Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes

General Notes

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,....

You may also want to import the default wiki XAR in order to benefit from improvements listed above.

Always make sure you compare your xwiki.cfg file with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Of 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.

Velocity macro cleaning

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

{{velocity filter="html"}}{{/velocity}}

API Breakages

The following APIs were modified since XWiki Enterprise 1.9:

  • Rendering Module
    • Block.replace() has been replaced by Block.replaceChild()
    • ParseException constructor and methods have been modified since they were unused
    • XWikiXHTMLImageRenderer and XWikiXHTMLLinkRenderer classes have been moved to a XWiki-specific module so that the main Rendering module can be used standalone
    • Merged SimpleXHTMLImageRenderer and XWikiXHTMLImageRenderer into DefaultXHTMLImageRenderer which now handles the case where we're inside a wiki or not
    • Merged SimpleXHTMLLinkRenderer and XWikiXHTMLLinkRenderer into DefaultXHTMLLinkRenderer which now handles the case where we're inside a wiki or not
