iOS 5 beta 7 Features (Change log)

Well, actually the full changelog of iOS 5 beta 7 is quite long. But here we’ll try to sort it for easy reading:

  • NEW: Starting in iOS 5.0 development tools beta 7, it is possible to extract APIs used by an application and have them checked for private APIs usage.
    This option will be offered at Validation time.
  • NEW: Starting in iOS 5 beta 7, the requirements for specifying container identifier strings in your application’s entitlements have changed.
    Each container identifier that does not include a wildcard character must exactly match the bundle identifier of an application published using the same team ID as your application. You are not required to include an entitlement that matches your app’s own bundle identifier; for example, a lite and pro version of your app could both specify the pro app’s bundle identifier to share the same container. The requirements for container identifiers that include wildcard characters have not changed, but you may need to update existing wildcard identifiers after changing any non-wildcard identifiers in your application’s entitlements to match the new rules.
  • NEW: In this beta of iOS 5.0 the number of times an app can synchronize in quick succession with the servers has been reduced.
    If you are debugging your app and want to see whether your synchronize requests are being throttled, you can call the -[NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore _printDebugDescription] method directly in gdb. Please note that -[NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore _printDebugDescription] is an SPI so you are strongly advised not to use it in your app.
  • NEW: Auto-matching with the Turn-based view controller does not work.
    Invites or the direct auto-match API can be used as a workaround.
  • FIXED: Events will be passed to the delegate whenever a turn is made on a match, instead of just when it becomes the local player’s turn.
  • FIXED: Setup Assistant does not provide AppleID password as an input for the FaceTime in iMessage.
  • FIXED: When editing the value of a constraint in the inspector, the constraint remains selected, and the outline view continues to show the constraint as selected.
  • NEW: When trying to restore an iPhone 3GS or iPod touch 3rd generation device running Beta 6 to Beta 7 using iTunes, you will have to set the device into DFU or you can OTA update to Beta 7.
  • FIXED: After the lighting stage, whether lighting is enabled or not, the resulting color values are not clamped in GLKit/GLKEffects with either GLKLightingTypePerVertex or GLKLightingTypePerPixel set on the effect.
    As a result it is not uncommon to see differences in lighting between the two, especially when multiple lights are enabled. This differs from OpenGLES 1.1 which clamps color values after the lighting stage regardless of whether or not lighting is enabled.
  • FIXED: There may be some cases where purchases from the App Store or iTunes Store appear to be stalled because the device is downloading something else in the background.
    A workaround is to disconnect the device from power (unplug the device).
  • NEW: If you have a passcode set, it must be removed before updating to seed 7 from previous seeds.
    It can be re-enabled after the update is complete. Failure to do so may require iMessage to be re-enabled in settings.
  • FIXED: If reminders syncing is enabled for a Yahoo account and there is no reminders collection on the server, it will continually get recreated by the phone. Due to a Yahoo server bug, that collection will show up as an event calendar.
  • NEW: In releases prior to iOS 5.0, the UIPopoverController class would unconditionally set the autoresizing masks of view controllers which were the content view controller of the popover controller.
    It would also unconditionally set the autoresizing masks of the views of view controllers pushed on to a UINavigationController object which was the content view controller of the popover controller.
  • FIXED: The autosaveWithCompletionHandler: method will now only be called for period-based saves and it is safe to return without saving.
    Documents must save, though, if thesaveToURL:forSaveOperation:completionHandler: method is invoked.

    Hi, Neat post. There’s a problem with your website in web explorer, might test this? IE still is the market leader and a big section of other folks will omit your fantastic writing because of this problem.
