iOS 8.2 nu aduce vreo noutate notabila pentru iDevice-urile noastre, ci doar functi ilegate de WatchKit sau de OS X, deci nu este necesar sa il instalati deocamdata.
iOS 8.2 changelog
Notes and Known Issues
The following issues relate to using iOS SDK 8.2 to develop code.
CloudKit
Note
A single
CKAsset
instance can no longer be set as a value on multiple CKRecords.Document Providers
Notes
Your app needs the iCloud entitlement to be able to be used as a document provider.
The
com.apple.developer.icloud-container-identifiers
entitlement is required.Known Issues
After rotating document picker to landscape, the status bar is hidden.
Upon bringing up document picker in landscape, the containing view may be shifted beneath the navigation bar.
App Extensions
Notes
App extensions need an arm64 slice to run on 64-bit devices. If you try to run the armv7 slice on a 64-bit device it won’t work.
Apps need to have an arm64 slice if the bundle contains a framework that both the app and the app extension link against.
File System
Note
The file system layout of app containers has changed on disk. Rather than relying on hard-coded directory structure, use the
NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains
function or theURLForDirectory:inDomain:appropriateForURL:create:error:
method of theNSFileManager
class. See Accessing Files and Directories in File System Programming Guide.Fonts
Note
The Thai system font has increased in size to improve readability. This will cause clipping in many places in your UI if you don’t take appropriate action:
Use
UILabel
as much as possible. If you use Interface Builder, make sure that Clip Subviews is not checked. UIKit will grow the clipping region as necessary to not clip text.Use Dynamic Type. This will ensure that you do not have overlapping glyphs in multiline labels or text fields.
If you can’t do 1 and 2 because you implement your own views, you must implement measures not to clip. You can use CoreText to figure out the appropriate clipping region for a line of text by calling:
CTLineGetBoundsWithOptions(lineRef, kCTLineBoundsIncludeLanguageExtents);To avoid overlapping glyphs in multiline text elements, adjust the line height. An additional 30% is recommended.
This measure will also help your app perform better in other languages, including Arabic, Hindi, and Vietnamese.
iCloud
Note
Mail handoff and AirDrop may stop working after changing your iCloud password at appleid.apple.com.
Workaround: Sign out and back into iCloud on the device.
iCloud Drive
Note
URLForUbiquityContainerIdentifier:
might returnnil
when running your application in Xcode. If so, open System Preferences, navigate to iCloud > iCloud Drive, and enable Xcode.Keyboards
Known Issue
Additional keyboards, including 3rd party keyboards, may not appear in Safari, Maps, or 3rd party apps in the Simulator.
Workaround: Keyboards should be testable in Calendar, Spotlight, Contacts, and Photos.
Notification Center
Note
The schedule and intended use of
widgetPerformUpdateWithCompletionHandler:
is intended as a convenient home for all data/model update logic. If implemented, the system will call at opportune times for the widget to update its state, both when Notification Center is visible, as well as in the background. An implementation is required to enable background updates. It’s expected that the widget will perform the work to update asynchronously and off the main thread as much as possible. Widgets should call the argument block when the work is complete, passing the appropriateNCUpdateResult
. Widgets should NOT block returning fromviewWillAppear:
on the results of this operation. Instead, widgets should load cached state inviewWillAppear:
in order to match the state of the view from the lastviewWillDisappear:
, then transition smoothly to the new data when it arrives.NSURLSession
Note
The
NSURLSessionTask
class provides a new “priority” property with three associated constants:NSURLSessionTaskPriorityDefault
,NSURLSessionTaskPriorityLow
, andNSURLSessionTaskPriorityHigh
.NSURLSessionTask
priorities can be used to specify how multiple requests and responses to the same host should be prioritized. Note that the priority is a hint and not a strict guarantee ofNSURLSessionTask
performance.For complete usage details of
NSURLSessionTask
priorities, refer to theNSURLSession.h
header file, which is provided by the Foundation framework.Phone
Notes
To activate Wi-Fi Calling functionality for T-Mobile (U.S. only), follow these steps:
Go to Settings > Phone > Wi-Fi Calling.
Toggle the Wi-Fi Calling switch to ON.
If the carrier does not have the user’s registered emergency address, you will be asked to add it before the feature is activated.
Photos
Notes
Maintain a backup of your photo library before enabling and while using iCloud Photo Library beta by:
Importing to your Mac using iPhoto
Importing to your Mac using Image Capture
iCloud Photo Library beta will not download photos and videos that were synced to your device from iTunes. Any photos and videos synced to your device from iTunes will be removed when you enable iCloud Photo Library beta.
iPhoto for iOS will not launch on iOS 8 Beta. Launching Photos.app will migrate your iPhoto edits to the iOS 8 Photo Library. Make sure your iPhoto for iOS data is included in your device backup.
The ability to automatically optimize device space is enabled for all accounts larger than 5GB.
When using iCloud Family Sharing, both iCloud Photo Sharing and My Photo Stream are enabled.
Provisioning Profiles
Known Issue
If you have upgraded to the 8.2 Beta from previous iOS 8 Betas you may see your apps crashing due to provisioning profile issues.
Workaround:
Connect the device via USB to your Mac.
Launch Xcode.
Choose Window > Devices.
Right click on the device in left column, choose “Show Provisioning Profiles”.
Click on the provisioning profile in question.
Press the “-” button.
Continue to removing all affected profiles.
Re-install the app.
Siri
Known Issue
Siri support for Singapore English is disabled in this Beta, though it remains selectable in the Siri language selection window.
UIKit
Notes
UILabel
has a default value of YES forclipsToBounds
. This differs from the normalUIView
default of NO.The
leftLayoutGuide
andrightLayoutGuide
APIs have been removed. Please use thelayoutMargins
property instead.WatchKit
Known Issues
When viewing a notification in iOS simulator, clicking on the notification icon or body does not launch the corresponding Watch app.
When you choose Build and Run it doesn’t launch the Watch window.
Workaround: Open the Watch window under Hardware > External Displays and then choose Build and Run again.
The custom sash color for notification controllers does not currently appear in Interface Builder, but it does appear in iOS Simulator.
The
presentTextInputControllerWithSuggestions:completion:
method ofWKInterfaceController
is not currently supported in iOS Simulator.Installing Watch apps may stop working in iOS Simulator.
Workaround: Reset the simulator and try again.
The
addMenuItemWithImage:title:action:
method ofWKInterfaceController
does not work in iOS Simulator.Workaround: Use
addMenuItemWithImageNamed:title:action:
.Wi-Fi Calling (T-Mobile US only)
Note
The carrier name in the status bar will show “T-Mobile Wi-Fi” when the device is able to make and receive Wi-Fi calls.
