This release we have made many smaller fixes.
The http.request() using HTTPS+POST, now works with payloads larger than 16k bytes, which is the limitation of the TLS record size.
We now use chunked encoding for large payloads.
The DefoldSDK has got two new events dmExtension::EVENT_ID_ICONIFYAPP and dmExtension::EVENT_ID_DEICONIFYAPP which allows you to handle the case when an app is minimized to the tray, or shown again.
We’ve fixed the debuggability of the Android bundles that allows you to either debug using Android Studio, or getting a crash log from your device.
NOTE: This is a change to the AndroidManifest.xml so be sure to update your custom manifest if you use one. The setting is activated automatically if you choose to bundle with “Debug”, or you can control it manually by adding android.debuggable (values 0 or 1) to the game.project file.
Updating the documentation is an ongoing process, and we’ve made various documentation fixes, e.g. the C-to-Lua callback functions,
broken links, typos etc.
We have also worked on our backend, doing numerous CI fixes, everything from uploading, downloading, unpacking, notarization, bundling the correct things etc. We’re now in a much much better place than before though, so hopefully we won’t see as many issues as this in a long time.
This will help us test and make our releases in a much more efficient manner going forward.
