22 | |||
23 | = For Developers = | ||
24 | |||
25 | == DocumentReference Locale now taken into account in XWiki#exists and XWiki#getDocument == | ||
26 | |||
27 | You can now use ##XWiki#exist## method to check for some translation existence too, before that the only way was to either load the XWikiDocument or write your own XWQL or HQL query. | ||
28 | |||
29 | ##XWiki#getDocument## has been modified accordingly too to be consistent so you don't need to go through ##XWikiDocument#getTranslatedDocument## anymore. | ||
30 | |||
31 | It also mean that you need to be careful of what Locale is in the DocumentReference with those APIs now. | ||
32 | |||
33 | == XWiki Enterprise Archetype == | ||
34 | |||
35 | A new archetype is now available to easily create your own product based on XWiki Enterprise. To use: | ||
36 | |||
37 | {{code}} | ||
38 | mvn archetype:generate \ | ||
39 | -DarchetypeArtifactId=xwiki-enterprise-archetype \ | ||
40 | -DarchetypeGroupId=org.xwiki.enterprise \ | ||
41 | -DarchetypeVersion=5.3-milestone-1 | ||
