Version 1.5

Version 1.5.10

February 21, 2024

androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.5.10 and androidx.compose.compiler:compiler-hosted:1.5.10 are released. Version 1.5.10 contains these commits.

Bug Fixes

  • Support live literals inside init blocks. (b/320397488)
  • Use dispatcher parameter to check if the function is inside local class (b/323123439)

Version 1.5.9

February 7, 2024

androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.5.9 and androidx.compose.compiler:compiler-hosted:1.5.9 are released. Version 1.5.9 contains these commits.

Bug Fixes

  • Fix composable calls in anonymous object initializer. (b/320261458, 96315c)
  • Count recursive local declarations as captures. (b/318745941, e7b4b0)
  • Fix Intrinsic remember changes behavior related to Java method refs by forceing .changed for function types with intrinsic remember. (b/319810819, 77128e)
  • Added an experimental optimization that will remove the groups around functions that are not skippable such as explicitly marked as @NonSkippableComposable and functions that are implicitly not skippable such inline functions and functions that return a non-Unit value such as remember.
  • This optimization can be enabled by passing plugin option, -P plugin:androidx.compose.compiler.plugins.kotlin:nonSkippingGroupOptimization=true to the Kotlin compiler. (I1688f)

Version 1.5.8

January 10, 2024

androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.5.8 and androidx.compose.compiler:compiler-hosted:1.5.8 are released. Version 1.5.8 contains these commits.

New Features

  • Support for Kotlin 1.9.22

Bug Fixes

  • Fix bug where Compose Compiler build threw exceptions when built using Java21. Users who are using Compose Compiler from Google Maven (i.e., not building it themselves) were never impacted by this bug. (b/316644294)
  • Fix bug where COMPOSABLE_EXPECTED error was being reported for some callers of non-inlined lambdas. (b/309364913)
  • Add a compilation error for default parameters in open functions (previously only it was restricted only for abstract functions). Compose does not support substitution of default parameters from overridden functions at the moment, and overriding a composable function with default parameters was failing at runtime. Use @Suppress("ABSTRACT_COMPOSABLE_DEFAULT_PARAMETER_VALUE") to suppress, but note that overriding such function without providing a default value for parameter will result in a crash at runtime.(b/317490247)
  • Fixed bug in intrinsic remember which prevented values from propagating correctly. (b/316327367)

External Contribution

Version 1.5.7

December 19, 2023

androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.5.7 and androidx.compose.compiler:compiler-hosted:1.5.7 are released. Version 1.5.7 contains these commits.

Bug Fixes

  • Fix compose runtime crash when remember() key parameter invokes a Composable function (b/315855015)
  • Fix Compose runtime crash when return@ is used. (b/315821171)
  • Avoid using absolute paths in memoization keys which allows better build cache utilization. (b/313937484)

Version 1.5.6

December 6, 2023

androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.5.6 and androidx.compose.compiler:compiler-hosted:1.5.6 are released. Version 1.5.6 contains these commits.

New Features

  • Support for Kotlin 1.9.21

Bug Fixes

  • Enable intrinsic remember - the compiler transform that inlines remember in Compose compiler plugin and replaces .equals comparisons with int comparisons of the parameter meta for stable params. This results in less slots being used and less comparisons being done at runtime. The option can be disabled by providing compiler plugin argument: -P plugin:androidx.compose.compiler.plugins.kotlin:intrinsicRemember=false. (If675f)
  • Fix memoization of adapted function references and inline arguments. (b/312738720)
  • Realize groups when exiting inline function call (b/312242547)

External Contribution

  • Fix k/native and k/wasm runtime crash due to missing return statement in Composable functions when it's the last statement and returns a null const (aosp/2835716)

Version 1.5.5

November 29, 2023

androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.5.5 and androidx.compose.compiler:compiler-hosted:1.5.5 are released. Version 1.5.5 contains these commits.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixes a crash during lookup of overridden composable types (Ib6d2c, b/297665426)
    • Add stabilityConfigurationPath to known parameters (previously bug prevented usage of configuration file flag). (b/309765121)
    • Memoization fixes (I081d1, I4d7bf)
    • Recomposition fix by accounting for Uncertain param state in intrinsic remember (b/263402091)
    • Fix debugging line information for intrinsic remember (Ic8cf5)
    • Fix crash (IR lowering failed) during overridden composable types lookup at compile time (b/297665426)

External Contribution

Version 1.5.4

November 7, 2023

androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.5.4 and androidx.compose.compiler:compiler-hosted:1.5.4 are released. Version 1.5.4 contains these commits.

Dependency Updates

  • Compose Compiler is now compatible with Kotlin 1.9.20

New Features

  • Add an experimental option to enable strong skipping mode. Strong skipping mode allows composables with unstable parameters to be skipped. Additionally, lambdas with unstable captures are memoized. This feature is experimental and not considered ready for production use. (22421e)
  • Add flag to enable/disable source/trace information. (4d45f09)
  • Allow configuring the stability of external classes via a configuration file. (If40eb)

Bug Fixes

  • Fix early exit from composable functions when source information is not collected. (fe6267)
  • Fix continue from composable functions. (948362)
  • Fix resolution when composable functions are invoked from within a function invocation that has multiple overloads that are dependent on expression return type. (2d36d0)
  • Fix memoization when function reference does not have dispatch receiver. (fc2326)
  • Fix dirty check which was preventing recomposition of lambdas in some situations. (db3699)
  • Fix stability when incrementally compiling across modules. (7d3e127)
  • Reduce scope of @DontMemoize to lambda expressions only. (7a7fa52)
  • Fix Variables not captured correctly when using a Composable fun interface as a lambda. (5ae3556)

External Contribution

  • Use structural equality symbol for numeric and null comparison (c612a0)

Bug Fixes

  • Insert line numbers for return statements in constant-returning composable functions. (I42d89)
  • Fix a memory leak caused by switching to the new compiler plugin entrypoint. (4f0a101)
  • Stop transforming non-composable fun interfaces in Compose compiler. This causes fun interfaces to be handled the same way as lambdas, including memoization rules. (28b3ce9)
  • Use vararg argument type for inferring stability on call site. (bc83645)

Version 1.5.1

July 26, 2023

Bug Fixes

Version 1.1.0

February 9, 2022

androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.1.0 is released. Version 1.1.0 contains these commits.

Important changes since 1.0.0

  • Stable support for the Android 12 Overscroll effect
  • Improvements to touch target sizing
  • Note that, with respect to Compose 1.0, Material components will expand their layout space to meet Material accessibility guidelines for touch target size. For instance, Button touch target will expand to a minimum size of 48x48dp, even if you set the Button's size to be smaller. This aligns Compose Material to the same behavior of Material Design Components, providing consistent behavior if you mix Views and Compose. This change also ensures that when you create your UI using Compose Material components, minimum requirements for touch target accessibility will be met.
  • Stable support for Navigation Rail
  • Graduates a number of previously experimental APIs to stable
  • Support for newer versions of Kotlin

New Features

  • Stability Inference & Propagation. The Compose Compiler Plugin will analyze types it compiles to infer whether or not it is eligible for certain optimizations by the runtime. This inferred result is then synthesized as metadata onto the class to be utilized by the compiler in other modules. Furthermore, the runtime result of these inferences is passed along in metadata passed to composable calls during composition. This necessitated a different metadata protocol for composable functions, which means that composable functions compiled with the alpha07 compiler will not be binary compatible with composable functions compiled with any earlier compiler version.
