1.10.0

AppCenter

Android

• [Security] To enforce TLS 1.2 on all HTTPS connections the SDK makes, we are dropping support for API level 15 (which supports only TLS 1.0), the minimum SDK version thus becomes 16. Previous versions of the SDK were already using TLS 1.2 on API level 16+.

App Center Push

Android

The Firebase messaging SDK is now a dependency of the App Center Push SDK to be able to support Android P and also prevent features to break after April 2019 based on this announcement.

You need to follow some migration steps after updating the SDK to actually use Firebase instead of the manual registration mechanism that we are providing. The non Firebase mechanism still works after updating the SDK but you will see a deprecation message, but this will not work on Android P devices until you migrate.

After updating the app to use Firebase, you will also no longer see duplicate notifications when uninstalling and reinstalling the app on the same device and user.

1.7.0

Version 1.7.0

AppCenter

Android

• [Improvement] Enable TLS 1.2 on API levels where it's supported but not enabled by default (API level 16-19, this became a default starting API level 20). Please note we still support Android API level 15 and it uses TLS 1.0.
• [Improvement] Gzip is used over HTTPS when request size is larger than 1.4KB.
• [Fix] Fix a crash when disabling a module at the same time logs are sent.
• [Fix] Fix pretty print JSON in Android P when verbose logging is enabled.

AppCenterCrashes

UWP

• [Fix #543] Fix warning "The referenced component 'Microsoft.AppCenter.Crashes.dll' could not be found". You might need to clean solution and package cache after updating nuget to resolve the warning for good.

1.6.1

Version 1.6.1

This version contains bug fixes.

AppCenter

• [Fix #649] Fix a deadlock when setting wrapper SDK information or setting log url while other channel operations performed such as when Crashes is starting.

iOS

• [Fix #670] Previous release was unintentionally requiring Mono 5.8 on iOS applications. This build issue is now fixed.

UWP

• [Fix #613] When marking an unhandled exception as handled, the SDK was shutting down and no further log could be sent. This is now fixed.

AppCenterCrashes

Xamarin

• [Fix] Fix a crash when calling Crashes.TrackError exception parameter with null, now prints an error instead.
• [Fix] Fix a SDK crash while saving original crash if SDK cannot serialize the exception for client side inspection (with an exception that is not SerializableException).
• [Fix] When looking at (await Crashes.GetLastSessionCrashReportAsync()).Exception or when using the sending callbacks, the Exception object is now null instead of containing a serialization exception (on failure to get original exception object after restart). This is only for client side inspection, the crash stack trace is correctly reported to the server in all scenarios.

Android

• [Fix] Fix reporting crash when process name cannot be determined.

iOS

• [Fix] Fix an issue in breadcrumbs feature when events are being tracked on the main thread just before a crash.

AppCenterPush

• [Fix] Fix a crash on Android 8.0 (exact version, this does not happen in 8.1) where having an adaptive icon (like launcher icon) would cause crash of the entire system U.I. on push. On Android 8.0 we replace the adaptive icon by a placeholder icon (1 black pixel) to avoid the crash, starting Android 8.1 the adaptive icon is displayed without fallback.

1.2.0

Version 1.2.0

This version has a potentially breaking change (in push behavior) with bug fixes and improvements.

UWP

AppCenterCrashes

AppCenterPush

• [Fix] Fix "Missing Push Notification Entitlement" warning message after uploading an application to TestFlight and publishing to App Store.

• [Improvement] (Breaking Change) In previous versions, it was required to add code to DidReceiveRemoteNotification callback in your application delegate if you or 3rd party libraries already implemented this callback. This is no longer necessary.
  This is a breaking change for some use cases because it required modifications in your code. Not changing your implementation might cause push notifications to be received twice.

  • If you don't see any implementation of DidReceiveRemoteNotification callback in your application delegate, you don't need to do anything, there is no breaking change for you.
  • If you want to keep automatic forwarding disabled, you also don't need to do anything.
  • If your application delegate contains implementation of DidReceiveRemoteNotification, you need to remove the following code from your implementation of the callback. This is typically the case when you or your 3rd party libraries implement the callback.

  public override void DidReceiveRemoteNotification(UIApplication application, NSDictionary userInfo, System.Action<UIBackgroundFetchResult> completionHandler)
  {
      var result = Push.DidReceiveRemoteNotification(userInfo);
      if (result)
      {
          completionHandler?.Invoke(UIBackgroundFetchResult.NewData);
      }
      else
      {
          completionHandler?.Invoke(UIBackgroundFetchResult.NoData);
      }
  }
