Upgrading from version

1.5 to 1.6.0

We have amended the original callback method:

Objective-C

   - (void)mainViewController:(nonnull GIDMainViewController *)mainViewController 
didCompleteProcessWithPayload:(nullable NSDictionary *)payload 
                   resultCode:(GIDResultCode)resultcode;

Swift

	public func mainViewController(_ mainViewController: GIDMainViewController, 
				  didCompleteProcessWithPayload payload: [AnyHashable : Any]?, 
											 resultCode: GIDResultCode)

To now look like:

Objective-C

   - (void)mainViewController:(nonnull GIDMainViewController *)mainViewController 
didCompleteProcessWithPayload:(nullable NSDictionary *)payload 
                   resultCode:(GIDResultCode)resultCode 
                        error:(nullable id <GIDErrorProtocol>)error;

Swift

	public func mainViewController(_ mainViewController: GIDMainViewController, 
  				  didCompleteProcessWithPayload payload: [AnyHashable : Any]?, 
											 resultCode: GIDResultCode, 
												  error: GIDErrorProtocol?)

We have added an error parameter. It is an object that conforms to the GIDErrorProtocol protocol. This object contains a few properties/functions to help identify exactly why, what, how an error occurred.

The error object will have an error code,  error.gidErrorCode, which will be one of the following:  

Version 1.12.0 of the greenId iOS SDK will not work as expected and there will be a requirement to update your respective application in order to accommodate the latest changes within the SDK.

Framework changes:

Version 1.12.0 requires updates to your project, to remove old frameworks and add new frameworks. 

• Remove the following two frameworks from your project:  IDMetrics.framework   MobileFlow.framework
• Add the following two frameworks as embedded binaries:  IDMetricsDocumentCapture.framework   IDMetricsSelfieCapture.framework
• Add the following bundle to your project: GIDResources.bundle - it should automatically go into the Copy Bundle Resources build phase

• .

Additional errors:

A detailed GIDErrorCodeResourceBundle error message and a GIDResultCodeResourceBundle result code is sent back to the parent application when the condition that there is a missing or no resource bundle is met.

Configuration changes:

The configuration for the kGIDSDKSelfieScanResetTimeout parameter has changed to meet the following condition: 

• If the value is equal to or less than 0, the greenID iOS SDK will set the selfie capture mode to manual capture from the default semi-auto capture mode.

Deprecations:

This version has removed the callback method that was deprecated in version 1.6.0.  If you are still using the callback method from version 1.5 or earlier, it will no longer be called, and your app will not receive any notification when the greenID SDK hands off an error or verification result.  The correct delegate method to use is: 

 - (void)mainViewController:(nonnull GIDMainViewController *)mainViewController 
didCompleteProcessWithPayload:(nullable NSDictionary *)payload 
                   resultCode:(GIDResultCode)resultCode 
                        error:(nullable id <GIDErrorProtocol>)error;

App permissions:

Version 1.12.0 requires additional permissions from your app.  You should add a NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription key to your app's Info.plist file.  

Upgrading from version 1.12.0 or lower to version 1.13.0

• This version includes a new optional parameter. The documentCaptureResetTimeout parameter controls the amount of seconds after which the document scanning process will failover to manual capture mode. this allows the user to frame the document themselves, and manually tap the capture button.

  Constant	Effect
  kDefaultDocumentCaptureResetTimeOut	This value controls the amount of seconds after which the document scanning process will failover to manual capture mode, allowing the user to frame the document themselves, and manually tap the capture button.

  
  

Upgrading from version 1.13.0 or lower to version 1.13.8

• This version includes three new optional parameters, for setting the document capture timeouts for different document types: documentCaptureLicenceResetTimeout, documentCapturePassportResetTimeout, and documentCaptureGreenIDResetTimeout  
• The mode parameter is now compulsory.  The SDK will not start if the mode parameter is not set.  

Upgrading from version 1.13.8 or lower to version 1.14.1

This version has two new images (in 3 sizes each) included in the GIDResources.bundle.  You can update the GIDResources.bundle by replacing it with the new bundle provided, or if you have made customisations in your bundle, manually copy the crossIcon.png and tickIcon.png files into your copy of GIDResources.bundle. 

Upgrading from version 1.14.1 or lower to version 1.15.0

• This version has a new required framework to include: iFaceRec.framework.  Refer to the integration instructions for more details.  
• The Always embed Swift standard libraries build setting for your app should be updated to 'Yes'
• This version requires Xcode 9 to build.  Xcode 8 will not work with this version.  
• This version will only run on iOS 10 and 11 devices, due to one of our third party frameworks.  We will be remedying this in a future release.

Upgrading from version 1.15.0 or lower to version 1.16.0

• The Always embed Swift standard libraries build setting for your app can now be set to 'No' if you don't use Swift.  We have removed our Swift dependency. 
• This version now works with Xcode 8 and 9. 
• This version will only run on iOS 9, 10 and 11 devices, due to one of our third party frameworks.
• New versions of the Document capture, selfie capture and iFaceRec frameworks are included, be sure to copy the new frameworks into your project. 
• If you pass in incorrect startup parameters, the SDK will immediately handoff back to your app, with an error object that contains information on how to fix the problem. 
• If you have a custom background colour using custom CSS, make sure to set a matching background colour in the GID Resources bundle.  This will avoid a white strip at the top of some screens in landscape orientation. 

