	5	This is the release notes for [[XWiki Commons>>http://commons.xwiki.org]], [[XWiki Rendering>>http://rendering.xwiki.org]], [[XWiki Platform>>http://platform.xwiki.org]] and [[XWiki Enterprise>>http://enterprise.xwiki.org]]. They share the same release notes as they are released together and have the same version.

51.1	9	{{error}}
61.1	10	We've discovered a [[blocking issue after the release>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12315]]: if you use a distribution that doesn't provide the UI the Distribution Wizard will hang when trying to install the UI. We're analyzing the issue and will provide a fix quickly. Note that the issue only concerns the Distribution Wizard.

1.1	16
38.1	17	== Nested Documents ==
1.1	18
58.3	19	It's now possible to create wiki pages inside other wiki pages. More specifically we've decided to drop the concept of Space in the UI (it's still there at the API/platform level) and instead, to replace it with the concept of Nested Documents.
1.1	20
38.1	21	We've also decided to drop the concept of Parent/Child relationship since it was too complex for end users to have 2 hierarchies: the Space/Page hierarchy and the Parent/Child hierarchy. The Parent/Child hierarchy also had limitations: you could inherit page permissions for example. Thus the idea is to have a single hierarchy based on Nested Documents.
	22
59.1	23	Advantages of Nested Documents:
62.2	24
59.1	25	* The URL reflects the page hierarchy
	26	* Finer-grained control: Ability to set permissions at each level
	27	* Generally speaking, a nicer and simpler way to organize your content hierarchically
	28	* Moving and Deleting pages updates the hierarchy
	29
53.1	30	Terminology:
	31
58.5	32	* Nested Document (a.k.a Non-Terminal Document): This is a wiki page that can have children pages. Technically a Nested Document is implemented as a Space (i.e. a WebHome page).
58.3	33	* Non-Nested Document (a.k.a Terminal Document): This a wiki page that cannot have children pages. Applications and script can create Terminal Documents. Advanced Users will also be able to create Terminal Documents from the UI. Standard Users will only be able to create Nested Documents.
53.1	34	* Nested Space: A Space which has another Space as parent.
	35
38.1	36	Current status:
40.1	37
38.1	38	* In this milestone the UI has not been updated yet but a lot of the required changes have been done in the backend code to support Nested Documents.
	39	* What you can try today:
38.2	40	** Typing URLs with Nested Documents. For example typing {{{http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/A/B/C}}} and then clicking Edit will allow you to create a Page C inside pages A and B (which don't need to exist).
53.1	41	** Creating Nested Documents with "Add > Page" should also work even though the UI will be improved in the next version.
52.1	42	** Moving/Deleting Nested Documents work at the script level but not at the UI level yet, see below for examples you can try out.
53.1	43	** Importing/Exporting Nested Documents should work fine even though the UI will be improved in the next version.
54.1	44	** When you type a URL to a Nested Document (i.e. to a Space), you get redirected to the proper Document. For example typing {{{http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/A/B/C}}} will lead you to Document ##A.B.C.WebHome## (unless Document ##A.B.C## exists)
55.1	45	* The Parent/Child relationship is still used in this version and will be turned off in the next one (7.2M2)
	46
50.5	47	== Script right ==
	48
57.1	49	A new Script Right has been added to allow controlling who has the right to write Scripts. Specifically anyone with Edit rights can edit a page and write a Script in it. However, when the page is rendered the script will only execute if the last author of the page has the Script right.
50.5	50
57.1	51	In this version, The Edit right implies the Script right but in the next version (7.2M2) we'll change that so that by default the Script right is not granted to everyone having Edit right.
	52
65.1	53	{{image reference="scriptright.png"/}}
	54
	55	Example when the author of a script doesn't have the Script right:
	56
58.2	57	{{image reference="scriptRightsErrorNotAllowed.png"/}}
	58
1.1	59	== Miscellaneous ==
	60
58.4	61	* When a space home page has an empty title (and the space home page doesn't have a sheet or the sheet doesn't control the title) then the displayed title is now the space name instead of 'WebHome'.
