Posted by spastorino September 15, 2011 @ 12:55 AM

Hi everyone,

Rails 3.1.1.rc1 has been released. Please give it a try, it's our chance to fix regressions you might find and make a beautiful 3.1.1 stable release. If there are no regressions I will be releasing 3.1.1 final next September 16th during GoGaRuCo.

CHANGES

ActionMailer

• No changes

ActionPack

• Allow asset tag helper methods to accept :digest => false option in order to completely avoid the digest generation. Useful for linking assets from static html files or from emails when the user could probably look at an older html email with an older asset. [Santiago Pastorino]

• Don't mount Sprockets server at config.assets.prefix if config.assets.compile is false. [Mark J. Titorenko]

• Set relative url root in assets when controller isn't available for Sprockets (eg. Sass files using asset_path). Fixes #2435 [Guillermo Iguaran]

• Fix basic auth credential generation to not make newlines. GH #2882

• Fixed the behavior of asset pipeline when config.assets.digest and config.assets.compile are false and requested asset isn't precompiled. Before the requested asset were compiled anyway ignoring that the config.assets.compile flag is false. [Guillermo Iguaran]

• CookieJar is now Enumerable. Fixes #2795

• Fixed AssetNotPrecompiled error raised when rake assets:precompile is compiling certain .erb files. See GH #2763 #2765 #2805 [Guillermo Iguaran]

• Manifest is correctly placed in assets path when default assets prefix is changed. Fixes #2776 [Guillermo Iguaran]

• Fixed stylesheetlinktag and javascriptincludetag to respect additional options passed by the users when debug is on. [Guillermo Iguaran]

• Fix ActiveRecord#exists? when passsed a nil value

• Fix assertselectemail to work on multipart and non-multipart emails as the method stopped working correctly in Rails 3.x due to changes in the new mail gem.

ActiveModel

• Remove hard dependency on bcrypt-ruby to avoid make ActiveModel dependent on a binary library. You must add the gem explicitly to your Gemfile if you want use ActiveModel::SecurePassword:

  gem 'bcrypt-ruby', '~> 3.0.0'

  See GH #2687. [Guillermo Iguaran]

ActiveRecord

• LRU cache in mysql and sqlite are now per-process caches.

  • lib/activerecord/connectionadapters/mysql_adapter.rb: LRU cache keys are per process id.
  • lib/activerecord/connectionadapters/sqlite_adapter.rb: ditto

• Database adapters use a statement pool for limiting the number of open prepared statments on the database. The limit defaults to 1000, but can be adjusted in your database config by changing 'statement_limit'.

• Fix clash between using 'preload', 'joins' or 'eager_load' in a default scope and including the default scoped model in a nested through association. (GH #2834.) [Jon Leighton]

• Ensure we are not comparing a string with a symbol in HasManyAssociation#inverseupdatescounter_cache?. Fixes GH #2755, where a counter cache could be decremented twice as far as it was supposed to be.

  [Jon Leighton]

• Don't send any queries to the database when the foreign key of a belongs_to is nil. Fixes GH #2828. [Georg Friedrich]

• Fixed findin_batches method to not include order from defaultscope. See GH #2832 [Arun Agrawal]

• Don't compute table name for abstract classes. Fixes problem with setting the primary key in an abstract class. See GH #2791. [Akira Matsuda]

• Psych errors with poor yaml formatting are proxied. Fixes GH #2645 and GH #2731

• Use the LIMIT word with the methods #last and #first. Fixes GH #2783 [Damien Mathieu]

ActiveResource

• No changes

ActiveSupport

• Fixed performance issue where TimeZone lookups would require tzinfo each time [Tim Lucas]

• ActiveSupport::OrderedHash is now marked as extractable when using Array#extract_options! [Prem Sichanugrist]

Railties

• No changes
