Symfony2 PR12 released

April 19, 2011 Fabien Potencier

We have just released Symfony2 PR12. It only contains small bug fixes and enhancements, but also a major security fix which allowed all users to switch to arbitrary accounts when the SwitchUserListener is activated (configurations which do not use the SwitchUserListener are not affected).

This is the last preview release as the form branch will be merged just after this release. As we will keep releasing one version per week, the first beta release of Symfony2 will be published next week.

Does this mean that starting with the first bèta the features and API will be frozen and only bugs will be fixed? Or are there still planned changes?

Can you please answer the questions about API freeze and documentation. I am choosing a framework for the project that starts late May. Is it safe to use symfony 2 at the of May?

All classes, methods, and properties tagged with @api are public in the sense that we guarantee their stability over time: their name, signature, and behavior won't change for any minor version of the library

@Ilya : IMO, yes, because the form branch is actualy the blocking component, but he will be merged for next week in the first Beta

Very good news... thanks a lot for your hard work. I'm already working on a huge project that will be supported by Symfony2. :-)

Very good news, (all) your work is appreciated very much!

You guys at symfony are a bunch of sad pathetic human beings , all you're doing is copying the Java concept to php.

Greg Militello said on Apr 20, 2011 at 19:44 #21

@404, Thanks for your opinion. However the "Java concept" as you describe it is not the goal of Symfony. PHP as a language in recent years has started to adopt capabilities of other languages (Name spaces, and Closures for example) however none of these concepts is unique to Java. In fact comparing Symfony to Java is akin to comparing my cup of coffee to the Eiffel Tower. We who love Symfony wish you the best in your endeavors.

Thank you for your work! this is indeed a very good news

I like the symfony projects. These websites have very good performance.It is easy to optimize for search engines.

Lukas said on Apr 22, 2011 at 07:06 #24

For those wondering what beta means:
" Entering beta means that all the main features of the framework will be available. That does not mean that we won't break backward compatibility here and there, but all these changes will be documented to ease migration."

Congratulations! I'm currently using Symfony 1.4 for my projects, but I think I will move to Symfony2 soon. Well done!

Enkuso said on Apr 23, 2011 at 07:29 #26

Great news. Keep going hard work.

Waiting more documentation...

Tony said on Apr 23, 2011 at 22:53 #27

I'm not sure if this feature is missing (I think it is), but could you please implement a logger feature for missing translations in the symfony translator?
That way the developers could work and put 'tokens' whenever translation is needed. Afterwards the translators would just peek in the logs and translate any entry that is missing from the catalogues.

Thanks in advance!

Mark said on Apr 24, 2011 at 13:20 #28

Is there also a console command to extract strings to be translated and to create the corresponding xliff file as in symfony 1.4?

I've got this error "Fatal error: Interface 'Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ParameterBag\ParameterBagInterface' not found in C:\wamp\www\Symfony\Symfony\vendor\symfony\src\Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ParameterBag\ParameterBag.php on line 19" the moment I ran WAMPSERVER. The earlier version worked fine. Is this the right forum for this sort of thing? Please advise.

Weng said on Apr 27, 2011 at 21:06 #30

Please ignore thread #29. All sorted with PR12 release. All good now.