49.6	62	* The list of available template providers is now sorted by document full name.
1.1	63
49.8	64	See the [[full list of JIRA issues>>http://jira.xwiki.org/sr/jira.issueviews:searchrequest-printable/temp/SearchRequest.html?jqlQuery=project+in+%28XCOMMONS%2C+XRENDERING%2C+XWIKI%2C+XE%29+and+status+%3D+Closed+and+resolution+%3D+Fixed+and+fixVersion+%3D+%227.2-milestone-1%22&tempMax=1000]] fixed in this release.

	67
31.1	68	== Nested Spaces ==
15.1	69
31.1	70	Since Nested Spaces were already planned and supported in APIs like ##DocumentReference## there are not too many changes for those who were using recent APIs but there is still some and here are the main ones.
15.1	71
47.2	72	=== Space Reference instead of Space name ===
15.1	73
47.2	74	The heart of the implementation is that the field that used to contain the unique document space now contain the possibly Nested Space Reference. In practice it means that:
15.1	75
31.1	76	* "##.##" (dot), "##:##" (colon) and "##\##" (baskslash) characters, which are part of a Space name will now be escaped (using the "##\##" character) in the ##space## (##XWD_WEB##) field from the Document's table in the Database. For example a space named ##Space:with.special\char## will be stored as ##{{{Space\:with\.special\\char}}}##.
47.2	77	* Same as for the database, the ##XWikiDocument/Document#getSpace()## methods now return a serialized Reference to the Space instead of what used to be the unique Space name (basically it return what's in the database). Same logic for ##XWikiDocument#setSpace()##. Those field have been deprecated a long time ago but they are still used in lots of places...
	78	* Various APIs are also affected by this Space name to Space Reference input change:
30.1	79	** ##XWiki#getSpaceDocsName## methods (both in the public and private XWiki API)
47.2	80	** All the default ##XWikiURLFactory## implementation methods accepting a Space as parameter have been modified to accept a serialized Space Reference. Extensions/code implementing ##XWikiURLFactory## (or extending classes implementing ##XWikiURLFactory## such as ##XWikiServletURLFactory##) will need to be modified to handle nested spaces passed in the ##space## parameter of the various APIs. Here's how to parse Spaces passed as a String:(((
31.1	81	{{code language="java"}}
	82	private EntityReferenceResolver<String> relativeEntityReferenceResolver =
	83	Utils.getComponent(EntityReferenceResolver.TYPE_STRING, "relative");
	84	...
	85	or
	86	...
	87	@Inject
	88	@Named("relative")
	89	private EntityReferenceResolver<String> relativeEntityReferenceResolver;
	90	...
	91	private List<String> extractSpaceNames(String spaces)
	92	{
	93	List<String> spaceNames = new ArrayList<>();
	94	// Parse the spaces list into Space References
	95	EntityReference spaceReference = this.relativeEntityReferenceResolver.resolve(spaces, EntityType.SPACE);
	96	for (EntityReference reference : spaceReference.getReversedReferenceChain()) {
	97	spaceNames.add(reference.getName());
	98	}
	99	return spaceNames;
	100	}
	101	{{/code}}
	102	)))
	103	** Extensions/code implementing ##ExportURLFactoryActionHandler## will also need to be modified to handle nested Spaces passed in the ##space## parameter.
31.2	104	* Extensions/code implementing ##EntityReferenceSerializer## or ##DocumentReferenceResolver## must now handle Nested Spaces (in the past they were already supposed to handle Nested Spaces but since it was not used they could take shortcuts and it wasn't visible. It's now going to fail, see [[XWIKI-12191>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12191]]).
