Zend Framework 1.5.1 released
Less than ten days after the big 1.5 release there is already a new mini-release available which addresses over thirty issues.
One I’m particularly interested in, is the addition of an init() method to ZendForm which, as in ZendController_Action, is a convenience method called from __construct() allowing you to add your own initilization code more easily. Of course, on that note, my next task is to go and update the form code I’m currently working on!

I’m able to move up to this release finally
I had trouble with 1.5 as it broke previous functionality with passing an array through to the where statement in Zend_Db_Select. I found quite a passionate thread dating back to november on the mailing list regarding it which I didn’t notice first time around. Was very happy to see it was resolved in the nightlies and now in the stable release. I would shudder to think how long it would have taken me to track it down in all the places I used it!

It broke my heart that Simon was ready to merge that fix a few days before the 1.5.0 release, but we simply couldn’t introduce the risk of changing the code on the RC3 package at that time. I’m glad he got it in to 1.5.1. BTW, sorry it took a few extra days to get 1.5.1 out the door. We wanted to make some updates to the site, and our policy going forward will be to wait for mini releases before making significant updates to the site. This partially prevents the feeling of a constantly morphing information base in the community.

hey no problems. I hadn’t uploaded it to production yet so it only cost me a few hours of confusion on our dev server when I noticed the application wasn’t working as it had done previously. I can’t complain about anything in the framework really as its made my project a million times easier then without it

I have one question… Where are Zend_Build and Zend_Build for Core?..
