ابزار طراحی

این نسخه از Android Studio شامل به‌روزرسانی‌هایی برای چندین ابزار طراحی، از جمله Layout Editor و Resource Manager است.

تقسیم نمایش و زوم در ویرایشگرهای طراحی

split view هر دو نمای طراحی و متن را به طور همزمان نشان می دهد

به روز رسانی های زیر برای ویرایشگرهای طراحی بصری در این نسخه گنجانده شده است:

  • ویرایشگرهای طراحی مانند Layout Editor و Navigation Editor اکنون یک نمای تقسیم را ارائه می دهند که به شما امکان می دهد هر دو نمای طراحی و کد رابط کاربری خود را به طور همزمان مشاهده کنید. در گوشه سمت راست بالای پنجره ویرایشگر، اکنون سه دکمه وجود دارد مشاهده آیکون ها برای جابجایی بین گزینه های مشاهده:

    • برای فعال کردن نمای تقسیم، روی نماد تقسیم کلیک کنید نماد نمای تقسیم .
    • برای فعال کردن نمای منبع XML، روی نماد منبع کلیک کنید نماد مشاهده منبع .
    • برای فعال کردن نمای طراحی، روی نماد طراحی کلیک کنید نماد نمای طراحی .
  • کنترل‌های بزرگ‌نمایی و حرکت در ویرایشگرهای طراحی به یک پانل شناور در گوشه سمت راست پایین پنجره ویرایشگر منتقل شده‌اند.

برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، به ساخت رابط کاربری با ویرایشگر طرح‌بندی مراجعه کنید.

برگه منبع انتخابگر رنگ

برای کمک به شما در به‌روزرسانی سریع مقادیر منابع رنگی در برنامه خود هنگام استفاده از انتخابگر رنگ در XML یا ابزارهای طراحی، اکنون IDE مقادیر منابع رنگ را برای شما پر می‌کند.

انتخابگر رنگ با مقادیر رنگ پر شده

مدیر منابع

مدیر منابع شامل به روز رسانی های زیر است:

  • مدیر منابع اکنون از اکثر انواع منابع پشتیبانی می کند.
  • هنگام جستجوی یک منبع، مدیر منابع اکنون نتایج همه ماژول های پروژه را نمایش می دهد. قبلاً، جستجوها فقط از ماژول انتخاب شده نتیجه می‌دادند.
  • دکمه فیلتر به شما امکان می دهد منابع را از ماژول های وابسته محلی، کتابخانه های خارجی و چارچوب اندروید مشاهده کنید. همچنین می توانید از فیلتر برای نشان دادن ویژگی های تم استفاده کنید.
  • اکنون می توانید با کلیک کردن در کادر متنی بالای منبع، نام منابع را در طی فرآیند واردات تغییر دهید.

برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، به مدیریت منابع رابط کاربری برنامه خود با مدیریت منابع مراجعه کنید.

به روز رسانی پلاگین Android Gradle

آخرین نسخه پلاگین Android Gradle شامل به روز رسانی های زیادی از جمله بهینه سازی برای سرعت ساخت، پشتیبانی از افزونه انتشار Maven و پشتیبانی از View Binding است. برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، یادداشت‌های انتشار کامل را بخوانید.

مشاهده صحافی

View binding به شما این امکان را می دهد که با ایجاد یک کلاس binding برای هر فایل طرح بندی XML، کدی را راحت تر بنویسید که با نماها تعامل دارد. این کلاس ها حاوی ارجاع مستقیم به تمام نماهایی هستند که دارای شناسه در طرح مربوطه هستند.

از آنجایی که جایگزین findViewById() می شود، view binding خطر استثناهای اشاره گر تهی ناشی از شناسه view نامعتبر را از بین می برد.

برای فعال کردن view binding، باید از افزونه Android Gradle نسخه 3.6.0 یا بالاتر استفاده کنید و موارد زیر را در فایل build.gradle هر ماژول قرار دهید:

شیار

  android {
      buildFeatures.viewBinding = true
  }
  

کاتلین

  android {
      buildFeatures.viewBinding = true
  }
  

اعمال تغییرات

اکنون می توانید یک کلاس اضافه کنید و سپس با کلیک روی Apply Code Changes یا Apply Changes and Restart Activity، آن تغییر کد را در برنامه در حال اجرا خود اجرا کنید.

برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر در مورد تفاوت بین این دو عمل، به اعمال تغییرات مراجعه کنید.

گزینه منوی Refactor برای فعال کردن پشتیبانی از برنامه های فوری

اکنون می توانید ماژول پایه خود را در هر زمانی پس از ایجاد پروژه برنامه خود به صورت زیر فعال کنید:

  1. با انتخاب View > Tool Windows > Project از نوار منو، پنل Project را باز کنید.
  2. روی ماژول پایه خود، که معمولاً «برنامه» نام دارد، راست کلیک کرده و Refactor > Enable Instant Apps Support را انتخاب کنید.
  3. در گفتگوی ظاهر شده، ماژول پایه خود را از منوی کشویی انتخاب کنید.
  4. روی OK کلیک کنید.

توجه: گزینه فعال کردن فوری ماژول برنامه پایه شما از جادوگر ایجاد پروژه جدید حذف شده است.

کد بایت کلاس و متد را در APK Analyzer حذف کنید

هنگام استفاده از APK Analyzer برای بازرسی فایل‌های DEX، می‌توانید بایت کد کلاس و متد را به صورت زیر حذف کنید:

  1. Build > Analyze APK را از نوار منو انتخاب کنید.
  2. در گفتگوی ظاهر شده، به APK مورد نظر برای بازرسی بروید و آن را انتخاب کنید.
  3. روی Open کلیک کنید.
  4. در APK Analyzer، فایل DEX را که می خواهید بررسی کنید، انتخاب کنید.
  5. در نمایشگر فایل DEX، فایل نگاشت ProGuard را برای APK که در حال تجزیه و تحلیل هستید بارگیری کنید .
  6. روی کلاس یا روشی که می خواهید بررسی کنید کلیک راست کرده و Show bytecode را انتخاب کنید.

ابزار بومی

به‌روزرسانی‌های زیر از توسعه بومی (C/C++) در Android Studio پشتیبانی می‌کنند.

پشتیبانی کاتلین

ویژگی‌های NDK زیر در Android Studio که قبلاً در جاوا پشتیبانی می‌شد، اکنون در Kotlin نیز پشتیبانی می‌شوند:

  • از یک اعلان JNI به تابع پیاده سازی مربوطه در C/C++ بروید. این نگاشت را با نگه داشتن نشانگر مورد C یا C++ در نزدیکی شماره خط در فایل کد منبع مدیریت شده مشاهده کنید.

  • به طور خودکار یک تابع اجرای خرد برای یک اعلان JNI ایجاد کنید. ابتدا اعلان JNI را تعریف کنید و سپس “jni” یا نام متد را در فایل C/C++ تایپ کنید تا فعال شود.

  • توابع پیاده سازی بومی استفاده نشده به عنوان یک هشدار در کد منبع برجسته می شوند. اعلان‌های JNI با اجراهای از دست رفته نیز به‌عنوان یک خطا برجسته می‌شوند.

  • هنگامی که یک تابع پیاده سازی بومی را تغییر نام می دهید، تمام اعلان های JNI مربوطه به روز می شوند. تغییر نام یک اعلان JNI برای به روز رسانی تابع پیاده سازی بومی.

  • بررسی امضا برای پیاده سازی های JNI به صورت ضمنی.

سایر بهبودهای JNI

ویرایشگر کد در اندروید استودیو اکنون از یک گردش کار توسعه یکپارچه‌تر JNI، از جمله راهنمایی‌های نوع بهبودیافته، تکمیل خودکار، بازرسی‌ها و بازسازی کد پشتیبانی می‌کند.

بارگیری مجدد APK برای کتابخانه های بومی {:#3.6-reload-apk}

هنگامی که APK در پروژه شما خارج از IDE به روز می شود، دیگر نیازی به ایجاد یک پروژه جدید ندارید. Android Studio تغییرات را در APK تشخیص می دهد و به شما امکان می دهد آن را دوباره وارد کنید.

منابع APK فقط کاتلین را ضمیمه کنید

اکنون می‌توانید هنگام نمایه‌سازی و اشکال‌زدایی فایل‌های APK از پیش ساخته شده، منابع APK خارجی فقط برای Kotlin را پیوست کنید. برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، به پیوست منابع Kotlin/Java مراجعه کنید.

تشخیص نشت در Memory Profiler

هنگام تجزیه و تحلیل heap dump در Memory Profiler، اکنون می‌توانید داده‌های نمایه‌ای را فیلتر کنید که Android Studio فکر می‌کند ممکن است نشان دهنده نشت حافظه برای نمونه‌های Activity و Fragment در برنامه شما باشد.