15.1	105
16.1	106	=== Space separator properly taken into account ===
15.1	107
47.2	108	The Reference syntax specification was already indication that "##.##" was supposed to be escaped in the space part of the Reference but it was not really taken into account so not escaping it was not making any difference. This is now fixed in the various standard String Reference resolvers so a Reference that don't follow the specification and did not escaped the "##.##" in the space part will be cut is several nested spaces. Anything that was serialized with one of the standard serializers was properly escaped so not worry here, the issue will be more for hand written or hardcoded String References.
15.1	109
26.1	110	=== New XAR format ===
	111
	112	To support exporting/importing nested spaces some changes has been made to the XAR format. The format remain upward and downward compatible (except that you won't get nested spaces in your < 7.2 instance obviously).
	113
	114	Two new attributes has been added to the ##<xwikidoc>## root XML element
	115
47.2	116	* ##reference##: the complete local Reference of the document in standard Reference format. ##<web>## and ##<name>## are deprecated (but still set). ##<web>## keep containing the (unescaped) space name when there is only one space and will contain the space Reference when there is several (when imported in a < 7.2 instance a document exported from a nested space will end up in a space having as name the space reference).
	117	* ##locale##: the locale of the document. ##<language>## is deprecated. It was not technically needed in the context of nested spaces but it makes having the Reference as attribute more consistent. It also make getting all the entries from a new format XAR easier and faster since document space and name would be placed anywhere in the document.
26.1	118
43.1	119	=== REST module ===
44.1	120
48.1	121	* The REST module now supports Nested Spaces. Example of url to access the page ##A.B.C.MyPage##: ##/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/A/spaces/B/spaces/C/pages/MyPage##.
43.1	122
48.1	123	=== URL modules ===
	124
	125	The URL modules have been modified to support Nested Spaces. As a consequence the [[URL formats supported by the ##standard## URL scheme have been modified>>extensions:Extension.Standard URL API]].
	126
52.1	127	=== New Rename/Delete Jobs ===
	128
	129	New code has been developed to support Nested Documents/Nested Spaces and Script Services have been provided and they now run inside Jobs to better handle the fact that they are long-running operations. However the Rename/Delete feature in the UI do not yet call this new code (this is planned for 7.2M2 and after).
	130
	131	However you can start to test this by using the following Script Services APIs:
	132
	133	* Copy a Space(((
	134	{{code language="none"}}
	135	#set ($source = $services.model.resolveSpace('Path.To.Source'))
	136	#set ($destination = $services.model.resolveSpace('Path.To.New.Parent'))
	137	$services.refactoring.copy($source, $destination).join()
	138	{{/code}}
	139	)))
	140	* Copy a Space As(((
	141	{{code language="none"}}
	142	#set ($source = $services.model.resolveSpace('Path.To.Source'))
	143	#set ($destination = $services.model.resolveSpace('Path.To.New.Name'))
	144	$services.refactoring.copyAs($source, $destination).join()
	145	{{/code}}
	146	)))
	147	* Move a Space(((
	148	{{code language="none"}}
	149	#set ($source = $services.model.resolveSpace('Path.To.Source'))
	150	#set ($destination = $services.model.resolveSpace('Path.To.New.Parent'))
	151	$services.refactoring.move($source, $destination).join()
	152	{{/code}}
	153	)))
	154	* Move a Document(((
	155	{{code language="none"}}
	156	#set ($source = $services.model.resolveDocument('Path.To.Source.WebHome'))
	157	#set ($destination = $services.model.resolveSpace('Path.To.New.Parent'))
	158	$services.refactoring.move($source, $destination).join()
	159	{{/code}}
	160	)))
	161	* Rename a Space(((
	162	{{code language="none"}}
	163	#set ($source = $services.model.resolveSpace('Path.To.Source'))
