Release notes for Catel 4.3.0
Release date:
=============
2015/10/05
Added/fixed (BREAKING CHANGES):
===============================
No breaking changes, but made a lot of preparations for the “async big bang” that will happen in Catel 5.0. We are
currently trying to index all members that might need async members in the future. Most of these members are now
marked as obsolete and have an async handler which must be used in the future.
Platform support changes:
=========================
(*) CTL-724 Created separate projects for Universal App Platform projects (UAP 10.0)
(*) CTL-741 Support .NET 4.6 for Prism 5
Classes marked as obsolete:
===========================
Our mission is to make Catel easier to maintain in the future. One way to achieve this is to remove unused
features and components. We are actively removing features by marking them obsolete. If nobody complains,
we will remove the features in the next major release.
(*) CTL-671 Marked Catel.Extensions.CSLA as obsolete
(*) CTL-672 Marked Catel.Extensions.Wcf.Server as obsolete
Added/fixed:
============
(+) CTL-718 Add LogMessage event to RollingInMemoryService
(+) CTL-727 Created ExceptionFactory and convert all throw new exception calls
(+) CTL-732 Add DeviceHelper so it’s easy to determine on what kind of device the code is being executed
(+) CTL-730 Support array deserialization in all serializers (Xml, Binary, Json)
(*) CTL-713 Improved designer support by automatically initializing all classes that derive from DesignTimeInitializer.
This way it’s possible to have customized registrations at design time (for example switching languages at design
time, even when the code is using the ILanguageService and custom resx files)
(*) CTL-719 Don’t store extra undo action for properties when validation errors are cleared in memento
(*) CTL-723 Add LogExtensions.ErrorAndCreateException to replace ErrorAndThrowException which returns an exception. The
code must be changed to ‘throw Log.ErrorAndCreateException<MyException>(“my message”);’
(*) CTL-724 Created separate projects for Universal App Platform projects (UAP 10.0)
(*) CTL-725 Update NuGet reference to 2.8.6
(*) CTL-726 Fallback to non-weak events when weak event subscription fails (required for UAP)
(*) CTL-729 Support .NET native in the WeakEventListener
(*) CTL-735 Support async canceling on closing event of DataWindow
(*) CTL-741 Support .NET 4.6 for Prism 5
(x) CTL-714 Serialize Model with only one property as XML attribute does not work
(x) CTL-720 NullReferenceException in ChangeNotificationWrapper
(x) CTL-721 AppDomainExtensions.PreloadAssemblies() throws exception on loading native dll
(x) CTL-731 ViewModelBase.CancelingAsync gets called twice on IViewModelExtensions.CancelAndCloseViewModelAsync
