There’s never a good time for errors or performance degradations to show up, but during periods of peak traffic like the holidays, it’s especially critical to get immediate answers about what's failing and how to fix it.
We have released a new major version of our Android/Java SDK 7.0.0.
Notable changes include:
Connectivity changes are detected and cached events are re-uploaded when internet connection is re-established, so you don’t have to wait until the next app restart to get crashes in Sentry
A new sentry-okhttp artifact is available, which is a pure Java module and can be used in non-Android projects
Sentry.getSpan() now returns the root span/transaction instead of the latest span, which will make the span hierarchy leaner and more readable
Improvements to reduce probability of the SDK causing ANRs
The minSdk level was updated to 19
Plus, a new supporting version 4.0.0 of the Sentry Android Gradle plugin ensures a smooth update to the new SDK version.
PLEASE NOTE: For self-hosted users, there are breaking changes introduced in this update. Refer to the upgrade guide for a complete list of breaking changes.
