Changelog 2020

August 2020

Added

[vscode-cds@2.6.0] various commands for generating preview files from a CDS file
[vscode-cds@2.6.0] Code completion proposes identifiers not yet imported in current file and generates corresponding using statement:
- user setting: minimum number of characters required to propose those identifiers (cds.completion.workspaceSymbols.minPrefixLength). Default is -1 (=off)
- user setting: limit number of global identifiers (cds.completion.workspaceSymbols.maxProposals). Default is -1 (=unlimited)
[vscode-cds@2.6.0] Code formatting: options whitespaceBeforeColon and whitespaceAfterColon are now supported inside Composition structs
[vscode-cds@2.6.0] Code formatting: support configuration of alignment of Composition structs (option alignCompositionStructToRight)
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] If the first CDS source (CDL or CSN) provided to the compiler has a namespace declaration/property, then that namespace name is put into the property namespace of the returned CSN.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] An event payload type can now be defined with a type/entity reference or projection (instead of providing the elements directly).
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] Aspects can now be included when specifying the elements of an event payload type, as it’s known for type, entity and aspect definitions.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] Projections columns can now use expressions like select items, both for entity … as projection on and extend projection … with.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] OData: array of <structure> or many <structure> is now allowed in OData V4, flat format.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] Query select items can now be declared to be virtual.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] CQL now allows to specify a join cardinality. Allowed are any combinations of
{ [ EXACT ] ONE | MANY } TO { [ EXACT ] ONE | MANY } for
{ INNER | { LEFT | RIGHT | FULL } [ OUTER ] } joins.
The cardinality is added in the for SAP HANA generated CREATE VIEW statements.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] Support the creation of unique constraints by assigning @assert.unique.<constraintName> to non-query entities or query entities annotated with @cds.persistence.table. The value of the annotation is an array of paths referring to elements in the entity. The path leaf may be an element of a scalar, structured or managed association type. Individual foreign keys or unmanaged associations cannot be accessed. In case the path points to a structured element, the unique constraint will contain all columns stemming from the structured type. In case the path points to a managed association, the unique constraint will contain all foreign key columns stemming from this managed association. For HANA a UNIQUE INVERTED INDEX and for SQLite a named unique table constraint is generated.
[cds@4.1.9] cds.PrivilegedUser, for example, for transactions with super user
[cds@4.1.7] Shortcut to class cds.ApplicationService in cds facade
[cds@4.1.7] Shortcut to class cds.DatabaseService in cds facade
[cds@4.1.7] Shortcut to class cds.RemoteService in cds facade
[cds@4.1.7] Shortcut to class cds.MessagingService in cds facade
[cds@4.1.7] Shortcut to class cds.Event as new base class of cds.Request
[cds@4.1.6] req.notify() as a new varient besides req.info(), which should display as toaster notifications on Fiori elements or other UIs.
[cds.java@1.9.0] Drafts are now garbage-collected automatically after a default period of 30 days. The period can be customized through the property cds.drafts.deletionTimeout
[cds.java@1.9.0] An OData V4 PATCH or PUT request on a nonexisting draft-enabled entity with IsActiveEntity = true can now directly create a new active entity, bypassing the draft-flow.
[cds.java@1.9.0] OData V4 $apply now supports the transformation compute (without paths)
[cds.java@1.9.0] Added an API annotation HandlerOrder to specify the order of an event handler within its registered phase.
[cds.java@1.9.0] The Messages container stored in the RequestContext is now automatically propagated to nested request contexts. A new message container can be requested for the request context, by using clearMessages() on the RequestContextRunner.
[cds.java@1.9.0] Added an API to elevate a request context to a privileged user, which bypasses all authorization checks automatically. A new request context can be elevated by using privilegedUser() on the RequestContextRunner. This privileged user can be further modified, for example to set a tenant.
[cds.java@1.9.0] The messaging adapter now emits external events as the privileged user, to ensure that authorization checks on service-level are passed.
[cds.java@1.9.0] CQN to OData transformation for remote OData queries:
- Expand definitions in the CQN query are now transformed to an OData V2/V4 $expand query option
- Orderby definitions in the CQN query are now transformed to an OData V2/V4 $orderby query option
- Limit definitions in the CQN query are now transformed to an OData V2/V4 $top/$skip query option
- Search definitions in the CQN query are now transformed to the $search query option for V4 and the SAP proprietary search query option for V2.
- CQN path expressions in from are now translated to corresponding OData V2/V4 URIs
- The types of values from the CQN statement and the result are now correctly handled based on the CDS type defined in the model.
[cds.java@1.9.0] Improved the text of many error messages to make them easier to understand
[cds.java@1.9.0] Improved the modularization capabilities of the cds-framework-spring-boot auto configurations. By default they no longer include Spring Web or Spring JDBC anymore, allowing to build Spring Boot applications without these features.

Changed

[cds-dk@3.0.0] cds watch now uses version 5 of sqlite3
[cds-dk@3.0.0] cds watch doesn’t use nodemon anymore.

