################################################################################

The phpDocumentor team would like to announce the release of phpDocumentor

1.2.0 BETA 2.  This is a beta release and may have bugs and may have a different

structure from the final release.  This beta differs from 1.2.0Beta in that it

should work from pear install PhpDocumentor, and has a few bugs fixed and a few

extra features.

for PEAR users, the new --pear command-line switch will be a boon.  Leave it on

by default if your package follows PEAR coding and directory naming standards

IMPORTANT: phpDocumentor 1.2.0 BETA 2 requires PHP version 4.1.0 or greater.

phpDocumentor will function best with PHP version 4.3.0 or greater, as it will

use of the tokenizer extension if php 4.3.0 is installed for a tremendous

increase in parsing speed.

phpDocumentor is a JavaDoc-like automatic documentation generator for PHP

written in PHP.  It is the most versatile tool for documenting PHP.

Once again, phpDocumentor brings a great increase in usability with the 1.2

branch.  The addition of a tokenizer-based parser increases parsing speed by

up to 4 times (that's 400% faster) compared to previous versions.  In addition,

scalability has been improved, allowing generation of documents in multiple

output formats with one command.  The usage of config files makes repetitive

parsing tasks straightforward and reduces the chance for error.

The addition of DocBlock templates, extended documentation (tutorials) parsing,

and many other new features make this release the most useful automatic

documentor for any programming language.

The default HTML Converter has been ported to a new Smarty-based converter,

HTMLframesConverter, and all of the old templates have been ported to the new

Smarty-based format.  The HTMLdefaultConverter has been deprecated since its

functionality is redundant.  Due to the time it takes to convert a template to

the new format, the phpDocumentor team extends an offer to do this conversion

for anyone who has a brand new template.  We may also include the template in a

future release, if permission is granted.

Due to interest from PEAR programmers, there is a new beta-quality XML:DocBook

converter with peardoc2 templates.  This converter could also generate other

DocBook formats, if desired, but does not generate indexing for this release.

The PDF Converter has stepped up to beta-quality, is fully templatable, and

has most bugs completely fixed.  The CHM converter has also taken major strides

and is close to beta quality.

As predicted, the Smarty template engine is the primary template engine for

all converters.

For users new to phpDocumentor, phpDocumentor uses an event-driven parser

and intermediary data structures that allow it to perform at a level other

automatic documentors for PHP cannot achieve:

  --parsing any php file, with multiple classes and functions in the same file

  --fully compliant with even the most esoteric php syntax

  	($string = <<< EOF, for example)

  --ability to generate multiple output formats

  --extremely fast parsing

  --error/warnings by line number and file to allow for debugging of

	documentation tags

  --multiple output templates to easily customize the look of generated

	documentation

  --extensive documentation of the package, including a detailed specification

	for tags and the included template engine

  --open source, GPL

A full listing of all closed bugs and feature requests can be found in the

next section of the notes

phpDocumentor 1.2.0BETA2 is not ready for production use documenting any PHP

project, download it and try the most advanced solution for PHP documentation

today to help us find the last persistent bugs.  There are MANY in the new

XML DocBook Converter.  Please try it out and find them so we can begin to fix

them.
