Let's take some examples to explain the change.
First, if you don't use any vendored bundles, this commit does not change anything.
So, let's say you use a FooBundle from Sensio. The files are stored under Bundle\Sensio\FooBundle.
And the Bundle class is Bundle\Sensio\FooBundle\SensioFooBundle.php.
Before the change, the bundle name ($bundle->getName()) would have returned 'FooBundle'.
Now it returns 'SensioFooBundle'.
Why does it matter? Well, it makes template names and controller names easier to read:
Before:
Template: Sensio\FooBundle:Bar:index.twig.html
Controller: Sensio\FooBundle:Bar:indexAction
After
Template: SensioFooBundle:Bar:index.twig.html
Controller: SensioFooBundle:Bar:indexAction
NB: Even if the change seems simple enough, the implementation is not. As finding
the namespace from the bundle class name is not trivial
NB2: If you don't follow the bundle name best practices, this will probably
leads to unexpected behaviors.
Before
bundle:section:template.format.renderer
After
bundle:section:template.renderer.format
Notice that both the renderer and the format are mandatory.
* better separation of concerns
* made TwigBundle independant of the PHP Engine from FrameworkBundle (WIP)
* removed one layer of abstraction in the Templating component (renderers)
* made it easier to create a new Engine for any templating library
* made engines lazy-loaded (PHP engine for instance is not started if you only use Twig)
* reduces memory footprint (if you only use one engine)
* reduces size of compiled classes.php cache file
The SecurityFactories expect security services to have a consistent naming convention, which was not the case for providers defined as `{ id: another.service }`. These providers will now be aliased as "security.authentication.provider.[key]" and can be accessed in the same manner as other providers.
Because that's just not possible (have a look at the unit tests to see all possibilities
-- as you will notice, there is no way we can determine the context and whether the
data are already escaped or not).
So, we always escape data, which means that sometimes, we will try to escape already
escaped data. This is not a problem for everything except strings. That's because
strings are not wrapped with an object like everything else (for performance reason).
This means that all escapers must be able to avoid double-escaping (that's the case
for the default escapers as both htmlspecialchars() and htmlentities() have a flag
that does just this).
Old notation: bundle:section:name.format:renderer (where both format and renderer are optional)
New notation: bundle:section:name.format.renderer (where only format is optional)
Valid new template names: Blog:Post:index.php, Blog:Post:index.xml.php
The new notation is more explicit and put all templating engines on the same level (there is no
more the concept of a "default" templating engine).
Even if the notation changed, the semantic has not. So, the logical template name for the above
examples is still 'index'. So, if you use a database loader for instance, the template
name is 'index' and everything else are options.
Upgrading current applications can be easily done by appending .php to each existing template
name reference (in both controllers and templates), and changing :twig to .twig for Twig templates
(for twig templates, you should also add .twig within templates themselves when referencing
another Twig templates).
