Visual Studio Availability

This release has not yet been made available to Visual Studio users.

NOTE: Visual Studio users will need to install .NET Core 2.1 to run the updated Azure Functions Core Tools.

Change Log

• Significant coldstart improvement when WEBSITE_USE_PLACEHOLDER=1 app setting is added.
• Throughput improvements. In-process hosting model support.
• 8.x and 10.x node support.
• ServiceBus MessageReceiver/MessageSender bindings
• [breaking] Temporary 64-bit platform option is not supported, this option worked for previous versions but actually w3wp.exe process started as 32-bit. Please switch to 32-bit in "General Settings" or you can use previous version by setting FUNCTIONS_EXTENSION_VERSION=2.0.11857-alpha. Next release will have true 64-bit support.

Known issues

• HttpTrigger does not return response content properly. For example following code will return "Bad Request" instead of "Please pass a name on the query string or in the request body":
  return new BadRequestObjectResult("Please pass a name on the query string or in the request body");
  To fix this issue please use previous version by setting FUNCTIONS_EXTENSION_VERSION=2.0.11857-alpha.
• The portal does not work properly when WEBSITE_USE_PLACEHOLDER=1. You can see "Error: Unauthorized - /api/passthrough" on the portal. If you want to use portal set back to WEBSITE_USE_PLACEHOLDER=0, do your changes on the portal and then set WEBSITE_USE_PLACEHOLDER=1.