You can continue using cds watch with nodemon by installing nodemon globally and setting env variable CDS_USE_NODEMON to true.
[cds-dk@3.0.0] cds add mta for Java applications now determines app details like name, version etc. based on pom.xml and no longer from package.json.
[vscode-cds@2.6.0] updated npm modules
- cds-lsp 3.5.0
- cds-compiler 1.39.0
[vscode-cds@2.5.0] now requires Visual Studio Code >=1.46
[vscode-cds@2.5.0] updated npm modules
- cds-lsp 3.4.3
- cds-compiler 1.35.0
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] CSN: The property payload of an event has been renamed to elements.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] to.hdbcds/hdi/sql:
- Messages of id “query-no-undefined” are now raised as errors.
- Aspects/types/abstract entities containing anonymous aspect compositions must not be used as types and are removed during transformation.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] OData: Update vocabularies ‘Common’, ‘UI’
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] The association to join transformation treats foreign key accesses with priority. If a foreign key of a managed association can be accessed without joins, no joins are generated. The priority handling can be turned of with option joinfk.
[cds@4.1.8] cds deploy --to sqlite can now cope with leading # comments in CSV files
[cds@4.1.8] cds version --all now includes @sap/cds-sidecar-client
[cds.java@1.9.0] The OData V4 PUT now follows the same internal semantics as PATCH, by first triggering an UPDATE event, following a CREATE event if the entity didn’t yet exist. The PUT handling takes care to fill-up unspecified elements with their default values, as long as they can’t be determined through a foreign key relation. PUT therefore doesn’t affect the full composition tree by default anymore, but only the entity that the PUT was sent to. The UPSERT event is therefore no longer used by the OData V4 adapter.
[cds.java@1.9.0] Changed HTTP status code of @mandatory and not null validations errors from 409 to 400
[cds.java@1.9.0] The name of the XSUAA system user (JWT with client credential flow) is now set to system.
[cds4j@1.12.1] Disable “unrecognized CDS element” warning during interface generation
[cds-runtime@2.1.7] Messaging: The configuration is moved to top level (before it was in credentials)
[cds-runtime@2.1.7] Messaging: The payload type is now ‘application/json’
[cds-sidecar-client@1.1.6] Login/logout: Improved logging
[cds-sidecar-client@1.1.6] Login/logout: Renamed command-line options for clarity
[cds-sidecar-client@1.1.6] Login/logout: Changed location of settings files to adhere to platform standards

[cds-compiler@1.39.0] Fix a bug in explicit JOIN cardinality CDL parsing
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] to.hdbcds/hdi/sql: Identifiers are checked and warnings are raised if the identifier exceeds a length limitation, which would result in a deployment error.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] OData: Service, entity, and element identifiers are checked and warnings are raised if an identifier isn’t compliant with the OData specification.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] to.hdbcds/hdi/sql: Correctly handle local-scope refs in on-conditions when flattening structures.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] Run checks for associations inside of many or array of only on entities and views.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] to.cdl: Events are rendered.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] to.cds: Anonymous aspect compositions are now rendered correctly.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] to.hdbcds/hdi/sql:
- Events are ignored.
- local-scope references in on-conditions are now handled correctly during flattening.
- Removed duplicate messages.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] A model with multilevel composition of <aspect> (spread across several aspect declarations, composing one another) is now processed successfully with the OData backend.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] The CSN parser supports explicit join cardinalities.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] Prefix a @assert.unique table constraint with the table name to avoid name clashes.
[cds-compiler@1.39.0] Semantic location in messages is now more precise.
[cds@4.1.8] cds.entities w/o namespace parameter now works properly when running out of a compiled model (aka csn.json aka ‘on Cloud Foundry’).
[cds@4.1.8] cds deploy --to hana now also handles SAP HANA Cloud services on trial, which are created by the hana broker (in contrast to the hanatrial broker which still provisions older SAP HANA instances).
[cds@4.1.8] cds deploy --to hana no longer uses cf marketplace, which has changed its parameters in CF CLI v7.
[cds@4.1.8] Fiori preview’s html no longer provokes Javascript errors in the SAP Fiori client.
[cds@4.1.8] For database services of kind sql the service implementation is now set correctly in the CDS configuration. Previously, sql services got a sqlite implementation even if they were set to hana in production.
[cds@4.1.8] Custom event handlers that do not register with a path (only with event and function) no longer crash the runtime
[cds@4.1.8] In Typescript typings, the API declaration for cds.load and the bootstrap event is now fixed.
[cds@4.1.7] Race condition on two parallel cds.connect to same service
[cds@4.1.7] cds deploy --no-save extends the list of files it doesn’t modify to package.json, default-env.json, and connection.properties
[cds@4.1.7] Add meaningful error message if hdi-deploy can’t be loaded — during cds deploy --to hana.
[cds@4.1.6] req.target for unbound actions/functions is now undefined again, as documented
[cds@4.1.6] Handlers registered with srv.on(<CRUD>, 'Some/path', ...) were never invoked
[cds@4.1.6] Queries to remote services via srv.on(..., ()=> other.read('Something')) weren’t sent to remote
[cds.java@1.9.0] The cds-maven-plugin doesn’t use npm / npx from local installation cache anymore, if goal install-node is skipped or not configured. In this case, a globally installed npm / npx is required and used.
[cds.java@1.9.0] The archetype now uses 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT instead of 1.0-SNAPSHOT as default version, which works better with the mbt build tool
[cds.java@1.9.0] Fixed a bug that caused the archetype to omit generating an (empty) db folder into the project.
[cds.java@1.9.0] Fixed a bug that caused an exception stating Only a single member is supported, when using more than one PlatformTransactionManager in Spring Boot applications.
[cds.java@1.9.0] Fixed a bug that caused a NullPointerException when calling an action or function, which returned a contained entity. With this fix, the OData V4 context URL for actions or functions returning an entity is now built based on entity types instead of entity sets.
[cds.java@1.9.0] Fixed a bug that caused the entity data maps to be cleared during processing in the OData V4 adapter, preventing custom code from being able to store a reference to this data without copying the map.
[cds.java@1.9.0] Fixed a bug that caused the cds-maven-plugin to determine a null working directory, in case the Maven project used an “external” parent project, not part of it’s own source tree.
[cds.java@1.9.0] Fixed a bug that caused an incorrect encoding of non-ASCII characters in sap-messages header.
[cds.java@1.9.0] Fixed a bug where key fields annotated with @Core.Computed were removed from the CQN entries when executing an insert or update statement.

