2.0.0-rc.2

DittoDotnetTools 2 supports Ditto .NET SDK 5. Both DittoTools.Heartbeat and DittoTools.PresenceViewer require Ditto 5.0.1 or a later 5.x release.

Breaking changes

• Ditto .NET SDK 4 is no longer supported.
• The tools now target .NET 8. .NET 7 is no longer supported.
• The minimum Android API level increased from 21 to 24.
• Heartbeat and Presence Viewer use the Ditto .NET SDK 5 peer, server-connection, query, sync, and transport APIs. (SDKS-3742)
• Mac Catalyst is supported, but release builds are restricted to arm64 because the Ditto 5.0.1 native package does not contain an x64 Mac Catalyst slice.

Heartbeat changes

• Heartbeat peer documents add a connectionTypes map containing every observed SDK connection type. The existing bluetooth, p2pWifi, and lan summary fields remain available.

Added

• Added Mac Catalyst targets to both tools.
• Added .env configuration for the included sample app.
• Presence Viewer assets are now included directly in DittoTools.PresenceViewer; the separate DittoPresenceViewerCore package is no longer required.

Fixed

• Fixed required Android transport permissions, deferred sync startup, Presence Viewer WebView readiness, and Heartbeat toolbar icons during real-device validation. (SDKS-3742, SDKS-3869)
• Fixed Heartbeat incorrectly counting WebSocket connections as LAN.
• Updated the published support and homepage metadata.
• Restored the Presence Viewer assets used by previous GA tools releases. (SDKS-4488)
