CHANGELOG.md

2.4.0

Breaking changes

• RealmResults.distinct() returns a new RealmResults object instead of filtering on the original object (#2947).
• RealmResults is auto-updated continuously. Any transaction on the current thread which may have an impact on the order or elements of the RealmResults will change the RealmResults immediately instead of change it in the next event loop. The standard RealmResults.iterator() will continue to work as normal, which means that you can still delete or modify elements without impacting the iterator. The same is not true for simple for-loops. In some cases a simple for-loop will not work (https://realm.io/docs/java/latest/api/io/realm/OrderedRealmCollection.html#loops), and you must use the new createSnapshot() method.

Deprecated

• RealmResults.removeChangeListeners(). Use RealmResults.removeAllChangeListeners() instead.

Enhancements

• Added support for sorting by link's field (#672).
• Added OrderedRealmCollectionSnapshot class and OrderedRealmCollection.createSnapshot() method. OrderedRealmCollectionSnapshot is useful when changing RealmResults or RealmList in simple loops.

Internal

• Use Object Store's Results as the backend for RealmResults (#3372).
  • Use Object Store's notification mechanism to trigger listeners.
  • Local commit triggers Realm global listener and RealmObject listener on current thread immediately instead of in the next event loop.

Internal

• Updated to Realm Sync v1.0.4.
• Updated to Realm Core v2.3.1.

2.3.0

Object Server API Changes

• Realm Sync v1.0.0 has been released, and Realm Mobile Platform is no longer considered in beta.
• Breaking change: Location of Realm files are now placed in getFilesDir()/<userIdentifier> instead of getFilesDir()/. This is done in order to support shared Realms among users, while each user retaining their own local copy.
• Breaking change: SyncUser.all() now returns Map instead of List.
• Breaking change: Added a default UserStore saving users in a Realm file (RealmFileUserStore).
• Breaking change: Added multi-user support to UserStore. Added get(String) and remove(String), removed remove() and renamed get() to getCurrent().
• Breaking change: Changed the order of arguments to SyncCredentials.custom() to match iOS: token, provider, userInfo.
• Added support for PermissionOffer and PermissionOfferResponse to SyncUser.getManagementRealm().
• Exceptions thrown in error handlers are ignored but logged (#3559).

2.2.2

Object Server API Changes (In Beta)

• Realm migration wasn't triggered when the primary key definition was altered (#3966).
• Use phantom reference to solve the finalize time out issue (#2496).

Enhancements

• All major public classes are now non-final. This is mostly a compromise to support Mockito. All protected fields/methods are still not considered part of the public API and can change without notice (#3869).
• All Realm instances share a single notification daemon thread.

• Remove includedescriptorclasses option from ProGuard rule file in order to support built-in shrinker of Android Gradle Plugin (#3714).
• Unexpected RealmMigrationNeededException was thrown when a field was added to synced Realm.

Enhancements

• Added support for the annotationProcessor configuration provided by Android Gradle Plugin 2.2.0 or later. Realm plugin adds its annotation processor to the annotationProcessor configuration instead of apt configuration if it is available and the com.neenbedankt.android-apt plugin is not used. In Kotlin projects, kapt is used instead of the annotationProcessor configuration (#3026).

2.1.1

Bug fixes

• Fixed a bug in Realm.insert and Realm.insertOrUpdate methods causing a StackOverFlow when you try to insert a cyclic graph of objects between Realms (#3732).

• Permission error when a database file was located on external storage (#3140).
• Memory leak when unsubscribing from a RealmResults/RealmObject RxJava Observable (#3552).

Enhancements

• Realm.compactRealm() now works for encrypted Realms.
• Added first(E defaultValue) and last(E defaultValue) methods to RealmList and RealmResult. These methods will return the provided object instead of throwing an IndexOutOfBoundsException if the list is empty.
• Reduce transformer logger verbosity (#3608).
• RealmLog.setLevel(int) for setting the log level across all loggers.

Internal

• Upgraded Realm Core to 2.1.3

2.0.0

This release introduces support for the Realm Mobile Platform! See https://realm.io/news/introducing-realm-mobile-platform/ for an overview of these great new features.

Breaking Changes

• Files written by Realm 2.0 cannot be read by 1.x or earlier versions. Old files can still be opened.
• It is now required to call Realm.init(Context) before calling any other Realm API.
• Removed RealmConfiguration.Builder(Context), RealmConfiguration.Builder(Context, File) and RealmConfiguration.Builder(File) constructors.
• isValid() now always returns true instead of false for unmanaged RealmObject and RealmList. This puts it in line with the behaviour of the Cocoa and .NET API's (#3101).

• Added new RealmFileException.
  • IncompatibleLockFileException has been removed and replaced by RealmFileException with kind INCOMPATIBLE_LOCK_FILE.
  • RealmIOExcpetion has been removed and replaced by RealmFileException.
• RealmConfiguration.Builder.assetFile(Context, String) has been renamed to RealmConfiguration.Builder.assetFile(String).
• Object with primary key is now required to define it when the object is created. This means that Realm.createObject(Class<E>) and DynamicRealm.createObject(String) now throws RealmException if they are used to create an object with a primary key field. Use Realm.createObject(Class<E>, Object) or DynamicRealm.createObject(String, Object) instead.
• Importing from JSON without the primary key field defined in the JSON object now throws IllegalArgumentException.
• Now Realm.beginTransaction(), Realm.executeTransaction() and Realm.waitForChange() throw RealmMigrationNeededException if a remote process introduces incompatible schema changes (#3409).
• The primary key value of an object can no longer be changed after the object was created. Instead a new object must be created and all fields copied over.
• Now Realm.createObject(Class) and Realm.createObject(Class,Object) take the values from the model's fields and default constructor. Creating objects through the DynamicRealm does not use these values (#777).
• When Realm.create*FromJson()s create a new RealmObject, now they take the default values defined by the field itself and its default constructor for those fields that are not defined in the JSON object.

Enhancements

• Added realmObject.isManaged(), RealmObject.isManaged(obj) and RealmCollection.isManaged() (#3101).
• Added RealmConfiguration.Builder.directory(File).
• RealmLog has been moved to the public API. It is now possible to control which events Realm emit to Logcat. See the RealmLog class for more details.
• Typed RealmObjects can now continue to access their fields properly even though the schema was changed while the Realm was open (#3409).
• A RealmMigrationNeededException will be thrown with a cause to show the detailed message when a migration is needed and the migration block is not in the RealmConfiguration.

Bug fixes

• Fixed a lint error in proxy classes when the 'minSdkVersion' of user's project is smaller than 11 (#3356).

Enhancements

• Added RealmQuery.in() for a comparison against multiple values.

• Fixed a bug that prevented some devices from finding async related JNI methods correctly.
• Updated ProGuard configuration in order not to depend on Android's default configuration (#2972).
• Fixed a race condition between Realms notifications and other UI events. This could e.g. cause ListView to crash (#2990).
• Fixed a bug that allowed both RealmConfiguration.Builder.assetFile()/deleteRealmIfMigrationNeeded() to be configured at the same time, which leads to the asset file accidentally being deleted in migrations (#2933).
• Realm crashed outright when the same Realm file was opened in two processes. Realm will now optimistically retry opening for 1 second before throwing an Error (#2459).