July 2020

Added

[cds-dk@2.0.7] cds init supports adding samples via --add samples. See cds help init for more details.
[cds-dk@2.0.7] Most CLI commands have moved to @sap/cds-dk from @sap/cds. Make sure to install the latest version with npm i -g @sap/cds-dk.
[cds-dk@2.0.7] cds commands now log a hint to update to the latest @sap/cds if this one is still of version 3.
[cds-dk@2.0.7] New command cds login added to simplify usage of cds extend and cds activate by providing them with automatic authentication and saving project settings. Refreshes expired authentication tokens automatically. Optionally uses CF command-line client to determine login URLs and subdomains. Saves authentication data in plain-text file or desktop keyring on Linux, macOS, or Windows. The latter requires an optional Node.js module keytar to be installed.
[cds-dk@2.0.7] New command cds logout removes authentication data and optionally project settings.
[vscode-cds@2.4.2] issue reporting url pointing to https://answers.sap.com/
[vscode-cds@2.4.2] new user setting cds.completion.workspaceSymbols (default off) to add workspace symbols to code completion proposals
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Introduce option localizedLanguageFallback; if set to value "none", the localized convenience views don’t use function coalesce to select from a default text as fallback.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Allow to declare many/array of elements, parameters, and return types to be (not) null. The nullability applies to the array items of the element, not the element itself.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] New boolean option dependentAutoexposed to avoid name clashes in dependent autoexposed entities (text entities, components of managed compositions).
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] cdsc: Add toOdata version ‘v4x’ to combine { version: 'v4', odataFormat: 'structured', odataContainment: true }.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Provide semantic code completion for elements, enums, actions, and parameters in annotate and extend.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] forHana: Allow the relational comparison of structures or managed associations in an ON condition.
Both operands must be structurally compatible, that is both structures must be expandable to an identical set of leaf paths. Each leaf path must terminate on a builtin CDS scalar type. The original relational term of the form s1 op s2 is replaced by the resulting expression s1.leafpath_0 op s2.leafpath_0 (AND s1.leafpath_i op s2.leafpath_i)* with i < n leaf paths.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] forHana/toSql: A (proxy) entity representing an SAP HANA User-Defined Function or an SAP HANA Calculation View can now be annotated with @cds.persistence { udf, calcview } so that queries to these artifacts are rendered with the appropriate parameter lists. Parameters for SAP HANA Calculation Views are decorated with PLACEHOLDER."$$<id>$$". SAP HANA User-Defined Functions without arguments require an empty argument list () as part of the query source. Entities that are assigned with @cds.persistence { udf, calcview } can’t contain associations or act as association targets, even if they have no defined parameter list. Multiple assignments of @cds.persistence { table, udf, calcview } to the same entity are rejected.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData V4: Elements with type array of <scalar type> are now supported in flat mode
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Projections can now have where and group by/having clauses.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Projections can now have limit and order by clauses.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] API: add getArtifactCdsPersistenceName() and, which return the value of annotation @cds.persistence.name for the corresponding artifact/element.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Add new OData vocabulary com.sap.vocabularies.HTML5.v1
[cds@4.1.5] Common cds.service.factory — cds.serve and cds.connect now use a common cds.service.factory to construct instances of cds.Service, as well as adding custom-provided handlers and implementations. This applies the same consistent ways to register new implementations via cds.env.requires options, model annotations @impl and @kind, or the well-known .cds/.js sibling files mechanism.
[cds@4.1.5] Common cds.Service base class — cds.Service is the newly introduced common base class for all connected or provided services — that means, all service instances constructed through cds.service.factory. It provides uniform consumption APIs, as well as event handling APIs and capabilities for all services.
[cds@4.1.5] Custom cds.Service subclasses — besides providing cds.service.impl functions as of before, custom service implementations can now return subclasses of cds.Service, thereby plugging into the framework even more.
[cds@4.1.5] New srv.after('each', row => ...) — the former technique to register per-row handlers srv.after('READ', each => ...) broke when code was minified. The new method using pseudo event 'each' is minifier-safe.
[cds@4.1.5] New srv.prepend(srv => ...) — use srv.prepend(...) to register event handlers to be executed before the already registered handlers. For example, extensions of reused implementations sometimes need to use this.
[cds@4.1.5] Reflect srv.events — base class cds.Service provides a new getter srv.events to reflect on declared events in the service definition, similar to the already existing srv.entities, srv.types, and srv.operations.
[cds@4.1.5] Experimental cds.ql(req) — event handlers can now use the like of const {SELECT} = cds.ql(req) to ensure transaction-managed and tenant-isolated execution of queries, instead of srv.tx(req). Note though, that this is an experimental feature, which might change or be removed in future versions.
[cds@4.1.5] Using await in cds repl — we now support using await directly on cds repl prompt inputs. This feature is provided through Node’s –experimental-repl-await option.
[cds@4.1.5] CLI shortcut --odata <v2|v4|x4> — the newly introduced general CLI option –odata <v2/v4> acts as a shortcut to –odata-version <v2/v4>. In addition, –odata x4 acts as shortcut to –odata-version v4 –odata-format structured –odata-containement true.
[cds@4.1.5] cds build --production — builds the project using the production profile - same when NODE_ENV or CDS_ENV environment variable is set to production. This will create SAP HANA deployment artefacts if kind: "sql" has been defined.
[cds@4.1.5] cds build --for <hana|java-cf|node-cf|mtx> --opts <...> — now supports execution of auto-created or configured build tasks. Individual properties can be overwritten by passing corresponding CLI options, defaults are used otherwise. for example, cds build --for hana --dest target --opts model=[data,srv,app]. Note: The parameter options-model has been deprecated use --opts model=[...]instead.
[cds@4.1.5] The set of languages that is honored for the i18n.json language pack can now be configured through i18n.languages. Default is still all, which means the sum of language files found next to models.
[cds.java@1.8.0] New RequestContext API that allows to spawn contexts with modified user or request parameter information.
[cds.java@1.8.0] New provider API that allows to control how user or request parameter information is derived from the request.

[cds.java@1.8.0] The cds-maven-plugin now uses locations of package.json or .cdsrc.json as an indicator for the default working directory, instead of always defaulting to the root directory of the Maven project.
[cds.java@1.8.0] Support for draft fields in orderBy clause
[cds.java@1.8.0] Optimization of the number of executed statements when querying a draft enabled entity

[cds-dk@2.0.7] Improved launch.json file, which is created during cds init.
[cds-dk@2.0.7] cds add mta now creates a mta.yaml file that sets the production flag for cds build and npm install. This ensures that the SAP HANA artefacts are created if "kind": "sql" or some production profile has been configured in package.json or .cdsrc.json. Requires @sap/cds version >=4.x.
[cds-dk@2.0.7] cds init uses latest Maven Java archetype version 1.7.0 for creating Java projects.

