We have disabled it by default to
prevent using workarounds as
long time solutions and to not
miss bugs. But in a federated
context we can not be sure that
we all Matrix clients are ever
bug free and we have now the
onEncryptionError Stream
anyway.
deviceKeysList.outdated is not nullable but we have seen this error
in production: `Failed assertion: boolean expression must not be null`
So this could either be a null safety bug in Dart or a result of
using unsound null safety. The extra equal check `== true` should
safe us here
This can improve the start-up time of apps.
The three big db reads on init are
loading account data, rooms and
device keys.
This makes it now possible to let
them run parallel
(while it may depend on platform
if this has any effect)
and the init() method can skip
awaiting them. They will
be at least awaited before handling
the first received sync.
So the app can already display the
room list before device keys are
loaded and request the first sync
from the server before anything
else is loaded from the DB.
Room states are ignored if the event with the same event ID
is already known in the database. But
because of the event is stored in the
database and after this
setState in the Room class is called,
an event is always "known" and
therefore auto updating was broken.
Just using the .init() method to wait for the client
to initialize is a more easy way than listen to onLoginStateChanged.
But by default it waits for the first sync.
This should be configurable.
Previously when using RoomUpdate in the constructor the notificationCount to update
was never null and set to 0 if it was missing. Now that we are
no longer using it, I forgot to
add the null fallback at this point.
This leads to serious crashes in the apps at runtime
and thats why I bump the version here as well!
The method was not type safe and therefore there
was no warning that with the sortOrder changes
now DateTimes are compared which leads to
an exception in the app if not using converting to milliseconds first.
RoomUpdate came from a time where we had no data model for
SyncUpdates but now we have and therefore this class is just
code duplication. This removes the class
and uses the SyncRoomUpdate class from
the package matrix_api_lite instead.
It needed a lot of refactoring at some places
where I also have removed some unnecessary null or type checks.
The current implementation of sortOrder can be made way more easier now
by just keeping the sortOrder of the list
and the timelineFragments in the hiveStore. This needed a huge
change but mostly removes a lot of code which can be done
way more easy now. This also needed some rewriting of the setState logic and changes to
the prevEvent calculation. This solution should also be more stable.

getRoomById searches now in the local cache for the given room and returns null if not
found. If you have loaded the [archive] before, it can also return
archived rooms.
This should make it much easier to display
archived rooms in the client.
The isolates package is discontinued and not compatible
with the newest Dart version.
dart:isolate is not an option because importing this
library makes it impossible to run the matrix
SDK on dart web native. It just won't
build. So we now just depend on
that the flutter app pass through the compute method.
Due to chunked lazy sending of megolm sessions it was in theory that we encrypted two olm
messages to the same device in different futures out-of-order. Introducing locking here should
fix this (increadibly rare, so far only theoretical?) race-condition
If the well-known look fails (not json, 404, etc.) we should assume a
reasonable fallback (domain part with https prepended). As clients are
expected to call Client.checkHomeserver on the resulting domain anyways
we can safely assume this default, as it is still validated, if there
is actually a matrix homeserver running on that endpoint.
