Bundle Manager Subsystem Changelog

cl.bundlemanager.1 Bottom-Layer Capability Changed So That Only the System Resource HAP Supports Custom Permissions

Only the system resource HAP supports custom permissions. During HAP parsing, the bundle manager module parses the definePermissions field only in the configuration file of the resource HAP (bundle name: ohos.global.systemres), but not this field in other HAPs. This field is used to define permissions. If an application requires custom permissions, add the permissions under the definePermissions field in the configuration file of the system resource HAP. For details about the permission format, see Defining Permissions.

Change Impact
After an upgrade to the new version image, the custom permission of the application does not take effect, and the authorization fails.

Key API/Component Changes
The bottom-layer capability of the bundle manager module is changed. Only the system resource HAP supports custom permissions.

Adaptation Guide
If an application requires custom permissions, add the permissions under the definePermissions field in the configuration file of the system resource HAP. For details about the permission format, see Defining Permissions.

cl.bundlemanager.2 Level-2 Module File Names Changed

The level-2 module file names of the bundle manager module are changed to their respective API names in the file, as listed below.

Original File Name New File Name
bundleManager/abilityInfo.d.ts bundleManager/AbilityInfo.d.ts
bundleManager/applicationInfo.d.ts bundleManager/ApplicationInfo.d.ts
bundleManager/bundleInfo.d.ts bundleManager/BundleInfo.d.ts
bundleManager/dispatchInfo.d.ts bundleManager/DispatchInfo.d.ts
bundleManager/elementName.d.ts bundleManager/ElementName.d.ts
bundleManager/extensionAbilityInfo.d.ts bundleManager/ExtensionAbilityInfo.d.ts
bundleManager/hapModuleInfo.d.ts bundleManager/HapModuleInfo.d.ts
bundleManager/launcherAbilityInfo.d.ts bundleManager/LauncherAbilityInfo.d.ts
bundleManager/metadata.d.ts bundleManager/Metadata.d.ts
bundleManager/packInfo.d.ts bundleManager/BundlePackInfo.d.ts
bundleManager/permissionDef.d.ts bundleManager/PermissionDef.d.ts
bundleManager/remoteAbilityInfo.d.ts bundleManager/RemoteAbilityInfo.d.ts
bundleManager/shortcutInfo.d.ts bundleManager/ShortcutInfo.d.ts

To sum up, except packInfo, which is changed to BundlePackInfo, the other file names are changed to start with uppercase letters.

Change Impact
The change of the level-2 module file names does not affect the use of the level-1 module. If a level-2 module interface under bundleManager is directly imported to the .ts file and an error is reported during compilation on DevEco Studio, you must change the name of the imported file.

Key API/Component Changes
The .d.ts file names in the bundleManager folder are changed to their respective API names in the file.

Adaptation Guide
Generally, no adaptation is required. If a file in the bundleManager folder is directly imported to the application, you must change the imported file name as follows:

Before change:

import {AbilityInfo} from 'bundleManger/abilityInfo';
import {ExtensionAbilityInfo} from 'bundleManger/extensionAbilityInfo';
import {BundlePackInfo} from 'bundleManger/packInfo';

After change:

import {AbilityInfo} from 'bundleManger/AbilityInfo';
import {ExtensionAbilityInfo} from 'bundleManger/ExtensionAbilityInfo';
import {BundlePackInfo} from 'bundleManger/BundlePackInfo';
