Exceptionless.Net - v4.3.0

Published by niemyjski over 6 years ago

Version 4.3.0 is a maintenance release that focused on improving GDPR support and fixing bugs.

General Data Protection Regulation

We've added new controls to help meet GDPR requirements. By default the Exceptionless Client will report all available metadata including potential PII data. You can fine tune the collection of information via Data Exclusions or turning off collection completely. Please visit the wiki for detailed information on how to configure the client to meet your requirements.

New Features

Added IncludeUserName, IncludeMachineName, IncludeIpAddress, IncludeCookies, IncludePostData, IncludeQueryString properties to client.Configuration that give you fine grained data controls to limit what data is sent. Please note some of these properties are already being handled by Data Exclusions.
Added includePrivateInformation to the exceptionless config section which allows you to quickly disable collection of extra metadata in your apps.
Added ability to configure the client configuration end point via client.Configuration.ConfigServerUrl.
Added Exceptionless.Linking.PreserveAttribute to the main client. This attribute allows easier integration into Xamarin to insure the linker doesn't remove any required components (Contrib @GeirGrusom #189).

Bug Fixes

Fixed a bug where configuration could be retrieved concurrently causing extra requests to be made.
Updated logic around Settings management to help prevent any race conditions when updating values.

Upgrading to 4.3.0

If upgrading from v2 or v3 the upgrade process should include just updating your NuGet packages. Please see the upgrade guide for more information.

Exceptionless.Net - v4.2.2

Published by niemyjski over 6 years ago

Version 4.2.2 is a maintenance release that focused on improving logging and fixing bugs around storage.

New Features

Add StoragePath to AspNetCore configuration to control whether to use FolderObjectStorage (Contrib @edwardmeng #178).
Add new Microsoft.ExtensionsLogging internal log client for troubleshooting. This can be configured via ExceptionlessClient.Default.UseLogger(new Exceptionless.Extensions.Logging.ExtensionsExceptionlessLog(loggerFactory));

Bug Fixes

Fixed a bug where InMemoryObjectStorage would only store 100 events, this could cause events to be discarded. We've increased the count to 1000 by default (https://github.com/exceptionless/Exceptionless/issues/356).
Fixed a bug where FolderObjectStorage would throw an exception and suspend processing while processing the queue if the queue folder didn't exist.
Fixed a bug where the internal log wasn't respecting the min log level.

Exceptionless.Net - v4.0.3

Published by niemyjski over 7 years ago

Version 4.0.3 focused on bug fixes and improvements to the .NET Core and ASP.NET Core clients.

New Features

Added log4net .NET Core support.
Added support for reporting 404's in ASP.NET Core.
Add ability to set the min log level in configuration by calling SetDefaultMinLogLevel. This allows you to set a min log level until server configuration is applied.
Added Client IP support for X-Forwarded-For (Contrib @barankaynak #132). This helps when using proxy servers and would enable us to properly identify individual users.
Made it easier to capture the HttpActionContext by adding SetHttpActionContext extension methods to the web clients. This allows request and user info to captured by default when manually submitting events.
Added SetException overload so you can submit any event type that contains an exception (#139).

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where the ASP.NET Core 1.1 runtime was preventing clients from reporting any data (#142).
Fixed an issue where exceptions converted to 404's were not running the event exclusion logic.
Fixed an issue where the duplicate checker plugin could DOS itself. This could only have occurred if you had client logging enabled, which is disabled by default and is only meant for diagnostic logging.
Fixed an issue where the nlog logger wasn't setting event type.
Fixed an issue with package configuration of signed web packages (#137).
Fixed an issue where adding our trace listener could blow up due to other invalid configured trace listeners (#136)
Upgraded to the latest version of BenchMarkDotNet and ensure benchmarks run (Contrib @adamsitnik #146)

Exceptionless.Net - v4.0.2

Published by niemyjski almost 8 years ago

Version 4.0.2 focused on bug fixes and making it easier to consume the package in Xamarin projects.

New Features

Added support for Asp.Net Core's application lifetime. This means that the client is smarter about event submission on shutdown and more (#120).
Added support for specifying a default proxy via client.Configuration.Proxy (#123). The proxy information is automatically picked up via configuration. This allows you to manually specify the proxy to use in code.

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where Line breaks were being removed from the Exception message (#119).
Replaced Global Mutex locks which were windows only to file based locks which works cross platform (#124).
Fixed a concurrency issue when adding or removing plugins (#62).
Fixed an issue where the request stream might not be seekable (#124).
Fixed multiple issues where a exception could be thrown while running plugins (#123).
Fixed an installation issue where the install script would fail if the xml document was empty (#119).
Fixed an issue where the deduplication plugin wasn't calling the Submitted event handler (#110).
Fixed an issue where the WPF Client could keep the application silently running in the background (#113).

Breaking changes

Removed Isolated storage support (Removed only in .NET Core targets) until it's supported cross platform. This was causing a bunch of issues when installing in Xamarin Projects.

Exceptionless.Net - v4.0.0

Published by niemyjski over 8 years ago

Version 4.0 includes support for .NET Core and ASP.NET Core! This means you can now use Exceptionless to build .NET applications on Linux, macOS and Windows!!

New Features

Added .NET Core support! The Exceptionless NuGet package now also supports .NET Standard 1.2+
Added new ASP.NET Core client and sample applications (#28)!

Breaking changes

We merged in the Exceptionless.Portable and Exceptionless.Extras functionality into the Exceptionless package and dropped support for .NET 4.0. The Exceptionless NuGet package now supports .NET Standard 1.2+, PCL Profile 151, and .NET 4.5 This is the main reason for bumping the major version.
- The Exceptionless.Portable NuGet package still exists and has a dependency on the Exceptionless Package. This should make upgrading a breeze.
- If you need to use .NET 4.0, please stick with the 3.5 NuGet Packages which will continue to work as expected 👍.
Properties marked deprecated (in v2.0.0) were removed:
- ExceptionlessClient.Current property was replaced with ExceptionlessClient.Default.
- Configuration EnableSSL properties were removed.

Exceptionless.Net - v3.5.0

Published by niemyjski over 8 years ago

Version 3.5.0 focused on improvements to sessions, real time configuration and logging.

Added the ability to exclude events by type and source in real time as well as minimum log levels! We've made improvements to real time project configuration to ensure that if you accidentally disable logging completely, your settings can be updated in the background and functionality restored! We will expand on UI support for this in the near future, in the mean time please check out the example project configuration below:
- Key: @@EVENT_TYPE:SOURCE Value: false You can use any event type or source. We support using wildcards * as part of the source. If you want to ignore complete event types then set the source to *.
- Key: @@error:*MyCustomException Value: false The following disables the submission of any error event where the stack trace contains an exception with a type name that ends with MyCustomException. You can also specify the full type name with namespace and remove the wildcard.
- Key: @@log:* Value: Off Log types are special cased but still accept true or false for values. This example will turn off log messages completely. Known values are: Trace, Debug, Info, Warn, Error, Fatal, Off.
- Key: @@log:MyNamespace.EventPostsJob Value: Info This sets a minimum log level for the EventPostsJob.
Added support for automatically checking for updated configuration settings when the client is idle. By default the client will now check every 2 minutes after the last event submission for updated configuration settings. You can also turn off the automatic updating of configuration settings when idle by calling client.Configuration.UpdateSettingsWhenIdleInterval = TimeSpan.Zero;.
- Checking for updated settings doesn't count towards plan limits.
- Only the current configuration version is sent when checking for updated settings (no user information will ever be sent).
- If the settings haven't changed, then no settings will be retrieved.
Session Heartbeats and Session End events are now sent through an optimized api end point. This means that they no longer count towards your plan limits!
Added an easy way to exclude events from being submitted via by defining a simple Func<Event, bool> callback. The following example ignores any event that has has a value property of 2 client.Configuration.AddEventExclusion(e => e.Value.GetValueOrDefault() != 2);
Fixed a bug where SettingsCollection.GetBoolean(name) didn't support parsing 0 or 1 as boolean values (#88). We also now support yes and no as valid boolean values.

