CoreMedia Studio Changes and Improvements
The packages
(CMS-4549)com.coremedia.rest.intercept
,com.coremedia.rest.cap.intercept
,com.coremedia.rest.validation
andcom.coremedia.rest.cap.validation
and all respective subpackages have been moved from the modulecap-rest-service
to the modulescoremedia-rest-plugins
andcap-rest-plugins
. No classes have changed their package, but it might be necessary to update dependencies of modules containing custom interceptors and validators.Control Room: Content sets as logical containers for contents are replaced by fully-fledged projects. A project encompasses not only content items but also members, to-dos and due dates. For details, we refer to the Studio User Manual. There is no migration tool/path for transferring former content sets to projects.

Update
(CMS-4472)frontend-maven-plugin
to latest version 0.0.26,node.js
to 4.1.1 andnpm
to 3.3.4 in all blueprint themes.
Miscellaneous Changes and Improvements
In order to improve performance and unnecessary executions, bean customizers destroy themselves when done.
(CMS-4527)The cms catalog document types CMProduct and CMCategory featured the property metaDescription. Since it has the same meaning as htmlDescription, inherited from CMLinkable, we dropped metaDescription and use only htmlDescription. The ecommerce API remains unchanged. I.e. the getMetaDescription() methods are still supported, but they are backed by the htmlDescription property now.

Fixed Issues
CMS-4532: Collapsible Group with issue should be uncollapsed
Fixed auto expand of empty titles in collapsibles
CMS-4463: changed tomcat cache directory
The default directory for temporary files with tomcat has changed from
/var/tm/coremedia/
to/var/cache/coremedia
to prevent accidential removing cache files needed by CoreMedia applications.CMS-4458: Solr schema.xml changed to use autoGeneratePhraseQueries
The attribute
autoGeneratePhraseQueries="true"
was added to the field typetext_general
in the Solr schema.xml. This fixes a bug where searching for a word with a dash (e.g.tv-show
) returned documents that matched only parts of the query (e.g. just containedtv
).There's no need to reindex because this setting does not affect indexing but only query processing.
CMS-3637: Naming constraint for cache keys
The CacheKey name, defined by
com.coremedia.cache.CacheKey#cacheClass(Cache, T):String
, must not contain the reserved colon character ':'.
