The tiling code has been overhauled so tile loading in grid layers is now done in a queue.

|
|
The tile queue gives more control on the tile requests sent to the server. Pending requests for tiles that are not needed any more (e.g. after zooming or panning) are avoided, which increases performance and reduces server load.

## Changes in Geometry

The base `OpenLayers.Geometry` class no longer depends on `OpenLayers.Format.WKT` or `OpenLayers.Feature.Vector`. If you want to make use of the `OpenLayers.Geometry.fromWKT` method, you must explicitly include the OpenLayers/Format/WKT.js file in your build.

Without the WKT format included (by default), the `OpenLayers.Geometry::toString` method now returns "[object Object]." Previously, it returned the Well-Known Text representation of the geometry. To maintain the previous behavior, include the OpenLayers/Format/WKT.js file in your build.

## Deprecated Components

|

|

A number of properties, methods, and constructors have been marked as deprecated for multiple releases in the 2.x series. For the 2.12 release this deprecated functionality has been moved to a separate deprecated.js file. If you use any of the constructors or methods below, you will have to explicitly include the deprecated.js file in your build (or add it in a separate `<script>` tag after OpenLayers.js).
