7.0.1

🚨🚨🚨Attention! 🚨🚨🚨

This release fixes the ability to parse bad server configuration data. Please upgrade to at least this version to help avoid major outtages such as #1374 and #1427

Added

Added additional unit tests for FBSDKRestrictiveDataFilterManager
Added integration test for building with xcodebuild
Added safer implementation of NSJSONSerialization methods to FBSDKTypeUtility and changed callsites
Added 'fuzz' testing class to test our network response parsing won't crash from bad/unexpected values

Fixed

Issue #1401
Issue #1380
Previously, we could not remove AAM data if we opt out some rules. Now, we align with Android AAM and add an internalUserData to save AAM data. And we only send back the data of enabled AAM rules.
Fix a bug where we were not updating Event Deactivation or Restrictive Data Filtering if the enable() function was called after the update() function
Restrictive data filtering bug where updating filters would exit early on an empty eventInfo parameter.
Enabling bitcode by default; we used to disable bitcode globally and enable it for certain versions of iphoneos due to Xcode 6 issue, given we've dropped the support for Xcode 6, it's cleaner to enable bitcode by default.

Changed

Now using FBSDKTypeUtility to provide type safety for Dictionaries and Arrays
Updates code so that NSKeyedUnarchiver method calls will continue to work no matter what the iOS deployment target is set to.
Skips sending back app events when there are no encoded events.

Deprecated

MarketingKit

2020-06-08 | Full Changelog

7.0.0 Changed

Using version 7.0 of the Facebook Graph API
Dropping support for Xcode versions below 11. This is in line with Apple's plans to disallow submission of Apps that do not include the iOS 13 SDK. This means that from v7.0 on, all SDK kits will be built using Xcode 11 and Swift 5.1.
Include the enhanced Swift interfaces

This primarily matters for how you include CocoaPods

Distribution Channel	Old way	New Way

5.X Upgrade Guide

All Developers

Light-weight generics have been added for Arrays, Sets, and Dictionaries. Make sure you're passing in the proper types.
Some methods used to have closures as arguments, but did not have them as the final argument. All these methods have been rearranged to have the closure as the final argument.

ObjC Developers

Certain string values, like App Event Names and HTTP Method, have been made NSString typedef with the NS_TYPED_EXTENSIBLE_ENUM attribute. All your existing code should work just fine.

Swift Developers

NS_SWIFT_NAME was applied where applicable. Most of these changes Xcode can fix automatically.
- The FBSDK prefix for UI elements has been replaced with the simpler FB prefix.
- The FBSDK prefix for all other types has been removed.
- FBSDKError is now CoreError.
NS_ERROR_ENUM is used to handling errors now. For more details, view Apple's documentation on Handling Cocoa Errors in Swift.
Certain string values, like App Event Names and HTTP Method, have been made extensible structs with the NS_TYPED_EXTENSIBLE_ENUM attribute:
- FBSDKAppEventNamePurchased -> AppEvents.Name.purchased
- "custom_app_event" -> AppEvents.Name("custom_app_event")
Certain values have been annotated with NS_REFINED_FOR_SWIFT and can be customized via either:
1. The Facebook SDK in Swift (Beta)
2. Implementing custom extensions

// Custom extensions
public extension AccessToken {
  var permissions: Set<String> {
    return Set(__permissions)
  }
}

extension AppEvents.Name {
  static let customAppEvent = AppEvents.Name("custom_app_event")
}

extension ShareDialog.Mode: CustomStringConvertible {
  public var description: String {
    return __NSStringFromFBSDKShareDialogMode(self)
  }
}

// Later in code
let perms: Set<String> = AccessToken(...).permissions

let event: AppEvents.Name = .customAppEvent

let mode: ShareDialog.Mode = .native
let description: String = "\(mode)"