انواع داده هایی که فیلتر نشان می دهد شامل موارد زیر است:

  • نمونه‌های Activity که از بین رفته‌اند اما هنوز به آنها ارجاع داده می‌شود.
  • نمونه های Fragment که FragmentManager معتبری ندارند اما همچنان به آنها ارجاع داده می شود.

تشخیص نشت در Memory Profiler

هنگام تجزیه و تحلیل heap dump در Memory Profiler، اکنون می‌توانید داده‌های نمایه‌ای را فیلتر کنید که Android Studio فکر می‌کند ممکن است نشان دهنده نشت حافظه برای نمونه‌های Activity و Fragment در برنامه شما باشد.

انواع داده هایی که فیلتر نشان می دهد شامل موارد زیر است:

  • نمونه‌های Activity که از بین رفته‌اند اما هنوز به آنها ارجاع داده می‌شود.
  • نمونه های Fragment که FragmentManager معتبری ندارند اما همچنان به آنها ارجاع داده می شود.

در شرایط خاص، مانند موارد زیر، فیلتر ممکن است مثبت کاذب باشد:

  • یک Fragment ایجاد شده است اما هنوز استفاده نشده است.
  • یک Fragment در حافظه پنهان ذخیره می شود، اما نه به عنوان بخشی از یک FragmentTransaction .

برای استفاده از این ویژگی، ابتدا یک فایل heap dump بگیرید یا یک فایل heap dump را به Android Studio وارد کنید . برای نمایش بخش‌ها و فعالیت‌هایی که ممکن است حافظه را نشت کند، کادر بررسی Activity/Fragment Leaks را در قسمت heap dump panel Memory Profiler انتخاب کنید.

Win32 منسوخ شد

نسخه ویندوز 32 بیتی اندروید استودیو پس از دسامبر 2019 دیگر به روز رسانی دریافت نمی کند و پس از دسامبر 2020 دیگر پشتیبانی نخواهد شد. می توانید به استفاده از Android Studio ادامه دهید. با این حال، برای دریافت به‌روزرسانی‌های اضافی، ایستگاه کاری خود را به نسخه 64 بیتی ویندوز ارتقا دهید.

برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، وبلاگ استهلاک 32 بیتی ویندوز را مطالعه کنید

گزینه جدید برای بهینه سازی زمان همگام سازی Gradle

در نسخه های قبلی، اندروید استودیو لیستی از تمام وظایف Gradle را در حین همگام سازی Gradle بازیابی کرد. برای پروژه های بزرگ، بازیابی لیست وظایف می تواند باعث کندی زمان همگام سازی شود.

برای بهبود عملکرد Gradle Sync، به File > Settings > Experimental بروید و در حین همگام سازی Gradle لیست وظایف Gradle را ایجاد نکنید را انتخاب کنید.

هنگامی که این گزینه را فعال می‌کنید، Android Studio از ساخت لیست وظایف در حین همگام‌سازی صرفنظر می‌کند، که به Gradle Sync اجازه می‌دهد سریع‌تر کامل شود و پاسخگویی UI را بهبود می‌بخشد. به خاطر داشته باشید که وقتی IDE از ساخت لیست وظایف صرفنظر می کند، لیست وظایف در پانل Gradle خالی است و تکمیل خودکار نام کار در فایل های ساخت کار نمی کند.

مکان جدید برای تغییر حالت آفلاین Gradle

برای فعال یا غیرفعال کردن حالت آفلاین Gradle، ابتدا View > Tool Windows > Gradle را از نوار منو انتخاب کنید. سپس، در نزدیکی بالای پنجره Gradle ، روی Toggle Offline Mode کلیک کنید دکمه آفلاین Gradle در پانل Gradle. .

IntelliJ IDEA 2019.2

هسته Android Studio IDE با بهبودهایی از IntelliJ IDEA تا نسخه 2019.2 به روز شده است.

    پروژه مرمر: سلامت سیستم

    در این بخش تغییرات Android Studio 3.5 که بر روی بهبود سلامت سیستم متمرکز شده است، توضیح می دهد.

    تنظیمات حافظه توصیه شده

    Android Studio اکنون به شما اطلاع می‌دهد که اگر تشخیص دهد می‌توانید با افزایش حداکثر مقدار RAM که سیستم‌عامل شما باید برای پردازش‌های Android Studio تخصیص دهد، مانند هسته IDE، Daemon Gradle و Daemon Kotlin، عملکرد را بهبود بخشد، به شما اطلاع می‌دهد. می‌توانید با کلیک کردن روی پیوند عمل در اعلان، تنظیمات توصیه‌شده را بپذیرید، یا می‌توانید با انتخاب File > Settings (یا Android Studio > Preferences در macOS)، و سپس یافتن بخش تنظیمات حافظه در قسمت ظاهر و رفتار > این تنظیمات را به صورت دستی تنظیم کنید. تنظیمات سیستم برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، به حداکثر اندازه پشته مراجعه کنید.

    یک اعلان در مورد تنظیمات حافظه توصیه شده.

    یک اعلان در مورد تنظیمات حافظه توصیه شده.

    گزارش استفاده از حافظه

    گاهی اوقات بازتولید و گزارش مشکلات حافظه در Android Studio دشوار است. برای کمک به حل این مشکل، Android Studio به شما امکان می‌دهد با کلیک کردن روی Help > Analyze Memory Usage از نوار منو، گزارش استفاده از حافظه را ایجاد کنید. وقتی این کار را انجام می‌دهید، IDE قبل از اینکه بپرسد می‌خواهید آن‌ها را به تیم Android Studio ارسال کنید تا به شناسایی منبع مشکلات حافظه کمک کند، داده‌ها را به صورت محلی پاکسازی می‌کند. برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، به اجرای گزارش استفاده از حافظه مراجعه کنید.

    گزارش استفاده از حافظه

    گزارش استفاده از حافظه

    ویندوز: بهینه سازی ورودی/خروجی فایل آنتی ویروس

    Android Studio اکنون به طور خودکار بررسی می کند که آیا فهرست های پروژه خاصی از اسکن آنتی ویروس بلادرنگ حذف شده اند یا خیر. هنگامی که می‌توان تنظیماتی را برای بهبود عملکرد ساخت انجام داد، Android Studio به شما اطلاع می‌دهد و دستورالعمل‌هایی را درباره نحوه بهینه‌سازی پیکربندی آنتی‌ویروس ارائه می‌دهد. برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، به به حداقل رساندن تأثیر نرم افزار آنتی ویروس بر سرعت ساخت مراجعه کنید.

    پروژه مرمر: پولیش ویژگی

    این بخش تغییرات اندروید استودیو 3.5 را که بر روی بهبود ویژگی های موجود متمرکز است، توضیح می دهد.

    اعمال تغییرات

    Apply Changes به شما امکان می‌دهد تغییرات کد و منابع را بدون راه‌اندازی مجدد برنامه و در برخی موارد بدون راه‌اندازی مجدد فعالیت فعلی، به برنامه در حال اجرا خود فشار دهید. Apply Changes یک رویکرد کاملاً جدید را برای حفظ وضعیت برنامه شما پیاده سازی می کند. برخلاف Instant Run که بایت کد APK شما را بازنویسی می‌کند، Apply Changes با استفاده از ابزار دقیق زمان اجرا که در Android 8.0 (سطح API 26) یا بالاتر پشتیبانی می‌شود، کلاس‌ها را در لحظه بازتعریف می‌کند.

    برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، به اعمال تغییرات مراجعه کنید.

    دکمه های نوار ابزار برای اعمال تغییرات.

    دکمه های نوار ابزار برای اعمال تغییرات.

    جریان استقرار برنامه

    IDE یک منوی کشویی جدید دارد که به شما امکان می دهد به سرعت انتخاب کنید که می خواهید برنامه خود را در کدام دستگاه مستقر کنید. این منو همچنین شامل یک گزینه جدید است که به شما امکان می دهد برنامه خود را همزمان روی چندین دستگاه اجرا کنید.

    منوی کشویی دستگاه مورد نظر.

    منوی کشویی دستگاه مورد نظر.

    همگام سازی Gradle و تشخیص کش بهبود یافته است

    اکنون IDE بهتر تشخیص می دهد که Gradle به طور دوره ای کش ساخت شما را هنگام کاهش مصرف هارد دیسک پاک می کند. در نسخه های قبلی، این حالت باعث می شد که IDE وابستگی های از دست رفته را گزارش کند و همگام سازی Gradle با شکست مواجه شود. اکنون، IDE به سادگی وابستگی ها را در صورت نیاز دانلود می کند تا اطمینان حاصل شود که همگام سازی Gradle با موفقیت کامل می شود.

