ANN: 1.2.1 prerelease for iOS/Mac/tvOS

[Jens Alfke]

We’re working on a 1.2.1 update for each of our mobile releases; final release date still TBD. Here’s the info for Couchbase Lite iOS/Mac/tvOS.

Bugs fixed (these are all cherry-picked from the master branch):

• #1006 Crash when app goes to background twice while replicating
• #1017 P2P memory leak
• #1078 ChangeTracker: Only use active_only=true if db is empty
• #1101 Couchbase Lite thread stuck on GZIP operation
• #1127 Replicator isn't including Authorization: header in requests, so it gets unnecessary 401s
• #1140 Continuous WebSocket puller crashes when receiving changes after changing user’s password

You can download the latest build from our nightly-builds server, or check out the release/1.2.1 branch and build it yourself.

Updates for Java/C#/SG are underway too; more news soon as we assemble the branches & builds.

Hi Jens,

Does #1127 affect CBLListener authentication at all? I've still not been able to get that to work for peer-to-peer authentication over SSL with basic authentication. I just want to use a username and password over SSL to authenticate for peer-to-peer sync.

Thanks,

Brendan

No.

Have you filed an issue?

No I didn't because I thought maybe I was just doing it wrong and didn't think it was a bug with CBL. I did post my code and questions in this thread though:

I'm attempting to use basic authentication with peer-to-peer syncing via SSL.

Thanks,

Right, I remember now...

Re-reading that thread, I don’t see any clear description of what exactly is going wrong. File an issue with the usual stuff like steps to reproduce, what you expect to happen, and what actually happens; then we can work out what’s going on.
