 # Changelog 
 
+## Version 1.0.8
+_2022/03/02_
+
+* Ability to invoke SOAP calls dynamically with parameters computed at invocation time by a delegate function
+* Fixed bug in XPath constructor which now supports expanded paths, i.e. xpaths such as `[@recipient-id]`.
+* EntityAccessor: change the heuristic to detect XML types: use "nodeType" and "tagName" functions instead of "insertAdjacentElement" (which was not always working in the context of a React application)
+* Add new escaping functions: `escapeForLike`, `expandXPath`, `unexpandXPath`, `xtkConstText`
+* New XtkCaster methods: `asDatetime` (alias to `asTimestamp`), `isStringType`, and `isNumericType`
+* Metadata API (application.getSchema)
+  * keys have a `isInternal` internal attribute which was mistakenly using the "string" type. It's now correctly using the boolean type.
+  * Added missing attributes on the XtkSchema: md5
+  * Added missing attributes on the XtkSchemaNode objects: dataPolicy, editType folderModel, enumerationImage, size, userEnumeration, hasUserEnumeration, isCollection, 
+    isAdvanced, isAnyType, isLink, hasEnumeration, hasSQLTable, SQLName, SQLTable, isMappedAsXML, isTemporaryTable, isElementOnly, isDefaultOnDuplicate, isExternalJoin, 
+    isMemo, isMemoData, isBlob, isCDATA, isNotNull, isRequired, isSQL, PKSequence, revLink, isCalculated, expr, isAutoIncrement, isAutoPK,  isAutoUUID, isAutoStg, packageStatusString, and packageStatus
+  * Attribute type defaults to string if not set
+  * Removed userDescription attribut from schema nodes (only available at the schema level)
+  * Changed the toString function to use 4 spaces instead of 3 for indentation and display node label and internal name
+  * When label or description is missing from schema nodes or from enumerations, they default to the name value
+  * application.getSchema now uses a in-memory cache
+

 ## Version 1.0.7
-_2022_01_24_
+_2022/01/24_
 * Added a hook `refreshClient` on connection parameters. This is a callback called when an authentication token expires. It can be used to implement reconnection logic
 * New attributes on the schema API (application.getSchema)
   * The `enum` attribute of a schema node returns the corresponding enum attribute, i.e. the enumeration name

 The `sdk.escapeXtk` can be used to properly escape string litterals in xtk expressions. The function will also surround the escaped value with single quotes.

+
+This function escapes values so that they can be used in SQL or XTK like conditions. For example a search term "term" can be escaped as follows to implement a search conditions

+### sdk.expandXPath & sdk.unexpandXPath
+
+In Campaign, xpaths are used to access attributes of entities. When XPaths are used in XTK expressions, there can be ambiguities, for instance, in the expression "country/@name", is "country/@name" a xpath or are we dividing the variable country by the value of the attribute @name?

+Amibiguity can be resolved by "expanding" the xpath from "country/@name" to "[country/@name]". The square brackets indicate an xpath.

+* `namespace` is the call namespace
+* `object` is only used for non-static call and contains the "this" of the call.
