- The GetText servlet has been deleted. If you are using a modified web.xml file then be sure to remove any references to the GetText servlet.
- From now on the 3.0 servlet API is supported only. To enable this the dependencies to the related artifacts need to be changed in custom poms that refer to these artifacts:
javax.servlet:servlet-apiandjavax.servlet:jsp-api. The
web.xmldeployment descriptor header should be changed to the 3.0 format:Code Block theme Eclipse <web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd"version="3.0"> </web-app>
Maven 3.X does not support file URLs like "file:./maven-repository" in the settings.xml anymore, therefore the "localRepository" setting must be a real file path from now on and this should be updated in your custom Maven settings if needed. An absolute path is preferred for referring to the same repository (for example in subprojects) because the settings are relative to the current project directory (see https://maven.apache.org/plugin-developers/common-bugs.html#Resolving_Relative_Paths).
Maven 3.X discourages using expressions for the groupId, artifactId and version settings in POMs and other descriptors. These have been replaced by constant values and, as a result, the webmanager.project.groupId, webmanager.project.artifactId and webmanager.project.version settings from the settings.xml no longer serve a purpose and thus have been removed from the settings.xml. As a result of this it may be necessary to update the values of your project specific webmanager.staticbasedir, webmanager.backendbasedir and webmanager.cleansitelocation settings.
Because the Maven plugin for OSGI bundles has been replaced in Maven 3.X, the following adjustments are needed in the
pom.xmlof custom plugins.
PACKAGING:Maven 2:<project ...><packaging>osgi-bundle</packaging>...Replacement in Maven 3:<project ...><packaging>bundle</packaging>
...
MAVEN OSGI PLUGIN: Note especially that the <explicitImportPackage> tag is not needed any more.
Previously this tag was used to make exported local packages available within the plugin code.

This information is checked at runtime in order to ensure that an accepted version of the referred plugin is installed on the system, otherwise the plugin will fail to start. The default runtime version requirements are sensible, but when dealing with 3rd party components you might need to overrule these default requirements. This can be done as follows to allow v1.x.x - v5.x.x:
<Import-Package>com.gxwebmanager.tests.testservice.*;version="[1,6)",*</Import-Package>.

XperienCentral 10.7.1
- GX WebManager XperienCentral 10.7.1 provides an oEmbed service to embed XC content in external oEmbed consumers. The presentation of this content is provided by some XC presentation files. An example implementation can be found in the wmpcommunityeditionstyle WCB (provided in the edition-bundles directory of the XC release) that contains presentations with the following names: "WM page embed", "WM page embed ssi", "WM contentpart embedded" that are used to render the oEmbed presentation. "WM content" and "WM databasepage" are invoked but not modified.
...
XperienCentral 10.7.0
...
- The manner in which the active version of a form or form section is determined has been
...
- changed. It no longer makes use of a predefined set of states, but uses the
...
- XperienCentral Workflow functionality instead. As a result of this the getActiveVersion and setActiveVersion
...
- methods on the Form and FormSection class have been deprecated. The getActiveVersion method now
...
- invokes the newly introduced getCurrent method to determine which version is returned as
...
- the "active" version. The setActiveVersion no longer executes any logic at all.
...
- The behavior of the Session#getWrapper method has been altered when retrieving Content Items
...
- (instances of MediaItem). Previously this method would return an object even if none could be
...
- found for the requested identifier while now it will return null in this situation.
...
...
- 10.7.0 introduces support for Workflow in Interactive Forms. In order for this to work
...
- properly, WebManager sets up a new Workflow Repository Model called "Interactive Forms Workflow".
...
- You may want to review whether the permissions assigned to each activity suit your needs. You can
...
- find Workflow Repository Model configuration in the "Workflow" menu. The following permissions
...
- have been introduced in WebManager 10.7.0:
...
- Copy forms
...
- Create forms
- Create versions of forms
- Delete Forms
...
- , create forms, create versions of forms, delete forms and edit forms.
...
XperienCentral 10.5.0
- The model in order to store personalizations has been refactored. As a result, export files created using the content export functionality in the setup tool of older GX WebManager older XperienCentral versions containing personalizations or references to personalizations cannot be imported on WebManager XperienCentral 10.5.0 and vice versa.
...
XperienCentral 10.4.1
...
- In 10.4.1 the logic which adds anchors and back to top links to elements has been moved from the
...
content.jspf, which loops over and renders all elements, to two separate presentation
...
- JSPs, one
...
- with scope ElementAnchor, which prepends the anchors to an element if applicable and one with
...
- scope ElementBackToTop, which adds the back to top links to an element if applicable.
...
- All element related logic should be removed from your project specific presentation
...
- JSPs which
...
- currently loop over and render the elements, like the
content.jspfin the webmanager-cestyle-wcb
...
- and add two new presentation
...
- JSPs based on the elementAnchor.jspf and
elementBackToTop.jspfin
...
