This version bumps the Realm file format version. This means that older
versions of Realm will be unable to open Realm files written by this version,
and a new version of Realm Studio will be required. There are no actual format
changes and the version bump is just to force a re-migration of incorrectly
upgraded Realms.
Fixed
- Upgrading pre-5.x files with string primary keys would result in a file where
realm.object(ofType:forPrimaryKey:)would fail to find the object.
(#6716, since 5.2.0) - A write transaction which modifies an object with more than 16 managed
properties and causes the Realm file to grow larger than 2 GB could cause an
assertion failure mentioning "m_has_refs". (JS #3194, since 5.0.0). - Objects with more than 32 properties could corrupt the Realm file and result
in a variety of crashes. (Java #7057, since 5.0.0).
