Version 2.0.x

  • Easier programming: with unified API and only one main class, you don't have to remember where method you will use is located.

  • Standardized observer pattern: rather than used a specified and un-optimized listener with its limits, i've rewrote implementation and used now the PEAR::Event_Dispatcher package.

  • Multiple labels system: no more need to choose between display text percent progress or a custom free text zone. You have now ability to add unlimited number of labels around your progress meter.

  • Improved API error handling and plugin system: you can use any error system handler you might want. From standard PEAR_Error to PEAR_ErrorStack or anything else. It's up to you to choose.
