[cds-dk@8.6.0] cds watch now detects a TypeScript project and tries to run with tsx if this is installed locally or globally. Otherwise a warning message is emitted. CDS_TYPESCRIPT=false can be used to opt out of this behavior.
[cds-dk@8.6.0] cds import --group to allow RFC importer to organize imported modules under a logical name.
[cds-dk@8.6.0] cds init/add for Java projects automatically create a package-lock.json.

[cds.java@3.6.0] Optimized HANA JDBC connection retrieval in MT applications with shared pool configured. In particular, recently used connections of the same tenant can be reused much more quickly if they are not taken by an other tenant already.
[cds.java@3.6.0] Support for Apache Kafka messaging in CAP Java application running in a DwC environment, see util-cap-kafka for details.
[cds.java@3.6.0] CAP integration for IAS now also supports SAP BTP, Kyma runtime.

[cds@8.6.0] cds.ql enhanced by functions to facilitate construction of CQN objects.
[cds@8.6.0] cds.ql became a function to turn CQN objects, CQL strings, or tagged template literals into instances of the respective cds.ql class.

Changed

[cds-dk@8.6.0] Running cds init in the user's home dir w/o a project name now fails. This is to prevent creation of configuration that would act as global (user) configuration leading to follow-up problems with later projects.

[cds-compiler@5.6.0] Update OData vocabularies: 'Common', 'EntityRelationship', 'UI'

[cds@8.6.0] CDL, CQL, and CXL globals are deprecated => use respective functions from cds.ql instead.
[cds@8.6.0] CREATE, and DROP globals are deprecated => use respective functions from cds.ql instead.
[cds@8.6.0] Zulu time zone information is stripped from cds.DateTime properties when querying Odata V2 remote services
[cds@8.6.0] Processing of @restrict.where was aligned with CAP Java:
- Instance-based authorization on app service calls does not consider custom WHERE clauses of UPDATE/DELETE queries
  - Until @sap/cds^9, this change can be deactivated via cds.env.features.compat_restrict_where = true
- Simple static clauses (e.g., $user.level > 5) are no longer evaluated by the server but added to the respective SQL regardless. As a result, requests may receive a response of 2xx with an empty body instead of a 403.
  - Until @sap/cds^9, this change can be deactivated via cds.env.features.compat_static_auth = true
- Read restrictions on the entity are no longer taken into consideration when evaluating restrictions on bound actions/ functions
  - Until @sap/cds^9, this change can be deactivated via cds.env.features.compat_restrict_bound = true

Changed

[cds-dk@7.6.0] cds build plugins can provide additional json schemas, including root nodes beta.

[cds-compiler@4.6.0] to.sql/hdi/hdbcds: Removed warnings for number and type of keys in draft-enabled entities.
[cds.java@2.6.0] Outbox messages are no longer stored with a partition number, but with a target, which identifies the outbox service and collector processing the message. The OutboxService.PERSISTENT_NAME instance (formerly managing two partitions) was replaced by two distinct outbox services (OutboxService.PERSISTENT_UNORDERED_NAME and OutboxService.PERSISTENT_ORDERED_NAME) each handling messages with a dedicated target. Compatibility with auditlog or messaging events stored in the old format is ensured.
[cds.java@2.6.0] The OutboxService API has been changed from enroll(String, String) to submit(String, Map<String, Object>). The OutboxMessageEventContext.getMessage() method now respectively returns Map<String, Object> as well.

[cds4j@2.6.0] SQLite: CQL.matchesPattern now also throws an exception on unsupported patterns to align with H2

[cds4j@2.6.0] Rename config option cds.sql.search.use-localized-view: true to cds.sql.search.mode: 'localized-view'
[cds@7.6.0] Draft: Standard Sorting Behavior for SAP Fiori List Report Floorplan
[cds@7.6.0] Use new CDS schema for validation and code completion in package.json and .cdsrc.json files
[cds@7.6.0] Media Data Streaming
- OData: Large binaries without @Core.MediaType annotation were previously returned as base64-encoded buffer. Starting from this @sap/cds version also not-annotated large binaries are ignored by OData. It is strongly recommended to annotate all large binary properties with @Core.MediaType and use it according to streaming scenarios.
- Custom Handlers: SELECT with explicitly listed SELECT.columns of type cds.LargeBinary returns them as Readable streams. Large binary columns requested implicitly by SELECT (for example, with .columns('*')) are ignored.
- Streaming API: cds.stream() and srv.stream() are deprecated and will be removed with the next major release. Use SELECT with a single cds.LargeBinary column instead. The resulting object will contain the name of the column and a stream value. For example, SELECT.one.from(E).columns(['image']).where(...) returns { image: <media stream> }.
- Backward Compatibility: To restore previous behavior use stream_compat.
[cds-mtxs@1.14.3] The temporary workaround for cds.env.requires.['cds.xt.ModelProvideService'].loadSync = true is removed. This setting won't have an effect for future versions.

[vscode-cds@7.5.1] Activate extension also for jsonc files
[cds-compiler@4.6.0] compiler:
- ON-conditions of associations with filters in calculated elements were incorrectly rewritten when included in other entities, and the filter was applied twice in some scenarios.
- redirecting an association with filter did not rewrite paths relative to the redirection target.
- Unknown type references with an explicit named type argument such as Unknown(length: 10) crashed.
[cds-compiler@4.6.0] to.edm(x):
- @Core.IsURL is not rendered in combination with @Core.MediaType (V4 only).
- No 'odata-navigation' warning for association targets annotated with @cds.autoexpose: false.
- No empty annotation in API, when a non-existent base annotation is annotated (eg. @Common.Label.@Core.Description without @Common.Label).

[cds@7.6.1] Garbage collection of draft is configured with cds.fiori.draft_deletion_timeout
[cds@7.6.0] cds.minify returned a shallow clone. When callers like 2sql cds.linked that subsequently, this left the passed-in csn in a broken, partially linked state. Now, cds.minify doesn't clone anymore, but modifies the passed in csn.

[cds@7.5.3] Recommend to use chai 4 for the time being, as chai 5 doesn't properly work yet (requires ESM, chai-as-promised not working)

              "label": "user-provided",
              "name": "myuserprovided"
          }
      },

[cds-mtxs@1.14.3] i18n translations missing in some Java setups are now correctly resolved.
[cds-mtxs@1.14.3] CSNs loaded in a worker thread are correctly linked. In earlier versions, this could lead to a stack overflow in projects having cds.requires.db.schema_evolution: false and cyclic actions such as this:
cds
```
entity C_Books as projection on Books { * } actions {
  action returnSelf() returns C_Books;
}
```
[cds-mtxs@1.14.3] Sync upgrades for tenants = * with clusterSize > 1 are working correctly.
