roncli.com blog: LibWowAPI 2.0

Well, it's been a long time since I've posted anything useful here, so let me introduce LibWowAPI, updated to version 2.0.

LibWowAPI's been behind Blizzard's WoW API for quite some time now, and between my last job and my re-found passion for gaming, I've not really had a lot of time to update it. Well, with Warlords of Draenor dropping this Thursday, and the fact that I sorely need to update my guild website, Six Minutes To Release (my next project!), I figured now was a good time to catch up.

For this release, I added an extensive Visual Studio test suite, which ensures that all of the of the classes are functioning properly before I go to do a release. Often times Blizzard will break things in the API, which requires me to make changes to avoid exceptions. It took me quite a bit of time to document all of the classes, but I really feel like a LibWowAPI release needs to be a quality product.

Blizzard most likely is going to make changes to their API in the coming weeks, and hopefully I can stay on top of them. However, with the number of projects I am giving priority to - the least of which is my 12-1/2-year old fail-design of a website... well, let's just hope Blizzard doesn't break anything serious.
