    36 
    37 The internationalization support (i18) for Trac is depending on [http://babel.edgewall.org/ Babel], version 0.9.5 and later. Support has been added for Babel 1.0 through 1.3 (the most recent at the time of this release).

    64 == Other Modifications made to the 1.0 API ==
    65 
    66 Take the //will be removed in version 1.1.1// comments in the code seriously. The earlier the planned API changes in 1.1.x, the better (gives more time to plugin authors to adapt). TODO

    74 
    75 === Database API Changes ===
    76 
    77 
    78 ==== `Environment.get_db_cnx` has been removed #get_db_cnx
    79 
    80 Following the [../0.12#get_db_cnx deprecation] made in 0.12, the method `Environment.get_db_cnx` has been removed.
    81 
    82 One should now only use the //context managers// for retrieving a database Connection
    83 in read or write mode.
    84  - a **read-only** Connection can be used to form queries:
    85    {{{#!python
    86    with env.db_query as db:
    87        ...
    88    }}}
    89    a `db` instance obtained the above way should only be used for executing //SELECT//
    90    queries
    91  - a **writable** Connection can be used to modify the database content in a transaction:
    92    {{{#!python
    93    with env.db_transaction as db:
    94        ...
    95    }}}
    96    a `db` instance obtained the above way can be used to execute //INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE//
    97    queries; they will be committed when the last such automatic transaction
    98    in the control flow completes successfully. See DatabaseApi for the full details.
    99 
    100 `Environment.get_read_db` and the decorators `@with_transaction(env)` and `env.with_transaction()` have been [../1.0#with_transaction deprecated] since Trac 1.0 and will be removed in Trac 1.3.1.
    101 
    102 
    103 ==== `db` parameters removed from function and method signatures
    104 
    105 With the introduction of `@with_transaction(env)` decorators in 0.12 and continuing with the introduction of the database connection context managers in 1.0, the `db` parameters passed as function and method arguments became [../0.12#Othernews deprecated].
    106 
    107 The `db` parameters have been removed from nearly all function and method signatures. The `db` arguments are still present on methods of `IEnvironmentParticipant` implementations, but are deprecated and should no longer be used. They will be removed in 1.3.1.
    108 
    109 
    110 ==== `ConnectionBase` class
    111 
    112 The `ConnectionBase` class defines an abstract interface that database backends must adhere to when implementing a `Connection` class.
    113 
    114 
    115 
    116 === Template and CSS changes
    117 
    118 `tt` tags are not support in HTML5 and have been replaced with `code` tags in Trac (#11094). The styling of `tt` and `code` tags is the same in Trac , but `code` tags should be used since the styling for `tt` tags will be removed in a future version of Trac.
    119 
    120 The `about.css` stylesheet has been removed and the rules contained in that stylesheet have been moved to `trac.css`. The table of environment information on the //Error// and //About// pages have been extracted to a new template `environment_info.html` and the markup and associated rules in the stylesheet have been significantly changed.
    121 
    122 //Many more changes to be added, depending on how details we want to get. TracUpgrade#CustomizedTemplates claims that changes to `id`s and CSS `class`es will be documented in ApiChanges.//
    123 
    124 
    125 == New in the 1.1.2 API ==
    126 
    127 Be sure to have a look at the new ApiDocs ([http://www.edgewall.org/docs/trac-trunk/html/ for latest trunk]).
    128 
    129 //This is a work in progress - coverage is still not yet complete.//
