  7: This release brings a warning to the users when they are editing a page and other users are saving the same content. The Object editor has a new way of presenting XClasses meant to increase the user experience, while the top level application pages are not displayed anymore in Navigation Panel.

 57: == General Notes ==
 58: 
 59: * When upgrading make sure you compare and merge the following XWiki configuration files since some parameters may have been modified, removed or added:
 60: ** ##xwiki.cfg##
 61: ** ##xwiki.properties##
 62: ** ##web.xml##
 63: ** ##hibernate.cfg.xml##
 64: * Add ##xwiki.store.migration=1## in ##xwiki.cfg## so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to any new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.
 65: 
 66: == Issues specific to XWiki 11.2-rc-1 ==
 67: 
 68: === Event Stream Mapping ===
 69: 
 70: The Event Stream Store now declares its mapping automatically. You must thus not declare the event stream store mapping into the ##hibernate.cfg.xml## anymore. This means removing the following line:
 71: 
 72: {{code}}
 73: <mapping resource="eventstream.hbm.xml"/>
 74: {{/code}}
 75: 
 76: === Language Settings ===
 77: 
 78: The default value of the option [[{{code}}xwiki.language.forceSupported{{/code}}>>doc:Documentation.AdminGuide.Configuration.WebHome||anchor="HLanguagesettings"]] is now set to true.
 79: That means that only the supported languages defined in the Administration (section Content > Internationalization) will be used to display the wiki to our users.
 80: If you want to support the previous behaviour, you can edit the default value of the option in {{code}}xwiki.cfg{{/code}} by setting it to 0:
 81: 
 82: {{code}}
 83: #-# Force only one of the supported languages to be accepted. Default set to true.
 84: xwiki.language.forceSupported=0
 85: {{/code}}
 86: 
 87: == API Breakages ==
 88: 
 89: The following APIs were modified since 11.1:
