v1.5.0

• Add Store.runInTransactionAsync to run database operations asynchronously in the background (requires Flutter 2.8.0/Dart 2.15.0 or newer). #415
• Rename Store.runIsolated to runAsync, drop unused mode parameter, propagate errors and handle premature isolate exit. #415
• The native ObjectBox library is also searched for in the lib subfolder on desktop OS (macOS, Linux, Windows). This is where the install.sh script downloads it by default.
  E.g. it is no longer necessary to install the library globally to run dart test or flutter test.
• Windows: Support database directory paths that contain unicode (UTF-8) characters. #406
• Changed Query.stream to collect results in a worker isolate, which should typically be faster. #420
• Update: objectbox-c 0.16.0.
• Update: objectbox-android 3.1.3.
• Add new task with tag list Flutter example app that shows how to use relations. #419

v1.4.1

• Resolve "another store is still open" issue after Flutter hot restart (hot reload continues to work). #387
• Add Store.isClosed(). #390
• Add note to objectbox.g.dart on how to re-generate (update) it.

v1.4.0

Note: the code generated by ObjectBox has breaking changes, make sure to re-generate it after upgrading using
flutter pub run build_runner build (or dart run build_runner build for Dart only projects).

• Support ObjectBox Admin for Android apps to browse the database. #148
• Add Store.runIsolated to run database operations (asynchronous) in the background (requires Flutter 2.8.0/Dart 2.15.0 or newer). It spawns an isolate, runs the given callback in that isolate with its own Store and returns the result of the callback. This is similar to Flutters compute, but with the callback having access to a Store. #384
• Add Store.attach to attach to a Store opened in a directory. This is an improved replacement for Store.fromReference to share a Store across isolates. It is no longer required to pass a Store reference and the underlying Store remains open until the last instance is closed. #376
• Add an option to change code-generator's output_dir in pubspec.yaml. #341
• Update: objectbox-c 0.15.2.
• Update: objectbox-android 3.1.2.
• Update: objectbox-swift 1.7.0.

v1.3.0

• Support annotating a single property with @Unique(onConflict: ConflictStrategy.replace) to
  replace an existing object if a conflict occurs when doing a put. #297

v1.2.1

• Fix Flutter apps crashing on iOS 15 simulator. #313
• Fix ToMany.applyToDb() not working after putting object with empty ToMany.
• Update objectbox-android to 3.0.1.

v1.2.0

• Add Query.findUnique() to find a single object matching the query.
• Add support for relations when using 3rd-party JSON serialization libraries.
• Fix generator when mixing backlinks and "standard" relations in the same entity (generated code had a syntax error).
• Fix @Backlink() annotation when specifying a ToOne relation by field name.
• Fix Query.find*() exception forwarding when a user-provided property converter throws.
• Increase supported analyzer dependency version to include v2.x major version.
• Update FlatBuffer dependency to the latest upstream version.

v1.1.1

• Add support for Query.param() on linked entities.
• Fix generated openStore() for apps that don't enable null-safety yet.

v1.1.0

• New openStore() in the generated code to simplify creating a store instance, especially on Flutter (uses application
  documents directory as a default).
• Add support for Entities used together with some custom code-generators (immutable objects, JSON, ...).
  See @Entity(realClass: ) new field and its docs.
• New Query.param() to support reusable queries (changing condition values before execution).
  See Reusing queries in docs.
• Rename semi-internal QueryRelationProperty to QueryRelationToOne and QueryRelationMany to QueryRelationToMany
  to help users pick the right link function: link() vs linkMany().
• Add support for the entity/property/relation rename or reset workflow.
  See Data model updates for details.
• Add support for ToOne relation cycles.
• Enforce you can only open the same database directory once (multiple parallel Store instances are not allowed).
• Fix macOS sandbox database directory permissions (see notes in Flutter-specific "Getting Started" docs).
• Fix ToMany showing duplicate items after adding them before reading the previous list.
• Fix invalid native free during store shutdown if large data was inserted (more than 64 kilobytes flatbuffer).
• FlatBuffers serialization performance improvements.
• Update to objectbox-android v2.9.2-RC3.

v1.0.0

• New Box putAsync() returning a Future and putQueued() for asynchronous writes.
• Query now supports auto-closing. You can still call close() manually if you want to free native resources sooner
  than they would be by Dart's garbage collector, but it's not mandatory anymore.
• Change the "meta-model" fields to provide completely type-safe query building.
  Conditions you specify are now checked at compile time to match the queried entity.
• Make property queries fully typed, PropertyQuery.find() now returns the appropriate List<...> type without casts.
• Query conditions inside() renamed to oneOf(), notIn() and notInList() renamed to notOneOf().
• Query stream and findStream() are replaced by QueryBuilder.watch(), i.e. box.query(...).watch().
• New Query stream() to stream objects all the while the query is executed in the background.
• New Query condition between() for integers and IDs.
• Store subscribe<EntityType>() renamed to watch().
• Store subscribeAll() replaced by a shared broadcast stream entityChanges.
• Entities can now contain final fields and they're properly stored/loaded (must be constructor params).
• Flutter desktop - native library is now downloaded automatically, same as for mobile platforms.
• Follow exception-vs-error throwing conventions - throwing errors when it's a permanent developer-caused error. Namely,
  there's a new UniqueViolationException thrown when an object you're trying to put() would violate a Unique() index.
• Even higher than usual amount of internal optimizations and improvements.
• Update to objectbox-c v0.14.0.
• Update to objectbox-swift v1.6.0.
• Update to objectbox-android v2.9.2-RC.
