| </p> |
| |
| <div class="toggle-content-toggleme"> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Merged in the latest IntelliJ codebase changes. Includes fixes for issues reported by Studio users such as tweaks to Linux font sizes and font rendering.</li> |
| <li>Android Gradle plug-in updated to 0.5.0. |
| <p class="caution"><strong>Caution:</strong> This new version is not backwards compatible. |
| When opening a project that uses an older version of the plug-in, Studio will show an error |
| stating <strong>Gradle <project_name> project refresh failed.</strong></p> |
| <p>The updated Gradle plug-in includes the following changes:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Fixed IDE model to contain the output file even if it's customized through the DSL. Also |
| fixed the DSL to get/set the output file on the variant object so that it's not necessary to |
| use <code>variant.packageApplication or variant.zipAlign</code></li> |
| <li>Fixed dependency resolution so that we resolved the combination of (default config, |
| build types, flavor(s)) together instead of separately.</li> |
| <li>Fixed dependency for tests of library project to properly include all the dependencies |
| of the library itself.</li> |
| <li>Fixed case where two dependencies have the same leaf name.</li> |
| <li>Fixed issue where Proguard rules file cannot be applied on flavors.</li> |
| </ul> |
| <p>All Gradle plugin release notes are available are here: <a href= |
| "http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system" |
| >http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system</a>.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li>Gradle errors from aapt no longer point to merged output files in the build/ folder, they |
| point back to the real source locations.</li> |
| <li>Parallel Builds. It's now possible to use Gradle's parallel builds. Please be aware that |
| parallel builds are in "incubation" (see <a |
| href="http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/gradle_command_line.html">Gradle's |
| documentation</a>.) This feature is off by default. To enable it, go to |
| <strong>Preferences</strong> > <strong>Compiler</strong> and check the box <em>Compile |
| independent modules in parallel</em>.</li> |
| <li>Further work on the new resource repository used for layout rendering, resource |
| folding in the editor, and more: |
| <ul> |
| <li>Basic support for .aar library dependencies (e.g. using a library without a local copy of |
| the sources). Still not working for resource XML validation and navigation in source editors. |
| </li> |
| <li>Cycle detection in resource references.</li> |
| <li>Quick Documentation (F1), which can show all translations of the string under the caret, |
| will now also show all resource overlays from the various Gradle flavors and build types, as |
| well as libraries. They are listed in reverse resource overlay order, with strikethrough on |
| the versions of the string that are masked.</li> |
| <li>Fixes to handle updating the merged resources when the set of module dependencies |
| change.</li> |
| <li>XML rendering fixes to properly handle character entity declarations and XML and unicode |
| escapes.</li> |
| </ul> |
| <li>Save screenshot support for the layout preview and layout editor windows.</li> |
| <li>Template bug fixes.</li> |
| <li>Lint bug fixes.</li> |
| <li>Various fixes for crash reports. Thank you, and keep filing crash reports!</li> |
