New in this release

• Updated instrumentation support for OkHttp to version 3.12.0

• Increase the number of available user attributes from 64 to 128

Fixed in this release

• Fixes null pointer exception during map upload when the generated map file is empty, such as when Proguard is enabled, but obfuscation is disabled using the -dontobfuscate Proguard configuration setting.

Fixed in this release

• Fixes build failure when Kotlin extensions are used
• Eliminates a race condition that could result in ANR in apps that make many concurrent network requests

Fixed in this release

• Corrects a condition where a Gradle task would block when uploading Proguard/Dexguard map files

Fixed in this release

• Removes unnecessary Proguard map file processing task

Notes

Dexguard users must upgrade to version 8.2.22 to be compatible with this release.

New in this release

• Support for the Maven plugin is now deprecated, and will be removed in version 5.21.0.
• The minimum supported SDK level (minSdkVersion) is now 14 (Android 4.0)

Fixed in this release

• Removed dependency on legacy Android Apache library, which resulted in NoClassDefFoundError exceptions when targeting Android SDK 28.
• Removed cast exception with OkHTTP2 CacheResponseBody when using Retrofit 1.9.0 with OkHttp 2.7.5 .
• Corrected mismatched UUID added to Proguard/Dexguard mapping file (the map UUID didn't match the UUID of reported crashes).
• Restored missing Dexguard lambda instrumentation.
• Corrected representation of LONG numeric attributes to prevent loss of precision (agent could not record precise timestamp attributes).
• Crashes that occur prior to successfully connecting to collector will be queued until a valid connection data token is received.
• Restored agent shutdown and final harvest when foreground services present.

Fixes NoClassDefFoundError crash due to missing Apache classes for apps targeting Android 9 (SDK versions P or 28 ). This release is only needed by apps that target SDK 28 or higher.

Improvements

• The agent will now recognize region-specific application tokens.

Fixed in this release

• Fixed problem reading from the error stream of instrumented Http/HttpsUrlConnection requests.
