Apple a lansat de cateva minute iOS 7.1 beta 2, la aproximativ 3 saptamani de la lansarea primei versiuni beta a viitoarei actualizari majore a iOS 7 pe care compania din Cupertino o testeaza, asa cum obisnuieste, impreuna cu dezvoltatorii de aplicatii inainte de a o oferi tuturor utilizatorilor. Noua versiune a iOS aduce cateva corecturi de probleme, imbunatatiri ale performantelor si, asa cum era de asteptat, mici modificari de design. Dezvoltatorii de aplicatii si cei care au inregistrat UDID-ul terminalului in contul unui dezvoltator vor putea descarca noua versiune beta, restul utilizatorilor fiind nevoiti sa astepte pana cand Apple va publica actualizarea.
Actualizare: Iata ce noutati aduce iOS 7.1 beta 2 (articol actualizat)
In cazul fiecarei versiuni beta a iOS (sau OS X), compania Apple trimite dezvoltatorilor notitele lansarii prin care ii anunta pe acestia care dintre problemele semnalate au fost reparate, ce a fost adus nou si ce erori cunoscute exista in versiunea iOS tocmai lansata. iOS 7.1 beta 2 nu face nicio exceptie de la regula, iar mai jos aveti notitele lansarii (change log-ul) iOS 7.1 beta 2. Inca de la inceput putem remarca faptul ca lista de mai jos este mai scurta decat cea publicata impreuna cu iOS 7.1 beta 1, spre exemplu, lucru care ne poate face sa credem ca lansarea versiunii finale se aproprie de noi.
Notes and Known Issues
The following issues relate to using iOS SDK 7.1 beta 2 to develop code.
Bluetooth
Known Issue
32-bit apps running on a 64-bit device cannot attach to BTServer.
CFNetwork
Notes
A compatibility behavior has been added to address an issue where some web servers would send the wrong Content-Length value for “Content-Encoding: gzip” content. Previously,
NSURLConnection
andNSURLSession
would send a “network connection was lost” / NSURLErrorNetworkConnectionLost (-1005) error in this situation.The compatibility behavior applies only if the Content-Length value exactly matches the expanded gzip’d content. It won’t apply for “off by 1” or similar miscounting.
Crash Logs
Fixed in iOS 7.1 beta 2
Crash logs now appear in Diagnostics & Usage Data in Settings.
iCloud
Known Issue
If you create a new iCloud account during setup assistant, you may encounter an error when trying to enable iCloud Keychain.
Workaround: Select Setup Keychain Later in setup assistant, then enable iCloud Keychain in Settings.
iTunes
Fixed in iOS 7.1 beta 2
Loading a large iTunes Match library should no longer take an especially long time to load.
Music App
Known Issue
Audiobooks fail to play.
Safari
Notes
A property, minimal-ui, has been added for the viewport meta tag key that allows minimizing the top and bottom bars on the iPhone as the page loads. While on a page using minimal-ui, tapping the top bar brings the bars back. Tapping back in the content dismisses them again.
For example, use <meta name=”viewport” content=”width=1024, minimal-ui”>.
UIKit
Known Issues
- If a
UITextField
or aUILabel
that is baseline aligned with constraints has attributes that change after the constraints have been added, the layout may be incorrect. The exception to this is-setFont:
onUILabel
, which should work as expected.Workaround: Avoid making changes inUITextField
orUILabel
after adding baseline-alignment constraints. If you must make changes, you should remove the constraints and then reapply them afterward. Note that this is a performance hit, so don’t do it unless it is necessary.- The
backIndicatorTransitionMask
from a storyboard or a xib will not be interpreted correctly at runtime.Workaround: Set thebackIndicatorTransitionMask
in code.
