16 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.
17
18 This release continues to bring Live Data improvments, focusing on the look & feel and adding the ability to edit inline the table data and the ability to filter boolean values. In the same spirit, some existing live tables in XWiki Standard have been converted to Live Data including the list of releases, panels, wikis or likes. Other minor improvments are also provided, like the refactoring of references in macros or a new REST API for the icon theme application.

91
92 == General Notes ==
93
94 * When upgrading make sure you compare and merge the following XWiki configuration files since some parameters may have been modified, removed or added:
95 ** ##xwiki.cfg##
96 ** ##xwiki.properties##
97 ** ##web.xml##
98 ** ##hibernate.cfg.xml##
99 * 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.
100
101 == Issues specific to {{velocity}}$product $version{{/velocity}} ==
102
103 === Changes in web.xml ===
104
105 * ##XWikiXmlRpcContextInitializationFilter## filter has been renamed to ##XWikiRESTContextInitializationFilter## to be more consistent with the current sistuation (XMLRPC support is long gone).
106 * ##org.xwiki.wysiwyg.filter.XWikiContextInitializationFilter## is now deprecated and replaced with the more generic name ##com.xpn.xwiki.web.XWikiContextInitializationFilter## (which does exactly the same thing)
107
108 == API Breakages ==
109
110 The following APIs were modified since {{velocity}}$product{{/velocity}} 13.3:
