We are about to push a new Google Charts Release Candidate (RC) - *V45*.

Candidate release date: April 7, 2016


Anticipated production release date: April 14, 2016

The purpose of this push is to update the old jsapi loaded library with a
version that is close to the previously released v44.  We are doing this
primarily to incorporate some security fixes that are already part of v44
into the jsapi loaded release, and as such, there are very few additional
bug fixes and these are unlikely to be visible to people.

The last time we were successful updating the old jsapi loaded library was
for v42.  So if you are still using that version of the code, you should
look at the release notes for v43 (
https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/release_notes#october-2-2015)
and v44 (
https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/release_notes#february-23-2016)
to see what has changed.

There are still many pages out on the web using the old jsapi loader, and
these will be affected by this update.  Recall that the library was loaded
like this:

   google.load('visualization', '1' (or '1.0' or '1.1), { packages: [...]
});

If your pages load '1.1', you will be affected by this candidate release.
If your pages load '1' or '1.0', you won't see the changes until we push
this out as the final release, but you should test now by switching to
'1.1'.

If you have problems with this candidate release, you may want to switch to
loading the frozen v42, so your code will look like this:

<script type="text/javascript"
src="https://www.gstatic.com/charts/loader.js";></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
  google.charts.load('42', {packages: ['corechart']});
  google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);
</script>

We recommend switching to the 'current' version using the new loader if you
can, so you will see future updates.

Assuming this candidate push and the final release are successful, then I
will update the frozen version v45 with the same.
