CMF 2.1.0 (2007/08/08)

New Features

  • PortalFolder: Enabled Components ZMI tab. This GenericSetup tab allows to inspect and edit component registrations.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed all componentregistry.xml files to use plain object paths and strip and slashes. GenericSetup does only support registering objects which are in the site root.
  • Allow email addresses with all-numeric domain names. The RFCs do not support them but they do exist. (http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/6773)

CMF 2.1.0-beta2 (2007/07/12)

New Features

  • CMFCore.exportimport.skins: Added the ability to remove whole skin selections using a GS profile. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/479)
  • Workflow definition instances now have a description field (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/480)

Bug Fixes

  • UndoTool: Fixed listUndoableTransactionsFor. The required object argument is now respected. This doesn't change the behavior as long as object is the site root object.
  • CMFCore.TypesTool: Corrected method signature of all_meta_types to have an interface keyword argument, as per the underlying OFS.ObjectManager interface declaration.
  • SkinnableObjectManager: Changed the way skins are set up. Acquisition wrapping no longer triggers setupCurrentSkin. This is now done on publishing traversal after the BeforeTraverseEvent triggers setSite. This fix replaces a temporary hack introduced in 2.1.0-beta, making sure ISkinsTool is looked up after setting the site.
  • CMFCore.CMFBTreeFolder: CMFBTreeFolders could not be used as the toplevel /Members container. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/441)
  • Pass object through to TypeInformation objects' listActions. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/482)
  • Removed extraneous "Cache" tab from FS-based skin objects. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/343)
  • CMFCore.WorkflowTool: Using the (Default) keyword for a type's workflow chain will now reset any custom workflow chains for the type. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/475)
  • Use the property API to get the member specific skin, because direct attribute access won't work with PAS based membership. (http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/5904)
  • Add POST-only protections to security critical methods. http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-0240)
  • Allow customization from DirectoryViews to be redirected into alternate folders, and use manually-built clones. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/382)
  • Use a utility, registered for Products.CMFDefault.interfaces.IHTMLScrubber, to perform scrubbing of HTML; fall back to the old, hard-wired behavior. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/452)
  • Remove antique usage of marker attributes in favor of interfaces, leaving BBB behind for places potentially affecting third-party code. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/440)
  • Fixed DST-driven test breakage in CMFCalendar by adding an optional zone argument to the DublineCore methods which return string rednitions of date metadata. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/476)
  • Favorite: Fixed UID handling broken in 2.1.0-beta.
  • CMFDefault: Removed CMFUid dependency inadvertently added in 2.1.0-beta.
  • CMFActionIcons: Fixed interface declarations added in 2.1.0-beta.

Other

  • The CMF now depends on Zope 2.10.4 or higher.
  • CMFDefault: Adjusted factory.py to new GenericSetup version.
  • CMFUid.UniqueIdAnnotationTool: Annotation handling has been switched from triggering it through old-style manage_*-methods to using events. UID assigning behavior has been made more flexible. Please review CMFUid/README.txt for information about the current behavior and the new features. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/474)

CMF 2.1.0-beta (2007/03/09)

IMPORTANT NOTE:

If you upgrade an existing CMF instance to CMF 2.1, please see INSTALL.txt for instructions on how to run a separate upgrade script.

New Features

  • CMFCalendar: Zope3 style browser views are now used by default. An additional setup profile allows you to hook up the oldstyle skins and to make customizations TTW.
  • DirectoryView: Added registerDirectory ZCML directive. Using the old registerDirectory method in __init__.py is now deprecated. See zcml.IRegisterDirectoryDirective for details.
  • DirectoryView: Added support for non-product packages. This introduces new registry keys. Old registry keys stored in persistent DirectoryView objects are updated on the fly. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/467)
  • Document: Added two new methods for safety belt handling.
  • setup handlers: Improved properties handler. It now works with properties using a default_charset other than UTF-8.
  • Merged patches from Martin Aspeli to enable generating events before and after DCWorkflow transitions, and in the notify methods of the workflow tool (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/461).

