Version 1.0.9

A few hours ago, the release of the next, as always long-awaited, release of frame framework Yii version 1.0.9 was announced.

As always, briefly consider a few remarkable innovations.

• The CActiveRecord :: beforeFind method and the onBeforeFind event are added.
• Added CActiveRecord :: deleteAllByAttributes method for more convenient and flexible deletion.
• Increase the lazy loading speed by avoiding JOINs where it is possible.
• Allowed to use the slash character in the address suffix when strict parsing is enabled.
• Added property CApplication :: timeZone
• Improved AR fast by passing events if there are no listeners for these events.
• Added methods CLocale :: getMonthNames and CLocale :: getWeekDayNames , which return the names of the months and days of the week respectively. With that, they return in a different form: expanded, shortened and in the form of abbreviations.
• Added method CDbCriteria :: addCondition () , which allows you to add new conditions to existing ones.

Attention! Upgrading to version 1.0.9 is generally safe except for the fact that you need to pay attention to deferred loading (lazy loading) of related objects in ActiveRecord. Since the linked table is no longer connected by a JOIN to the main table, you should avoid references to the main table in the query description of the corresponding link.

References in the text lead to the appropriate places in the documentation.
