CakePHP 2.5.0-RC2 Released
The CakePHP core team is proud to announce the immediate availability of CakePHP 2.5.0-RC2
The CakePHP core team is proud to announce the immediate availability of CakePHP 2.5.0-RC2[1]. This is the second release candidate for the 2.5.0 branch. 2.5.0-RC2 contains bugfixes and a few new features added since 2.5.0-RC1 was released. When complete, 2.5.0 will replace the 2.4.x branch. A migration guide is available in the book [2] and we encourage you to read it if you are upgrading from an older version.
Changes since 2.5.0-RC1:
- AssetDispatcher early 404’s were reverted. They caused problems with extension based routing in plugins.
- View paths for plugins are now cached. This change optimizes lookup times when using multiple views/elements from a plugin.
- CakeEmail configuration can now set the layout without setting the template.
- Transliteration rules used by Inflector::slug() have been expanded.
- CakeResponse::file() now rejects paths with ..
If there are no important issues found, a stable release of 2.5.0 should be released in the next few weeks.
A huge thanks to all involved in terms of both contributions through commits, tickets, documentation edits, and those whom have otherwise contributed to the framework.
