Release Notes - **Release date: December 17th, 2021** ### Improvements * We improved the generated metadata of [published OData services](https://docs.mendix.com/refguide/published-odata-services). When all navigation properties are updatable, the **NonUpdatableNavigationProperties** capability is now omitted instead of specifying it as an empty collection. * We updated the regions for [Language Settings](https://docs.mendix.com/refguide/language-settings). ### Fixes * We upgraded the Cloud Foundry client (`mx-cf-client`) used to deploy Mendix applications from Mendix Studio Pro to compromised Cloud Foundry services by updating Apache Log4j libraries to 2.16.0, which addresses [CVE-2021-44228 and CVE-2021-45046](https://cert-portal.siemens.com/productcert/pdf/ssa-714170.pdf). * We fixed three issues in the generated metadata of published OData services. Due to these changes, previous Studio Pro versions as well as versions [9.7.x](9.7) and [9.8.0](9.8#980) are not able to read metadata produced by this Studio Pro version. The runtime is unaffected. When updating the contract of a [consumed OData service](https://docs.mendix.com/refguide/consumed-odata-services), upgrading to version [9.6.4](9.6#964), [9.8.1](9.8#981), or 9.9.0 or later is recommended. These are the three fixes: * `NonUpdatable(Navigation)Properties` are now specified as a collection of `(Navigation)PropertyPath` (and not as a collection of String). * `UpdateMethod` is now specified as an Enum value (and not as an Int). * `SupportedFormats` is now a collection of String (and not a simple String) * We fixed an issue where the [Auto Load More](https://docs.mendix.com/appstore/widgets/auto-load-more) widget did not work as expected together with a list view. (Ticket 132953) * We fixed an issue that occurred with a reference selector that set a reference to an uncommitted object where that object could not be retrieved over association in a microflow. (Tickets 131593, 133345, 134576, 135463, 137455) * We fixed an issue that occurred when reading the metadata of a consumed OData service where (navigation) properties marked as non-updatable in the metadata appeared to be updatable. * We fixed an issue in [published OData services](https://docs.mendix.com/refguide/published-odata-services) that occurred while generating metadata XML. The `Name` property in the `EntityContainer` section can no longer contain a slash (`/`). * When you open an app from a network path or from a drive in a Mac (both of which will contain double backslashes (`\\`) in the beginning of the file path), a warning is shown to tell you about potential issues that might cause and asks if you wants to proceed anyway. * We fixed a bug where dialog boxes increased in height after an edit was done on the dialog box itself when the app was version-controlled. ### Deprecations * Starting with version 9.6.6, we will drop support for DB2 version 11.1. ### Known Issues * When you update a [consumed OData service](https://docs.mendix.com/refguide/consumed-odata-service) with a new version from [Mendix Data Hub](https://docs.mendix.com/data-hub/) but close the document without saving, the blue arrow icon will no longer be shown to notify you about the available update for that service. * Workaround: Closing your app and opening it again fixes this issue. * In the **Properties** pane, you cannot copy, paste, or delete using keyboard shortcuts. * Workaround: Perform the same operation using your mouse and the context menu.
