Changes affecting version compatibility with former or future versions.

Changes

Deprecations

• The eZ\Publish\API\Repository\ContentService::removeTranslation method is deprecated and will be removed in 7.0.

  Use eZ\Publish\API\Repository\ContentService::deleteTranslation instead.

• The following password hash types are deprecated and will be removed in a future version: eZ\Publish\API\Repository\Values\User::PASSWORD_HASH_MD5_PASSWORD eZ\Publish\API\Repository\Values\User::PASSWORD_HASH_MD5_USER eZ\Publish\API\Repository\Values\User::PASSWORD_HASH_MD5_SITE eZ\Publish\API\Repository\Values\User::PASSWORD_HASH_PLAINTEXT

  Use one of the following types instead: eZ\Publish\API\Repository\Values\User::PASSWORD_HASH_BCRYPT eZ\Publish\API\Repository\Values\User::PASSWORD_HASH_PHP_DEFAULT

  The password hashes of existing users will be updated automatically to the new default hash type eZ\Publish\API\Repository\Values\User::PASSWORD_HASH_PHP_DEFAULT when they login or change their passwords, unless you have specifically configured eZ\Publish\Core\Repository\UserService to use one of the deprecated types.

• Zeta database abstraction layer is deprecated, usage of Doctrine DBAL is adviced instead.

  As has been possible since 6.11 (see changes-6.11.md) it is not possible to use Doctrine DBAL instead in all places, also field types. So this change deprecated the whole abstraction layer Zeta Database in favour of signaling the move to Doctrine DBAL which is easier to work with, and is more powerful so allows for making faster queries in advance cases.

  This affect:

  • eZ\Publish\Core\Persistence\Database\* Zeta DB abstraction
  • eZ\Publish\Core\Persistence\Doctrine\* Implementation of that abstraction for Doctrine
