Releases for Ext

Release notes

This is a dev release of a completely new version of the ext module for Ext JS 4.0. While this code probably provides some useful functionality, it is in a pre-alpha state and is likely to change substantially over the next few months. The README.txt file provides a thorough description of the APIs this module currently offers.

The current implementation provides:

• Loading of the Ext library and some basic settings.
• A hook-based API to allow other modules to specify Ext Model and Store definitions and code to support CRUD operations on them (although for Stores only the Retrieve operation is supported at the moment). There is also support for defining access/permission functions, and half the code required to allow server-side validation for Models (this isn't supported out of the box by Ext). Using the definitions JS files are generated that create the Model and Store classes in Ext on the client. The README.txt file details this API.
• A RESTful API for CRUD operations on Models and Retrieve operations on Stores. The Model and Store definitions in the generated JS files are automatically augmented with the appropriate Proxy definitions to communicate with the REST interface.
