42 It's now possible to not parse velocity macro content for wiki syntax by using the wiki="false" parameter. For example:
43
44 {code}
45 {{velocity wiki="false"}}
46 #set($var = "**not bold**")
47 $var
48 {{/velocity}}
49 {code}
50
51 will render
52
53 {code}
54 **not bold**
55 {code}
56
57 1.1.1 New events for XWiki startup/shutdown

70 1.1 Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes
71
72 1.1.1 General Notes
73
74 #warning("If you're running in a multiwiki setup you'll also need to define the property <tt>xwiki.store.migration.databases=all</tt> to your <tt>xwiki.cfg</tt> file or explicitly name all databases to be migrated as in <tt>xwiki.store.migration.databases=db1,db2,...</tt>.")
75
76 You may also want to [import the default wiki XAR>Main.Download] in order to benefit from improvements listed above.
77
78 #warning("Always make sure you compare your <tt>xwiki.cfg</tt> file with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Of note, you should add <tt>xwiki.store.migration=1</tt> so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to the new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.")
79
80 1.1.1 Velocity macro cleaning
81
82 We changed the default filter for the Velcity macro. The new one only remove indentation white space and does not touch new lines or other white spaces anymore. The former one can still be used by putting
83 {code}{{velocity filter="html"}}{{/velocity}}{code}
84
85 1.1.1 API Breakages
86
87 The following APIs were modified since XWiki Enterprise 1.9:
88
89 * Rendering Module
90 ** <tt>Block.replace()</tt> has been replaced by <tt>Block.replaceChild()</tt>
91 ** <tt>ParseException</tt> constructor and methods have been modified since they were unused
92 ** <tt>XWikiXHTMLImageRenderer</tt> and <tt>XWikiXHTMLLinkRenderer</tt> classes have been moved to a XWiki-specific module so that the main Rendering module can be used standalone
93 ** Merged <tt>SimpleXHTMLImageRenderer</tt> and <tt>XWikiXHTMLImageRenderer</tt> into <tt>DefaultXHTMLImageRenderer</tt> which now handles the case where we're inside a wiki or not
94 ** Merged <tt>SimpleXHTMLLinkRenderer</tt> and <tt>XWikiXHTMLLinkRenderer</tt> into <tt>DefaultXHTMLLinkRenderer</tt> which now handles the case where we're inside a wiki or not