[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData:
- Update vocabularies ‘Common’, ‘Core’, ‘ODM’.
- The default nullability for collection value properties is false, indicating that the returned collection must not contain null value entries.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] toCdl: Identifiers are now quoted with ![ and ]. Inner ] characters are escaped with ]].
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] toCdl/toSql: Function names containing nonstandard SAP HANA identifier characters are rendered case preserving and quoted if an appropriate naming mode has been set in the options.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] toCdl: String enums without a value are no longer rendered with their name’s string representation as their value.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Option beta now only works with selective feature flags. Instead of beta: true, a dictionary of <feature>: true is expected. Available feature flags are:
1. subElemRedirections
2. keyRefError
3. aspectCompositions
4. odataProxies
5. uniqueconstraints
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData V4: Unmanaged associations/compositions with a target cardinality of exactly one (that is [1..1]) are rendered as edmx:NavigationProperty with attribute Nullable="false"
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData: On-condition checks are now performed when generating OData as well.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] SQLite: The property length for string parameters isn’t longer restricted to 5000 characters.

[cds@4.1.5] Most CLI commands have moved to @sap/cds-dk. Make sure to install the latest version with npm i -g @sap/cds-dk.
[cds@4.1.5] Default OData version in cds configuration is now v4. For Node.js projects and Java projects using new stack the cds configuration of odata.version = 'v4' is no longer required. For Java projects using old Java stack, OData v2 will still be used.
[cds@4.1.5] Always do await cds.connect.to() — in former versions cds.connect.to() returned some magic thenables, meant to ease the Promise Hell; now it always returns plain-standard Promises. Likely you never used this undocumented former behavior, but in case: Just ensure to always call cds.connect with await.
[cds@4.1.5] Deprecated cds.connect() — please prefer cds.connect.to('db') instead, which has the same effect but is more in line with the notion of potentially working with multiple database services.
[cds@4.1.5] Deprecated cds.hana.syntax configuration. Use cds.hana.deploy-format=hdbtable instead to switch deployment from hdbcds to hdbtable for SAP HANA Cloud.
[cds@4.1.5] Faster generation of hdbtabledata files from csv data. It no longer tries to check the existence of element or column names. Such checks are anyways done during SAP HANA deployment. This behavior is now symmetrical to SQLite deployment.
[cds@4.1.5] Removed legacy cds build system — the fallback using cds.features.build.legacy is no longer supported.
[cds@4.1.5] cds deploy --to hana changes kind to hana only if it isn’t already sql.
[cds@4.1.5] cds build — does no longer create service metadata for the UI service binding by default. For SAP Web IDE Full-Stack compatibility, a corresponding metadata.xml is still generated. A fiori build task has to be defined otherwise.
[cds@4.1.5] Consistent default naming scheme for applications and services deployed to CF across the following cds commands build, deploy, , and add. For an application named myapp the SAP HANA deployer app name is myapp-db-deployer, the SAP HANA DB service name is myapp-db. cds build now generates the application manifest file with a different name manifest.yml.
[cds@4.1.5] cds build creates hana build results only if either a corresponding build task has been configured or if kind hana or kind sql has been defined. A production build is required for the latter. A fallback is used for Web IDE full stack and legacy build configs.
[cds@3.35.0] The new compiler implementation, a.k.a SNAPI, is now the default. Can be disabled with cds.features.snapi=false.
[cds@3.34.3] Faster generation of hdbtabledata files from csv data. It no longer tries to check the existence of element or column names. Such checks are anyways done during SAP HANA deployment. This behavior is now symmetrical to SQLite deployment.
[cds@3.34.2] Use cds.hana.deploy-format=hdbtable instead of cds.hana.syntax to switch deployment from hdbcds to hdbtable for SAP HANA Cloud.
[cds@3.34.2] cds run now supports relative dataSource URLs in SAP UI5 manifests again, so that UI5 apps can be served w/o approuter. This support is only active in development mode.
[cds@3.34.2] cds deploy --to hana changes kind to hana only if it isn’t already sql
[cds.java@1.8.0] CdsRuntime.runInRequestContext() has been deprecated and replaced by CdsRuntime.requestContext().
[cds.java@1.8.0] CdsRuntime.runInChangeSetContext() has been deprecated and replaced by CdsRuntime.changeSetContext()
[cds.java@1.8.0] For an OData query with $count option the inline count must be specified in the result. In the previous version, if no inline count was contained in the result, the row count was used, which could have resulted in wrong data.
[cds.java@1.8.0] Removed NPM registry configuration from the archetype, to prevent overriding custom values, specified by developers.
[cds.java@1.8.0] Fields annotated with @cds.on.insert are preserved in the draft when editing a draft enabled entity.
[cds.java@1.8.0] Some error codes were incorrect and have been corrected: The codes ranging from 40008 to 40017 have been changed to 400008 to 400017 respectively, to prevent conflicts in error codes in the future.
[cds.java@1.8.0] The ServiceException.getLocalizedMessage() is only capable of determining the correct locale from the request, if an active RequestContext exists. If no active RequestContext exists the new method ServiceException.getLocalizedMessage(Locale) can be used to explicitly set a locale. The requests locale can be obtained from the CdsRuntime using runtime.getProvidedParameterInfo().getLocale()
[cds.java@1.8.0] XSUAA user names aren’t normalized to lower case by default anymore (property cds.security.xsuaa.normalizeUserNames). XSUAA delivers stable case-sensitive user names now.
[cds4j@1.12.0] Disable “unrecognized CDS element” warning during interface generation
[cds-foss@2.0.0] Bumped dependency versions
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] Streamlined req.reject/error/info(code, msg, target, args): takes four individual params (number, string, string, array) or one object
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] Changed behavior by handler registration: – Handlers registered with entity = ‘*’ aren’t called by unbound events anymore. – Handlers registered without entity aren’t called by bound events anymore. – Special case: Handlers registered in form .before/on/after('*', handler) are called by bound and unbound events.
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] Expanding association from draft-enabled entity to draft enabled entities always provides active version of the expanded entity.
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] If you export a function in an init.js file, it will be called with the primary database and its result is awaited.
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] REST: Since the service is now based on the cds.Service base class, all convenience functions (create, post, etc.) are streamlined.
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] Messaging: Only one queue per app is created, as opposed to one queue per app and external service.
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] Messaging: You can now directly connect to the (technical) messaging service through await cds.connect.to('messaging'), no topic names will be generated here.
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] Messaging: If you want to link your own or external services to messaging, you need to model your events in CDS.
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] Messaging: If you want to provide custom topics for modeled events, you need add the @topic annotation to the event.
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] Messaging: The prefix option in the service’s credentials is prepended to events, which have a @topic annotation.

