---------------------
Release date: December 31, 2015
.. note::
Version 0.4.0 introduces several breaking changes to API and wire format of management protocols
Changes since version 0.3.4:
New features:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- **(breaking change)** LocalControlHeader for special signaling between application and NFD has
been replaced with NDNLPv2 signaling (:issue:`2879`, :issue:`2930`)
- NDNLPv2 Network NACK support in Face abstraction (:issue:`2930`)
- **(breaking change)** FacePersistency field added to API and wire format of ControlParameters abstraction (:issue:`2991`)
- **(breaking change)** NACK counters added to ForwarderStatus and FaceStatus datasets (:issue:`3174`)
- Backport C++14 ``std::make_unique`` (:issue:`3093`)
- Emulate ``std::to_string`` on platforms that do not provide it (:issue:`2743`)
- New API in Face class to remove all pending Interests (:issue:`3300`)
- Ability to choose signing parameters (a specific certificate, the default certificate for
a key, or the default certificate for the default key) using a specially URI string
(:issue:`3281`)
- Ability to create Face with custom IO service and default transport (:issue:`2500`)
Improvements and bug fixes:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- **(breaking change)** SegmentFetcher helper changed to use asynchronous data validation (:issue:`2734`)
- Support Interest Nack in nfd::Controller (:issue:`3264`)
- Fix bug causing failure of Face if there is a large delay between construction of Face and calling processEvents
(:issue:`2742`, :issue:`2526`)
- Cache Link object after the first call to getLink (:issue:`3158`)
- Minor documentation updates (:issue:`3207`, :issue:`3210`, :issue:`3221`)
Deprecated:
^^^^^^^^^^^
- Overloads of ``Face::registerPrefix`` and ``Face::setInterestFilter`` that do not accept
SigningInfo parameter (:issue:`2932`)
- tlvdump tool (:issue:`3196`). Use ``ndn-dissect`` program from ndn-tools repository
`<https://github.com/named-data/ndn-tools>`__
- ndn::util::makeDummyClientFace, use ndn::util::DummyClientFace constructors directly
(:issue:`3146`)
- ndn::util::DummyClientFace::sentDatas, use ndn::util::DummyClientFace.sentData instead
(:issue:`3146`)
Removed:
^^^^^^^^
- Deprecated EventEmitter class (:issue:`2351`)
Planned features for future releases:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Introduce new API to simplify security transformations (:issue:`3009`)
- NDN trust schema as a description of application trust model, which can help automate data
and interest packet signing and authentication (:issue:`2829`)
- Refactored KeyChain abstraction (:issue:`2926`)
