Version 3.4.0
-------------
Official release of Perl/CWB-Web on CPAN compatible with CWB v3.4 series.
TODO:
- write unit tests for CWB::Web:: modules (esp. CWB::Web::Cache)
- write extensive documentation for CWB::Web::Cache package
- reimplement CWB::Web::Cache with cache index in SQLite database (faster and safer)
- extend CWB::Web::FileCache for storage of arbitrary files indexed by metadata (as backend for CWB::Web::Cache)
- rewrite CWB::Web::Query module for better performance and easy CWB::CEQL integration
- re-think and re-implement CWB::Web::Search using MU-Queries and/or C code to achieve acceptable performance
Version 3.0
-----------
This is the first official release of the Web support modules for the redesigned CWB/Perl interface.
It is compatible with version 3.0 and above of the IMS Open Corpus Workbench.
New features:
- WebCqp:: namespace changed to CWB::Web::
- WebCqp::Persistent is now called CWB::Web::Cache, with updated documentation
- This is an early release, made in order to offer full CWB/Perl coverage together with the official
release 3.0 of the IMS Open Corpus Workbench. All CWB::Web:: modules are scheduled for (partial or full)
reimplementation, which may break backward compatibility. In particular, new CGI scripts should not
rely on the CWB::Web::Query and CWB::Web::Search modules. Keep in mind that the latter is extremely
inefficient in its current state and can only be used with very small corpora.