Upgrading from version 1.16.0 or lower to version 1.17.0

• This version will now run on iOS 8 to iOS 11.  
• A new version of the iFaceRec framework is included, be sure to copy the new framework into your project. 
• This version has updated images (in 3 sizes each) included in the GIDResources.bundle.  You can update the GIDResources.bundle by replacing it with the new bundle provided, or if you have made customisations in your bundle, manually copy the crossIcon.png and tickIcon.png files into your copy of GIDResources.bundle. 

Upgrading from version 1.17.0 to version 1.17.1

• A new version of the Document capture and selfie capture framework is included, be sure to copy the new frameworks into your project. 
• Note that iOS 8 is no longer supported from this build onwards.  
• There is an additional framework called MicroBlink.framework, which you will need to copy into your project, link and embed like the other frameworks. 
• There is a missing piece of text in the document capture tool - to fix this, you will need to add the following to your Localized.strings file:
  
  "second_overlay_licence_text_line1" = "";
  

• "second_overlay_passport_landscape_text_line1" = "";

Upgrading from version 1.17.1 to version 1.18.0

• No configuration changes required, other than copying in the new GIDSDK framework.   

Upgrading from version 1.18.0 to version 1.19.0

• New framework has been provided for iFaceRec.  Make sure you copy it to your project.
• New logging/analytics methods have been provided.  You can optionally use these to receive logging from the SDK.  See the integration documentation for more details. 
• The use of GIDData is now deprecated.  You can continue to use it to start the GIDSDK, but the compiler will warn you to upgrade to the new initialisation code.
  If you want to upgrade to the new initialisation code, do the following:
  • Put the configuration parameters into a dictionary of NSString objects.  
  • Change GIDMainViewController to use initWithConfig: rather than init 

  • Sample startup code: 
    
    

    Code Block
    NSDictionary *config = @{ @"apiCode" : @"", // TODO: Insert your API Code here @"accountId" : @"", // TODO: Insert your accountID here @"baseUrl" : @"https://simpleui-test-au.vixverify.com", @"mode" : @"onboarding", }; GIDMainViewController *main = [[GIDMainViewController alloc] initWithConfig:config];

    
    

Upgrading from version 1.19.0 to version 1.20.0

• Copy in all provided framework files.  Changes have been made in GIDSDK, DocumentCapture and SelfieCapture frameworks.  
• MicroBlink.framework is now not required by GIDSDK.  Remove it from your project if you had included it as part of a previous GIDSDK release. 
• "second_overlay_licence_text_line1" is no longer required in your Localized.strings file.  You can remove it if you wish.  

Upgrading from version 1.20.0 to version 1.21.0

• Copy in all provided framework files.  Changes have been made to the GIDSDK framework.  
• Add some code to your delegate method to handle the new handoff state: GIDResultCodeNetworkSecurityError.  This error will occur if the phone cannot contact the server at the start of the process, to check the SSL certificate, or if the network the the phone is on is rewriting the SSL certificates. 

Upgrading from version 1.21.0 to version 1.22.0

• Copy in all provided framework files.  Changes have been made to the GIDSDK framework.  
• Review the integration information about UI customisation.  More options and details are now available for customising the look of the workflow.

Upgrading from version 1.22.0 to version 1.23.0

• Copy in all provided framework files.  Changes have been made to the GIDSDK framework.  
• Optionally add in the new prestartCheckForError: method before you push the GIDSDK object to your navigation stack.  See the sample code for an example.  Doing this check will make sure that the SDK is ready for navigation, and can improve your user experience - avoiding pushing then immediately popping the SDK if it could not start up.  

Upgrading from version 1.23.0 to version 1.24.0

• Copy in all provided framework files.  Changes have been made to the GIDSDK framework.  

Upgrading from version 1.24.0 to version 1.25.0

• Copy in all provided framework files.  Changes have been made to the GIDSDK framework.  

Upgrading from version 1.25.0 to version 1.26.0

• Copy in all provided framework files.  Changes have been made to the GIDSDK framework.  
• Xcode will now show quick help for GIDSDK related methods and enums.
• GIDData has been removed.  It was deprecated in release 1.19.0.  If you are still using GIDData, please check the sample code or integration guide to find how to start the SDK.  

Upgrading from Xcode 9 to Xcode 10.0

• If you used our instructions or sample code to set up your project in Xcode 9, you may need to remove a reference to libstdc++ framework when you upgrade to Xcode 10.   The reference to libstdc++ may cause linking errors when building your app.  It is safe to remove the reference in Xcode 10. 

Upgrading to version 1.33.0

• Copy in all provided framework files.  Changes have been made to the GIDSDK framework.  
• Additional configuration is available for the document review screens.  Review the UI customisation documentation if you want to implement these changes.  

Upgrading from version 1.x to 2.0.0

• Remove the IDMetrics and iFaceRec frameworks, and the old GIDSDK framework
• Copy in all of the new frameworks mentioned in the iOS Integration guide for greenID Mobile 2.x
• Make sure you copy in the GIDResources bundle, as it contains new required files.
• Make sure all new frameworks are embedded properly in the project target.
• Make sure you have embedded Swift standard libraries if you want to target iOS 11 or 12 devices.
