Installation

This extension does nothing all by itself. Connectors must be developed for specific third-party applications. However this extension must be installed since it provides the base class from which all connector services inherit.

Updating to 3.4.0

The sample configuration files have been changed to JSON format to easily allow for nested properties. If you have developed your own service and have defined a sample configuration file, you will need to change it to the new format. As always look at other existing connector services for examples (in particular, the “svconnector_json” extension which uses nested properties).

Also a new method was introduced as part of the Connector Sevice API: checkConfiguration() is expected to parse the connector configuration and return errors, warnings or notices as needed.
