Broadleaf Commerce 7.0.1-GA

Released on May 16, 2024

This is the 1st patch release for Broadleaf Framework 7.0.x. To upgrade a 7.0.x application to the 7.0.1.1-GA release, it should only require updating the parent pom.xml broadleaf-boot-starter-parent to 7.0.1.1-GA.

: Due to changes in the ESAPI library, the 'esapi-java-logging.properties' file was removed from the framework and released again with 7.0.1.1-GA version

Additional effort was put into this release to refactor, improve formatting and general cleaning up. Various deprecated classes, fields and methods have been removed.
Make sure to revisit Updated 6.2 to 7.0 Migration Notes for additional schema changes. Also, check each of the module release notes from Release Summary.
