# Release Notes See [Deprecations](/resources/deprecations) for what is superseded but still shipping, and for the full removal list with migration notes. ## 1.144.0 2026-08-30 - Added `client->_event( arg = … )`, the one-value spelling of `t_arg`. `arg = x` is exactly `t_arg = VALUE #( ( x ) )` — the client folds it into the same table, so the wire and `get_event_arg( )` are unchanged — and it exists because most event wires carry a single value (a row key, a `${$source>/…}`, one event parameter), where the table constructor is longer than the value inside it. Passing both appends `arg` behind the `t_arg` rows. From two values on, `t_arg` stays the right parameter: there is deliberately no `arg2`/`arg3` - Added `client->_bind_path( val )`, the path form of `_bind( )` under a name of its own — what a bound aggregation, a `binding_call` filter/sorter and `bindElement` need. It is `_bind( val = … path = abap_true )`, byte for byte, and takes one parameter; combine `path` with `tab`/`tab_index`, `omit_initial`, `json` or `switch_default_model` and `_bind( )` is still the call. `path` stays on `_bind( )` and is not deprecated - Frontend actions: `expandSelected` / `collapseSelected` on a tree table, `setBadgeMinValue` / `setBadgeMaxValue`, `IconPool.registerFont` for a custom icon font (`sap.tnt`'s SAP-icons-TNT is the common one — without the registration such an icon renders no glyph and logs nothing), and `addCustomCurrencies`, which MERGES codes rather than replacing the whole registration the way `setCustomCurrencies` does - `NavContainer` `to( )` takes a typed page id plus an optional transition name, and `backToPage( )` no longer silently does nothing when handed a plain page id - Event arguments: an empty string arrives as an empty string, and a date-valued argument travels as the LOCAL date instead of shifting a day west of the system's timezone - `client->get( )-t_model_skipped` names the cells a model delta could not convert, instead of dropping them without a trace - The page-location block is latched when its request is confirmed rather than when it is built, so an aborted first request no longer suppresses it for the rest of the session - 7.02 / 7.31: a built-in function in a table-expression key no longer takes the whole class pool down at compile time (report #2664) - `MultiInputExt` gained the suggestion-row half of `addValidator` - Developer Tools: the cross-tab search moved onto a tab of its own **Renamed — the old name still ships** - `z2ui5_if_exit` is now `z2ui5_if_ui5_exit`. The old interface still ships and is still looked up and called, so every existing exit keeps working; rename at your leisure **Removed** - BREAKING: `z2ui5_if_types` is retired to `src/99` — every type it held now sits on the object that uses it (`ty_s_get` / `ty_s_event_control` / `ty_s_name_value` / `ty_t_name_value` / `cs_device` on `z2ui5_if_client`, the three HTTP config types on `z2ui5_if_ui5_exit`, `ty_s_draft` on `z2ui5_cl_ui5_srv_draft`). Nothing is deleted or reshaped: the interface ships unchanged from the frozen package, so `z2ui5_if_types=>…` still compiles, and every moved type is identical field for field ## 1.143.0 2026-08-16 - Added `z2ui5_cl_ui5_view_builder`, the view builder this documentation is written against: `factory( )` / `ele( )` / `tag( )` / `a( )` / `end( )` / `stringify( )`, with every UI5 control and property reachable because the builder knows none of them by name. `z2ui5_cl_xml_view` is frozen, not removed — it ships unchanged and keeps working - The model is pushed **automatically** when an event roundtrip changed it. The framework compares the model before and after `main( )` and sends it to every open view slot when it differs, so a handler can no longer render stale by forgetting a call. An unchanged model sends no payload at all - Error output: a 500 now carries the full diagnostic — the message chain, one block per exception (class, text, source position, kernel error id, public attributes) and the app / event / draft / url / system context. The error popup shows the messages only, with the detail one click away behind *Details* and in *Copy* - The HTTP handler asks ICF to gzip its responses where the client accepts it — 70–85% less transfer on installations whose ICM profile does not compress already - Added `_bind( json = abap_true )`: a bound string that already contains JSON is spliced into the model as a JSON node, for control properties that must receive an object (a `sap.ui.integration` Card manifest, whose keys are not valid ABAP field names) - Control-valued event arguments now reach the backend as data — `ViewSettingsDialog.confirm`, `SinglePlanningCalendar.selectedDatesChange` and the like