    خروجی خطای ساخت بهبود یافته است

    ساخت ساخت نماد پنجره اکنون پنجره گزارش خطای بهتری مانند پیوند به فایل و خط خطای گزارش شده را برای فرآیندهای ساخت زیر ارائه می دهد:

    • گردآوری و پیوند AAPT
    • R8 و ProGuard
    • دکسینگ
    • ادغام منابع
    • تجزیه فایل XML
    • کامپایل Javac، Kotlinc و CMake

    ارتقای پروژه

    تجربه به‌روزرسانی بهبود یافته برای ارائه اطلاعات و اقدامات بیشتر برای کمک به شما در به‌روزرسانی IDE و افزونه Android Gradle. برای مثال، خطاهای همگام‌سازی و ساخت بیشتر شامل اقداماتی است که به شما در کاهش خطاها هنگام به‌روزرسانی کمک می‌کند.

    مهم است که به خاطر داشته باشید، شما می توانید IDE را مستقل از سایر مؤلفه ها، مانند افزونه Android Gradle، به روز کنید. بنابراین، می‌توانید با خیال راحت IDE را به‌محض عرضه نسخه جدیدتر به‌روزرسانی کنید و بعداً سایر مؤلفه‌ها را به‌روزرسانی کنید.

    ویرایشگر چیدمان

    Android Studio 3.5 شامل چندین پیشرفت برای تجسم، مدیریت و تعامل است.

    هنگام کار با ConstraintLayout ، یک بخش Constraints جدید در پانل Attributes ، روابط محدودیت‌های مؤلفه UI انتخاب شده را فهرست می‌کند. شما می توانید یک محدودیت را از سطح طراحی یا از لیست محدودیت ها برای برجسته کردن محدودیت در هر دو ناحیه انتخاب کنید.

    روابط محدودیت برای یک عنصر UI انتخاب شده.

    روابط محدودیت برای یک عنصر UI انتخاب شده.

    به همین ترتیب، اکنون می توانید یک محدودیت را با انتخاب آن و فشار دادن کلید Delete حذف کنید. همچنین می توانید با نگه داشتن کلید Control ( Command در macOS) و کلیک بر روی لنگر محدودیت، یک محدودیت را حذف کنید. توجه داشته باشید که وقتی کلید Control یا Command را نگه می‌دارید و ماوس را روی یک لنگر نگه می‌دارید، هر گونه محدودیت مرتبط قرمز می‌شود تا نشان دهد که می‌توانید برای حذف آنها کلیک کنید.

    هنگامی که یک View انتخاب می شود، می توانید با کلیک بر روی هر یک از نمادهای + در قسمت Constraint Widget پانل Attributes ، یک محدودیت ایجاد کنید، همانطور که در تصویر زیر نشان داده شده است. هنگامی که یک محدودیت جدید ایجاد می کنید، ویرایشگر طرح بندی اکنون محدودیت را انتخاب و برجسته می کند، و بازخورد بصری فوری برای آنچه که اضافه کرده اید ارائه می دهد.

    انیمیشنی که نحوه استفاده از ویجت محدودیت برای ایجاد را نشان می دهد             محدودیت ها

    استفاده از ویجت محدودیت برای ایجاد محدودیت.

    هنگام ایجاد یک محدودیت، ویرایشگر Layout اکنون فقط نقاط لنگر واجد شرایطی را نشان می دهد که می توانید آنها را محدود کنید. قبلاً، Layout Editor تمام نقاط لنگر را در همه نماها برجسته می کرد، صرف نظر از اینکه آیا می توانید آنها را محدود کنید یا خیر. علاوه بر این، یک پوشش آبی اکنون هدف محدودیت را برجسته می کند. این برجسته سازی به ویژه در هنگام تلاش برای محدود کردن مؤلفه ای که با مؤلفه دیگری همپوشانی دارد مفید است.

    انیمیشنی که نحوه ایجاد محدودیت برای همپوشانی را نشان می دهد             جزء در اندروید استودیو 3.4.

    ایجاد یک محدودیت برای یک مؤلفه همپوشانی در Android Studio 3.5.

    علاوه بر به‌روزرسانی‌های بالا، اندروید استودیو 3.5 شامل بهبودهای ویرایشگر طرح‌بندی زیر نیز می‌شود:

    • ابزارک محدودیت و کشویی حاشیه پیش‌فرض اکنون به شما امکان می‌دهد از منابع ابعاد برای حاشیه‌ها استفاده کنید.
    • در نوار ابزار Layout Editor، لیست دستگاه هایی که اندازه سطح طراحی را تعیین می کنند، به روز شده است. علاوه بر این، رفتار چفت شدن هنگام تغییر اندازه بهبود یافته است و دستگیره های تغییر اندازه روی سطح طراحی اکنون همیشه قابل مشاهده هستند. هنگام تغییر اندازه، پوشش‌های جدیدی ظاهر می‌شوند که اندازه‌های رایج دستگاه را نشان می‌دهند.
    • Layout Editor دارای یک طرح رنگ جدید است که سازگاری را بهبود می بخشد و کنتراست بین اجزا، متن و محدودیت ها را کاهش می دهد.
    • حالت Blueprint اکنون شامل پشتیبانی متنی برای برخی از مؤلفه‌هایی است که متن نشان داده نمی‌شود.

    برای اطلاعات بیشتر درباره این تغییرات، به Android Studio Project Marble: Layout Editor مراجعه کنید.

    اتصال داده ها

    علاوه بر افزودن پشتیبانی از پردازش حاشیه نویسی افزایشی برای Data Binding، IDE ویژگی ها و عملکرد ویرایشگر هوشمند را هنگام ایجاد عبارات اتصال داده در XML بهبود می بخشد.

    پشتیبانی بهبود یافته برای پروژه های C/C++

    Android Studio 3.5 شامل چندین تغییر است که پشتیبانی از پروژه های C/C++ را بهبود می بخشد.

    تغییرات پانل ساخت برای همگام سازی تک نسخه

    اکنون می توانید هر دو نوع ساخت فعال و ABI فعال را در پنل Build Variants مشخص کنید. این ویژگی پیکربندی ساخت در هر ماژول را ساده می کند و همچنین می تواند عملکرد همگام سازی Gradle را بهبود بخشد.

    برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، به تغییر نوع ساخت مراجعه کنید.

    پانل Build Variants که انتخاب تک نوع را توسط ABI نشان می دهد.

    پانل Build Variants با انتخاب تک نوع توسط ABI.

    نسخه های جانبی NDK

    اکنون می توانید از چندین نسخه NDK در کنار هم استفاده کنید. این ویژگی هنگام پیکربندی پروژه‌هایتان انعطاف‌پذیری بیشتری به شما می‌دهد - برای مثال، اگر پروژه‌هایی دارید که از نسخه‌های مختلف NDK در یک دستگاه استفاده می‌کنند.

    اگر پروژه شما از پلاگین Android Gradle نسخه 3.5.0 یا بالاتر استفاده می کند، می توانید نسخه NDK را که هر ماژول در پروژه شما باید از آن استفاده کند را نیز مشخص کنید. می‌توانید از این ویژگی برای ایجاد ساخت‌های قابل تکرار و کاهش ناسازگاری‌های بین نسخه‌های NDK و افزونه Android Gradle استفاده کنید.

    برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، به نصب و پیکربندی NDK، CMake و LLDB مراجعه کنید.

    پشتیبانی ChromeOS

    Android Studio اکنون به طور رسمی از دستگاه‌های ChromeOS پشتیبانی می‌کند، مانند HP Chromebook x360 14، Acer Chromebook 13/Spin 13، و موارد دیگر که می‌توانید در مورد نیازهای سیستم بخوانید. برای شروع، Android Studio را در دستگاه ChromeOS سازگار خود دانلود کنید و دستورالعمل‌های نصب را دنبال کنید.

    توجه: Android Studio در ChromeOS در حال حاضر از استقرار برنامه شما فقط در یک دستگاه سخت افزاری متصل پشتیبانی می کند. برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، اجرای برنامه‌ها در دستگاه سخت‌افزاری را بخوانید.

    تحویل مشروط برای ماژول های ویژگی

    تحویل مشروط به شما امکان می‌دهد الزامات پیکربندی دستگاه خاصی را برای ماژول‌های ویژگی تنظیم کنید تا در حین نصب برنامه به‌طور خودکار دانلود شوند. برای مثال، می‌توانید یک ماژول ویژگی را پیکربندی کنید که شامل قابلیت‌هایی برای واقعیت افزوده (AR) باشد تا در نصب برنامه فقط برای دستگاه‌هایی که AR را پشتیبانی می‌کنند در دسترس باشد.

    این مکانیسم تحویل در حال حاضر از کنترل دانلود یک ماژول در زمان نصب برنامه بر اساس پیکربندی‌های دستگاه زیر پشتیبانی می‌کند:

    • ویژگی های سخت افزاری و نرم افزاری دستگاه، از جمله نسخه OpenGL ES
    • کشور کاربر
    • سطح API

    اگر دستگاهی همه الزاماتی را که مشخص کرده‌اید برآورده نمی‌کند، ماژول در زمان نصب برنامه دانلود نمی‌شود. با این حال، ممکن است برنامه شما بعداً درخواست کند که ماژول را در صورت درخواست با استفاده از کتابخانه هسته Play دانلود کند . برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر، پیکربندی تحویل مشروط را بخوانید.

    گفتگوی ساختار پروژه جدید

    گفتگوی ساختار پروژه جدید (PSD) به‌روزرسانی وابستگی‌ها و پیکربندی جنبه‌های مختلف پروژه مانند ماژول‌ها، انواع ساخت، پیکربندی‌های امضا و متغیرهای ساخت را آسان‌تر می‌کند.

    با انتخاب File > Project Structure از نوار منو می توانید PSD را باز کنید. همچنین می‌توانید PSD را با فشار دادن Ctrl+Shift+Alt+S در ویندوز و لینوکس یا Command+; (نقطه ویرگول) در macOS. در زیر می توانید توضیحات برخی از بخش های جدید و به روز شده PSD را بیابید.

    متغیرها

    بخش متغیرهای جدید PSD به شما این امکان را می‌دهد که متغیرهای ساخت را ایجاد و مدیریت کنید، مانند متغیرهایی برای ثابت نگه داشتن شماره نسخه برای وابستگی‌ها در سراسر پروژه.

    • به سرعت متغیرهای ساختی را که از قبل در اسکریپت های ساخت Gradle پروژه شما وجود دارد، مشاهده و ویرایش کنید.
    • متغیرهای ساخت جدید را در سطح پروژه یا ماژول مستقیماً از PSD اضافه کنید.

    توجه: اگر فایل های پیکربندی ساخت موجود شما مقادیری را از طریق اسکریپت های پیچیده Groovy اختصاص می دهند، ممکن است نتوانید آن مقادیر را از طریق PSD ویرایش کنید. علاوه بر این، نمی توانید فایل های بیلد نوشته شده در Kotlin را با استفاده از PSD ویرایش کنید.

    ماژول ها

    ویژگی هایی را پیکربندی کنید که برای همه انواع ساخت در یک ماژول موجود اعمال می شود یا ماژول های جدید را از قسمت Modules به پروژه خود اضافه کنید. به عنوان مثال، اینجا جایی است که می توانید ویژگی های defaultConfig را پیکربندی کنید یا پیکربندی های امضا را مدیریت کنید.

    وابستگی ها

    با دنبال کردن مراحل زیر، هر وابستگی را در نمودار وابستگی پروژه خود، همانطور که توسط Gradle در حین همگام سازی پروژه حل شده است، بررسی و تجسم کنید:

    1. در قسمت سمت چپ PSD، Dependencies را انتخاب کنید.
    2. در بخش ماژول ها ، ماژولی را انتخاب کنید که می خواهید وابستگی های حل شده را برای آن بررسی کنید.
    3. در سمت راست PSD، پنجره Resolved Dependencies را باز کنید که در زیر نشان داده شده است.

    همچنین می توانید با انتخاب یک ماژول از قسمت Dependencies در PSD، کلیک بر روی دکمه (+) در قسمت Declared Dependencies و انتخاب نوع وابستگی مورد نظر برای اضافه کردن، به سرعت جستجو و وابستگی ها را به پروژه خود اضافه کنید.

    بسته به نوع وابستگی که انتخاب می‌کنید، باید دیالوگی شبیه به شکل زیر ببینید که به شما کمک می‌کند وابستگی را به ماژول اضافه کنید.

    ساخت انواع

    در این بخش از PSD، انواع ساخت و طعم محصول را برای هر ماژول در پروژه خود ایجاد و پیکربندی کنید. می‌توانید مکان‌نماهای مانیفست را اضافه کنید، فایل‌های ProGuard را اضافه کنید و کلیدهای امضا را اختصاص دهید و موارد دیگر.

    پیشنهادات

    همانطور که در زیر نشان داده شده است، به روز رسانی های پیشنهادی برای وابستگی های پروژه و متغیرهای ساخت را در بخش پیشنهادات مشاهده کنید.

    مدیر منابع جدید

    Resource Manager یک پنجره ابزار جدید برای واردات ، ایجاد ، مدیریت و استفاده از منابع در برنامه شما است. می توانید با انتخاب View> Windows Tool> Manager Manager از نوار منو ، پنجره ابزار را باز کنید. مدیر منابع به شما امکان می دهد موارد زیر را انجام دهید:

    • تجسم منابع: برای یافتن سریع منابع مورد نیاز شما می توانید پیش نمایش ، رنگ ها و چیدمان ها را پیش نمایش کنید.
    • واردات فله: شما می توانید چندین دارایی قابل ترسیم را به طور همزمان با کشیدن و رها کردن آنها به پنجره Tool Manager Manager یا با استفاده از Wizard Import Drawables وارد کنید. برای دسترسی به جادوگر ، دکمه (+) را در گوشه بالا سمت چپ پنجره ابزار انتخاب کنید و سپس از منوی کشویی Import Drawables را انتخاب کنید.
    • SVG ها را به اشیاء VectorDrawable تبدیل کنید: می توانید از Wizard Import Drawables برای تبدیل تصاویر SVG خود به اشیاء VectorDrawable استفاده کنید.
    • Drag and Drop Assets: از پنجره Tool Manager Manager ، می توانید قرعه کشی را بر روی هر دو طراحی و نمای XML از ویرایشگر طرح بکشید و رها کنید.
    • مشاهده نسخه های جایگزین: اکنون می توانید نسخه های جایگزین منابع خود را با دوبار کلیک کردن یک منبع در پنجره ابزار مشاهده کنید. این نمای نسخه های مختلفی را که ایجاد کرده اید و مقدماتی که در آن گنجانده شده است نشان می دهد.
    • کاشی و لیست نمایش ها: می توانید نمای را در پنجره ابزار تغییر دهید تا منابع خود را در ترتیب های مختلف تجسم کنید.

    برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر ، راهنمای نحوه مدیریت منابع برنامه را بخوانید.

    بررسی شناسه های ساخت در هنگام پروفایل و اشکال زدایی APK ها

    هنگامی که پرونده های نماد اشکال زدایی را برای کتابخانه های مشترک در داخل APK .so ارائه می دهید ، Android Studio تأیید می کند که شناسه ساخت پرونده های نماد ارائه شده با شناسه ساخت کتابخانه های .so در داخل APK مطابقت دارد.

    اگر کتابخانه های بومی را در APK خود با شناسه ساخت خود بسازید ، Android Studio بررسی می کند که آیا شناسه ساخت در پرونده های نماد شما با شناسه ساخت در کتابخانه های مادری شما مطابقت دارد و در صورت عدم تطابق پرونده های نماد را رد می کند. اگر با شناسه ساختمانی ساخته نشده اید ، تهیه پرونده های نماد نادرست ممکن است در اشکال زدایی مشکل ایجاد کند.

    R8 به طور پیش فرض فعال شد

    R8 ادغام ، کوچک شدن ، مبهم کردن ، بهینه سازی و تركیب همه در یک مرحله - در پیشرفت های قابل توجه در ساخت ساخت . R8 در Android Gradle Plugin 3.3.0 معرفی شد و اکنون با استفاده از افزونه 3.4.0 و بالاتر ، به طور پیش فرض برای پروژه های APP و Android Library فعال شده است.

    تصویر زیر قبل از معرفی R8 ، یک نمای کلی از روند کامپایل را ارائه می دهد.

    قبل از R8 ، Proguard یک گام کامپایل متفاوت از چرمی و             دفع کردن

    اکنون ، با R8 ، دفع ، کوچک شدن ، انسداد ، بهینه سازی و چرمی (D8) همه در یک مرحله تکمیل شده اند ، همانطور که در زیر نشان داده شده است.

    با R8 ، Desugaring ، Trrinking ، Deprausting ، Optimizing و Dexing             همه در یک مرحله کامپایل انجام می شوند.

    به خاطر داشته باشید ، R8 به گونه ای طراحی شده است که با قوانین موجود Proguard خود کار کند ، بنابراین به احتمال زیاد نیازی به اقدامی برای بهره مندی از R8 ندارید. با این حال ، از آنجا که این یک فناوری متفاوت برای Proguard است که به طور خاص برای پروژه های اندرویدی طراحی شده است ، کوچک شدن و بهینه سازی ممکن است منجر به حذف کدی شود که Proguard ممکن است نداشته باشد. بنابراین ، در این شرایط بعید ، ممکن است لازم باشد قوانین اضافی را برای نگه داشتن آن کد در خروجی ساخت خود اضافه کنید.

