6 1 Release Notes for XWiki Enterprise 1.7
7
8 1.1 Changes since XWiki Enterprise 1.6
9
10 1.1.1 1. New Rendering improvements
11
12 * XWiki Syntax 2.0 improvements:
13 ** *Allow wiki syntax inside links*. Example of an image link: {code:none}[[image:Space.Page@my.png>>reference]]{code}
14 ** *New syntax for tables*. Example: {code:none}|= row1 |= row2
15 | cell1 | cell2
16 {code}
17 ** *Images can be defined as URLs*. Example: {code:none}image:http://xwiki.org/some/path/my.png{code}

19 #info("You'll find information on how to enter content using the new syntaxes in the [Page Editing Guide>platform:Features.PageEditing].")
20
21 * New Macros:
22 ** *[Code macro>code:Macros.CodeMacro20]* (experimental). Allows to perform syntax highlighting of the content. Only supports HTML, XML and PHP for the moment. Example: {code}
23 {{code language="xml"}}
24 <hello>
25 <world>Cool!</world>
26 </hello>
27 {{/code}}
28 {code}
29 ** *[Script macro>code:Macros.ScriptMacro]*. The new script macros add the ability to use any scripting language supporting JSR-223. For now the default XWiki distribution comes with only a Groovy 1.6 support but it easy to add support for other language (like ruby, python, etc.) simply by adding the corresponding engine and implementation. See https://scripting.dev.java.net/.\\\\To use the new script macro: {code}
30 {{script language="groovy"}}
31 println "Hello World"
32 {{/script}}
33 {code} or you can also use the Groovy macro alias: {code}
34 {{groovy}}
35 println "Hello World"
36 {{/groovy}}
37 {code}
38 ** *[Box macro>code:Macros.BoxMacro]*. This macro allow to put content in a visual container. Example: {code}
39 {{box}}
40 ==some==
41 * wiki
42 * content
43 {{/box}}
44 {code}
45
46 1.1.1 2. New WYSIWYG editor improvements
47
48 * Link feature implemented (link to wiki page, web page, email).
49 * Lots of bug fixes.

Please look at the [new WYSIWYG Design page>dev:Design.NewWysiwygEditorInterface] to see what it'll look like (except for the colors which will be different). To start using the new editor, check out the [Page Editing Guide>platform:Features.PageEditing]. Again this is work in progress but we'd like *as much feedback as possible*. Please raise any issue you find in [JIRA>http://jira.xwiki.org].") <img style="border: 1px solid #000;" src="/xwiki/bin/download/Main/ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise17M1/wysiwyg.png" /><br />

Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.")
