SDK 1.1.3 Now Available for download

Posted by Marzia Niccolai, App Engine Team

Yesterday we released the latest SDK, and you can read all about it in the release notes.

Notable new features in this SDK are:

• Support for zipimport and a new module, zipserve, which serves static files from a zip archive. These allow you to work past the 1000-file app deployment limit.


• The development console now includes a memcache viewer (you can use this by accessing http://localhost:8080/_ah/admin while your app is running on the SDK).


• URLFetch now allows users to disable automatically following HTTP redirects.


• We now allow composite indexes with repeated properties.

It also includes the following issue fixes:

It correctly escapes path separators in static_dir path on windows.

Sending email messages with unicode content now works.

Fixed db.run_in_transaction so that it doesn't allow inserting two (or more) new root entities in a single transaction.

The new SDK is available for download, and as always, we welcome your feedback on the group!
