| 43 | = Test Report = | ||

| 46 | |||
| 47 | = Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes = | ||
| 48 | |||
| 49 | == Java 1.6 == | ||
| 50 | XWiki Enterprise 3.1 Milestone 2 and all subsequent versions will be compiled with Java6, Java5 is no longer supported. | ||
| 51 | |||
| 52 | == Deprecated XClass database tables removed == | ||
| 53 | In [[XWIKI-6624>>http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-6624]] a set of database tables and their supporting infrastructure were removed. These tables held XWiki Class information but since XWiki 1.0, the table method of storage has been deprecated and non-default. If upgrading from a pre-1.0 version of XWiki, it is important to make sure you are using the XML XWiki class storage and not the database tables first. | ||
| 54 | |||
| 55 | == WYSIWYG Editor Configuration == | ||
| 56 | |||
| 57 | In order to implement [[XWIKI-6618>>http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-6618]] we changed the format of the menu bar configuration. If you exclude the ##XWiki.WysiwygEditorConfig## page when you upgrade your wiki pages (which you should do in order to preserve your WYSIWYG editor configuration) then you have to: | ||
| 58 | 1. edit the ##XWiki.WysiwygEditorConfig## page with the object editor | ||
| 59 | 1. remove deprecated properties (you have to do this because we changed the type of the //Menu Bar// property to accommodate the new format) | ||
| 60 | 1. change the value of the //Menu Bar// property to use the following JSON format: | ||
| 61 | {{code}} | ||
| 62 | [{ | ||
| 63 | "feature" : "link", | ||
| 64 | "subMenu" : ["linkEdit", "linkRemove", "linkWikiPage", "linkAttachment", "|", "linkWebPage", "linkEmail"] | ||
| 65 | }, | ||
| 66 | { | ||
| 67 | "feature" : "image", | ||
| 68 | "subMenu" : ["imageInsertAttached", "imageInsertURL", "imageEdit", "imageRemove"] | ||
| 69 | }, | ||
| 70 | { | ||
| 71 | "feature" : "table", | ||
| 72 | "subMenu" : ["inserttable", "insertcolbefore", "insertcolafter", "deletecol", "|", "insertrowbefore", "insertrowafter", "deleterow", "|", "deletetable"] | ||
| 73 | }, | ||
| 74 | { | ||
| 75 | "feature" : "macro", | ||
| 76 | "subMenu" : ["macroInsert", "macroEdit", "|", "macroRefresh", "|", "macroCollapse", "macroExpand"] | ||
| 77 | }, | ||
| 78 | { | ||
| 79 | "feature" : "import", | ||
| 80 | "subMenu" : ["importOffice"] | ||
| 81 | }] | ||
| 82 | {{/code}} | ||
| 83 | |||
| 84 | == General Notes == | ||
| 85 | |||
| 86 | {{warning}} | ||
| 87 | If you're running in a multiwiki setup you'll also need to define the property //xwiki.store.migration.databases=all// to your //xwiki.cfg// file or explicitly name all databases to be migrated as in //xwiki.store.migration.databases=db1,db2,...//. | ||
| 88 | {{/warning}} | ||
| 89 | |||
| 90 | You may also want to [[import the default wiki XAR>>Main.Download]] in order to benefit from the improvements listed above. | ||
| 91 | |||
| 92 | {{warning}} | ||
| 93 | Always make sure you compare your //xwiki.cfg// file with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Note 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. | ||
| 94 | {{/warning}} | ||
| 95 | |||
| 96 | == API Breakages == | ||
| 97 | |||
| 98 | No APIs were modified since XWiki Enterprise 3.0. |
