Version 4.0.2

[caseysoftware]

This release was further cleanup on the 4.0.x line including:

Updates

• Installer work
  • refactored to simplify the dependency checks
  • validating the dotproject conversion paths for both the 2.0.x and 2.1.x lines
  • tested the upgrade path starting from versions 18, 35, 55, and 57 of w2p database
• Database changes
  • Fixed some missing fields
  • Fixed some database engine inconsistencies
  • Set default values for numerous fields, eliminated invalid defaults for datetimes
• UI
  • Cleaned up the welcome pages
• Unit Tests, using Copilot
  • Upgraded to the latest version of PHPUnit
  • Updated deprecated/eliminated PHPUnit asserts
  • Clean up all the tests and fix many errors and failures, not complete but should be ~15 in each vs 500+ tests overall
• Reworked the Search Module to allow you to selectively search other modules

Biggest Open Issues:

• The database layer - ADODB - is ancient and needs to be replaced. This is massive and touches every component.
• The date handling - PEAR Date - is ancient and needs to be updated to use Carbon. There is some odd error handling in the code to assist with this transition now.
