.NET

1.0.0, October 9, 2014

This is our first official release for Couchbase Lite for .NET. An expansion of our existing product, the .NET development started as a joint project between Xamarin and Couchbase. With this initial release, we support Xamarin targets such as Xamarin.iOS, Xamarin.Android and Xamarin.Mac, as well as major platforms like Windows 8/8.1 and Windows 7. Coming soon will be Windows XP and Windows Phone support, and we are on the lookout for support for the upcoming Windows 10 release.

Highlighted fixes

• _bulk_get returns NotFound error when replication URL ends with a forward slash
• Uppercase Revision Ids are incompatible with CouchDB
• Replicator.Authenticator should be public
• AccessViolationException on Windows
• Sqlite error on "database disk image is malformed" after replacing database file
• TraceEventCache undefined in Couchbase.Lite.0.9.5 for Android
• Calling `Properties` on an unsaved document throws NRE

1.0.0-Beta 1, May 21, 2014

In our first Beta release of C# support, we have a majority of features ported over from our Java libraries, but still have a remaining amount of work and progress to make, specifically in Replication. We also still need to develop a working and distributable PCL for full .NET support, but in the meantime you can make use of the Xamarin binding for C# for iOS and Android.

• New Authenticator and AuthenticatorFactory are not implemented: Issue #33.
• Cookie management is not supported: Issue #34.
• HTTPS is not supported: Issue #9.
