* Fixed ticket #2528739 : Synchronous IO requests broken in IE

*** 3.1.0 ***

* Implemented enhancement 2528181. YUI io now supports synchronous transactions

for same-domain requests. To enable synchronous transactions, set the

configuration property "sync" to true; the default behavior is false. During a

synchronous request, all io events will fire, and response data are accessible

through the events. Response data are also returned by io, as an alternative.

For example:

/*

* var request = Y.io(uri, { sync: true });

*

* var request will contain the following fields, when the transaction is

* complete:

* - id

* - status

* - statusText

* - getResponseHeader()

* - getAllResponseHeaders()

* - responseText

* - responseXML

* - arguments

*/

When making synchronous requests:

- The transaction cannot be aborted,

- The transaction's progress cannot be monitored.

* Implemented enhancement 2528393. Arguments defined in the configuration

object are now passed to io global event handlers, as well.

* Implemented enhancement 2528313.

*** 3.0.0 ***

* Native cross-domain transactions are now supported in io-xdr. To specify an

XDR transaction, set the configuration object with the following properties:

- use: Specify either 'native' or 'flash' as the desired XDR transport.

- credentials: Set to true if cookies are to be sent with the request. Does not

work with XDomainRequest(e.g., IE8) or the Flash transport.

- datatType: Set to 'xml' if the response is an XML document.

For example:

var configuration.xdr = {

use: 'flash', //Required -- 'flash' or 'native'.

credentials: true, //Optional.

dataType: 'xml' //Optional.

}

The 'use' property is required. The others are optional or functionality-

specific.

When using the native transport, io will fallback to the Flash transport if the

browser is not capable of supporting the native mode. Make sure the resource

responds with the correct "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" header before attempting

a native XDR request.

* The sub-module 'datatype-xml' is now a dependency for io-xdr, to support XML

response data in XDR transactions.

* XDR transport initialization is simplified to one required value -- the path

to Flash transport. For example: Y.io.transport({ src:'io.swf' });

*** 3.0.0 beta 1 ***

* The io-queue sub-module now implements YUI Queue. The io queue interface

allows transaction callback handlers to be processed in the order the

transactions were sent, regardless of actual server response order. For

example:

- io queue is used to make three requests.

- The actual server response order happens to be: transaction 2, 1, 3.

- However, using the queue interface, the transaction callbacks are processed in

the order of: transaction 1, 2, 3.

* All transaction event flows now resolves to "success" or "failure"; the abort

event is removed. Transaction abort and timeout conditions resolve to

"failure", and is distinguishable in the response data. Specifically, the

response object's status and statusText properties will be populated as:

- response.status will be 0.

- response.statusText will be set to "timeout" or "abort" to differentiate the

two possible conditions.

* A new "end" event is introduced in the transaction event flow; this is the

terminal event for all transactions. Its event handler signature is the same as

the "start" event, receiving the transaction id and user-defined arguments.

- The global event name is "io:end".

- To subscribe to the transaction event, define the "end" property in the

transaction's configuration object. { on: { end: function() { } } }

*** 3.0.0 PR2 ***

* YUI io is now comprised of several modules, allowing users to specify and

implement only the needed modules. These modules are:

- io-base.js: This is the IO base class, using XMLHttpRequest as the transport.

- io-xdr.js: This sub-module extends IO to enable cross-domain transactions

using Flash as the transport.

- io-form.js: This sub-module extends IO to enable the serialization of an HTML

form as transaction data.

- io-upload-iframe.js: This sub-module extends IO, to allow file uploads with an

HTML form, using an iframe transport.

- io-queue.js: This sub-module extends IO to add transaction queuing

capabilities.

* [FIXED] SF2262707. If defined in the configuration object, user-specified,

HTTP "Content-Type" headers will correctly override POST default headers, for

HTTP POST transactions.

* XML is not supported as a response datatype when using sub-modules io-xdr.js

and io-upload-iframe.js.
