| 13 | == Flavors == | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | {{warning}} | ||
| 16 | This feature is experimental and not bundled in XWiki by default. However, you can install and try it, but only for test purpose. | ||
| 17 | {{/warning}} | ||
| 18 | |||
| 19 | In the future, XWiki will offer different Flavors. A Flavor is a collection of applications. When you install a Flavor, you get a wiki fully configured for a use-case. In this release, we have implemented the ability to chose a Flavor when you create a new wiki. | ||

| 24 | |||
| 25 | See the [[Flavor Module page>>extensions:Extension.Flavor Module]] to see how to test it. | ||
| 26 | |||
| 27 | == New debug mode == | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | It's now possible to display various information about what happen during the request like the time spent on each step and sub steps. | ||

| 31 | {{image reference="elapsedtimetree.png"/}} | ||
| 32 | |||
| 33 | == Miscellaneous == | ||
| 34 | |||
| 35 | * Mail API has been slightly modified to fix a bug when waiting for all mails to have been processed (the ##waitForProcessing()## wasn't really waiting!). As a consequence calls to ##MailResult.waitTillProcessed(long timeout)## and ##MailResult.isProcessed()## have been replaced by calls to ##MailStatusResult.waitTillProcessed(long timeout)## and ##MailStatusResult.isProcessed()##. Note that for backward compatibility reason the scripting API still supports the old API (but it's deprecated and you should move your code to use the new API). | ||
| 36 | |||
| 37 | * Mail Status Store API has been refactored to provides ordered result based on any status fields. A new method also ease loading a single status for a given messageId. | ||
| 38 | |||

| 41 | = For Developers = | ||
| 42 | |||
| 43 | == Mail API: Send prepared mime message to multiple users as independent message == | ||
| 44 | |||
| 45 | A new mime message cloning factory (hint "message") is available to be used with iterator factories. It duplicates a given source message as is, to allow sending it to multiple users as independent messages. See [[Example 5>>extensions:Extension.Mail Sender API||anchor="HExample5:SendapreparedmimemessagetoalistofUsersandGroups"]] of the documentation for a sample. | ||

| 55 | * [[Less4j 1.11.0>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12000]] | ||
| 56 | |||
| 57 | == Miscellaneous == | ||
| 58 | |||
| 59 | * The Mail module's prepare step now does a better handling of the ExecutionContext by cloning it. This way you can safely use it while rendering your mail's template, when you are using the velocity bindings. More details on [[XWIKI-12090>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12090]] | ||

| 84 | |||
| 85 | When upgrading make sure you compare your ##xwiki.cfg##, ##xwiki.properties## and ##web.xml## files with the newest version since some configuration parameters may have been modified or added. Note that you should add ##xwiki.store.migration=1## so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to the new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything. | ||
