January 2025 ​

Added ​

  • [cds-dk@8.7.0] cds watch supports --exclude and --include options to specify additional paths to include or exclude. Alternatively, set cds.watch.[include|exclude] in your CDS config.

  • [cds-dk@8.7.0] cds import now updates configuration for Java projects (in application.yaml etc.)

  • [cds-dk@8.7.0] cds import --config now also accepts a string with flat key-value pairs (like --config "credentials.destination=foo"), which is easier to write than the current JSON string (--config "{\"credentials\": {\"destination\": \"foo\"}}").

  • [cds-dk@8.7.0] cds debug now supports Java applications, both local and remote.

  • [cds-dk@8.7.0] cds import can now import an odata-V4 file with external dependencies(odata-V4 file). Dependencies has to be provided with -d/--dependencies option and must not have any external dependencies.

  • [cds-compiler@5.7.0] Analyze enum symbols like #ENUM_SYMB; support starts at the following places:

    • used as sole default value or select column expression if the element/column has a specified enum type, or
    • used as sole value (in parentheses) of an annotation assignment if there is a definition for that annotation having an enum type;
    • effects in compiler: complain if enum symbol is undefined
    • effects in the IDE with an upcoming version of cds-lsp when compiler option newParser is set: offer code completion and hover information,
    • effects in backends like to.sql (and potentially runtimes): enum symbol is replaced by corresponding string/integer value when appropriate.

  • [cds-compiler@5.7.0] for.seal: Process foreign key annotations similar to to.edm(x)

  • [cds.java@3.7.1] Instance based authorization can now reject CREATE/UPDATE with 400 via option cds.security.authorization.instance-based.check-input-data

  • [cds.java@3.7.0] Added possibility to enable default translations for validation error messages by setting cds.errors.defaultTranslations.enabled to true. These translated error messages avoid references to technical entity or element names and solely rely on the message's target.

  • [cds.java@3.7.0] If cds.security.authorization.instance-based.customEvents is disabled, instance based authorization can now reject draftEdit events with 403 instead of filtering via option cds.security.authorization.instance-based.reject-selected-unauthorized-entity as well.

  • [cds.java@3.7.0] Added debug logs when calculating object key for Kafka messages.

  • [cds.java@3.7.0] The goal add of the cds-maven-plugin supports adding ORD integration to a CAP Java project.

  • [cds.java@3.7.0] The exposed ORD endpoint of the CAP Java application is now also shown on the index page.

  • [cds.java@3.7.0] The dev-dashboard can now list all registered event handlers for application services.

  • [cds.java@3.7.0] Added capabilities to selectively remove messages from the current RequestContext's message container with the new method Messages.removeIf(Predicate<Message>).

  • [cds.java@3.7.0] OData V4 protocol adapter now supports implicit parameter aliases for function calls.

  • [cds.java@3.7.0] The goal add of the cds-maven-plugin supports adding a CAP Java Plugin, a Maven dependency and a Remote Service configuration to a CAP Java project.

  • [cds.java@3.7.0] Default outboxes can now be disabled per service by setting cds.messaging.services.<key>.outbox.enabled to false.

  • [cds4j@3.7.0] Allow to use predicates in the select list

  • [cds4j@3.7.0] Support typed refs via CQL.entity(ENTITY, ref)

  • [cds@8.7.0] Allow usage of tar library (https://www.npmjs.com/package/tar) as a workaround to solve remaining issues by extension build on Windows. The tar library should be installed by app developers.

  • [cds@8.7.0] cds.ql supports limit with an optional offset, e.g. limit(10, 5)

  • [cds@8.7.0] Basic support for new built-in type cds.Map

  • [cds@8.7.0] Normalization of DateTime and Timestamp payloads in new OData adapter

  • [cds-mtxs@2.5.0] Running jobs time out after 90 minutes by default. This is configurable using cds.requires.multitenancy.jobs.heartbeatAge and cds.requires.multitenancy.jobs.heartbeatInterval.

  • [cds-mtxs@2.5.0] Extension linter now optionally checks extensions including existing extensions. This can be enabled using

    jsonc
    "requires": {
  "cds.xt.ExtensibilityService": {
    "check-existing-extensions": true
  }
}

    This is not available for the extension project build.

  • [cds-mtxs@2.5.0] Warning when using legacy options in cds.mtx.

  • [cds.java@3.7.0] Fixed a bug, causing ApplicationService calls within @Before handlers (e.g. originating from @assert.target) to unexpectedly throw an exception, if error messages were written before.
