BroadleafCommercePrivate - 5.1.1-GA

Released on February 17, 2017

This is the 1st patch release for Broadleaf Framework 5.1.x. This release contains a combination of bug fixes and some enhancements.

NOTE: If your project uses an Oracle Database, you will need to upgrade directly to 5.1.2-GA

Noteworthy Changes

Side by Side Fields in Admin

New with this release is the ability to associate fields in the admin and have them appear side-by-side. This can be achieved by adding the annotation associatedFieldName to a field. For example, by adding associatedFieldName = "weightUnitOfMeasure" to the weight field in Weight.java, the weightUnitOfMeasure field will not appear along side (or side-by-side) with the weight field in the admin.

An at-a-glance view of the issues that were closed in this release:

Critical Bugs(5)

  • Retrieve Sandbox and its children in same session
  • Fixed bug where SKUs were not being correctly differentiated by all ProductOptions used in SKU generation during add to cart request validation if their ProductOptionValidationStrategyType was null
  • Fixed issue with Offer target and qualifier criteria not honoring subsequent changes on deploy.
  • Remove errant code in assetSelector.js that inadvertantly triggered a form submit
  • Set target criteria collection instead of adding during MT clone

Major Bugs(3)

  • Now persisting CategoryAttributes in same manner as ProductAttributes
  • Fixed bug where DynamicEntityDao was causing a StackOverflow during an infinite recursion caused by multiple levels of @Embeddable components

Minor Bugs(12)

  • Fixed an admin issue in listGrid.js/.css causing Category names to auto hide in Firefox
  • Fixed issue where clicking on the hints icon in the admin resulted in a blank page
  • Implemented javascript fixes for radio buttons and rule builders - RuleBuilders previously did not support Text Lists. This allows for comma separated strings that can use "Contains"
  • Fixed Thymeleaf issue where the MessageResolver Order attribute was not getting honored
  • Fixed gap where new attachFacet method was not calling back to the deprecated method by default
  • Removed the bootstrapcdn reference to font-awesome.min.css
  • Added null check for sku and sku.getCurrency() in VaildateAddRequestActivity
  • Allow admin Javascript errors to show on the frontend console and backend server log
  • Do not attempt to copy IndexFields with MultiTenant since they are not sandboxable
  • Added newline to description partial so that Thymeleaf 3 resolves the empty template correctly
  • Fix typo on PromotionMessageImpl column name index field
  • Fix the links in the Sandbox Workflow Item Approval/Changes list grid if dealing with a Type Entity (e.g. Product, PriceList)

  • Allow merge overrides on Group for collections and adorned target collections