	164	$services.refactoring.rename($source, 'NewName').join()
	165	{{/code}}
	166	)))
	167	* Rename a Document(((
	168	{{code language="none"}}
	169	#set ($source = $services.model.resolveDocument('Path.To.Source.WebHome'))
	170	$services.refactoring.rename($source, 'NewName').join()
	171	{{/code}}
	172	)))
	173	* Delete a Document(((
	174	{{code language="none"}}
	175	#set ($source = $services.model.resolveDocument('Path.To.Source.WebHome'))
	176	$services.refactoring.delete($source).join()
	177	{{/code}}
	178	)))
	179	* Delete a Space(((
	180	{{code language="none"}}
	181	#set ($source = $services.model.resolveSpace('Path.To.Source'))
	182	$services.refactoring.delete($source).join()
	183	{{/code}}
	184	)))
	185	* Convert a Terminal Document to a Nested Document(((
	186	{{code language="none"}}
	187	#set ($source = $services.model.resolveDocument('Path.To.Page'))
	188	$services.refactoring.convertToNestedDocument($source).join()
	189	{{/code}}
	190	)))
	191	* Convert a Nested Document to a Terminal Document(((
	192	{{code language="none"}}
	193	#set ($source = $services.model.resolveDocument('Path.To.Source.WebHome'))
	194	$services.refactoring.convertToTerminalDocument($source).join()
	195	{{/code}}
	196	)))
	197
62.2	198	=== New create action parameters and logic ===
	199
	200	The create action now accepts a ##spaceReference## parameter and a ##name## parameter, together with an optional ##tocreate=terminal## parameter (usable on non-terinal documents). The previous space parameters was not scalable in the context of Nested Spaces since it was just a top-level space name so it did not allow the creation of deeper space levels. More details are available in the [[create action's documentation>>platform:DevGuide.Standard URL Format\|\|anchor="HAction:create"]].
	201
63.2	202	These logic is now also available in the improved create UI, with the terminal pages option appearing only for advanced users and being checked or unchecked by default, depending on the type of the current document:
	203	{{image reference="createUINestedDocuments.png"/}}
	204
47.2	205	== New Reference-related APIs ==
1.1	206
47.2	207	Various new API around References has been introduced while adding support for nested spaces.
1.1	208
47.2	209	=== Complete References Providers ===
9.1	210
47.2	211	Complete References Providers (for DocumentReference, SpaceReference and WikiReference) with default or ##current## hints. They allow getting complete Reference created from each default or current part of those references (for example in SpaceReference you end up with the space of the XWikiContext document and the XWikiContext wiki)
9.1	212
6.1	213	{{code language="java"}}
	214	@Inject
	215	Provider<DocumentReference> defaultDocumentReference;
4.1	216
6.1	217	@Inject
	218	@Named("current")
	219	Provider<DocumentReference> currentDocumentReference;
	220	{{/code}}
9.1	221
	222	=== org.xwiki.model.reference.EntityReferenceProvider ===
	223
	224	##org.xwiki.model.reference.EntityReferenceProvider## replaces ##org.xwiki.model.reference.EntityReferenceValueProvider##. It's essentially the same thing but with ##EntityReference## instead of string which allow getting multiple spaces when you ask for the current ##EntityType.SPACE## for example.
	225
6.1	226	{{code language="java"}}
	227	@Inject
	228	EntityReferenceProvider provider;
	229	{{/code}}
	230
47.2	231	=== Properly support any kind of References in getDocument and getURL ===
9.1	232
47.2	233	##com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki#getDocument(EntityReference)## and ##com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki#getDocument(EntityReference)## support any kind of Reference properly (e.g. a Space Reference will return the space home page, an Object Reference will return the Object Document Reference, etc).
9.1	234
35.1	235	Same for ##com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki#getURL(EntityReference)## and ##com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki#getURL(EntityReference)##.