    اگر با استفاده از R8 مشکلی را تجربه کرده اید ، سؤالات متداول سازگاری R8 را بخوانید تا بررسی کنید که آیا راه حلی برای مسئله شما وجود دارد یا خیر. اگر یک راه حل ثبت نشده است ، لطفاً یک اشکال را گزارش دهید . شما می توانید R8 را با اضافه کردن یکی از خطوط زیر به پرونده gradle.properties پروژه خود غیرفعال کنید:

        # Disables R8 for Android Library modules only.
        android.enableR8.libraries = false
        # Disables R8 for all modules.
        android.enableR8 = false
        
      

    توجه: برای یک نوع ساخت خاص ، اگر useProguard را در پرونده build.gradle .gradle ماژول برنامه خود false تنظیم کنید ، افزونه Android Gradle از R8 استفاده می کند تا کد برنامه شما را برای آن نوع ساخت کوچک کند ، صرف نظر از اینکه R8 را در gradle.properties فایل gradle.properties

    همه انواع آرگومان پشتیبانی شده توسط مؤلفه ناوبری اکنون در ویرایشگر ناوبری پشتیبانی می شوند. برای اطلاعات بیشتر در مورد انواع پشتیبانی شده ، به داده های عبور بین مقصد مراجعه کنید.

    بهبود ویرایشگر طرح {:#طرح بندی-ویرایشگر}

    صفحه ویژگی های موجود در ویرایشگر چیدمان با بخش هایی که می توانید گسترش دهید تا ویژگی هایی را که می توانید پیکربندی کنید ، به یک صفحه واحد تبدیل شده است. صفحه ویژگی ها همچنین شامل به روزرسانی های زیر است:

    • یک بخش جدید ویژگی های اعلام شده ویژگی های فایل طرح را مشخص می کند و به شما امکان می دهد موارد جدید را به سرعت اضافه کنید.
    • صفحات ویژگی در حال حاضر همچنین دارای شاخص هایی در کنار هر ویژگی است که وقتی مقدار ویژگی یک مرجع منبع است و در غیر این صورت خالی است.
    • اکنون ویژگی هایی با خطاها یا هشدارها برجسته شده است. نکات برجسته قرمز خطاها را نشان می دهد (به عنوان مثال ، وقتی از مقادیر طرح بندی نامعتبر استفاده می کنید) و نکات برجسته نارنجی نشان دهنده هشدارها (به عنوان مثال ، هنگام استفاده از مقادیر کدگذاری شده سخت) است.

    اقدام قصد جدید برای واردات سریع وابستگی ها

    اگر شروع به استفاده از کلاسهای خاص JetPack و Firebase در کد خود می کنید ، یک اقدام قصد جدید پیشنهاد می کند که وابستگی کتابخانه Gradle مورد نیاز را به پروژه خود اضافه کنید ، اگر قبلاً این کار را نکرده اید. به عنوان مثال ، اگر به کلاس WorkManager مراجعه کنید بدون اینکه ابتدا android.arch.work:work-runtime -Runtime وابستگی را وارد کنید ، یک عمل قصد به شما امکان می دهد همانطور که در زیر آمده است ، این کار را به راحتی در یک کلیک انجام دهید.

    به طور خاص ، از آنجا که JetPack کتابخانه پشتیبانی را به بسته های گسسته ای که مدیریت و به روزرسانی آنها آسان تر است ، دوباره بسته بندی کرد ، این عمل قصد به شما کمک می کند تا به سرعت فقط وابستگی های مورد نیاز خود را برای اجزای JetPack که می خواهید استفاده کنید ، اضافه کنید.

    دایرکتوری های استودیوی اندرویدی استفاده نشده را حذف کنید

    هنگامی که برای اولین بار نسخه اصلی Android Studio را اجرا می کنید ، به دنبال دایرکتوری هایی است که حاوی انبارها ، تنظیمات ، شاخص ها و سیاهههای مربوط به نسخه های Android Studio است که برای آنها نصب مربوطه یافت نمی شود. گفتگوی Delete Delete Android Studio Direciation Dialog سپس مکان ها ، اندازه ها و آخرین زمان های اصلاح شده این دایرکتوری های بلااستفاده را نشان می دهد و گزینه ای برای حذف آنها فراهم می کند.

    استودیوی Android Diredio برای حذف در نظر گرفته شده است:

    • لینوکس: ~/.AndroidStudio[Preview] XY
    • MAC: ~/Library/{Preferences, Caches, Logs, Application Support}/AndroidStudio[Preview] XY
    • ویندوز: %USER%.AndroidStudio[Preview] XY

    پیشرفت های شستشو

    LINT ، هنگامی که از Gradle فراخوانده می شود ، به طور قابل توجهی سریعتر است - پروژه های خوب می توانند انتظار داشته باشند که خط تا چهار برابر سریعتر اجرا شود.

    Wizard Project جدید ایجاد کنید

    Wizard Project New Project ظاهری جدید دارد و حاوی به روزرسانی هایی است که به ساده سازی ایجاد پروژه های جدید استودیوی اندرویدی کمک می کند.

    برای اطلاعات بیشتر ، به ایجاد یک پروژه مراجعه کنید.

    به روزرسانی های پروفایل

    Android Studio 3.3 شامل به روزرسانی در چندین پروفایل فردی است.

    عملکرد بهبود یافته است

    بر اساس بازخورد کاربر ، عملکرد عملکرد هنگام استفاده از پروفایل ها بسیار بهبود یافته است. لطفاً به ارائه بازخورد ادامه دهید ، به خصوص اگر همچنان به دیدن مشکلات عملکرد خود ادامه دهید.

    گزینه های ردیابی تخصیص حافظه Profiler

    برای بهبود عملکرد برنامه در حین پروفایل ، پروفایل حافظه اکنون به طور دوره ای از تخصیص حافظه استفاده می کند. در صورت تمایل ، می توانید با استفاده از کشویی ردیابی تخصیص هنگام تست در دستگاه هایی که Android 8.0 (API سطح 26) یا بالاتر دارند ، این رفتار را تغییر دهید.

    با استفاده از کشویی ردیابی Allocation ، می توانید از بین حالت های زیر انتخاب کنید:

    • کامل: تمام تخصیص حافظه شی را ضبط می کند. توجه داشته باشید که اگر برنامه ای دارید که اشیاء زیادی را اختصاص می دهد ، ممکن است هنگام پروفایل ، مشکلات عملکرد قابل توجهی را مشاهده کنید.

    • نمونه برداری: یک نمونه دوره ای از تخصیص حافظه شی را ضبط می کند. این رفتار پیش فرض است و ضمن پروفایل تأثیر کمتری در عملکرد برنامه دارد. شما ممکن است با برنامه هایی که در یک دوره زمانی کوتاه تعداد زیادی اشیاء را اختصاص می دهند با برخی از مشکلات عملکرد روبرو شوید.

    • خاموش: تخصیص حافظه را خاموش می کند. اگر قبلاً انتخاب نشده اید ، این حالت هنگام ضبط CPU به طور خودکار فعال می شود و پس از اتمام ضبط به تنظیمات قبلی باز می گردد. می توانید این رفتار را در گفتگوی تنظیمات ضبط CPU تغییر دهید.

      ردیابی هم روی اشیاء جاوا و هم در منابع JNI تأثیر می گذارد.

    داده های ارائه دهنده قاب را بازرسی کنید

    در پروفایل CPU ، اکنون می توانید بازرسی کنید که برنامه جاوا شما چقدر طول می کشد تا هر فریم را روی موضوع اصلی UI قرار دهید و رندر بخوانید. این داده ها ممکن است هنگام بررسی تنگنا هایی که باعث ایجاد UI و فریمرهای کم می شوند ، مفید باشد. به عنوان مثال ، هر قاب که بیش از 16ms مورد نیاز برای حفظ یک فریمر صاف طول می کشد به رنگ قرمز نمایش داده می شود.

    برای دیدن داده های رندر فریم ، با استفاده از پیکربندی ، ردیابی را ضبط کنید که به شما امکان می دهد تماس های سیستم را ردیابی کنید . پس از ضبط ردیابی ، به دنبال اطلاعات مربوط به هر فریم در طول جدول زمانی برای ضبط در زیر بخش به نام فریم ، همانطور که در شکل زیر نشان داده شده است.

    برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر در مورد تحقیق و رفع مشکلات فریم ، رندر آهسته را بخوانید.

    قطعات در جدول زمانی رویداد

    جدول زمانی رویداد اکنون نشان می دهد که قطعات وصل شده و جدا شده اند. علاوه بر این ، هنگامی که شما روی یک قطعه حرکت می کنید ، یک ابزار ابزار وضعیت قطعه را به شما نشان می دهد.

    مشاهده متن فرمت شده برای بارهای اتصال در پروفایل شبکه

    پیش از این ، پروفایل شبکه فقط متن خام را از بارهای اتصال نمایش می داد. Android Studio 3.3 اکنون انواع خاصی از متن ها را به طور پیش فرض از جمله JSON ، XML و HTML قالب بندی می کند. در برگه های پاسخ و درخواست ، برای نمایش متن فرمت شده ، روی Link View Parsed کلیک کنید و برای نمایش متن RAW روی Link View Source کلیک کنید.

