Sory, I was wrong about 1.6 not using JForms - www.ostraining.com/howtojoomla/how-tos/d...g-started-with-jform

In any case, you could still try my suggestion to see if that fixes it!

You are right.
I must check it out and return a step back for JInput.

Very good catch !

I switched late to JInput and didn't made new test since. So complicated to check everything.

I just told today and confirmed it was compatible.
A little bit of work, because it can be good to handle both, with an option.

Do you know how to replace them manually ? There are not a lot, but multiplicated by the number of tables you have, it can be a lot.

Is it urgent ?

Hello @admin, yes, just because it was urgent and could not wait, I decided to update joomla, even if I had to replace all the components that were not compatible with joomla 2.5, but in the end it seems that I have succeeded, thanks anyway! :)

Wouldn't the JVersion and the switch/if eval work for swapping from JRequest to JInput?

It seems that would be the most ideal way of handling it whilst it is not handled in the cook core, right?

No, because JRequest is deprecated, so it is not a good Idea.

What I am going to do is to create an abstract helper when component is asked to be build in legacy (cross versions), if not, JInput will be used.

The helper will be called through a static call (one line) and will execute JRequest or JInput, depending on the version.

The way to get the version look complicated.
I usually do :
if (version_compare(JVERSION, '2.5', '>='))
{
...
}

I do not understand why this complex and long code, must read attentively.

Sure, what I was suggesting was a fix for the time being however, isn't:
jimport('joomla.version');
$version = new JVersion();
if (!$version) {
        //Catch instances where version is not available
	echo "No JVersion";
} else {
	// Print the object to see all elements of obj
	echo "<pre>"; print_r($version); echo "</pre>";

	// Now, here is where you'll need to switch cases or use IF/ELSE Eval
}
essentially what you'll have to do in a helper function?

I have to admit, I don't know about JVERSION constant... I only found Jversion object and threw together a quick suggestion of how it could be implemented for the $input issue...

See, we learn something new everyday... JVERSION constant = my new thing to learn today! ;)

Thanks @admin,

This last week, I've been working on cross compatibilities.

1.6, 1.7 is now supported for me (in local), but I am doing lot of tests because a lot of files has changed.
Everywhere JInput is called.

Joomla 3.0 is on the way...

Note JVERSION is not a good tip because it is now deprecated.
In general, Joomla is triyng to deprecate all static calls.
I will continue to work wih static call (so usefull), but the native framework STATIC classes seems to disapears little by little. Wich is very good.

By the way, to avoid statics calls, I would need a 'component' class object, doing the same that 'application' object. Let see in future.

So :
Wait a little bit, but prepare yourself to a general upgrade of your component (for 1.6, 1.7)
For other users, it do not change anything, you can continue to use your files mixed with new JInput rewrite.

JInput is compatible in 1.6 and 1.7.
simply that you must load it manualy.

Look, Cook do now handle it for 1.6, 1.7 in 2.0 beta.

J! 1.0, and 1.5 are dead.

[FIXED] Error on JFactory::getApplication()->input;

For starters it's just so easy to design an app in a way that I'm used to i.e. database first then views followed by customization. The fork system is pure brilliance from a developer standpoint as I can override things and still add and update my projects with minimal effort! Truly amazing to be able to build components in Joomla using incremental refinement without having to do everything by hand. Thanks for the great tool! I am so much more productive now than ever and I can't imagine building components any other way!!!!
