Myna 1.0 Alpha 15-1 Release Change Log
This is a BugFix release that also introduces some experimental features
New in this release
- Compiled script caching:
- Fixed a bug in script caching that was disabling it. Fixing this improves speed by about 10%. This also make selecting higher optimization levels more practical. Prior to this change optimization levels > -1 typically slowed down execution
- Modified caching algorithm. Now file and script caching are separated. This means that script fragments that are not associated with a path are cached. Furthermore, there is now a disk cache that prevents Myna from reading a script file unless it it has changes newer than the cached copy. This can dramatically improve performance when disk is slow and or experiencing high I/O load
- Added Myna.println() and Myna.printDump();
- Added static function Date.getInterval(). This is similar to Date.prototype.add(), but instead of returning a new Date instance, this returns the interval in milliseconds. This interval can later be passed to Date.prototype.add to do the actual date math.
- Added Myna.lock(name,timeout,func). This halts the current thread for up to timeout seconds until a named lock is available and then runs func. Calling release() on the returned lock allows the next thread to acquire a lock
- Added Myna.cacheOutput() This allows you cache fragments of your pages that don't change very often.
- Added Myna.cacheValue() This allows you cache function results that don't change very often.
- BugFix: schemas now better supported in Myna.Table and Myna.DataManager