- the webmanager-cestyle-wcb.
...
XperienCentral 10.4.0
...
In 10.4.0 all default database connections are merged to one database connection named WebManagerDb
...
which by default is accessed through JNDI lookups. Therefore it is necessary that before
...
deploying the application the WebManagerDb datasource is configured to be available on the application server.
...
For Apache Tomcat edit the server.xml and add this resource to the context of the backend webapp:
...
Code Block theme Eclipse Resource name="jdbc/WebManagerDb" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
...
username="${webmanager.externaldb.dbuser}" password="${webmanager.externaldb.dbpassword}"
...
driverClassName="${webmanager.externaldb.dbdriver}" url="${webmanager.externaldb.dburl}"
...
maxActive="100" maxIdle="10" maxWait="10000" testWhileIdle="true"
...
timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis="900000" removeAbandoned="true" removeAbandonedTimeout="30"
...
logAbandoned="true" validationQuery="${webmanager.externaldb.validationquery}"/
...
>>
...
Note that you still have to fill in the correct values for the username, password, driverClassName,
...
URL and validationQuery attributes. Examples of these can be found in the settings.xml.
...
For Jboss edit the standalone.xml and add this datasource to datasources subsystem:Code Block
...
theme Eclipse
...
<datasource jndi-name="java:jboss/jdbc/WebManagerDb" pool-name="WebManagerDb" enabled="true"
...
use-java-context="true">
...
<connection-url>${webmanager.externaldb.dburl}</connection-url>
...
<driver>${driverName}</driver>
...
<security> <user-name>${webmanager.externaldb.dbuser}</user-name>
...
<password>${webmanager.externaldb.dbpassword}<
...
/password> </security>
...
</datasource>
...
Note that you still have to fill in the correct values for the connection-url, driver, user-name and
...
password. Examples for the connection-url, driver and user-name can be found in the settings.xml.
...
The driver value has to correspond with the name attribute of the driver you wish to use as defined
...
in the drivers tag in the datasources subsystem.
...
Furthermore, the driver for your database must be copied to the lib directory of your Tomcat or JBoss
...
installation. Supported drivers can be found in the ext-directory in the root of the SDK distribution.
...
It is advised to generate a new repository.xml using the maven configure-jcr-repository profile to
...
make sure the jcr also accesses the database using JNDI and uses the WebManagerDb database
...
connection. When you place this newly generated repository.xml you need to completely rebuild the
...
JCR-index and thus stop the application server, remove the current repository directory and then
...
start the application server again.
...
If your installation contains custom database connections, you have to manually configure those to
...
make use of JNDI, which includes adding the datasource to the application server configuration and
...
updating the database connection set in the [Database configuration] tab of the setup tool.
...
If you don't want to use JNDI, you have to fill in the old settings in the dbcbmanager sets in
...
the dpcbmanager_defaults.xml which are generated in the WEB-INF folder of the
...
webmanager-backend-webapp based on the settings.xml before executing the upgrade. You cannot
...
generate non-JNDI dbcpmanager_defaults.xml using a maven command you always have to do this
...
manually.
...
The secure form signer used to protect forms against tampering has been changed. All dumped
...
pages which contain interactive forms or advanced forms will need to be regenerated or
...
flushed from the cache. Any old pre-upgrade forms submitted by browsers to the website after
...
the upgrade will be rejected by the secure forms checking filter.
...
PageVersionEvent.getTargetPageVersion() is deprecated; use .getPageVersion() instead. This
...
change is relevant only for event handlers that use the deprecated method on a COPY event.
...
PageVersionEvent.getEntity() no longer returns the original page version, it now returns the
...
target page version. The same holds for .getPageVersion(). This change is relevant only for
...
event handlers that use one of these methods on a COPY event.
...
ElementEvent.getElement() now returns the target element, instead of the old element. This
...
change is relevant only for event handlers that use this method on a COPY event.
...
ElementEvent.getOriginalElement() now returns the original element. This change is relevant
...
only for handlers that use this method on a COPY event.
...
Subscription to interface scopes is possible; this might cause issues if a handler is subscribed
...
to both Foo.class and FooParent.class.
...
The PageManagementService no longer publishes UPDATE events, WCBs that rely on such an event
...
being published after calling either .addLeadText(PageVersion), .addRedirect(PageVersion), or
...
.reorderElements(PageVersion, Element[]) should now publish UPDATE events themselves.
...
HistoryEvent.TOUCH is deprecated (and no longer published), please replace this with
...
EntityEvent.UPDATE (both PRE and POST).
...
Saving page metadata no longer publishes an MediaItemVersionEvent, but a PageVersionEvent
...
instead.
...
Apache Commons FileUpload has been updated to v1.3.1 (from 1.2.2), any implementation of
...
FileItem now should implement both setHeaders(FileUploadHeaders) and getHeaders(). See
...
http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-fileupload/changes-report.html for other changes.
