4.0.0 (2025-12-23)

Breaking changes:

• Replace pkg_resources namespace with PEP 420 native namespace. Support only Plone 6.2 and Python 3.10+. @petschki

Internal:

• Move distribution to src layout [gforcada] (#4217)
• Minimal cleanups @gforcada

3.0.1 (2024-12-16)

Bug fixes:

• Remove unneeded code from recursiveTranslate that broke with latest Zope 5.11. zope.i18n already supports recursive translation out of the box since 2008. [maurits] (#70)

3.0.0 (2024-08-21)

Breaking changes:

• Removed Products/validation/validators/validator.py. This had backwards compatibility imports in a way that did not work on Python 3. So apparently no one needed this so far. [maurits] (#60)
• Drop support for Plone 5.2 and for Python 3.7 and lower. Only Plone 6.0 and 6.1 are supported now. Note that in Plone 6.1, this package is no longer tested together with the core. It has been moved to the ecosystem versions. [maurits] (#60)

New features:

• Move translations from plone.app.locales to here [erral] (#11)

Internal:

• Update configuration files. [plone devs]

2.1.3 (2020-06-24)

Bug fixes:

• Minor packaging updates. (#1)

2.1.1 (2018-11-01)

2.0b1 (2009-12-27)

• Added missing zope.i18n(messageid) dependencies. [hannosch]

2.0a1 (2009-11-13)

• Cleaned up package metadata. [hannosch]

• Declare test dependencies in an extra and fixed deprecation warnings for use of Globals. [hannosch]

• Removed useless assert statements. Assert is not a function. [hannosch]

• Purge old zope2 Interface interfaces for Zope 2.12 compatibility. Consider branching before this commit if release required before Plone 4. [elro]

• Cleaned up lots of old BBB code. [hannosch]

• Email validator did not allow apostrophe in the local part of an email address. This closes http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/7947. [hannosch]

• Relaxed EmptyValidator requirement that REQUEST has a form. This closes http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/7346. [bostrick, hannosch]

1.6.4 - unreleased

• Cut the validation short when there is only one validator and this validator is 'sufficient', which means it does not need to validate. [maurits]

• Removed an unnecessary call on Zope startup to the test method in chain.py. [maurits]

• Fix: ValidatorError was used (at least theoretically) in chain.py but not imported. [maurits]

1.6.3 (2009-04-23)

• Fixed the translated error messages to use Message objects correctly. The mapping attribute of Messages can only contain Unicode. Added a helper method safe_unicode to convert non-unicode string data into Unicode. [hannosch]

• Fixed a SyntaxError in RangeValidator. [hannosch]

1.6.2 (2009-04-02)

• Merged in translated error messages for validators from branches/1.6. (see http://dev.plone.org/archetypes/changeset/10942) This might break 3rd party doctests (unicode returned instead of string). [fRiSi]

1.5.1 (2007-08-16)

1.5.1-b2 (2006-03-20)

• Removed tests/runalltests.py and tests/framework.py as they have outlived their usefulness. To run tests use Zope's testrunner: ./bin/zopectl test --nowarn -s Products.validation [stefan]

1.5.1-b1 (2006-02-27)

• cough [nouri]

1.5.0-final (2006-12-15)

• note for release-managers: The version-bump to 1.5 was a bit early, but now as we have it, i keep it and next release number in the cycle needed for Archetypes 1.4.2 (used for Plone 2.5.2) of PortalTransforms is then the 1.5 final. We dont need increasing of release numbers because of Plone 3.0, Archetypes 1.5, ... if there's no change in the dependent product, like this one. [jensens]

1.5.0-a1 (2006-10-25)

• Removed an unused import which caused a deprecation warning. [hannosch]

1.4.1-final (2006-09-08)
