5 This is the release notes for [[XWiki Commons>>http://commons.xwiki.org]], [[XWiki Rendering>>http://rendering.xwiki.org]] and [[XWiki Platform>>http://platform.xwiki.org]]. They share the same release notes as they are released together and have the same version.

7 This release was focused on bug fixes. It comes with a lot of bug fixes and a couple of small improvements for things like the live table date filter, the Database List field from AppWithinMinutes or the Delete User modal. We managed to fix 43 bugs in total, among them 10 were blockers and 8 criticals. You can find more interesting statistics and the full list of changes below.

80 == Attachment URL API ==
81
82 In order to fix a cache issue related to attachments, we changed the behavior of [[##Document#getAttachmentURL##>>http://nexus.xwiki.org/nexus/service/local/repositories/public/archive/org/xwiki/platform/xwiki-platform-oldcore/11.3/xwiki-platform-oldcore-11.3-javadoc.jar/!/com/xpn/xwiki/api/Document.html#getAttachmentURL-java.lang.String-]] methods.
83
84 Those methods now return by default [[a ##downloadrev## URL>>Documentation.DevGuide.Architecture.URL Architecture.Standard URL Format||anchor="HAction:downloadrev"]] containing a query parameter part.
85
86 If you want to add a query parameter for the returned URL, please don't append it to the returned URL, but [[use the dedicated API>>http://nexus.xwiki.org/nexus/service/local/repositories/public/archive/org/xwiki/platform/xwiki-platform-oldcore/11.3/xwiki-platform-oldcore-11.3-javadoc.jar/!/com/xpn/xwiki/api/Document.html#getAttachmentURL-java.lang.String-java.lang.String-java.lang.String-]].
87
88 == General Notes ==
89
90 * When upgrading make sure you compare and merge the following XWiki configuration files since some parameters may have been modified, removed or added:
91 ** ##xwiki.cfg##
92 ** ##xwiki.properties##
93 ** ##web.xml##
94 ** ##hibernate.cfg.xml##
95 * 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.
96
97 == API Breakages ==
98
99 No APIs have been modified since XWiki 11.2.
