Change Log – Version 8.4.0 – Release Date March 13, 2018

IMPORTANT NOTE:

PreEmptive Analytics has been deprecated.
Injecting Instrumentation and/or configuring Checks (or Responses) to send messages will generate a warning.
These features will be removed in a future version of DashO.

Enhancements:

• Provisional support for Java 9.
• Improved installation process with platform-native installers. (Launching DashO under Java 9 requires additional steps.)

• Improved Android SDK lookup in the project wizard.
• Improved Android wizard documentation.
• Included a reference to the DashO-GameOfLife sample.

• A warning is issued when injecting Instrumentation.
• A warning is issued when configuring Checks (or Responses) to send messages.
• A warning is issued when injecting Tamper Checks into library projects.
• An error is issued when a multi-release jar is an input.
• New messages and build warnings for out-of-date software.
• Updated to use ASM version 6.0.

  • v2.3.4 with a manifest processing fix.
• Includes apktool-2.3.1.