Bug Fixes

  • CMFUid.UniqueIdHandlerTool: Touching the internal UID value on a content item will not cause reindexing all indices anymore, only the specific UID index will be touched. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/469)
  • CMFCore.MembershipTool: Fixed inconsistent behavior where member lookup would take all user folders up to the Zope root into account whereas member area creation would not.
  • CMFCore.MembershipTool/CMFDefault.MembershipTool: when using an object without a __nonzero__ but with a __len__ (ala CMFBTreeFolder) as a member folder, the createMemberArea method would believe there was no members folder if the folder was empty, and so would fail (change "not membersfolder" to "membersfolder is not None") .
  • CMFDefault.File and CMFDefault.Image: Restored ZMI Cache tab which was lost in CMF 1.6.
  • CMFCore.DynamicType: Fixed behaviour regarding default view. DynamicType was making it impossible to use a Zope3-style default view for CMF content types. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/459)

Others

  • Tool lookup and registration is now done "the Zope 3 way" as utilities. Please see docs/ToolsAreUtilities.txt for some developer notes.
  • CMFCore utils: Marked minimalpath and expandpath as deprecated.
  • The CMF now depends on Zope 2.10.2 or higher.

CMF 2.1.0-alpha2 (2006/11/23)

New Features

  • WorkflowTool: Added the IConfigurableWorkflowTool interface. This change includes the new getDefaultChain and listChainOverrides methods and an improved setChainForPortalTypes method. The import handler now supports the remove attribute for removing overrides. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/457)
  • CMFCore.CachingPolicyManager: Implemented the old OFS.Cache.CacheManager API. Now objects other than CMF content or CMF templates can have their caching headers set by the caching policy manager with the same fine-grained control. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/408)
  • testing: Added test layers for setting up ZCML.
  • CMFDefault formlib: Added zope.formlib support. This includes some CMF specific base classes and an EmailLine field.
  • browser views: Added some zope.formlib based forms.
  • CMFDefault utils: Added checkEmailAddress function.
  • Added CMFCore.FSRestMethod: ReST equivalent of FSSTXMethod.
  • CMFCore.FSSTXMethod: Modernized, added tests, made customization possible (now renders via ZPT by default, using main_template).
  • Portal: Added email_charset property.
  • CMFDefault utils: Added makeEmail function.
  • CMFDefault.Image and CMFDefault.File: Overridden index_html methods add Cache Policy Manager-awareness and thus bring these implementations in line with CMFCore.FSFile and CMFCore.FSImage (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/454)

Bug Fixes

  • CMFCore.CachingPolicyManager: Prevent firing of caching policies for templates (DTML or ZPT) that are rendered in-line (without a separate request) while rendering the requested content item's view. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/456)
  • CMFDefault RegistrationTool: Fixed too restrictive email checking. The new checkEmailAddress function is now used.
  • Fixed test breakage induced by use of Z3 pagetemplates in Zope 2.10+.
  • CMFDefault skins: Fixed encoding issues in welcome and reminder emails. password_email and registered_email now encode their return value correctly, using email_charset and the new makeEmail function.

Others

  • The CMF now depends on Zope 2.10.1

CMF 2.1.0-alpha (2006/10/09)

New Features

  • CMFDefault utils: Added getBrowserCharset function. Returns the charset preferred by the browser. Strings encoded with this charset are decoded correctly by Five.browser.decode.processInputs.
  • Content: Added IFactory utilities for all content classes. They are now used by default instead of the old constructor methods.
  • FactoryTypeInformation: Added support for Zope3 style factories. If the product property of a type info instance is empty the factory property is interpreted as an IFactory name.

Bug Fixes

  • CMFCore.ActionInformation: don't use a fixed set of properties for ActionInformation. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/232/)
  • CMFCore.CatalogTool: Use current executable's proxy roles, if any, in place of user's roles when computing allowedRolesAndUsers for a query. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/380)

Others

  • skins: Changed encoding of translated portal_status_messages. Now getBrowserCharset is used to play nice with Five forms. Customized setRedirect and getMainGlobals scripts have to be updated.
  • FSFile: Added registration for txt extension.
  • Profiles: All profiles are now registered by ZCML.
  • ZClasses: Removed unmaintained support for ZClasses. Marked the initializeBases* methods as deprecated.
  • Content: All content classes are now registered by ZCML. ContentInit is still used to register oldstyle constructors.
  • Favorite: Added handleFavoriteAddedEvent subscriber. This replaces the manage_afterAdd hook and some code in addFavorite.
  • CMFCatalogAware: Added handleObjectEvent subscriber. This replaces the deprecated manage_afterAdd, manage_afterClone and manage_beforeDelete hooks.
  • setup handlers: Removed support for CMF 1.5 CMFSetup profiles.

CMF 2.0.x and earlier

If you can read this text, it means you are not experiencing the Plone design at its best. Plone makes heavy use of CSS, which means it is accessible to any internet browser, but the design needs a standards-compliant browser to look like we intended it. Just so you know ;)
