Django 1.0.2 release notes
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Welcome to Django 1.0.2!
|
|
|
|
This is the second "bugfix" release in the Django 1.0 series,
|
|
improving the stability and performance of the Django 1.0 codebase. As
|
|
such, Django 1.0.2 contains no new features (and, pursuant to
|
|
:doc:`our compatibility policy </misc/api-stability>`, maintains backwards compatibility with Django
|
|
1.0.0), but does contain a number of fixes and other
|
|
improvements. Django 1.0.2 is a recommended upgrade for any
|
|
development or deployment currently using or targeting Django 1.0.
|
|
|

|
Fixes and improvements in Django 1.0.2
|
|
======================================
|
|
|
|
The primary reason behind this release is to remedy an issue in the
|
|
recently-released Django 1.0.1; the packaging scripts used for Django
|
|
1.0.1 omitted some directories from the final release package,
|
|
including one directory required by ``django.contrib.gis`` and part of
|
|
Django's unit-test suite.
|
|
|
|
Django 1.0.2 contains updated packaging scripts, and the release
|
|
package contains the directories omitted from Django 1.0.1. As such,
|
|
this release contains all of the fixes and improvements from Django
|
|
1.0.1; see :doc:`the Django 1.0.1 release notes </releases/1.0.1>` for
|
|
details.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, in the period since Django 1.0.1 was released:
|
|
|
|
* Updated Hebrew and Danish translations have been added.
|
|
|
|
* The default ``__repr__`` method of Django models has been made more
|
|
robust in the face of bad Unicode data coming from the
|
|
``__unicode__`` method; rather than raise an exception in such
|
|
cases, ``repr()`` will now contain the string "[Bad Unicode data]"
|
|
in place of the invalid Unicode.
|
|
|
|
* A bug involving the interaction of Django's ``SafeUnicode`` class
|
|
and the MySQL adapter has been resolved; ``SafeUnicode`` instances
|
|
(generated, for example, by template rendering) can now be assigned
|
|
to model attributes and saved to MySQL without requiring an explicit
|
|
intermediate cast to ``unicode``.
|
|
|
|
* A bug affecting filtering on a nullable ``DateField`` in SQLite has
|
|
been resolved.
|
|
|
|
* Several updates and improvements have been made to Django's
|
|
documentation.