    برای اطلاعات بیشتر ، به بازرسی شبکه با پروفایل شبکه مراجعه کنید.

    بارگیری خودکار اجزای SDK

    هنگامی که پروژه شما به یک مؤلفه SDK از سیستم عامل های SDK ، NDK یا CMake نیاز دارد ، Gradle اکنون سعی می کند بسته های مورد نیاز را به طور خودکار بارگیری کند تا زمانی که قبلاً هرگونه توافق نامه مجوز مرتبط را با استفاده از مدیر SDK پذیرفته اید.

    برای اطلاعات بیشتر ، به بسته های مفقود شده بارگذاری خودکار با Gradle مراجعه کنید.

    پشتیبانی از clang-tidy

    Android Studio اکنون شامل پشتیبانی از تجزیه و تحلیل کد استاتیک با استفاده از Clang-tidy برای پروژه هایی است که شامل کد بومی است. برای فعال کردن پشتیبانی از clang-tidy ، NDK خود را به R18 یا بالاتر بروزرسانی کنید .

    سپس می توانید بازرسی ها را با باز کردن گفتگوی تنظیمات یا ترجیحات و هدایت به ویرایشگر> بازرسی ها> C/C ++> عمومی> clang-tidy فعال یا مجدداً فعال کنید. هنگام انتخاب این بازرسی در گفتگوی تنظیمات یا تنظیمات برگزیده ، می توانید لیست چک های Clang-tidy را نیز مشاهده کنید که در قسمت گزینه سمت راست پانل فعال و غیرفعال شده اند. برای فعال کردن چک های اضافی ، آنها را به لیست اضافه کرده و روی Apply کلیک کنید.

    برای پیکربندی clang-tidy با گزینه های اضافی ، روی پیکربندی گزینه های بررسی Clang-tidy کلیک کنید و آنها را در گفتگوی باز شده اضافه کنید.

    حذف گزینه ها برای سفارشی سازی C ++

    گزینه های زیر از گفتگوی پشتیبانی Customize C ++ حذف شده است:

    • پشتیبانی از استثنائات (-Fexceptions)
    • پشتیبانی از اطلاعات نوع زمان اجرا (-ftti)

    رفتارهای مربوطه برای کلیه پروژه های ایجاد شده از طریق Android Studio فعال است.

    نسخه Cmake 3.10.2

    CMake نسخه 3.10.2 اکنون با SDK Manager گنجانده شده است. توجه داشته باشید که Gradle هنوز به طور پیش فرض از نسخه 3.6.0 استفاده می کند.

    برای مشخص کردن نسخه Cmake برای استفاده Gradle ، موارد زیر را به پرونده build.gradle ماژول خود اضافه کنید.

        android {
            ...
            externalNativeBuild {
                cmake {
                    ...
                    version "3.10.2"
                }
            }
        }
        
      

    برای اطلاعات بیشتر در مورد پیکربندی CMake در build.gradle ، به پیکربندی دستی Gradle مراجعه کنید.

    نحو "+" جدید برای مشخص کردن حداقل نسخه های cmake

    هنگام مشخص کردن نسخه Cmake در پرونده build.gradle ماژول اصلی خود ، اکنون می توانید "+" را برای مطابقت با رفتار Cmake's cmake_minimum_required() اضافه کنید.

    احتیاط: استفاده از نحو "+" با سایر وابستگی های ساخت و ساز دلسرد می شود ، زیرا وابستگی های پویا می تواند باعث بروزرسانی های نسخه غیر منتظره و مشکل در حل اختلاف نسخه شود.

    بسته های برنامه Android اکنون از برنامه های فوری پشتیبانی می کنند

    Android Studio اکنون به شما امکان می دهد بسته های برنامه Android را با پشتیبانی کامل از Google Play Instant بسازید. به عبارت دیگر ، اکنون می توانید هر دو برنامه نصب شده و تجربیات فوری را از یک پروژه استودیوی Android ایجاد و مستقر کنید و آنها را در یک بسته برنامه Android قرار دهید.

    اگر با استفاده از گفتگوی ایجاد New Project یک پروژه جدید Android Studio ایجاد می کنید ، حتماً کادر کنار آن را برای پیکربندی پروژه خود بررسی کنید> این پروژه از برنامه های فوری پشتیبانی می کند . Android Studio سپس به طور معمول یک پروژه برنامه جدید ایجاد می کند ، اما شامل ویژگی های زیر در مانیفست شما برای اضافه کردن پشتیبانی برنامه فوری به ماژول پایه برنامه شما است:

        <manifest ... xmlns:dist="http://schemas.android.com/apk/distribution">
            <dist:module dist:instant="true" />
            ...
        </manifest>
        
      

    سپس می توانید با انتخاب فایل> جدید> ماژول جدید از نوار منو ، یک ماژول ویژگی با قابلیت فوری ایجاد کنید و سپس ماژول ویژگی Dynamic Fondy را از گفتگوی ایجاد ماژول جدید انتخاب کنید. به خاطر داشته باشید ، ایجاد این ماژول همچنین ماژول پایه برنامه خود را فوری می کند.

    برای استقرار برنامه خود به یک دستگاه محلی به عنوان یک تجربه فوری ، پیکربندی اجرا خود را ویرایش کرده و کادر کنار General> Deploy را به عنوان برنامه فوری بررسی کنید.

    همگام سازی پروژه تک متناوب

    همگام سازی پروژه خود با پیکربندی ساخت خود یک گام مهم در اجازه دادن به استودیوی اندرویدی است که چگونه پروژه شما ساختار یافته است. با این حال ، این فرایند می تواند برای پروژه های بزرگ وقت گیر باشد. اگر پروژه شما از چندین نوع ساخت استفاده می کند ، اکنون می توانید همگام سازی های پروژه را با محدود کردن آنها فقط به نوع مورد نظر خود در حال حاضر بهینه کنید.

    برای فعال کردن این بهینه سازی باید از Android Studio 3.3 یا بالاتر با افزونه Android Gradle 3.3.0 یا بالاتر استفاده کنید. هنگامی که این الزامات را برآورده می کنید ، IDE شما را وادار می کند تا هنگام همگام سازی پروژه خود ، این بهینه سازی را فعال کنید. بهینه سازی نیز به طور پیش فرض در پروژه های جدید فعال می شود.

    برای فعال کردن این بهینه سازی به صورت دستی ، روی File> Settings> Experimental> Gradle ( Android Studio> Preferences> Experimental> Gradle در MAC) کلیک کنید و تنها Sync the Active Variant Check Check را انتخاب کنید.

    توجه: این بهینه سازی در حال حاضر از پروژه هایی پشتیبانی می کند که فقط زبان برنامه نویسی جاوا را شامل می شود. به عنوان مثال ، IDE کد Kotlin یا C ++ را در پروژه شما تشخیص می دهد ، به طور خودکار این بهینه سازی را فعال نمی کند ، و شما نباید آن را به صورت دستی فعال کنید.

    برای اطلاعات بیشتر ، به Sync Project یک متغیر مراجعه کنید.

    بازخورد سریع ارائه دهید

    اگر برای کمک به بهبود استودیوی اندرویدی تصمیم به اشتراک گذاری آمار استفاده کرده اید ، این دو نماد جدید را در نوار وضعیت در پایین پنجره IDE مشاهده خواهید کرد:

    به سادگی روی نمادی که به بهترین وجه نشان دهنده تجربه فعلی شما با IDE است ، کلیک کنید. هنگامی که این کار را انجام دادید ، IDE آمار استفاده را ارسال می کند که به تیم استودیوی Android اجازه می دهد احساسات شما را بهتر درک کند. در بعضی موارد ، مانند زمانی که شما تجربه منفی با IDE را نشان می دهید ، فرصتی برای ارائه بازخورد اضافی خواهید داشت.

    اگر قبلاً این کار را نکرده اید ، می توانید با باز کردن تنظیمات تنظیمات تنظیمات تنظیمات در MAC ، آمار استفاده را فعال کنید) ، به ظاهر و رفتار> تنظیمات سیستم> اشتراک داده ها و بررسی ارسال آمار استفاده به Google مراجعه کنید.

    3.2 (سپتامبر 2018)

    Android Studio 3.2 نسخه اصلی است که شامل انواع ویژگی ها و پیشرفت های جدید است.

    3.2.1 (اکتبر 2018)

    این به روزرسانی در Android Studio 3.2 شامل تغییرات و اصلاحات زیر است:

    • نسخه Kotlin بسته بندی شده اکنون 1.2.71 است.
    • نسخه پیش فرض Build Tools اکنون 28.0.3 است.
    • در کتابخانه ناوبری ، انواع آرگومان از type به argType تغییر نام داده شده است.
    • اشکالات زیر برطرف شده است:
      • هنگام استفاده از کتابخانه اتصال داده ، نام های متغیر با زیرکانها باعث ایجاد خطاهای تلفیقی می شدند.
      • Cmake باعث ناکامی IntelliSense و سایر ویژگی های Clion شد.
      • اضافه کردن یک SliceProvider در پروژه هایی که از androidx.* کتابخانه ها.
      • برخی از تست های واحد کوتلین در حال اجرا نبودند.
      • مسئله ای با اتصال داده باعث ایجاد PsiInvalidElementAccessException شد.
      • <merge> عناصر گاهی اوقات باعث خراب شدن ویرایشگر طرح می شدند.