	236
9.1	237	=== New helpers in EntityReference ===
	238
47.2	239	* ##boolean equals(EntityReference otherReference, EntityType to)##: same as equals but only take into account Reference parts up to the passed entity type (included)
	240	* ##boolean equals(EntityReference otherReference, EntityType from, EntityType to)##: same as equals but only take into account Reference parts between passed entity types (included)
9.1	241	* ##boolean equalsNonRecursive(EntityReference otherReference)##: same as equals but does not take into account the parent
	242
27.1	243	=== New helpers in LocalDocumentReference ===
	244
47.2	245	* ##LocalDocumentReference(String pageName, EntityReference spaceReference)##: allowed created a LocalDocumentReference from a Space Reference instead of just the space name
27.1	246
34.1	247	=== org.xwiki.model.reference.SpaceReferenceResolver ===
	248
	249	New default ##String## and ##EntityReference## based SpaceReferenceResolver has been added. It's the same behavior then ##DocumentReferenceBehavior## but for spaces.
	250
	251	{{code language="java"}}
	252	@Inject
	253	SpaceReferenceResolver<String> stringResolver;
	254
	255	@Inject
	256	SpaceReferenceResolver<EntityReference> referenceResolver;
	257	{{/code}}
	258
23.1	259	=== New model Script Service helpers ===
22.1	260
47.2	261	* new help to escape an entity name according to default Reference syntax as in:(((
22.1	262	{{code language="velocity"}}
23.1	263	$services.model.escape('some.space:with\specialchars', 'SPACE')
22.1	264	{{/code}}
	265
	266	will print
	267
	268	{{code language="nonde"}}
	269	some\.space\:with\\specialchars
	270	{{/code}}
	271	)))
60.1	272	* you can retrieve a node from an ##EntityReferenceTree## using its reference:(((
	273	{{code language="velocity"}}
	274	#set ($alice = $services.model.resolveDocument('wiki:Users.Alice.WebHome'))
	275	#set ($bob = $services.model.resolveDocument('wiki:Users.Directory'))
	276	#set ($tree = $services.model.toTree($alice, $bob))
	277	#set ($usersNode = $tree.get($bob.lastSpaceReference))
	278	{{/code}}
	279	)))
22.1	280
41.1	281	=== New components to generate REST URLs ===
	282
	283	* The component ##RestURLGenerator## has been added. Its role, in the long terme, is to generate a REST URL for any kind of EntityReference. It currently handles ##DocumentReference## and ##SpaceReference##.
	284	* The corresponding script service has been added: ##$services.rest## with the method ##$services.rest.url($entityReference)##.
	285
62.1	286	=== Resolve nested spaces in JavaScript ===
	287
	288	{{code language="js"}}
	289	var spaceReference = XWiki.Model.resolve('A.B.C', XWiki.EntityType.SPACE);
	290	spaceReference.getReversedReferenceChain().map(function(entityReference) {
	291	return entityReference.name;
	292	}).join(' > ');
	293	// Produces: A > B > C
	294	{{/code}}
	295
	296	See the [[JavaScript API documentation>>platform:DevGuide.JavaScriptAPI\|\|anchor="HWorkwithEntityReferences"]] for more details.
	297
4.1	298	== New readonly XWikiContext provider ==
	299
	300	You can inject a new "readonly" XWikiContext the following way:
	301
	302	{{code language="java"}}
	303	@Inject
	304	@Named("readonly")
25.1	305	Provider<XWikiContext> roXWikiContextProvider;
4.1	306	{{/code}}
	307
11.2	308	The difference with default provider is that the readonly one won't try to create a new XWikiContext and will return null if it can't find any. It's been introduce for some low level components that were used during XWikiContext creation but in general it should be used by any component that only search for some XWikiContext property that might be null even in a valid XWikiContext.
