This release fixes a bug that may affect KV ledgers with support for pre-execution. The bug caused transactions that access the same contract key and are pre-executed concurrently to sometimes result in two contracts with the same contract key to be active, violating contract key uniqueness.

Highlights ========== - DAML on SQL is available as an Early Access standalone JAR, you can find it on the GH Release page(https://github.com/digital-asset/daml/releases) - Improvements to Ledger API and documentation for client application failover - This involves cha

Summary ======= - The Websocket query and fetch APIs are now stable. - The JSON API Server is now released as a standalone JAR file to GitHub Releases. - DAML Script and REPL now work in Static Time mode and can query parties. - DAML Studio exposes more details on how contra

Summary ======= - Module prefixes can now be stored in daml.yaml. This means that you can use multiple versions of libraries in the same project by specifying them in daml.yaml instead of with the --package command line flag. - A new flag, --max-lf-value-translation-cache-ent

Summary ------- - New package management endpoints on the JSON API - Better TLS Support for the JSON API - Action required if you start the JSON API using daml json-api and do not run it behind a reverse proxy. What's New ---------- New Package Management Endpoints o

This is a bugfix release for SDK 1.0.0. All users of SDK 1.0.0 are encouraged to upgrade at their earliest convenience. This release fixes 3 issues: 1. Fix an issue with false negative contract key lookups by non-stakeholders (see <https://github.com/digital-asset/daml/issues/5562> f

Summary ======= - New JavaScript/TypeScript client-side tooling is now stable and the recommended way to build DAML applications. A new Getting Started Guide(https://docs.daml.com/1.0.0/getting-started/index.html) based on these tools has replaced the Quickstart guide. - The

0.13.55 - 2020-03-18 Summary - DAML Script is officially supported - Action required by April 2020 if you use scenarios for Sandbox initialization - DAML Repl is available as an experimental feature - Support for cross-SDK DAR Dependencies and Contract Upgrades - Action required to m

Sandbox ======= - Removed the warnings regarding static time and scenarios on initialization. We will not deprecate these until we have a stable alternative. - If no ledger ID is provided when running against an existing ledger, use the existing ID. Previously, Sandbox would

DAML Stdlib ============= - Restrict the (>>) operator to instances of Action and make it lazy in its second argument. This gives expressions of the form do A; B the desirable semantics of only running B when A is a successful action. - Remove the Action and ActionFail instances for Validatio

DAML Assistant ============== - The assistant can now do completions for SDK commands, e.g., daml ledger upl<TAB> will complete to daml ledger upload-dar. - The new behavior introduced in 0.13.51 to shut down when stdin is closed is now disabled unless you explicitly enable it by passing --shut

JSON API - Experimental ======================= - In websocket endpoints, if a created and archived contract in the same result array share a contract key, the archived is guaranteed to occur earlier in the array than the created. See issue \4354(https://github.com/digital-asset

DAML Compiler - damlc test now initializes the packagedb automatically which means that it will work on projects that declare custom dependencies in daml.yaml without having to call damlc init first. - Choices marked explicitly as preconsuming are now equivalent to a nonconsu

Sandbox ======= - The sandbox uses a new payload format for authentication tokens (JWTs). The old format is deprecated, but still works. - Metrics are now namespaced by "daml" and their names have been standardized to snake_case. DAML Studio ========== - Scenarios with unserializabl

DAML Compiler ============= - The build-options field from daml.yaml is now also respected when --project-root is used. DAML SDK ======== - Docker images for this release and releases in the future are built using the Dockerfile of the corresponding git tag and are therefore

JSON API - Experimental =================== - Rename argument in active contract to payload. See 3826. - Change variant JSON encoding. The new format is { tag: data-constructor, value: argument }. For example, if we have: data Foo = Bar Int | Baz, these are all valid JSON encodings for va

DAML Ledger Integration Kit ====================== - Move to asynchronous package management service. ResponseMatcher is not needed and uploadPackages now returns SubmissionResult See 3806 - Fix indexer crash on duplicate submission. See 3847 - Standardize and cleanup metric names to use unde

DAML Compiler ============= - The modules DA.Types and GHC.Tuple from daml-prim have been moved to separate DALF packages. - Fixed an issue where packages produced by damlc resulted in type errors during validation by DAML engine. Sandbox ======= - The sandbox JWT authent

0.13.39 - 2019-12-05 Java Bindings - Added authentication support. See issue 3626 DAML Compiler - The modules GHC.Prim and GHC.Types from daml-prim have been moved to separate packages. - Don't make UndecidableSuperClasses a default language extension for DAML anymore. If you reall

Ledger API ========== - Allow non-alphanumeric characters in Ledger API server participant ids (space, colon, hash, slash, dot). Proper fix for change originally attempted in v0.13.36. See issue issue \3327(https://github.com/digital-asset/daml/issues/3327). - Add healthcheck

DAML Stdlib - Added the NumericScale typeclass, which improves the type inference for Numeric literals, and helps catch the creation of out-of-bound Numerics earlier in the compilation process. - fromAnyChoice and fromAnyContractKey now take the template type into account. Navigator -
