v2.2.0

cpp_restapi v2.2.0

A major feature release adding non-blocking I/O, real-time streaming, modern error handling, and coroutines.

Highlights

• New IConnection::subscribe() for real-time event streams
• Callback-based fetch() overloads (single request and paginated), for asynchronous fetch
• Header-only coroutine.hpp with coFetch() awaitables
• New IPaginationStrategy interface
• IConnection::fetch(request, strategy) replaces deprecated get()

Other changes

• C++23 is now required (was C++20)
• Qt6 is the default (Qt5 still supported)
• Libraries now carry proper VERSION/SOVERSION
• GitHub fixes: typo getAuntenticatedUser → getAuthenticatedUser, two incorrect endpoint URLs corrected

Deprecations

• Concrete *Backend::Connection classes → use factory functions
• ConnectionBuilder::build<T>() (shared_ptr) → build(factory, ...) (unique_ptr)
• IConnection::get() → fetch()
• getAuntenticatedUser() → getAuthenticatedUser()

Migration

// Before
auto conn = std::make_shared<CurlBackend::Connection>(url, headers);
std::string body = conn->get("users/octocat");

// After
auto conn = createCurlConnection(url, headers);
auto result = conn->fetch("users/octocat");
if (result) use(*result); else handle(result.error());
