Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization
### [`v1.5.1`](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.md#151--2023-05-11)
\==================
This release contains an important Native targets overhaul, as well as numerous enhancements and bugfixes.
Kotlin 1.8.21 is used by default.
##### New set of Native targets
The official [Kotlin target support policy](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/native-target-support.html) has recently been published
describing new target policy: each target belongs to a certain *tier*, and different tiers have different stability guarantees.
The official recommendation for library authors is to support targets up to Tier 3,
and kotlinx.serialization now follows it.
It means that in this release, there are a lot of new targets added from this tier,
such as `androidNativeX86` or `watchosDeviceArm64`.
Note that since they belong to Tier 3, they're not auto-tested on CI.
kotlinx.serialization also ships some deprecated Kotlin/Native targets that do not belong to any tier (e.g. `iosArm32`, `mingwX86`).
We'll continue to release them, but we do not provide support for them, nor do we plan to add new targets from the deprecated list.
##### Improvements in Json elements
There are two new function sets that should make creating raw Json elements easier.
[First one](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/pull/2160) contains overloads for `JsonPrimitive` constructor-like function
that accept unsigned types: `JsonPrimitive(1u)`.
[Second one](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/pull/2156) adds new `addAll` functions to `JsonArrayBuilder` to be used with collections
of numbers, booleans or strings: `buildJsonArray { addAll(listOf(1, 2, 3)) }`
Both were contributed to us by [aSemy](https://togithub.com/aSemy).
##### Other enhancements
- **Potential source-breaking change**: Rename json-okio `target` variables to `sink` ([#2226](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/2226))
- Function to retrieve KSerializer by KClass and type arguments serializers ([#2291](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/2291))
- Added FormatLanguage annotation to Json methods ([#2234](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/2234))
- Properties Format: Support sealed/polymorphic classes as class properties ([#2255](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/2255))
##### Bugfixes
- KeyValueSerializer: Fix missing call to endStructure() ([#2272](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/2272))
- ObjectSerializer: Respect sequential decoding ([#2273](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/2273))
- Fix value class encoding in various corner cases ([#2242](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/2242))
- Fix incorrect json decoding iterator's .hasNext() behavior on array-wrapped inputs ([#2268](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/2268))
- Fix memory leak caused by invalid KTypeWrapper's equals method ([#2274](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/2274))
- Fixed NoSuchMethodError when parsing a JSON stream on Java 8 ([#2219](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/2219))
- Fix MissingFieldException duplication ([#2213](https://togithub.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/2213))
