CakePHP 3.3.6 Released

The CakePHP core team is happy to announce the immediate availability of CakePHP 3.3.6. This is a maintenance release for the 3.3 branch that fixes several community reported issues.

Bugfixes

You can expect the following changes in 3.3.6. See the changelog for every commit.

  • The ORM will now correctly handle complex types like datetimes in where conditions for associations that are joined with joinWith(), innerJoinWith(), matching() and notMatching().
  • View Cells now include the template and action name when generating cache keys. This fixes incorrect cached content from being displayed.
  • When autoFields are disabled 1:1 associated records will now be hydrated as an empty object.
  • The associations generated by BelongsToMany associations now preserve the loading strategy defined in the root association.
  • A double URL encoding issue on cookie values emitted by the PSR7 HTTP stack. This resulted in encrypted cookies not being readable.
  • TestCase::getMockForModel() now correctly sets plugin model aliases.
  • RoutingMiddleware sets the request method based on the _method request data parameter.
  • SqlServer handles default values with N prefixes now.

New Features

  • Improved API documentation.
  • The ajaxLogin of AuthComponent is now deprecated.
  • PaginatorHelper supports escape => false in more methods.
  • PaginatorHelper::generateUrl() was added.
  • HtmlHelper::meta() can now create canonical, next and prev tags.