4.1	309
1.1	310	== Upgrades ==
	311
	312	The following dependencies have been upgraded:
	313
	314	* [[httpclient 4.5>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XCOMMONS-815]]
2.1	315	* [[cssparser 0.9.16>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XCOMMONS-817]]
3.1	316	* [[less4j 1.12.0>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12161]]
8.1	317	* [[Joda-Time 2.8.1>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12159]]
16.1	318	* [[Bootstrap 3.3.5>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12211]]
24.1	319	* [[Infinispan 7.2.3>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12227]]
36.1	320	* [[HSQLDB 2.3.3>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XE-1491]]
37.1	321	* [[JGroups 3.6.4>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12215]]
40.1	322	* [[Jackson 2.5.4>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XCOMMONS-828]]
1.1	323
	324	== Miscellaneous ==
	325
25.2	326	* Objects, attachments and the document's class are now clearly not considered content, but metadata. Thus, any change in these will set the document's (XWikiDocument) metadataDirty flag to true and not touch the document's contentDirty flag unless there is an actual change in the document's content or title fields. This is also in line with the original intent of the contentAuthor document field. The direct impact of this is that the contentAuthor field will be updated only when the content is changed and thus the programming/script rights of a document will be changed much less often than before and much less by accident.
32.1	327	* custom Maven properties which have a special meaning (like ##xwiki.extension.features##) are not ##duplicated## in Extension custom properties anymore
33.1	328	* standard fields names have been added to ##org.xwiki.extension.rating.RatingExtension##
44.1	329	* URL configuration now use default ConfigurationSource provider instead of only ##xwiki.properties## one which means it's possible to overwrite properties for each wiki among other things
47.1	330	* Added ability to set and change the URL scheme to use in the Execution Context. This allows code to dynamically change the generated URLs when Rendering a document (useful when performing an Export for example).
46.2	331	* Started a new ##filesystem## URL Scheme for exporting Resources to the filesystem and generating URLs to them (useful for the HTML Export for example). At the moment, only the ##webjars## Resource Type is using it and all other Resource Types are using the old ##XWikiURLFactory## class.
49.3	332	* A new DocumentModelBridge.getContentAuthorReference() method has been added to allow accessing the content author of a document without depending on oldcore.
49.5	333	* Deprecate XWiki.parseContent(...) since it is was misleading and outdated. Its documentation mentioned that the passed content is parsed as velocity code, but it was actually doing much more than that and had some unwanted side-effect. Instead, use the parse/renderer that is specific to the type of content you have. See more details in [[XWIKI-12299>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12299]].

	358
	359	== General Notes ==
	360
	361	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.
	362
11.1	363	== Issues specific to XWiki 7.2M1 ==
1.1	364
15.1	365	=== Nested spaces ===
12.1	366
45.1	367	See [[previous Nested spaces section>>\|\|anchor="HNestedSpaces"]] for details on what changes in the way some API and the database are dealing with the Document Space.
12.1	368
49.2	369	Note that some existing Extensions are impacted and may break slightly: Extensions taking some user input and creating Spaces based on that will most likely display {{{"\."}}}, {{{"\:"}}} and {{{"\\"}}} in the UI. Unless they already clean the user input and remove ".", ":" and "\" characters. So for example if a user enter a Space name of "my.space":
49.3	370
49.1	371	* before 7.2M1: the Extension would create/display a Space named "my.space"
	372	* after 7.2M1: the Extension will create/display a Space named "my\.space"
	373
39.1	374	=== URLs ===
	375
	376	In order to support Nested Documents and have the ability that typing a URL such as ##/A## will lead to ##A.WebHome## we have stopped supporting URLs that don't specify the ##view## action (when ##xwiki.showviewaction=1##). Thus URLs such as ##/xwiki/bin/Something## now need to be written as ##/xwiki/bin/view/Something##. If ##xwiki.showviewaction=0## then you can still write ##/xwiki/bin/<something>## provided that ##<something>## isn't equal to ##view##. If it is (you have a space named ##view##) then you need to use ##/xwiki/bin/view/view[...]##.
	377
14.1	378	=== Templates ===
	379
	380	All the templates specific to [[extensions:Extension.Colibri Skin]] had been moved to it. If your skin depends on some of these templates, you should set Colibri as parent of your skin.
	381
1.1	382	== API Breakages ==
