vinceglb/FileKit 0.15.0

on GitHub

FileKit 0.15 expands native platform coverage, improves dialog ownership on desktop, and makes picker failures easier to handle across platforms.

This release brings filekit-core to Linux X64 and Arm64, restores persistent security-scoped bookmarks for sandboxed macOS applications, adds typed JVM dialog parents, and improves picker reliability across Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, and iOS.

✨ What's New

• Add Linux X64 and Arm64 native support to filekit-core by @nik1062 in #621
• Add typed JVM dialog parents for AWT, Windows HWND, X11, and Wayland ownership by @vinceglb in #629
• Add a Nucleus/Tao desktop sample reusing the shared FileKit sample UI by @vinceglb in #614
• Support Nucleus 2.3 dialog parenting on Linux/X11 by @vinceglb in #634
• Add observable Compose launcher failures with onError overloads and public dialog/picker exception types by @vinceglb in #633

✅ Improvements

• Restore persistent security-scoped bookmarks on JVM and Kotlin/Native, with versioned bookmark data and refresh metadata by @vinceglb in #625
• Make Windows dialog thread tests reliable when coroutine debugging is enabled by @vinceglb in #620
• Add and update dialog error-handling documentation and samples by @vinceglb in #633

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fix empty-path deletion on iOS and align delete(mustExist = false) with Android by @vinceglb in #610
• Force JVM Windows dialogs to return filesystem-backed results by @vinceglb in #613
• Run Windows file dialogs on a dedicated STA thread and correctly manage COM initialization by @vinceglb in #616
• Deliver iOS camera results after dismissal and move JPEG encoding and file writes off the main thread by @PierreVieira in #619
• Prevent macOS/JVM Objective-C runnable class collisions by @vinceglb in #628
• Handle missing Android camera activities without crashing by @vinceglb in #630
• Handle Compose picker failures without crashing callback-style launchers by @vinceglb in #631
• Improve launcher error handling across dialog platforms by @vinceglb in #633

📝 Documentation

• Add Hammer Editor to the project showcase by @vinceglb in #615
• Add DevAnalyzer to the project references by @vinceglb in #635

⬆️ Dependency Updates

• Gradle 9.5.1 → 9.6.1
• Kotlin 2.4.0 → 2.4.10
• Android Gradle Plugin 9.2.1 → 9.3.1
• kotlinx-io 0.9.0 → 0.9.1
• Compose Hot Reload 1.1.1 → 1.2.0
• Vanniktech Maven Publish 0.36.0 → 0.37.0
• Nucleus 2.3.2

⚠️ Migration Notes

• JVM dialog parenting now uses FileKitDialogParent. If you used FileKitDialogSettings(parentWindow = window), migrate to FileKitDialogSettings(parent = FileKitDialogParent.awt(window)), or use the matching native parent factory for Windows, X11, or Wayland.
• Callback-style Compose launchers now expose onError overloads for FileKit-owned operational failures. Existing launcher signatures remain available.
