Cesium v1.91 Release Notes

Release Date: 2022-03-01 // about 2 years ago
  • 💥 Breaking Changes :mega:
    • ⚡️ In Cesium 1.92, when.js will be removed and replaced with native promises. Cesium.when is deprecated and will be removed in 1.92. Any Promise returned from a function as of 1.92 will switch the native Promise API. Code bases using cesium will likely need updates after this change. See the upgrade guide for instructions on how to update your code base to be compliant with native promises.
