Release Notes

protocolbuffers/protobuf (com.google.protobuf:protoc)

v3.20.3: Protocol Buffers v3.20.3

Java

• Refactoring java full runtime to reuse sub-message builders and prepare to
  migrate parsing logic from parse constructor to builder.
• Move proto wireformat parsing functionality from the private "parsing
  constructor" to the Builder class.
• Change the Lite runtime to prefer merging from the wireformat into mutable
  messages rather than building up a new immutable object before merging. This
  way results in fewer allocations and copy operations.
• Make message-type extensions merge from wire-format instead of building up
  instances and merging afterwards. This has much better performance.
• Fix TextFormat parser to build up recurring (but supposedly not repeated)
  sub-messages directly from text rather than building a new sub-message and
  merging the fully formed message into the existing field.
• This release addresses a Security Advisory for Java users

v3.20.2: Protocol Buffers v3.20.2

C++

• Reduce memory consumption of MessageSet parsing
• This release addresses a Security Advisory for C++ and Python users

2022-03-25 version 3.20.0 (C++/Java/Python/PHP/Objective-C/C#/Ruby/JavaScript)

Ruby

• Dropped Ruby 2.3 and 2.4 support for CI and releases. (#​9311)
• Added Ruby 3.1 support for CI and releases (#​9566).
• Message.decode/encode: Add recursion_limit option (#​9218/#​9486)
• Allocate with xrealloc()/xfree() so message allocation is visible to the
  Ruby GC. In certain tests this leads to much lower memory usage due to more
  frequent GC runs (#​9586).
• Fix conversion of singleton classes in Ruby (#​9342)
• Suppress warning for intentional circular require (#​9556)
• JSON will now output shorter strings for double and float fields when possible
  without losing precision.
• Encoding and decoding of binary format will now work properly on big-endian
  systems.
• UTF-8 verification was fixed to properly reject surrogate code points.
• Unknown enums for proto2 protos now properly implement proto2's behavior of
  putting such values in unknown fields.

Java

• Revert "Standardize on Array copyOf" (#​9400)
• Resolve more java field accessor name conflicts (#​8198)
• Don't support map fields in DynamicMessage.Builder.{getFieldBuilder,getRepeatedFieldBuilder}

  subfield. (previously it was replaced.)’

  in type annotations.
  *[Breaking change] Protobuf python generated codes are simplified. Descriptors and message
  classes' definitions are now dynamic created in internal/builder.py.
  Insertion Points for messages classes are discarded.
• has_presence is added for FieldDescriptor in python
• Loosen indexing type requirements to allow valid index() implementations
  rather than only PyLongObjects.
• Fix the deepcopy bug caused by not copying message_listener.
• Added python JSON parse recursion limit (default 100)

• Pure python repeated scalar fields will not able to pickle. Convert to list
  first.
• Timestamp.ToDatetime() now accepts an optional tzinfo parameter. If
  specified, the function returns a timezone-aware datetime in the given time
  zone. If omitted or None, the function returns a timezone-naive UTC datetime
  (as previously).
• Adds client_streaming and server_streaming fields to MethodDescriptor.
• Add "ensure_ascii" parameter to json_format.MessageToJson. This allows smaller
  JSON serializations with UTF-8 or other non-ASCII encodings.
• Added experimental support for directly assigning numpy scalars and array.
• Improve the calculation of public_dependencies in DescriptorPool.
• [Breaking Change] Disallow setting fields to numpy singleton arrays or repeated fields to numpy

v3.14.0: Protocol Buffers v3.14.0

  generating code.

  any effect.
• Removed inlined string support, which is incompatible with arenas.
• Fix a memory corruption bug in reflection when mixing optional and
  non-optional fields.
• Make SpaceUsed() calculation more thorough for map fields.

• Parser security fix when operating with CodedInputStream.
• Warn against the use of AllowUnknownExtension.

  possible. This fixes a lot of warnings when compiling with -Wsign-compare.
• Fix segment fault for proto3 optional (#​7805)
• Adds a CMake option to build libprotoc separately (#​7949)

Java

  used outside WKT Value/Struct.
• Fix bug occurring when attempting to deep copy an enum type in python 3.
• Add a setuptools extension for generating Python protobufs (#​7783)
• Remove uses of pkg_resources in non-namespace packages. (#​7902)
• [bazel/py] Omit google/init.py from the Protobuf runtime. (#​7908)
• Removed the unnecessary setuptools package dependency for Python package (#​7511)
• Fix PyUnknownFields memory leak (#​7928)

• Fix C# optional field reflection when there are regular fields too (#​7705)
• Fix parsing negative Int32Value that crosses segment boundary (#​8035)

Javascript

• JS: parse (un)packed fields conditionally (#​7379)

v3.13.0: Protocol Buffers v3.13.0

PHP

• The C extension is completely rewritten. The new C extension has significantly
  better parsing performance and fixes a handful of conformance issues. It will
  also make it easier to add support for more features like proto2 and proto3 presence.
• The new C extension does not support PHP 5.x, which is the reason for the major
  version bump. PHP 5.x users can still use pure-PHP.

C++

• Removed deprecated unsafe arena string accessors
• Enabled heterogeneous lookup for std::string keys in maps.
• Removed implicit conversion from StringPiece to std::string
• Fix use-after-destroy bug when the Map is allocated in the arena.
• Improved the randomness of map ordering
• Added stack overflow protection for text format with unknown fields
• Use std::hash for proto maps to help with portability.
• Added more Windows macros to proto whitelist.
• Arena constructors for map entry messages are now marked "explicit"
  (for regular messages they were already explicit).
• Fix subtle aliasing bug in RepeatedField::Add
• Fix mismatch between MapEntry ByteSize and Serialize with respect to unset
  fields.

Python

• JSON format conformance fixes:
  • Reject lowercase t for Timestamp json format.
  • Print full_name directly for extensions (no camelCase).
  • Reject boolean values for integer fields.
  • Reject NaN, Infinity, -Infinity that is not quoted.
  • Base64 fixes for bytes fields: accept URL-safe base64 and missing padding.
• Bugfix for fields/files named "async" or "await".
• Improved the error message when AttributeError is returned from getattr
  in EnumTypeWrapper.

Java

• Fixed a bug where setting optional proto3 enums with setFooValue() would
  not mark the value as present.
• Add Subtract function to FieldMaskUtil.

C#

• Dropped support for netstandard1.0 (replaced by support for netstandard1.1).
  This was required to modernize the parsing stack to use the Span<byte>
  type internally. (#​7351)
• Add ParseFrom(ReadOnlySequence<byte>) method to enable GC friendly
  parsing with reduced allocations and buffer copies. (#​7351)
• Add support for serialization directly to a IBufferWriter<byte> or
  to a Span<byte> to enable GC friendly serialization.
  The new API is available as extension methods on the IMessage type. (#​7576)
• Add GOOGLE_PROTOBUF_REFSTRUCT_COMPATIBILITY_MODE define to make
  generated code compatible with old C# compilers (pre-roslyn compilers
  from .NET framework and old versions of mono) that do not support
  ref structs. Users that are still on a legacy stack that does
  not support C# 7.2 compiler might need to use the new define
  in their projects to be able to build the newly generated code. (#​7490)
• Due to the major overhaul of parsing and serialization internals (#​7351 and #​7576),
  it is recommended to regenerate your generated code to achieve the best
  performance (the legacy generated code will still work, but might incur
  a slight performance penalty).
