near future, and I'd like to accomodate both versions, as I don't know when we'll be migrating to 2.5.

Thanks as always!

Hi There

First port of call may be to check out the following...

http://docs.joomla.org/Making_single_in ... .6_and_1.7

I don't personally know an actual list of API changes at this moment in time, but someone will surely do this soon I'm sure.

Let me know if you do find anything.

Cheers ;-)

Thanks, I love the entry:
You will regularly bump into cases where an API has changed between Joomla! 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7.
That's pretty much what I've been dealing with, yup. Looks like trial and error for now :P

I'll just write for 1.5 and do my best to keep the code as clean as possible to make it easier to correct down the line.
