repoze.bfg 1.3b2 has been released. It can be installed via:
easy_install -i http://dist.repoze.org/bfg/dev/simple repoze.bfg Or via PyPI. The docs at http://docs.repoze.org/bfg/1.3 have been updated. This is the second beta release of BFG 1.3. It contains one bugfix and (unfortunately) one minor backwards incompatibility. The changelog follows: 1.3b2 (2010-10-28) ================== Bug Fixes --------- - The ``repoze.bfg.security.view_execution_permitted`` API could return the wrong boolean result due to a bug in the configurator, leading to inappropriate view execution by persons without permission when it was imported and used directly. Thanks to Shane Hathaway for a bug report and a patch. Backwards Incompatibilities --------------------------- - Previously, the sentinel to register a view as explicitly "no permission required" (most useful when a default permission is in effect) was to register it explicitly with the value ``None`` as an argument to the ``permission`` parameter of the ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator.add_view``. Using ``None`` as a sentinel meaning "no permission required" in that location, however, was incompatible with the expectations of both the ``view`` ZCML directive and the ``bfg_view`` decorator, which both passed ``None`` explicitly to ``add_view``, overriding any default permission. The symptom was that any "default permission" configured appeared to not work if either ZCML or the ``bfg_view`` directive was used to register a view (although using ``add_view`` directly did work). The ``None`` value as a sentinel could also not be spelled using ZCML. Now, the sentinel meaning "no permission required" is the string ``__no_permission_required__``, which satisfies the expectation of the ``view`` ZCML directive and the ``bfg_view`` decorator, and, since it's a string, it can be spelled in both Python and within ZCML. Thanks to Wichert Akkerman for the bug report. _______________________________________________ Repoze-dev mailing list Repoze-dev@lists.repoze.org http://lists.repoze.org/listinfo/repoze-dev
