This minor release brings in some major performance enhancements for the way WireBox maps and creates objects. We highly encourage upgrading to it.
If you are using annotations for component aliases you will have to tell WireBox explicitly to process those mappings. As by default, we no longer process mappings on startup.
[WIREBOX-84] - Remove auto processing of all mappings defer to lazy loading
[WIREBOX-85] - MapDirectory new boolean argument process which defers to false, if true, the mappings will be auto processed
[WIREBOX-86] - New binder method: process() if chained from a mapping, it will process the mapping's metadata automatically.
[WIREBOX-87] - AOP debug logging as serialized CFCs which clogs log files
This release is part of the ColdBox 5.0.0 upgrade and it is a major release. Below you will find the major areas of improvement for WireBox and the full release notes.
We have done greats strides in consistency of error reporting during the creation of objects and their wiring. We have also added countermeasures for rogue mappings that could bring entire applications down. You will now get more consistency and better error reporting overall.
AOP now performs in over 70% faster than previous implementations. In previous versions, we would create intermediate class files that would then be loaded and injected as part of the AOP proxies. This took time and not only that, it would create 1 stub per call to a method implementation. Our strategy worked but lacked performance. In 5.0.0 we completely re-architected the way we did method injection and stub creation. We now take md5 hashes of the source code to be injected and only created the stubs 1 per-lifetime. The improvements are drastic and amazing. Enjoy AOP and don't hold back!
We have moved from an instance scope approach to a variables scope approach with accessors and mutators in 5.0.0 and yet again we benefit from CFML engine speed improvements. Again, thanks to the community for many pull requests.
We have completely re-engineered virtual inheritance in 5.0.0 and it behaves eerily similar to traditional inheritance at the dynamic level. Not only do we cover public methods like we used to, but also private methods and object state. You can also leverage AOP with virtual inheritance now which was a limitation in the previous version.
We have also added the capability to inherit implicit getters and setters from parent classes.
You now can register listeners on-demand with WireBox via the registerListener( listener ) method in the Injector.
onLoad(), onShutdown() Binder CallbacksAny WireBox binder can now have two new callback methods onLoad(), onShutdown(). The onLoad() is called once WireBox has loaded with logging, caching, and the configure() on the binder has been called. You can use this for leveraging mapDirectory() calls which require the entire event system to be online or any other type of execution that leverages the entire machinery to be online.
The onShutdown() callback is a nice way to shutdown services as you see fit.
The new WireBox Binder object is also an interceptor now. So you can create functions that listen to the entire DI/AOP process. Please see the events sections.
[WIREBOX-29] - Virtual inheritance breaks AOP on on base class methods.
[WIREBOX-52] - Virtual Inheritance doesn't inherit variables-scoped properties
[WIREBOX-63] - CFC's with same name don't get aliases picked up with mapDirectory()
[WIREBOX-64] - Illusive double id exception when race conditions
[WIREBOX-58] - Allow new listeners added to the Binder to also be registered right away, especially from modules
[WIREBOX-62] - New request context dsl injection -> coldbox:requestContext
[WIREBOX-67] - New coldbox dsl element => coldbox:router to retrieve the application's router object.
[WIREBOX-68] - Virtual Inheritance now copies over properties and private functions with generic accessors
[WIREBOX-69] - Module Injection Shortcut when the inject annotation is @moduleAdress
[WIREBOX-70] - Add a new onLoad() method interceptor for WireBox configuration binder
[WIREBOX-72] - Make the Binder also an interceptor
[WIREBOX-73] - Add a new onShutdown() method interceptor for WireBox configuration binder
[WIREBOX-28] - Improve errors while building depenencies
[WIREBOX-34] - Improve AOP binding by caching temp files
[WIREBOX-59] - Throw error on non-existent coldbox DSL
[WIREBOX-65] - Increase Wirebox performance by scoping variables
[WIREBOX-66] - Complete refactoring of wirebox scopes/DSL to script and direct scope usage
[WIREBOX-71] - Ability to cache metadata in CacheBox
WireBox 2.0.0 is a major release of our Dependency Injection and AOP library with some major fixes and some cool new updates.
You can find the release version information here: https://ortussolutions.atlassian.net/browse/WIREBOX/fixforversion/12300
Bugs
[WIREBOX-31] -Builder.buildDSLDependency does not use the custom DSL correctly as the default namespace kicks in
Improvements
[WIREBOX-32] -binder.mapDirectory now skips hidden dirs
[WIREBOX-35] -Remove coldbox:cacheManager DSL reference, it is no longer valid
New Features
[WIREBOX-2] -allow mapDSL to be altered at runtime by modules via new wirebox method: registerDSL()
[WIREBOX-30] -Support wiring new injection DSL = byType, which leverages the type to match to an implementation
[WIREBOX-33] -Add a force argument to the map functions so you can override if a mapping already exists
[WIREBOX-36] -New coldbox dsl to get a renderer reference: coldbox:renderer
The ColdBox injection DSL has had major updates to get to the ColdBox 4 standards.
All ocm injections have been removed in preference to
cachebox injection DSL
The coldbox:cachemanager DSL has been removed in preference to
cachebox injection DSL
All plugin injections have been deprecated in preference to
model/object injections
New coldbox:renderer dsl to inject the new ColdBox system
renderer
The map() function on the Configuration Binder now has a force argument which allows you to map no matter if the mapping exists or not already.
Injectors allow you to register custom DSLs at runtime by using the registerDSL() method on any injector. This feature was mostly done for modules, so they could enhance WireBox in a ColdBox context. However, this also allows you to leverage this in any non-ColdBox applications.
We have expanded our custom DSL and injectors to allow you to do injection by ColdFusion types. This feature is more in-line with features from Java or static languages were you can tell injectors to inject by argument or property type. Let's say you have a package of interfaces with subpackages of implementations:
You then want to rely on the interface type field of properties in my dependent CFCs and leveraging the byType injection DSL. You would first map the right implementation using the alias as the name of the Interface.

15% of the proceeds of this book will go to charity to support orphaned kids in El Salvador - . So please donate and purchase the printed version of this book, every book sold can help a child for almost 2 months.
Shalom now cares for over 80 children in El Salvador, from newborns to 18 years old. They receive shelter, clothing, food, medical care, education and life skills training in a Christian environment. The home is supported by a child sponsorship program.
We have personally supported Shalom for over 6 years now; it is a place of blessing for many children in El Salvador that either have no families or have been abandoned. This is good earth to seed and plant.

WireBox is an enterprise ColdFusion Dependency Injection and Aspect Oriented Programing (AOP) framework. This project has been part of ColdBox since its early version 2.0 releases but it is also a standalone library that can be used in ANY ColdFusion application or framework. WireBox's inspiration has been based on the idea of rapid workflows when building object oriented ColdFusion applications, programmatic configurations and simplicity. With that motivation we introduced dependency injection by annotations and conventions, which has been the core foundation of WireBox. We have definitely been influenced by great DI projects like Google Guice, Grails Framework, Spring and ColdSpring so we thank them for their contributions and inspiration

Breaking backward compatibility bumps the major (and resets the minor and patch)
New additions without breaking backward compatibility bumps the minor (and resets the patch)
Bug fixes and misc changes bumps the patch

Shalom Children’s Home () is one of the ministries that is dear to our hearts located in El Salvador. During the 12 year civil war that ended in 1990, many children were left orphaned or abandoned by parents who fled El Salvador. The Benners saw the need to help these children and received 13 children in 1982. Little by little, more children werecame on their own, churches and the government brought children to them for care, and the Shalom Children’s Home was founded.