[cds-runtime@2.1.0] Messaging: The syntax to emit events with headers changed:

srv.emit({ event: 'yourEvent',
           data: { some: 'data' },
           headers: { some: 'headers' }})

[cds-runtime@2.1.0] Messaging: The default file for file-based-messaging is ~/.cds-msg-box.
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] Streamlined handler registration: srv.before/on/after(<event>, <entity>?, <handler>)
- Event and handler are mandatory, entity must be omitted if unbound action/function (CREATE, READ, UPDATE, DELETE are considered to be bound)
- Event and entity may be arrayed
- srv.before/on/after(*, <handler>) matches all as shorthand
[cds-runtime@2.1.0] INSERT statements return an object or array of objects (in case of bulk) with the number of affected rows as result of valueOf(), as well as the keys of the inserted entities:
```
const res = await srv.run(INSERT.into('Books').entries([{ ID: 1, title: 'one' }, { ID: 2, title: 'two' }]))
res > 1 // > true
res.keys // > [{ ID: 1 }, { ID: 2 }]
```
[cds-runtime@2.0.3] on() function for joins doesn’t support the simple conditions like on(x, =, y) anymore. Only fluent expressions and object predicates are supported.
[cds-runtime@2.0.2] CQN returned for req.query changed — for requests with path expressions the returned CQN of req.query is changed to a simplified format. For GET /Authors(150)/books the CQN contains the path in .from instead of an exists clause in .where.
```
{ SELECT:  {  from: { "ref": [
      {
        "id": "AdminService.Authors",
        "where": [ { "val": 150 } ]
      },
    "books"
    ] } } }
```
[cds-runtime@2.0.2] Authorizations as whitelist: if any restrictions exist for the target, all not explicitly allowed operations are forbidden (for example, @restrict: [{ grant: 'READ', ... }] -> everything but READ is forbidden for all, including bound actions and functions)
[cds-runtime@2.0.2] Applicable @requires and @restrict definitions concatenated by AND
[cds-runtime@2.0.2] Reference to undefined XSUAA user attribute in @restrict.where results in forbidden
[cds-runtime@2.0.2] req.event for unbound actions and functions is provided without service prefix
[cds-runtime@2.0.2] Increased logging in production (temporarily until revised logging concept is implemented)
[cds-runtime@2.0.2] cds.serve(..., { passport: [...] } -> cds.serve(..., { auth: [...] }
[cds-runtime@2.0.1] Passport strategy whitelist: mock and JWT
[cds-runtime@2.0.1] Authentication not needed for calls to a service’s root or metadata endpoints
[cds-runtime@2.0.1] Support for “public” entities and actions (that means, no restrictions) in services without @requires but other entities and/or actions with @restrict
[cds-runtime@2.0.0] Update major version number
[cds-runtime@1.2.0] Slightly improved performance for $expand
[cds-runtime@1.2.0] Return key values (single key only) of created entries instead of number of affected rows
[cds-runtime@1.2.0] Annotations @cds.onInsert and @cds.onUpdate ignore values from the request (see Managed Data for more details)
[cds-runtime@1.2.0] Processing of read-only values moved to initial before handler
[cds-runtime@1.2.0] Aligned handling of virtual, computed, read-only, immutable with java runtime
[cds-runtime@1.2.0] Allow deep insert on to one association with non-key property, the non-key property is silently ignored
[cds-sidecar-client@1.1.6] Login/logout: Improved logging
[cds-sidecar-client@1.1.6] Login/logout: Renamed command-line options for clarity
[cds-sidecar-client@1.1.6] Login/logout: Changed location of settings files to adhere to platform standards

Fixed

[cds-dk@2.0.8] Fixed cds add mta for java projects. The Spring Cloud Profile is set by default for Java apps in order to enable the SAP HANA service binding, otherwise the sqlite db would still be used at runtime. The environment variable JBP_CONFIG_RESOURCE_CONFIGURATION required by the classic Java runtime has been removed.
[cds-dk@2.0.7] Fixed cds import to support imports from symlinked sources
[cds-dk@2.0.7] Fixing bug in cds init and cds add when using multiple features separated by comma.

[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Properly consider targets of compositions in mixins to be autoexposed.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Uniformly limit propagation of @cds.autoexposed, that means, there isn’t inheritance from a query source navigating along an association. Previously, compiling a compiled model could lead to new autoexposed entities.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData:
- V2: Distribute various @sap specific annotations to the entity container.
- Always set attribute Nullable on properties of type Collection().
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Don’t dump with illegal references in explicit on conditions of redirections; properly report them via error messages.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] forHana: Correctly flatten managed associations as foreign keys used in the definition. of another managed association.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData: Don’t render aspects as edm.ComplexType.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] parseCdl: Fix missing extensions in files that extend unknown services/contexts.

