v1.5.6

Enhancements

• Ensure the xml preamble and opening xsl:stylesheet tag is consistent in all XSLT files - help to reduce likelihood of namespace issues in transformed HTML.
• Enforce Sass lint at theme build time. See wcomponents-theme/.sass-lint.yml for default rules.
• Updated all internal uses of org.apache.commons.lang.* to use org.apache.commons.lang3.* which is the direct dependency in WComponents. #1539

Bug Fixes

• Updated WMenuGroup XSLT to prevent double separators #1544.
• Update version of npm sass module to fix build failure on Windows #1541.
• Fixed a flaw which would cause themes to fail to build if the inherit file had a terminating empty line. Part of #1492.

Note last item requires themes which inherit from any theme other than wcomponents-default to replace the theme in inherit.txt with a Maven property in POM.xml of theme.inherit. May be a path to a ZIP or directory tree (relative and absolute paths are both acceptable).

<properties>
  <theme.inherit>/PATH/TO/the_parent_theme</theme.inherit>
</properties>

The previous method of trying to guess the parent theme from a name assuming a theme path is partially supported by using the previous inherit.txt value along with a second Maven property theme.inheritance.dir. This, it is plain, is a bit of a pointless waste of time since the path could be added directly to the theme.inherit property.

<properties>
  <theme.inherit>the_parent_theme</theme.inherit>
  <theme.inheritance.dir>/some/path</theme.inheritance.dir>
</properties>
