Chrome 45 (45.0.2454.15) includes new JavaScript language features, an improved audio experience on Android, and a large number of minor API improvements and deprecations. On Android, playback controls for currently-playing audio are shown in the notification tray and on the lock screen.
Please note that Chrome 45 (45.0.2454.15) is available only as Beta and comed with the following features:
-
Sites can now customize the vibration triggered when showing a notification on Android.
-
Chrome’s implementation of the Push API has undergone several minor breaking changes to keep up to date with the evolving specification.
-
Sites using promoted add to home screen can now programmatically control the timing of the banner.
-
The rotationAngle attribute of Touch objects is no longer prefixed, making it easier for sites to understand the geometry of the user’s touch with cross-browser code.
-
To improve scroll performance on pages with heavy mouse handlers or :hover styles, Chrome no longer sends mouse position updates when the user is scrolling with a trackpad or scrollwheel.
-
Chrome now immediately prefetches all HTML imports referenced by a page instead of waiting for scripts included higher in the document to finish executing, improving performance.
-
Sites can now include 3rd-party resources on their site with reduced security risk by using a hash to ensure the integrity of 3rd-parties resources.
-
To reduce the risk of certain types of attack, the ‘self’ source defined by Content Security Policy now excludes blob and filesystem URLs.
-
The logjam attack is fixed in this release by deprecating the use of keys smaller than 1024 bits in Diffie-Hellman key exchanges, which may require developers to update their server’s TLS configuration.
-
To improve cross-browser compatibility and specification compliance, CSSUnknownRule and CSSKeyframesRule.insertRule() are now deprecated with the latter now replaced by CSSKeyframesRule.appendRule().
-
Sites using SMIL will now trigger deprecation warnings in the console, encouraging them to migrate to CSS Animations and Web Animations.
-
This release deprecates both multiple shadow roots and shadow-piercing deep selectors following a unanimous decision by browser vendors at the Web Components April 2015 meeting.
-
The MediaStream attributes label and ended are now deprecated in favor of id and active, while the stop() method is deprecated in favor of MediaStreamTrack.stop().
