What's new in 2.4

The 2.4 version of the ArcGIS API for Windows Phone is now available. This is a quality release that contains a limited set of fixes. This topic includes a list of the issues resolved between the 2.3 release and the 2.4 release. There were no notable public changes to the API between versions 2.3 and 2.4. For information about the changes included in 2.3, see the What's new in 2.3.

Note:

The 2.4 release is focused on a few significant improvements. Version 2.3, which was released two months earlier, had a much wider scope. Due to the short time frame between the 2.3 and 2.4 releases, the What's new section of the samples at version 2.4 includes content for both version 2.3 and version 2.4.

ArcGIS Server 10.0 or later is required to utilize the new functionality included with versions 2.0 and later (that is, including 2.4) of the ArcGIS API for Windows Phone. This includes editing, time-aware layers, closest facility, service areas, geometry service unions, and generalization. ArcGIS Server 9.3 or later is required for basic functionality, such as mapping and query, included starting with the 1.x release.

Resolved issues

The following issues are resolved in the 2.4 API:

• Clustering:
  • Selection color does not change when non-cluster graphics are selected.
  • Non-clustered graphics with only a symbol defined (no renderer) are not displayed.
  • Hit test on graphics returns a copy of the graphic instance.
• Serializing a FeatureSet with no features or features with no geometry creates invalid JSON.
• FeatureSet.ToJson can only be called on the UI thread.
• ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer is not visible when crossing the dateline.
• GPSLayer's accuracy is set to default and should be high.
• Namespace clash on CodedValueSource between the Toolkit and WebMap assemblies.
• MapTips close unexpectedly when a hide delay timeout is set on two or more layers.
