Broadleaf 3.1.12-GA

Released on January 27, 2015

This is the 12th release in the 3.1 line of Broadleaf and we recommend updating to this release immediately. Some of the notable changes in this release:

Pricing modifications

Previously in Broadleaf whenever you priced an order (like with orderService.save(order, true) then individual item prices were updated. This meant that if a customer added an item that cost $5 to their cart, the admin updated the price to be $10, and then the triggered an order reprice (like if they added another item to their cart) then that item would get updated to $10.

This is a little confusing and is not what we want. The fixed functionality does the following:

1. Once an item is added to the cart by a customer that item price is never refreshed
2. When a user logs in and pulls a "stale" cart back after login, item prices are refreshed

If you want to explicitly refresh the item prices in an Order/Cart, we have added a new method to OrderService for this functionality: orderService.save(order, true, true). The second boolean is to update item prices.

Solr indexing Changes

We added some locking around triggering an index to make sure that 2 threads cannot trigger a reindex at the same time and fixed an edge case bug where indexing might duplicate results (we made sure to clear out the index before rebuilding it)..
