New I18N related feature for ZF 1.0.4
For interested people I attached a small description of changes between 1.0.3 and 1.0.4 of Zend Framework which are related to the I18N core:
All classes:
* Failed autodetection no longer throws a exception (seen under Ubutu in past)
Zend_Date:
* Timezones now work even if the new DateTime extension is not present (seen under PHP < 5.2 and self compiled Linux version)
* added a note about the ISO year and real year formats as both are often switched by users which produces unexpected behaviour
Zend_Locale:
* setting a default locale is now supported, default is “en” but it can be set to anything else
* included the new CLDR 1.5.1 and reworked the data classes which adds several new informations to be available… f.e. timezone for region, currency for language and much much more
* added detection for @ locales (f.e. de_DE@euro)
Zend_TimeSync:
* added a new component to syncronise the server time when there is no service available
Zend_Validate:
* added support for localized dates for Zend_Validate_Date
Zend_View_Helper_Translate:
* added a new View Helper for allowing translations from within the view
Informations for the new ZF 1.5 will come soon
