Breaking Changes
For vanilla NativeScript users (using .xml views), several adjustments were made to the xml binding expressions parsing and you may need a few adjustments, for example:
BEFORE:
{{ default ? ' something' : ' something else' }}
AFTER:
Note: renamed default to variable name.
{{ enableSubmit ? ' something' : ' something else' }}
This is related to the fact that default is a reserved keyword and the expression parsing uses natural language syntax now.
BEFORE:
Note: This would apply to example usage: {{ variable | someConv }}
getResources().someConv = {
toView: function () {}
}
AFTER:
getResources().someConv = function () {}
This is related to improving/simplifying the convertors syntax with bindings.
