Updated Libraries

AI Platform API - new EvaluationServiceClient
Dialogflow ES API - new EncryptionSpecServiceClient and GeneratorsClient

AI Platform API

doc(aiplatform): add Vertex AI samples (#14703)

KMS

AutokeyClient::ListKeyHandles(...) signature has changed to return an
iterable type. Our telemetry indicates that there are no C++ applications
using this API, and therefore we do not consider this a breaking change.
(#14726)

OpenTelemetry

feat(otel): release GCM exporter (#14693)

Pub/Sub

feat(mixin): add manual changes for pubsub and generate mixin code (#14756)
docs(pubsub): Add ingestion from GCS topic creation sample (#14749)

Spanner

docs(spanner): Add samples for backup schedule feature APIs (#14720)
docs(spanner): create a few code snippets as examples for using Spanner Graph using cpp (#14660)

Storage

The gRPC plugin is now GA. The Using the gRPC plugin
guide describes this feature in more detail. When using GCS from Google
Compute Engine (GCE) this plugin can enable higher total throughput.
feat(storage): Add ability to restore soft deleted objects (#14710)

Common Libraries

fix(rest): promote buffer curl reads from to member variable (#14732)
fix: respect GOOGLE_CLOUD_QUOTA_PROJECT (#14684)

v2.27.0

v2.27.0

We now link our mocking libraries against GoogleTest in CMake.

The mocking libraries require GoogleTest. Not linking GoogleTest was a bug.
This bug surfaced in versions of CMake >= 3.30.

Note that the mocking libraries are built by default. If you want to opt-out
of building or installing the mocking libraries, you can supply
-DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_WITH_MOCKS=OFF to your CMake configure command.

If your build fails because GoogleTest is not found, supply
-DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_WITH_MOCKS=OFF as mentioned above.
We have stopped testing on CentOS 7, Debian 10 (Buster), and RockyLinux 8 as
these distros are EOL or in some form of "security only" support period.
Note that we used CentOS 7 as a proxy for testing RedHat Enterprise Linux 7.

BREAKING TESTING CHANGES

If you don't mock Long Running Operations (LRO) in your tests, then these
changes will not affect you.

With the promotion from Experimental to GA of the new methods to support
starting Long Running Operations (LRO) synchronously and awaiting their
completion separately, the use of ExperimentalTag is no longer required. The
overload set for LRO methods has changed and may require matchers to
disambiguate invocations of EXPECT_CALL
(https://google.github.io/googletest/gmock_cook_book.html#SelectOverload).

New Libraries

We are happy to announce the following GA libraries. Unless specifically noted,
the APIs in these libraries are stable, and are ready for production use.

The following experimental libraries are now available:

Cloud BigQuery Control API -
This library provides support for the Dataset, Job, Model, Project, Routine,
RowAccessPolicy, and Table REST resources.

OpenTelemetry

fix(otel): avoid crashes in tracing wrappers for streams (#14477)

Bazel

The --io_opentelemetry_cpp//api:with_abseil flag was marked as deprecated in
OpenTelemetry v1.16.0. It may be removed in future versions.

In previous versions of opentelemetry-cpp, this flag was required for
compatibility with Abseil. It is no longer necessary, as opentelemetry-cpp is
compiled with Abseil by default.

We have stopped using the flag to validate Bazel build configurations with
OpenTelemetry tracing enabled.

If you are building google-cloud-cpp with opentelemetry-cpp < v1.16.0, you
will need to supply the flag for compatibility with Abseil. The following can be
added to your .bazelrc file.

build --@io_opentelemetry_cpp//api:with_abseil

Spanner

feat(spanner): add samples for instance partitions (#14574)

Storage

fix(storage): reset backoff after partial write (#14473)
feat(storage): single span for ReadObject() (#14435)
fix(storage): only backoff before resume attempts (#14427)

Common Libraries

Promoted to GA, functions to start a LRO (longrunning operation) in one
function call, and then await the LRO to complete on a separate function.
feat(generator): include request in async streaming RPC logs (#14565)
fix(common): censor Bearer tokens over HTTP/2 (#14564)
fix(common): json_fwd.h is not always available (#14439)
fix: workaround missing SHA256 macros in MinGW-w64 (#14437)

v2.26.0

BREAKING TESTING CHANGES

If you don't mock Long Running Operations (LRO) in your tests, then these
changes will not affect you.

With the addition of new methods to support starting Long Running Operations
(LRO) synchronously and awaiting their completion separately, the overload set
for the preexisting LRO methods have been expanded. Uses of EXPECT_CALL that
do not have matchers for the arguments will be ambiguous. To quickly remedy this
change instances of EXPECT_CALL(*mock, Method) to
EXPECT_CALL(*mock, Method(::testing::_)).

New Libraries

We are happy to announce the following GA libraries. Unless specifically noted,
the APIs in these libraries are stable, and are ready for production use.
