Bugfixes

You can expect the following changes in 3.1.8. See the changelog for every commit.

• Using matching() on a BelongsToMany association with conditions no longer emits invalid SQL. (@markstory)
• Generated reciprocal BelongsToMany associations have the original conditions applied to them. (@markstory)
• Inflector::camelize() now caches results (@ypnos-web)
• ConnectionManager::config() no longer clones objects passed in. (@lorenzo)
• Postgres schema reflection now only reads constraints in the connection’s schema (@lorenzo)
• Memcached can now connect to unix domain sockets. (@tersmitten)
• TreeBehavior now uses expression objects for field updates. This makes it compatible with datasources requiring identifier quoting. (@skiedr, @lorenzo)
• Fixed incorrect behavior of TextHelper::autoLink() when CRLFs are present. (@jeremyharris)
• The fullDebug argument of TestCase::assertHtml() now works as documented. (@jeremyharris)
• Helpers now allow newlines in javascript confirm messages. (@markstory)
• The cakephp-plugins.php file can now be located when cakephp/core is used as a standalone component. (@harikt)
• Simulated GET requests (via method overriding) no longer POST data populated. This prevents GET requests from looking like they are POST requests that may cause unintentional side-effects. (@lorenzo)
• SecurityComponent now validates data whenever $request->data is populated. This allows SecurityComponent to apply to PATCH and DELETE requests. (@markstory, @chinpei215)
• Controller::$name is correctly inflected when using the base route class. (@markstory)

Minor Enhancements

• Improved API docs. (@bcrowe, @Mathieu, @Tzaoh, @Sergey, @luke83)
• ConnectionManager::config() now accepts a callable. This makes it consistent with Log::config(). (@lorenzo)
• Query::set() now accepts a builder callable. (@lorenzo)
• Database\Type now allows objects to be injected via set(). (@jadb)
• SQL Query logs now include execution time and rows returned. (@Bernat Arlandis)
