* Added support for monitoring by IP address or hostname as well as local Wifi and Internet access generally
* Eliminated usage of synchronous calls to obtain reachability flags during status checks
* Reworked SystemConfiguration reachability callback to cache flags
* RKClient now monitors Internet access instead of hostname based reachability by default. baseURLReachabilityObserver eliminated in favor of reachabilityObserver. It is now a retain property that can be customized
* Queue suspension is now tied to the reachability observer rather than baseURL mutation
Cleaned up @rodchile's excellent work integration OAuth 1.0 and 2.0 into RestKit. Changes
are as follows:
* Introduced new RKRequestAuthenticationType to replace the forceBasicAuthentication and other
methods for influencing how authorization works.
* Moved TDOAuth code into Vendor/
* Renamed authorization code flow classes and delegate methods for clarity.
The following changes were made:
* Added isCacheable to RKRequest
* Return nil for cacheKey on non-cacheable RKRequests
* Updated RKRequestCache to ensure attempts to cache uncacheable requests has no effect
* Added basic unit tests and expanded comments on some parts of the cache API
* Introduces RKRequestCache for cacheing responses (supports ETag conditional GET, use cache if available, use cache on error, etc.) closes#75
* Updates to Three20 layer to eliminate need for intermediary TTTableItem classes closes#76
* Fixes to ensure iOS 3.x compatability:
* Switched compiler to Clang
* Updated conditional checks for UIBackgroundTask symbols to ensure runtime safety on iOS 3.x
* Removed unnecessary linkage against UIKit and CoreFoundation from library targets
* Fix for issue where RKRequest objects could become stuck in infinite loop within RKRequestQueue loadNextInQueue if you start
a request and then cancel immediately. On cancel only decrement loadCount if the request has start loading. refs #122
* Removed RestKit from inheritance hierarchy
* Mappings are implemented as concrete classes
* Mapper is much more flexible & powerful
* Much more robust error handling
* Serialization is reimplemented as an object mapping operation
* Added ability to serialize to JSON natively
* Reworked Core Data integration
* Simplified the codebase substantially
* Factored out display of alerts into RKAlert interface that hides the differences between UIKit and OS X Cocoa.
* Added macosx to supported platforms to enable build on OS X.
* Configured project to use conditional architectures to enable building on OS X and iOS from the same targets.
* Implemented a bare-bones OS X example app.
* Create `rake build` task for building RestKit against iOS and OS X SDK for quick testing.
Introduces four modes for handling background requests:
* RKRequestBackgroundPolicyNone - The default behavior replicating pre-background behavior. No special action is taken with regards to backgrounding.
* RKRequestBackgroundPolicyCancel - On transition to the background, requests with this policy set will be cancelled automatically and the delegate informed.
* RKRequestBackgroundPolicyContinue - Requests with this policy will be continued in the background after the app has been transitioned.
* RKRequestBackgroundPolicyRequeue - Requests with this policy will be cancelled and then immediately placed onto the queue for processing the next time the app is returned to the foreground.
* Updates YAJL Parser not to raise an exception and crash when it encounters invalid JSON. The other parsers need to be aligned with this behavior and the delegate methods updated. See Pivotal Story: https://www.pivotaltracker.com/story/show/11925617
* Added requestDidCancel: delegate invocation for tracking cancellation of requests.
* Ensure that the request queue timer is cleared during indeterminate deferral of request loads.
