JHipster release v5.0.0-beta.3

This is a specific security release on top of our v5.0.0-beta.2 release from last week, as 2 important security issues have been fixed on Spring Boot 2.0.3.

Please note that Spring Boot 2.0.3 also breaks the way Ehcache works with JHipster: many thanks to Henri Tremblay from the Ehcache team who did an incredible job in fixing the issue during the week-end!

More information on this Spring Boot 2.0.3 upgrade (including the Ehcache issue) is available on #7783.

This BETA version is not available through the usual channels as this is a beta release, please read below for more information!

JHipster 5 will be showcased at the upcoming JHipster Conf where most of the core development team will present their work. Join us in Paris on June, 21st!

You also won’t be able to use the jhipster upgrade sub-generator, as it won’t “see” the BETA release, which is distributed through a specific beta channel on NPM.
