By default, the Session.timeout configuration option specifies the total
session time, regardless of the amount of activity. This change means
that the timeout specifies how long without any further dynamic requests
before the session cookie expires.
The way it does this is to re-set the session cookie expiry with a
subsequent Set-Cookie command each time a request that necessitates
a session is called.
Strictly speaking, it's a change in session timeout semantics, but I think
it's a good one, because total-session-time-regardless-of-activity is a
stupid timeout to include, and has more to do with the mechanics of the
internet than with application security requirements.
Cleanup of framework's use of @package and @subpackage labels and additional of labels for classes missing packages.
Moved all GridField related components to the one name.
Countless spelling fixes, grammar for other comments.
Link ClassName references in file headers.
In 3.0, doing $Action => SomeController would redirect all action requests
to that default controller. In 3.1, you need to do //$Action => SomeController
but it didnt work - those initial slashes broke matching
Regression introduced by Config API static changes.
Effectively meant that you can no longer log in to the CMS
since the cookie path is set for each URL individually...
This means that you dont have to worry about casting it
as HTMLText again when using the result in a template or other context
However in some situations code might be assuming it can
check with is_string, in which case you now need to use instanceof HTMLText
RequestHandler#handleAction now exists. It takes the request, and
the action to call on itself. All calls from handleRequest to call an action
will go through this method
Controller#handleAction has had it's signature changed to
match new RequestHandler#handleAction
RequestHandler#findAction has been added, which extracts the
"match URL to rules to find action" portion of RequestHandler#handleRequest
into a separate, overrideable function
GridField#handleAction has beeen renamed to handleAlterAction and
CMSBatchActionHandler#handleAction has been renamed to handleBatchAction to
avoid name clash with new RequestHandler#handleAction
Reason for change: The exact behaviour of request handling depended heavily
on whether you inherited from RequestHandler or Controller, and whether the
rule extracted it's action directly (like "foo/$ID" => 'foo') or dynamically
(like "$Action/$ID" => "handleAction"). This cleans up behaviour so
all calls follow the same path through handleRequest and handleAction, and
the additional behaviour that Controller adds is clear.
allowed_actions is now only allowed to reference public methods defined
on the same Controller as the allowed_actions static, and
the wildcard "*" has been deprecated
Controller (and subclasses) failed to enforce $allowed_action restrictions
on parent classes if a child class didn't have it explicitly defined.
Controllers which are extended with $allowed_actions (through an Extension)
now deny access to methods defined on the controller, unless this class also has them in its own
$allowed_actions definition.
If creating an object using Injector::create() and constructor arguments
are passed through, in some cases where the object being created had a yml
configuration set for it, the passed in constructor arguments weren't being
passed through to the instantiation of the object.