used to break serialization entirely - Added `setP13nData` to `CONTROL_METHODS`, so seeding a `sap.m.p13n` panel no longer needs hand-written JavaScript - `message_toast_display( )` / `message_box_display( )` queue follow-up actions: several calls in one roundtrip all show, in call order, after the view rendered - The startup page was rebuilt — the five quickstart steps top to bottom, then one row per sample repository with its install status, and the system information as a popup - Developer Tools: the POPUP/POPOVER tabs now follow a dialog closed without a roundtrip; empty tabs gray out instead of opening blank; the NEST/NEST2 and System tabs are gone - The wire got leaner throughout (internal): action lists travel as real JSON arrays, session-constant browser data travels once per page load, a display action implies the slot teardown, and the routing mode is only re-sent when the frontend may not hold it - Fixes: a pending backend timer no longer fires into a destroyed controller; an app switch clears the previous app's keyboard shortcuts; a nested view re-displayed without its MAIN view gets the model too; `cc/Storage` compares by value, so a structure can be stored and read back; the `MessageToast` `Popup.Dock` warning is gone; the default CSP no longer names `frame-ancestors` in the `` tag - `src/99` test classes are back in CI: all 27 restored, the two disabled `xml_view` suites re-enabled, and the freeze now covers production code only **Obsolete — still compiles, still works** - `view_model_update( )`, `popup_model_update( )`, `popover_model_update( )` and the two nested variants now do **nothing**. The push is automatic; delete the calls when you next touch the app - `_event_client( )` → `follow_up_action( )`, which is the same call in the same position - `_bind( custom_mapper = … custom_filter = … )` → `omit_initial` / `omit_initial_paths` / `json`, or shape it in ABAP - `cs_event-wizard_set_next_step` → two `control_by_id` calls, which additionally reach `goToStep` **Removed** - `set_nav_back( )` and `set_nav_routing( )` from `z2ui5_if_client`. Routing is `follow_up_action( val = cs_event-set_nav_routing t_arg = ( mode ) )` now; `set_push_state( )` and `set_app_state_active( )` stay and delegate to the events - `cs_event-nav_to_route` → `nav_app_call( )`, which is the real navigation and pushes the same route history entry when routing is on - `cs_event-history_back` → `follow_up_action( |history.back()| )`, or `nav_app_leave( )` to return through the app stack - `VIEWNAME` from `z2ui5_if_types=>ty_s_get`. The framework never filled it — an app reading `client->get( )-viewname` has to drop the read - `z2ui5_if_app~check_sticky` / `check_initialized` moved to the framework's own app wrapper. Both attributes stay and are kept in sync, so a **read** still sees the truth; a direct **write** is no longer honored — use `set_session_stateful( )` and `check_on_init( )` - Curated formatter: `round2DP`, `dimensions`, `stockStatusState`, `stockStatusIcon`, `deliveryStatusState`. Rounding, joining and status-to-`ValueState` mapping are things ABAP finishes — bind the result. The date helpers and `expandInlineIcons` remain - `render_documentation( )`, `render_system_popup( )` and `render_contribution( )` from `z2ui5_cl_ui5_app_start`, with `cs_event-open_info`, `cs_event-close` and `cs_event-open_debug` — internals of the framework's own start page ## 1.142.0 2026-07-20 - Added frontend action functions: `control_by_id`, `binding_call` - Added new frontend events, e.g. `SYSTEM_LOGOUT` and `KEYBOARD_SET_MODE` - Extended the Debug Tool with error/log tabs and export (renamed to Developer Tools) - Performance: introduced delta data transfer — only changed fields/rows are sent to the backend - Compatibility: UI5 1.71 / UI5 2.x fixes (lazy module loading, lifecycle, aggregation escaping) - Security: error message sanitization, security response headers, fatal-error overlay - Samples repository fully reworked - Various small improvements and bug fixes **Removed** - `z2ui5_cl_util_api` and its environment-specific variants `z2ui5_cl_util_api_c` / `z2ui5_cl_util_api_s`. The methods were kept: `bal_*`, `tr_*`, `conv_get_itab_by_xlsx` / `conv_get_xlsx_by_itab` and `source_get_method` are now on `z2ui5_cl_util_ext`, the remaining ones on `z2ui5_cl_util`. Replace the `z2ui5_cl_util_api=>` prefix with the class that now holds the method - `z2ui5_cl_pop_bal` (BAL message popup) — removed without a replacement. The other built-in popups were not removed; they moved into the frozen package and keep working unchanged ## 1.141.0 2025-12-14 - Added Image Editor popup for image manipulation - Added Camera Selector control with facing mode support -