[cds-compiler@1.35.0] to.cdl: Aspects are now correctly rendered as aspects and not as types
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] SAP HANA/SQLite: Correctly handle already resolved types when a cds.linked CSN is passed in
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] SAP HANA/SQLite: Ensure that all elements in a Draft are nonvirtual
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] An error is emitted if parameters in functions/actions have a default value as it isn’t yet supported. For example by using type of E:element where element has a default value.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData V2: Derived scalar types aren’t rendered as <edmx:TypeDefinition>, so no annotation assignments to such carriers must be rendered.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] SAP HANA/SQLite: Fixed a bug when flattening structured elements - instead of a human-readable error, an exception was thrown.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] doc comments in CDL now support Windows-style line breaks (CRLF). They’re replaced with \n in CSN.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] toCdl no longer renders a * column if no columns are used in the original source.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Types that have both type and items/elements properties in CSN are now checked to avoid mismatches if an unstructured / nonarrayed type is referenced but items/elements exists.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData:
- Correctly render CRLF and LF to in EDMX
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Memory usage improvement - compile messages with id ref-undefined-excluding uses much less memory.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] SAP HANA/SQL: Validate ON conditions of mixin association definitions in all subqueries
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData V2: Assign various @sap annotations to the <edmx:EnitySet> and <edmx:AssociationSet> if such annotations are assigned to CDS entities or associations.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData V4 Structured: Omit foreign keys of managed associations that establish the containment relationship to a container, if this association was declared to be primary key.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData: Warn about noninteger enums as they aren’t supported by OData, yet.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Warn about string values in integer enums and vice versa.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData:
- Render vocabulary <edmx:Reference> and <edmx:Include> if vocabulary namespace was used.
- Reduce memory consumption in EDM Renderer.
- Render annotations for navigation properties if association is annotated with @cds.api.ignore: true.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Memory usage improvement - compile messages don’t inherit from Error anymore.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] SAP HANA types in annotation assignments work again.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] SAP HANA/SQL: Correctly handle temporal in conjunction with namespaces.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Fix a bug in Association to Join translation that prevents exposing managed associations via subqueries.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] The CSN val property is now allowed in enum element extensions. Such CSN can be generated using the parseCdl mode and it’s now compilable.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Again allow negative values as enum values, fixing a regression introduced with v1.24.6.
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] OData: Correctly handle associations in arrayed elements (keyword many).
[cds-compiler@1.35.0] Annotation assignment checks now recognize SAP HANA types.
[cds@4.1.5] Fiori preview is now working again with the latest version of SAP UI5.
[cds@4.1.5] Use latest SAP CommonCryptoLib help — when SAP CommonCryptoLib is missing during cds deploy --to hana.
[cds@4.1.5] sql_mapping is only written to csn.json if the classic Java runtime and no default naming is used.
[cds@4.1.5] Fiori dev support in cds run now also honors /v2 URLs. These are installed by default by the @sap/cds-odata-v2-adapter-proxy.
[cds@4.1.5] npm scripts that wrap around cds-dk commands like cds watch now also work on Windows. Previously they couldn’t find the cds command.
[cds@4.1.5] When extracting the base model of a multi-tenant application cds build now ensures that only files having project scope are copied, a warning is logged otherwise.
[cds@4.1.5] cds build now no longer crashes if exactly one custom language is given in options.lang of the java-cf build task.
[cds@4.1.5] cds compile now fails with a non-zero exit code in case of compilation errors.
[cds@3.34.2] The UI.Identification annotation for sap.common.CodeList got a correct value, pointing to its name element.
[cds@3.34.2] Configuration requires.<foo>.credentials.destination is now preserved again when running with VCAP_SERVICES. In version 3.34.1, it was cleared.
[cds@3.34.2] Entities annotated with @cds.persistence.skip:if-unused (like sap.common.Languages) now again are skipped when compiling to SAP HANA output. This got broken in previous versions when using the new compiler APIs.
[cds@3.34.2] sql_mapping is again written to csn.json as it’s required by classic Java runtime.

[cds-compiler@1.26.2] OData:
- Add new OData vocabularies com.sap.vocabularies.Graph.v1 and com.sap.vocabularies.ODM.v1
- With option --odata-containment, parent association and inferred key elements for composition of <aspect> as well as inferred keys of _texts entities aren’t rendered.

[odata-server@1.7.0] support for navigation properties in complex properties

Changed

[cds.java@1.5.1] Reverted behavioral changes of PATCH, introduced with 1.5.0. Responses to PATCH request default to return=representation again, if no Prefer header is explicitly set.
[cds.java@1.5.0] The DRAFT_EDIT event now triggers UPDATE instead of an UPSERT event on the service to activate the edited draft. Event handlers currently registered on UPSERT therefore need to be registered on the UPDATE event as well.
[cds.java@1.5.0] Elements annotated with @cds.on.insert or @cds.on.update (managed aspect) are fully read-only on CDS-Service level. In addition, the PersistenceService only sets new values for these elements, if the key isn’t yet present in the data map.
[cds.java@1.5.0] The OData V4 query option $count=true is now handled using Select.inlineCount(). This ensures that READ event handlers aren’t triggered twice (once for reading the entities and once for calculating the count), in case $count=true is combined with $skip or $top.
[cds.java@1.5.0] Keys listed in the OData V4 URL aren’t propagated to the query map (context.getParameterInfo().getQueryParameter("key")) anymore, but should be accessed via the CQN Analyzer now: CqnAnalyzer.create(context.getModel()).analyze(context.getCqn().ref()).targetKeys().get("key")
[cds.java@1.5.0] By default an OData V4 PATCH request doesn’t return the updated entity in the response anymore. Set the request header Prefer: return=representation to ensure that the entity is returned.

The key property is removed from all other elements in the texts entity and the annotation assignment @cds.odata.v4.ignore as described in Version 1.20.0 is reverted. If the element ID_texts already exists, an appropriate warning is raised and no texts entity is created.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Introduce ![identifier body] in the CDL source for delimited identifiers. (The ! is inspired by ABAP’s identifier tag, [] by the delimited identifier syntax in Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase; we can’t use [] alone, because brackets are used for filter conditions.)

[cds@3.30.0] cds.env now also loads from .env files in properties format

[cds@3.30.0] cds.resolve/load('*') resolves or loads all models in a project including those for required services. It’s controlled and configurable through cds.env.folders and .roots. Try this in cds repl launched from your project root to see that in action:

  cds.env.folders         // = folders db, srv, app by default
  cds.env.roots           // + schema and services in cwd
  cds.resolve('*',false)  // + models in cds.env.requires
  cds.resolve('*')        // > the resolved existing files

[cds@3.30.0] Added cds.debug(<id>) as a convenient helper for debug output controlled by process.env.DEBUG. For example, use it as follows:
```
  const DEBUG = cds.debug('my-module')
  DEBUG && DEBUG ('my debug info:', foo, ...)
```
```
  > DEBUG=my-module cds run
```

[cds@3.30.0] Added cds.error(<msg>) as a convenient helper for throwing errors whose stack traces start from the actual point of invocation. For example, use it as follows:

  const {error} = cds
  if (...) throw error `Something's wrong with ${whatever}`
  const foo = bar || error `Bar is missing!` // short circuit exits