Exceptionless.Net - v3.4.0

Published by niemyjski over 8 years ago

Version 3.4.0 focused on massive improvements to deduplicating events. We'd like to thank @srijken for all of his hard work in implementing this functionality.

Deduplication improvements

In previous versions of the client we had a simple plugin that looked at the hash code of each stack trace and discarded events when any part of the errors stack trace was a match. We knew we could be smarter about this and provide you even more value so iterated on it.

Here are some key improvements over the previous implementation:

All events types are considered for deduplication instead of just error events.
All of our models now have equality and GetHashCode implementations which allows us to calculate more accurate hash codes. This allows us to be super confident about discarding duplicate events.
We keep a counter of all discarded events and submit that Count so you know exactly how many events occurred without paying the price of submitting the duplicates.

How does it work?

We have a plugin with a low priority that sits at the end of the plugin pipeline. This is to ensure events we check for duplication have been processed completely before we check it. Here is how our plugin works:

Lets assume we submit a new event. Our plugin checks the events hash code to see if the event has been processed within the past 60 seconds. Since it hasn't been processed we add the hash code to a list of processed hash codes and allow the event to be submitted.
The next time an event is submitted that matches the previous events hash code in step 1, we cancel the event from being submitted and enqueue it into a queue for submission at a later time.
Any subsequent events that match on hash code will be canceled and a counter on the enqueued event (from step 2) is incremented and occurrence time is also updated.
After ~60 seconds, a background timer submits any enqueued events from step 2.

What we gain from this is allowing you to see an accurate representation of events are occurring within your app without them counting against your plan (because only a fraction of them were submitted).

How do I get this functionality?

Just upgrade your clients to the latest version!

Exceptionless.Net - v3.3.6

Published by niemyjski over 8 years ago

Version 3.3.6 focused on improvements to sessions and bug fixes.

Fixed an issue where dictionary keys names were being changed (#63). This was causing query string parameters and cookies to be renamed (E.G., myId to my_id).
Calling the client.Register() method will now respect your session setting. If you want to have Register handle calling client.SubmitSessionStart() for you, then remember to first call client.Configuration.UseSessions().
Updated the manual stacking implementation to use a model instead of a string. This allows us to send a stack title and key value pairs on how the event should be stacked. You should be using the SetManualStackingKey("manualStackingKey") and SetManualStackingInfo() Event extension methods or EventBuilder method overloads.

This is a required update if you were previously using manual stacking.

Added new extension methods for events to make it easier to set valid geo coordinates, tags, reference id's and much more
We updated UseSessions() to take an optional heartbeatInterval TimeSpan parameter which defaults to 30 seconds. We also added a useSessionIdManagement boolean parameter that will automatically set a manual session id. We recommend that you only call useSessionIdManagement on long lived desktop apps.
Fix geolocation for cultures that have a different separator for decimals (@InlineAsm #80).

Published by niemyjski over 8 years ago

Version 3.3.3 focused on bug fixes and features.

Added the ability to do manual stacking by calling EventBuilder.SetManualStackingKey("MyStackingKey")(@adamzolotarev). By doing this you are taking complete control over how the event is stacked so be careful.
Added support to ignore events that match a user agent bot filter (#73). You can set this client side (ExceptionlessClient.Default.Configuration.AddUserAgentBotPatterns("*bot*")) or server side (project settings).
Increased the default RequestInfo max size limit.
We now merge any exception.Data properties into the Error.Data dictionary. This prevents you from having extra nesting (E.G., error.Data.Data).
Fixed a bug where AggregateExceptions that contained more than one inner exception would be discarded (#15).
Fixed a bug where SetGeo would cause an event to not be processed on machines with a non english locale.
Fixed a bug where an ArgumentNullException could be thrown if post data or cookies contained a null key.
