This release candidate of AndroidX is considered feature-complete and its public
API surface is stable. This release will be shipped as final stable version
barring any critical issues that may arise. This release should be safe to use
in production. Please report any issues to the public issue
tracker.
Fixed issues
BottomNavigationView menu is not initialized correctly in design support library
PositionalDataSource doesn't correctly handle pre-pended item inserts into the database
Sliders are janky and not responsive
SlicesProviderCompat.getPinnedSpecs() doesn't add user IDs to URIs
RoutePlayer2: remote playback does not switch back to local playback
Cached slice parsing is crashing on actions
Google Search app crash in rendering static Slice
ConcurrentModificationException in RecyclerView selection library when data
set changed with removing selection
PreferenceThemeOverlay has been updated to the latest material theme. If no
custom theme is provided, PreferenceThemeOverlay is used as the default
theme.
PreferenceThemeOverlay.v14 and PreferenceThemeOverlay.v14.Material themes have
been deprecated in favour of PreferenceThemeOverlay.
PreferenceGroup visibility is now tied to its children - hiding a parent group
will also prevent its children from being shown in the hierarchy. Use
Preference.isShown() to get whether a Preference is actually displayed to the
user in the hierarchy.
Preference.onSetInitialValue(boolean, Object) has been deprecated and replaced
with onSetInitialValue(Object). PreferenceDataStore now also correctly
restores default values.

alpha period.
Known issues
The following libraries are not yet compatible with the AndroidX refactor:
com.google.dagger:dagger-android
com.google.android.support:wearable
io.fabric.tools:gradle: Requires 1.25.4 or later
Upgrade to version 2.16 or later forcom.google.dagger:dagger-android` to be
compatible with the AndroidX refactor.
The Android Studio refactor tool incorrectly refactors some classes from the
android.arch.persistence.room.* and android.support.v4.media.*
namespaces. Workaround: Check and correct your import lines after running the refactor
tool.
After using Android Studio refactor tool, full package name is used for some
classes in code even though the package was imported.
Fixed issues
BottomNavigationView menu is not initialized correctly (AOSP issue
63375220)
RecyclerView getItemDecorationAt has incorrect documentation (AOSP issue
72727717)
