### [`v1.56.0`](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/releases/tag/v1.56.0)
##### API Changes
- api: Stabilize the `SynchronizationContext` class ([#10130](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10130)).
- api: Stabilize `io.grpc.CallCredentials` ([#10208](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10208), [#10211](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10211)). `thisUsesUnstableApi()` is `@Deprecated` and has a default implementation. `CallCredentials` implementations should delete their implementation or remove `@Overrides`, as the method will be deleted in the future.
- api: Stabilize the `ProxyDetector` hierarchy and `ManagedChannelBuilder.proxyDetector` method.
##### Behavior Changes
- core: Sticky `TRANSIENT_FAILURE` in `PickFirstLoadBalancer` ([#10106](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10106)). See [gRFC A62](https://togithub.com/grpc/proposal/blob/master/A62-pick-first.md#sticky-transient-failure). If it can't connect, pick-first will now immediately fail RPCs until after it successfully connects. RPCs will no longer be delayed while it performs those attempts, which previously could cause significant (error) latency. It now also performs reconnect attempts after failure and backoff without prompting; previously it required an RPC to trigger the reconnect. `ManagedChannel.idleTimeout` (defaults to 30 minutes) still applies and forces the channel idle after a period of no RPCs.
- stub: Add a null check for `responseObserver` into the methods for initiating a call that takes a `responseObserver` argument. This ensures a fail fast with a clearer cause instead of an NPE when the observer is first used.
- xds: Flip default for RLS being enabled to true for XDS ([#10248](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10248)) ([#10252](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10252)). If there are no RLS configurations in your XDS or you already enabled it with the environment variable this will have no effect. To disable it, set the flag `GRPC_EXPERIMENTAL_XDS_RLS_LB` to false.
- xds: Rename `weighted_round_robin_experimental` LB Policy to `weighted_round_robin` ([#10162](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10162)).
##### New Features
- protobuf,protobuf-lite: Allow to configure protobuf recursion limit ([#10094](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10094)).
- core: Optional address shuffle in `PickFirstLoadBalancer` ([#10110](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10110)).
- xds: `pick_first` LB configuration ([#10181](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10181)).
##### Improvements
- xds: Add `error-per-second` in weight formula for client-side WRR ([#10177](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10177)).
- xds: Use` application_utilization ` and fallback to `cpu_utilization` if unset in weight formula for client-side WRR. ([#10256](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10256)).
- bazel: The README now mentions Bazel and where to find the example. ([#10217](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10217)).
##### Bug Fixes
- binder: Handle unexpected exceptions on binder threads. ([#10092](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10092).
- android,binder,cronet: `.aar` file when publishing. ([#10138](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10138)).
- api: Fix boundary check in `Status.fromCodeValue()`. ([#10155](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10155)).
- core: Don't use system Locale for content-type matching. ([#10097](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10097)).
- okhttp: Fix signed-byte comparison in server when checking for ASCII in header ([#10151](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10151)). Without fix, authority could contain utf-8.
##### Dependencies
- Version pinning (e.g., `[1.56.0]` instead of `1.56.0`) has been removed from POMs, for both Netty and gRPC dependencies. The pinning was unreliable in Maven and ignored in Gradle, yet caused downloads during the build to fetch the version list. For a while we've had a BOM that helps reduce version skew. ([#10175](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10175)).
- bazel: Add java toolchain type to all rules using `java_common`. ([#10225](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10225)).
- Upgraded `netty-tcnative-boringssl-static` in `grpc-netty-shaded` to 2.0.61.Final ([#10260](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10260)). Netty itself was not updated.
- Upgraded AndroidX Annotation to 1.6.0 ([#10178](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10178)).
- Upgraded AndroidX Core to 1.10.0 ([#10178](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10178)).
- Upgraded AndroidX Lifecycle-Common to 2.6.1 ([#10178](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10178)).
- Upgraded OpenCensus to 0.31.1 ([#10178](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10178)).
- Upgraded Cronet API to 108.5359.79 ([#10178](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10178)).
- Upgraded `proto-google-common-protos` to 2.17.0 ([#10178](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10178)).
- Upgraded Gson to 2.10.1 ([#10178](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10178)).
- Upgraded PerfMark API to 0.26.0 ([#10178](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10178)).
- Upgraded RE2/J to 1.7 ([#10178](https://togithub.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/10178)).