Changed

[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Association to Join Transformation:
- Validate paths of an expression in the projection to be compliant with the ON condition path constraints if such an expression is used in a mixin.
- Reject recursive or non-bijective $self expressions.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Reject casting of a structured select item to a different type.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] OData: Update vocabularies Capabilities, Common, UI, Validation
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] OData:
- Lower message for unknown vocabulary annotations from warning to info.
- Lower message for @Analytics.Measure expects @Aggregation.default from warning to info.
- Remove empty EntityContainer and raise warning if Schema is empty.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Signal a warning for all uses of "identifier body" in the CDL source, as most uses of double-quotes in actual CDS models were likely meant for strings. (Yes, we don’t adhere strictly to the lexical rules of the SQL Standard with this change…)
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Issue a warning for an aspect definition without {…}.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] In the CSN, aspect definitions have a $syntax property with value "aspect". A future incompatible change will set the kind of aspect definitions to value "aspect".
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Removed old CSN frontend and the corresponding options: stdJsonParser and oldCsnFrontend.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Fix check for arguments and filters in references (might introduce new errors).
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Issue an error if explicit keys are provided when redirecting unmanaged associations.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] File paths given to cdsc, which contain symbolic links are now resolved before being passed to the compiler.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Annotating elements with @Core.Computed now always overwrites computed value; also expressions in parentheses will now induce to set @Core.Computed to true.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Update OData vocabulary UI
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Increase the length of the element locale in generated _texts entities from String(5) to String(14).
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Don’t overwrite annotations with generated annotations (such as shortcuts and other convenience annotations).
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] In the sql, hdi, and hdbcds backends with SQL dialect HANA, $user.id is translated to SESSION_CONTEXT('APPLICATIONUSER'), not SESSION_CONTEXT('XS_APPLICATIONUSER') anymore. As with the SQL dialect SQLite, it can now be configured.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] The client tool cdsc now prints a source excerpt for each message by default; use cdsc --no-message-context to get the previous behavior.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Increase severity to Warning of messages for a situation where the compiler can’t calculate an on condition / foreign keys automatically.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Issues warnings for annotation definitions, as their CSN representation will be moved from definitions into a new property vocabularies in a future change.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] OData:
- Update vocabularies: Analytics, Common, Communication, Core, PersonalData, UI
- Set reference base URI for SAP Vocabularies to https://sap.github.io/odata-vocabularies/vocabularies
[cds-lsp@3.1.0] code formatting
- improve alignment of types, values, and preceding : or = operators
[cds-lsp@3.0.0] code completion
- more snippet variants for extend
- no longer differ entity suggestions between within service or outside
- base types with parameters now suggested as simply keyword w/o params and additional suggestion as snippet (param names now enclosed in < >)
- changed label indicator for snippets from <> to ellipsis
[cds-lsp@3.0.0] code formatting
- rework formatting options: add/remove options according to relevance, rename/group options for clarity, change default behavior in some cases
- various improvements, including in case statements and bracketed conditions
[cds.java@1.3.0] The XSUAA service configuration is now only enabled, when an XSUAA service binding is available. With this change, we don’t prevent Spring from configuring its default security config and default user anymore.
[cds.java@1.3.0] The Spring Boot Plugin in applications generated by the archetype now generates the executable JAR with classifier “exec”
[cds.java@1.2.0] Timestamps are now written to the database in UTC instead of the timezone of the application.
[cds.java@1.2.0] Changed incorrect http status 400 Bad Request to 404 Not Found for requests targeting a nonexisting entity
[cds4j@1.7.0] Store timestamps on SQLite as ISO 8601 Strings
[cds4j@1.7.0] Truncate Instants for DateTime and Timestamp
[cds@3.30.0] This version brings a major refactoring and streamlining of service runtime implementations, which stays fully compatible regarding all documented APIs but in case you used internal not documented (non-)APIs, you should know these:
- Removed undocumented features Annotation @source from models loaded for runtime Property cds.serve.app → use cds.app instead Property source from CSN entity/view definition objects
  
  It’s unlikely that you ever used these undocumented internal features at all. In case you did, this should never have been done and you should fix that asap.
[cds@3.30.0] Deprecated features (→ might get removed in upcoming versions)
- Property cds.session → use cds.db instead
- Property cds.options → use cds.db.options instead
- Property cds.unfold → use cds.compile instead
- Property cds.config → use cds.env instead
  
