Google Charts V45 Release Candidate will be pushed April 7

[Daniel LaLiberte]

We are about to push a new Google Charts Release Candidate (RC) - V45.

Candidate release date: April 7, 2016

Anticipated production release date: April 14, 2016

The purpose of this push is to update the old jsapi loaded library with a version that is close to the previously released v44.  We are doing this primarily to incorporate some security fixes that are already part of v44 into the jsapi loaded release, and as such, there are very few additional bug fixes and these are unlikely to be visible to people.

The last time we were successful updating the old jsapi loaded library was for v42.  So if you are still using that version of the code, you should look at the release notes for v43 (https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/release_notes#october-2-2015) and v44 (https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/release_notes#february-23-2016) to see what has changed.  

There are still many pages out on the web using the old jsapi loader, and these will be affected by this update.  Recall that the library was loaded like this:

   google.load('visualization', '1' (or '1.0' or '1.1), { packages: [...] });

If your pages load '1.1', you will be affected by this candidate release.  If your pages load '1' or '1.0', you won't see the changes until we push this out as the final release, but you should test now by switching to '1.1'.

If you have problems with this candidate release, you may want to switch to loading the frozen v42, so your code will look like this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.gstatic.com/charts/loader.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript">   google.charts.load('42', {packages: ['corechart']});   google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart); </script>

We recommend switching to the 'current' version using the new loader if you can, so you will see future updates.

Assuming this candidate push and the final release are successful, then I will update the frozen version v45 with the same.

We are using your Gantt Chart in our  application that is already released. Today some troubles have arisen with the displaying of the  Gantt chart( all the information connected to it is shown to the users but the chart itself). Can you please give us some recommendations in this situation what should be do to display it again and what is the fastest variant to fix this problem? As the theme was created about a week ago, I also have a question whether it is connected with the update of the code on your side?

Hi Наташа,

The Gantt Chart is working fine with version 1.1 loaded with the jsapi loader, as far as we know.  Here is an example: https://jsfiddle.net/dlaliberte/6o98ctza/

You'll have to give us more clues about the problems you are seeing.