    3.2.0 موضوعات شناخته شده

    توجه: این مسائل در Android Studio 3.2.1 برطرف شده است

    • ما به شدت در مورد استفاده از نسخه Kotlin 1.2.70 توصیه می کنیم.

      Kotlin نسخه 1.2.61 اشکالی را برطرف می کند که می تواند استودیوی اندرویدی را آویزان کند ، اما Kotlin 1.2.70 این رفع را شامل نمی شود .

      نسخه های Kotlin 1.2.71 و بعد از آن ، این رفع را شامل می شود.

    • اگرچه شما به طور معمول نیازی به مشخص کردن نسخه Build Tools ندارید ، هنگام استفاده از افزونه Android Gradle 3.2.0 با renderscriptSupportModeEnabled true شده ، باید موارد زیر را در پرونده های build.gradle .

      android.buildToolsVersion "28.0.3"

    دستیار جدید چیست

    یک دستیار جدید شما را در مورد آخرین تغییرات در Android Studio به شما اطلاع می دهد.

    در صورت تشخیص اینکه اطلاعات جدیدی برای نمایش وجود دارد ، دستیار هنگام شروع Android Studio پس از نصب تازه یا به روزرسانی باز می شود. همچنین می توانید با انتخاب راهنما> آنچه در Android Studio جدید است ، دستیار را باز کنید.

    اندروید جت پک

    Android Jetpack به سرعت بخشیدن به توسعه اندرویدی با مؤلفه ها ، ابزارها و راهنمایی هایی که وظایف تکراری را از بین می برد ، کمک می کند و شما را قادر می سازد تا سریعتر و به راحتی برنامه های قابل آزمایش و قابل آزمایش را بسازید. Android Studio شامل به روزرسانی های زیر برای پشتیبانی از JetPack است. برای اطلاعات بیشتر ، به مستندات JetPack مراجعه کنید.

    ویرایشگر جدید ناوبری با اجزای ناوبری Android Jetpack ادغام می شود تا نمای گرافیکی برای ایجاد ساختار ناوبری برنامه شما ارائه دهد. ویرایشگر ناوبری طراحی و اجرای ناوبری بین مقصد درون برنامه را ساده می کند.

    در Android Studio 3.2 ، ویرایشگر ناوبری یک ویژگی آزمایشی است. برای فعال کردن ویرایشگر ناوبری ، روی File> Settings ( Android Studio> Preferences در Mac) کلیک کنید ، دسته آزمایشی را در صفحه سمت چپ انتخاب کنید ، کادر بعدی را برای فعال کردن ویرایشگر ناوبری بررسی کنید و Android Studio را مجدداً راه اندازی کنید.

    برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر ، مستندات ویرایشگر ناوبری را بخوانید.

    مهاجرت Androidx

    به عنوان بخشی از JetPack ، ما با استفاده از فضای نام androidx ، کتابخانه های پشتیبانی Android را به یک کتابخانه جدید پسوند Android منتقل می کنیم. برای اطلاعات بیشتر ، به نمای کلی Androidx مراجعه کنید.

    Android Studio 3.2 با یک ویژگی مهاجرت جدید به شما کمک می کند.

    برای مهاجرت یک پروژه موجود به Androidx ، Refactor> Migrate به Androidx را انتخاب کنید. اگر وابستگی های Maven دارید که به فضای نام Androidx مهاجرت نکرده اند ، سیستم ساخت Android Studio نیز به طور خودکار آن وابستگی های پروژه را تبدیل می کند.

    افزونه Android Gradle پرچم های جهانی زیر را که می توانید در پرونده gradle.properties خود تنظیم کنید ، فراهم می کند:

    • android.useAndroidX : هنگامی که روی true تنظیم شده است ، این پرچم نشان می دهد که از این پس می خواهید از Androidx استفاده کنید. اگر پرچم وجود نداشته باشد ، استودیوی اندرویدی طوری رفتار می کند که انگار پرچم به false تنظیم شده است.
    • android.enableJetifier : هنگامی که روی true تنظیم شده است ، این پرچم نشان می دهد که شما می خواهید پشتیبانی ابزار (از افزونه Android Gradle) داشته باشید تا به طور خودکار کتابخانه های شخص ثالث موجود را تبدیل کنید که گویی برای Androidx نوشته شده است. اگر پرچم وجود نداشته باشد ، استودیوی اندرویدی طوری رفتار می کند که انگار پرچم به false تنظیم شده است.

    هر دو پرچم هنگام استفاده از دستور مهاجرت به Androidx ، true تنظیم می شوند.

    اگر می خواهید بلافاصله استفاده از کتابخانه های Androidx را شروع کنید و نیازی به تبدیل کتابخانه های شخص ثالث موجود ندارید ، می توانید پرچم android.useAndroidX را به true و android.enableJetifier false تنظیم کنید.

    Android App Bundle یک قالب بارگذاری جدید است که شامل تمام کد و منابع کامپایل شده برنامه شما است ، اما تولید APK را نشان می دهد و به فروشگاه Google Play وارد می شود.

    سپس مدل برنامه جدید برنامه Google Play از بسته نرم افزاری برنامه شما برای تولید و ارائه APK های بهینه شده برای پیکربندی دستگاه کاربر استفاده می کند ، بنابراین هر کاربر فقط کد و منابع مورد نیاز خود را برای اجرای برنامه شما بارگیری می کند. شما دیگر نیازی به ساخت ، امضا و مدیریت چندین APK ندارید و کاربران بارگیری های کوچکتر و بهینه تری دریافت می کنند.

    علاوه بر این ، می توانید ماژول های ویژگی را به پروژه برنامه خود اضافه کرده و آنها را در بسته برنامه خود قرار دهید. سپس کاربران شما می توانند ویژگی های برنامه شما را به صورت تقاضا بارگیری و نصب کنند.

    برای ساخت یک بسته نرم افزاری ، Build> Build Bundle (ها) / apk (s)> ساخت بسته (ها) را انتخاب کنید.

    برای اطلاعات بیشتر ، از جمله دستورالعمل های ساخت و تجزیه و تحلیل بسته نرم افزاری برنامه Android ، به بسته نرم افزاری برنامه Android مراجعه کنید.

    نمونه داده ها در ویرایشگر چیدمان

    بسیاری از طرح بندی های اندرویدی دارای داده های زمان اجرا هستند که می تواند تجسم ظاهر و احساس یک طرح را در مرحله طراحی توسعه برنامه دشوار کند. اکنون می توانید به راحتی پیش نمایش نمای خود را در ویرایشگر چیدمان پر از داده های نمونه مشاهده کنید. وقتی یک نمای اضافه می کنید ، یک دکمه در زیر نمای در پنجره طراحی ظاهر می شود. برای تنظیم ویژگی های طراحی زمان ، روی این دکمه کلیک کنید. می توانید از بین انواع الگوهای داده نمونه انتخاب کرده و تعداد موارد نمونه را برای جمع آوری نمای مشخص کنید.

    برای استفاده از داده های نمونه ، یک RecyclerView به یک طرح جدید اضافه کنید ، بر روی دکمه طراحی ویژگی های زمان کلیک کنید در زیر نمای ، و انتخابی از چرخ فلک الگوهای داده نمونه را انتخاب کنید.

    برش

    برش ها روش جدیدی برای تعبیه بخش هایی از عملکرد برنامه شما در سایر سطوح رابط کاربری در Android ارائه می دهند. به عنوان مثال ، برش ها امکان نمایش عملکرد و محتوای برنامه را در پیشنهادات جستجوی Google امکان پذیر می کنند.

    Android Studio 3.2 دارای یک الگوی داخلی برای کمک به شما در گسترش برنامه خود با API های ارائه دهنده Slice جدید ، و همچنین چک های جدید LINT برای اطمینان از اینکه در هنگام ساخت برش بهترین روش ها را دنبال می کنید.

    برای شروع راست روی یک پوشه پروژه کلیک راست کرده و New> Other> Slice Provider را انتخاب کنید.

    برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر ، از جمله نحوه آزمایش تعامل برش خود ، راهنمای شروع کار را بخوانید.

    کوتلین 1.2.61

    Android Studio 3.2 Bundles Kotlin 1.2.61 ، و Android SDK جدید با Kotlin بهتر ادغام می شود. برای اطلاعات بیشتر ، به وبلاگ Android Developers مراجعه کنید.

