Below are the key new features for WebSmart ILE 8.2 and WebSmart PHP 3.2
XML Functions (ILE)
|
WebSmart ILE now has XML functions that simplify XML document processing and parsing. These functions allow you to easily open an XML document, parse the document into a tree, retrieve elements and their children, get sets and subsets of elements, traverse the document tree, and more. The functions also handle all memory management behind the scenes, so you can focus on writing your application.
|
Updated SmartCharts (ILE and PHP)
| Included is a new version of SmartCharts which has a shaper, more modern look and additional functionality. They are fully compatible with the previous release of SmartCharts. The updated SmartCharts feature slick looking animated charts whose looks and additional properties can easily be customized by the data XML file.
|
Oracle PHP Templates
| WebSmart PHP now has templates for another popular database. Use the Oracle PHP templates to create sophisticated, business-ready programs over Oracle databases. These programs need to be hosted on a PHP-enabled server that supports access to Oracle databases.
|
Locally Scoped Variables (ILE)
| When the option 'Use locally scoped variables' is selected, work fields defined in functions other than Main() are considered local to that function. Locally scoped variables allow you to write more clear, precise and modular code.

New Simple PHP Template
| For use in applications that don't need to access a database.
