Realm v6.1.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-01-17 // over 4 years ago
  • ✨ Enhancements

    • 🔌 The Realm Gradle plugin now applies kapt when used in Kotlin Multiplatform projects. Note, Realm Java still only works for the Android part of a Kotlin Multiplatform project. (Issue #6653)
    • The error message shown when no native code could be found for the device is now much more descriptive. This is particular helpful if an app is using App Bundle or APK Split and the resulting APK was side-loaded outside the Google Play Store. (Issue #6673)
    • RealmResults.asJson() now encode binary data as Base64 and null object links are reported as null instead of [].

    🛠 Fixed

    • 🛠 Fixed using RealmList with a primitive type sometimes crashing with Destruction of mutex in use. (Issue #6689)
    • RealmObjectSchema.transform() would crash if one of the DynamicRealmObject provided are deleted from the Realm. (Issue #6657, since 0.86.0)
    • The Realm Transformer will no longer attempt to send anonymous metrics when Gradle is invoked with --offline. (Issue #6691)