  These properties actually were duplicates to the mentioned alternatives.
[cds@3.30.0] cds run and cds watch have been reimplemented as convenience shortcuts to cds serve, which acts as the central orchestrator for bootstrapping now. (→ see cds run ? or cds watch ? to learn more)
[cds@3.30.0] cds serve now optionally bootstraps from project-local ./server.js or ./srv/server.js, if exist, thus giving more control while still benefitting from cds serve’s intrinsic support for options like --in-memory or --with-mocks.
[cds@3.30.0] cds serve now uses cds.load('*') to load a single effective model once, assigned to cds.model, and reused for db as well as all provided and required services . As that avoids loading models redundantly, it drastically improves both, bootstrapping performance as well as memory consumption.
[cds@3.30.0] cds deploy doesn’t (have to) register the default models to package.json anymore. For example, unlike before, cds deploy -2 sqlite will merely add an entry: db:{kind:'sqlite'}, without an additional model property anymore.
[cds@3.30.0] cds deploy --to hana doesn’t create connection.properties file any longer, but only modify existing one
[cds@3.30.0] modifiedAt and modifiedBy from @sap/cds/common
- Are now mutable for OData, that means, no longer carry the @Core.Immutable: true annotation.
- Are set by the Node.js runtime whenever the respective row was modified, that means, also during CREATE operations.
[cds@3.30.0] Support for cds init is now moved to @sap/cds-dk.
[cds@3.21.0] In development mode, the mock authorization strategy is automatically activated with two fake users alice and bob, which allows for out-of-the-box testing of @requires annotations. This means that, unlike before, the JWT authorization strategy needs to be activated explicitly (through {auth: { passport: { strategy: 'mock' }}}. In production, no change is required.
[cds@3.21.0] You might see a MODULE_NOT_FOUND error for @sap/xsenv in case you use the JWT strategy but have not bound any xsuaa service. In this case either bind such a service instance, add the @sap/xsenv dependency, or use a different strategy like mock. The trigger of this error is @sap/xssec 2.2.4 no longer requiring @sap/xsenv.
[cds@3.21.0] Renovated and streamlined cds init. It prints a hint now if it’s called with old-style parameters, as well as that it wants to be used from @sap/cds-dk. Check out cds help init for more.
[cds@3.21.0] Removed the experimental --args parameter of cds compile. This turned out to be cumbersome to use in shells. Replacement is the standard configuration mechanism, for example, use an environment variable CDS_FOO_BAR to activate option cds.foo.bar.
[cds-dk@1.6.0] cds add mta now creates resources for SAP HANA with an explicit service type hana. If deploying to trial landscapes, this needs to be changed manually to hanatrial.
[cds-dk@1.5.0] cds init only supports new syntax. See cds init help for more info.
[cds-dk@1.5.0] cds init now supports adding template hana to Java projects.
[cds-services@1.25.0] use odata-server 1.5.2
[cds-services@1.24.0] use odata-server 1.5.1
[cds-services@1.23.0] Direct access to auto-exposed entities in draft case
[cds-services@1.23.0] Errors normalized based on OData v4 standard
[cds-services@1.23.0] Messages (that means, header sap-messages) normalized based on Fiori standard
[cds-services@1.23.0] Referential integrity checks are now executed before the commit
[cds-services@1.23.0] Result of create and update queries is read from the data source to include computed values (update: root only, that means, w/o compositions, etc.)
[cds-services@1.22.0] Improve error messages for return type validation of custom operations
[cds-services@1.22.0] Draft removal is handled in onDraftActivateEvent instead of onDraftActivate
[cds-messaging@1.7.0] Updated version number for public release
[cds-messaging@1.6.0] You can no longer set the namespace outside of the credentials block
[cds-rest@1.5.0] Updated version number for public release
[cds-rest@1.4.0] Version of @sap/cloud-sdk-core pinned to 1.15.1
[cds-rest@1.4.0] Version of @sap/cloud-sdk-util pinned to 1.15.1
[cds-sql@1.23.0] Convert all search queries using contains to like
[cds-sql@1.22.0] Managed fields aren’t removed anymore if they don’t belong to operation (for example, modifiedAt in INSERT, createdAt in UPDATE)
[cds-sql@1.22.0] null is a valid value for a managed field (e. g. if null is provided for @cds.on.insert, null will be inserted to DB)
[cds-hana@1.23.0] Use like instead of contains fuzzy search for $search queries
[cds-hana@1.22.0] SESSION_CONTEXT(‘APPLICATIONUSER’) instead of SESSION_CONTEXT(‘XS_APPLICATIONUSER’)
[cds-hana@1.22.0] @sap/hana-client is preferred over hdb

Fixed

[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Raise a warning if the element of the forward association and the element of the query source don’t originate from the same defining entity. Raise an error if the element of the forward association can’t be found in the query source or is ambiguous.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Correctly create localization views with compiled model as input; it was wrong previously in a model with a high view hierarchy.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Automatically calculate keys also for published secondary managed associations, that means, associations in a select column, which is reached by following another association. The compiler doesn’t yet calculate the on condition of published secondary unmanaged associations – provide it explicitly.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Entities/Views without elements are now detected correctly.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Fix check for action/function parameters in services.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] OData: Correctly apply annotations to parameters.
[cds-compiler@1.23.2] In the sql, hdi and hdbcds backends, correctly ignore contexts containing just actions.

[cds-compiler@1.23.2] Avoid infloop for cyclic dependencies on select items with explicit redirections.
[cds-lsp@3.1.2] in some cases csn files with .json extension where not detected and thus workspace symbols were incomplete
[cds-lsp@3.1.1] formatting options were taken from homedir instead of preferring from project

- fix positioning of brace { after annotation if requested to be kept in previous line
- fix bug where token starting with $ was merged
[cds-lsp@3.1.0] in the past file changes via watcher were automatically sent for all files in VSCode. In recent versions of VSCode this has changed to only sent files supported by language server type (cds). A fix was made to dynamically register for relevant side-files like package.json, .cdsrc.json, all supported translation file formats, ignore files to keep track of changed environment
[cds-lsp@3.0.0] code formatting
- fix alignment of annotations in views
- safely identify unreserved keywords
[cds.java@1.3.0] Handle more timestamp formats on SQLite-based databases: This fixes interoperability issues with cds deploy and the Node.js stack. The suggested timestamp format to be used in CSVs is ISO 8601 (2020-02-05T07:43:40Z)
[cds.java@1.3.0] The sap-messages header is now also written on 204 No Content responses.

[cds@3.31.1] Removed npm-shrinkwrap.json
[cds@3.31.0] cds compile --to hdbtabledata no longer crashes with _texts.csv files referring to a non-localized entity
[cds@3.31.0] cds build/all adds app folder to the list of model folders for hana database builds. Draft tables are missing if the corresponding annotation model is missing.
[cds@3.30.0] There was a bug in that caused a service names FooBarV2 to erroneously be mapped to mount point /foo-barv2 instead of /foo-bar-v2 as intended and was the case before. → in case you started a project in this interims phase and had a service name with that pattern you may encounter this fix as an incompatible change, but it’s actually reverting to the former compatible way.
[cds@3.30.0] cds.env erroneously overrode profiled entries depending on properties order
[cds@3.30.0] Fiori preview now uses latest version of SAP UI5 again
[cds@3.30.0] cds deploy verifies returned service key to ensure that target service isn’t of type managed.
[cds@3.21.3] Fiori preview no longer catches service URLs with an arbitrary prefix (for example, /foo/browse instead of just /browse).
[cds@3.21.1] Fiori preview no longer crashes since it’s pinned to SAP UI5 1.72.3. Actual cause still needs to be investigated.
[cds@3.21.0] SELECT.one/distinct(Fool,[...]) failed when passing an array for columns as argument two
[cds-dk@1.6.0] cds add mta now creates valid configuration for uaa and auditlog resources.
