Dependency Management

For development using the Liferay Platform, update Liferay Workspace to use the  latest dependencies, by adding the following line to the build.gradle file:

dependencies {
	compileOnly group: "com.liferay.portal", name: "release.portal.api"
}

All portal dependencies are now defined with a single declaration. When using an IDE such as Eclipse or IntelliJ all apis are immediately available in autocomplete for immediate use.  

By setting a product info key property it will be possible to update all dependencies to a new version by updating the liferay.workspace.product property in the liferay workspace projects gradle.property file:

liferay.workspace.product = portal-7.4-ga15

When using an IDE such as Eclipse or IntelliJ all apis are immediately available in autocomplete for immediate use.

Objects

Manage object’s modeling permission individually

Now, besides being able to define Object entries permissions by Roles, users with the required permissions can also define the entries permissions individually, giving more flexibility at entry level. With that capability, roles can have manually have permissions for a set of entries in an object without needing to have to all.

Our current capabilities for optimizing the translation process have been improved to take into account the different experiences that can be defined. Now the side by side translation UI allows users to select the experience to translate.