    Intellij Idea 2018.1.6

    Core Android Studio IDE با پیشرفت از IntelliJ IDEA از طریق نسخه 2018.1.6 به روز شده است.

    پروفایل های اندرویدی

    ویژگی های جدید Android Profiler را در Android Studio 3.2 امتحان کنید.

    جلسات

    اکنون می توانید داده های Profiler را به عنوان جلسات ذخیره کنید تا بعداً مجدداً مورد بازرسی و بازرسی قرار گیرد. پروفایل داده های جلسه شما را تا زمانی که IDE را مجدداً راه اندازی کنید ، نگه می دارد.

    هنگامی که یک روش ردیابی یا ضبط یک زباله پشته را ضبط می کنید ، IDE این داده ها (به همراه فعالیت شبکه برنامه خود را) به عنوان یک ورود جداگانه به جلسه فعلی اضافه می کند ، و می توانید به راحتی بین ضبط ها برای مقایسه داده ها به عقب و عقب برگردید.

    ردیابی سیستم

    در CPU Profiler ، پیکربندی سیستم جدید ردیابی را برای بازرسی از پردازنده سیستم دستگاه و فعالیت نخ خود انتخاب کنید. این پیکربندی ردیابی بر روی systrace ساخته شده است و برای بررسی موضوعات سطح سیستم مانند UI Jank مفید است.

    در حالی که از این پیکربندی ردیابی استفاده می کنید ، می توانید با استفاده از کد C/C ++ خود با API ردیابی بومی یا کد جاوا خود با کلاس Trace ، روالهای مهم کد را در جدول زمانی Profiler علامت گذاری کنید.

    منابع JNI را در پروفایل حافظه بازرسی کنید

    اگر برنامه خود را به دستگاهی که Android 8.0 (API سطح 26) یا بالاتر را اجرا می کند ، مستقر کنید ، اکنون می توانید با استفاده از پروفایل حافظه ، تخصیص حافظه را برای کد JNI برنامه خود بازرسی کنید.

    در حالی که برنامه شما در حال اجرا است ، بخشی از جدول زمانی را که می خواهید بازرسی کنید انتخاب کنید و JNI Heap را از منوی کشویی در بالای لیست کلاس انتخاب کنید ، همانطور که در شکل زیر مشاهده می کنید. سپس می توانید اشیاء موجود در پشته را همانطور که به طور معمول می خواهید بازرسی کنید و اشیاء را در برگه Alocation Call Stack کلیک کنید تا ببینید که منابع JNI در کد شما اختصاص داده شده و در کد شما منتشر می شوند.

    واردات ، صادرات و بازرسی از پرونده های دفع حافظه

    اکنون می توانید پرونده های دفع حافظه .hprof را که با پروفایل حافظه ایجاد شده است ، وارد ، صادرات و بازرسی کنید.

    پرونده .hprof خود را با کلیک روی شروع جلسه جدید Profiler وارد کنید در صفحه جلسات Profiler و سپس انتخاب بار از پرونده . سپس می توانید داده های آن را در پروفایل حافظه بازرسی کنید همانطور که می خواهید هرگونه زباله پشته دیگر.

    برای صرفه جویی در داده های زباله پشته برای بررسی بعدی ، از دکمه Export Heap Dump در سمت راست ورودی زباله پشته در صفحه Sessions استفاده کنید. در گفتگوی Export As که ظاهر می شود ، پرونده را با پسوند نام پرونده .hprof ذخیره کنید.

    ضبط فعالیت CPU در هنگام راه اندازی برنامه

    اکنون می توانید فعالیت CPU را در هنگام راه اندازی برنامه خود ضبط کنید ، به شرح زیر:

    1. Run> ویرایش پیکربندی ها را از منوی اصلی انتخاب کنید.
    2. در زیر برگه پروفایل پیکربندی اجرای مورد نظر خود ، کادر بعدی را برای شروع ضبط یک ردیابی روش در هنگام راه اندازی ، بررسی کنید.
    3. برای استفاده از منوی کشویی ، یک پیکربندی ضبط CPU را انتخاب کنید.
    4. با انتخاب Run> Profile ، برنامه خود را به دستگاهی که Android 8.0 (سطح 26 API 26) یا بالاتر دارد ، مستقر کنید.
    ردپای CPU صادرات

    بعد از ضبط فعالیت CPU با پروفایل CPU ، می توانید داده ها را به عنوان یک پرونده .trace صادر کنید تا با دیگران به اشتراک بگذارید یا بعداً بازرسی کنید.

    برای صادر کردن اثری پس از ضبط فعالیت CPU ، موارد زیر را انجام دهید:

    1. بر روی ضبط که می خواهید از جدول زمانی CPU صادر کنید ، کلیک راست کنید.
    2. Export Trace را از منوی کشویی انتخاب کنید.
    3. به جایی که می خواهید پرونده را ذخیره کنید بروید و روی ذخیره کلیک کنید.
    پرونده های ردیابی CPU را وارد و بازرسی کنید

    اکنون می توانید پرونده های .trace ایجاد شده با API اشکال زدایی یا پروفایل CPU را وارد و بازرسی کنید. (در حال حاضر ، شما نمی توانید ضبط های ردیابی سیستم را وارد کنید.)

    با کلیک بر روی شروع جلسه جدید Profiler ، پرونده ردیابی خود را وارد کنید در صفحه جلسات Profiler و سپس انتخاب بار از پرونده . سپس می توانید داده های آن را در پروفایل CPU مشابه آنچه که به طور عادی انجام می دهید ، با استثنائات زیر بازرسی کنید:

    • فعالیت CPU در طول جدول زمانی CPU نشان داده نشده است.
    • جدول زمانی فعالیت موضوع فقط نشان می دهد که داده های ردیابی برای هر موضوع در دسترس است و نه حالت های واقعی (مانند دویدن ، انتظار یا خواب).
    فعالیت CPU را با استفاده از API اشکال زدایی ضبط کنید

    اکنون می توانید با ابزار کردن برنامه خود با API اشکال زدایی ، ضبط فعالیت CPU را در CPU Profiler شروع و متوقف کنید. پس از استقرار برنامه خود در یک دستگاه ، پروفایل به طور خودکار هنگام شروع تماس با برنامه شما startMethodTracing(String tracePath) ، و پروفایل هنگام stopMethodTracing() برنامه شما متوقف می شود. ضمن ضبط فعالیت CPU که با استفاده از این API ایجاد می شود ، CPU Profiler API اشکال زدایی را به عنوان پیکربندی ضبط CPU انتخاب شده نشان می دهد.

    پروفسور انرژی

    پروفیلر انرژی تجسم مصرف انرژی تخمین زده شده از برنامه شما و همچنین رویدادهای سیستم را نشان می دهد که بر میزان مصرف انرژی ، مانند wakelocks ، آلارم و مشاغل تأثیر می گذارد.

    هنگامی که برنامه خود را بر روی یک دستگاه متصل یا شبیه ساز Android اجرا می کنید Android 8.0 (API 26) یا بالاتر ، به عنوان یک ردیف جدید در پایین پنجره Profiler ظاهر می شود.

    برای به حداکثر رساندن نمای پروفایل انرژی ، روی ردیف انرژی کلیک کنید. نشانگر ماوس خود را روی یک نوار در جدول زمانی قرار دهید تا شاهد خرابی استفاده از انرژی توسط منابع پردازنده ، شبکه و مکان (GPS) و همچنین رویدادهای مربوط به سیستم باشید.

    وقایع سیستم که بر مصرف انرژی تأثیر می گذارد ، در جدول زمانی سیستم زیر جدول زمانی انرژی نشان داده شده است. جزئیات وقایع سیستم در محدوده زمانی مشخص شده در صفحه رویداد هنگام انتخاب محدوده زمانی در جدول زمانی انرژی نشان داده شده است.

    برای دیدن پشته تماس و سایر جزئیات برای یک رویداد سیستم ، مانند Wakelock ، آن را در صفحه رویداد انتخاب کنید. برای رفتن به کد مسئول یک رویداد سیستم ، روی ورودی در پشته تماس بگیرید.

    چک کردن

    Android Studio 3.2 شامل بسیاری از ویژگی های جدید و بهبود یافته برای بررسی خط است.

    بررسی های جدید LINT به شما کمک می کند تا مشکلات کد رایج را پیدا کنید و شناسایی کنید ، از هشدارها در مورد مسائل مربوط به قابلیت استفاده بالقوه گرفته تا خطاهای اولویت بالا در مورد آسیب پذیری های احتمالی امنیتی.

    بررسی های LINT برای قابلیت همکاری Java/Kotlin

    برای اطمینان از اینکه کد جاوا شما با کد Kotlin شما به خوبی تعامل دارد ، چک های جدید LINT بهترین شیوه های شرح داده شده در راهنمای Interop Kotlin را اجرا می کنند. نمونه هایی از این چک ها شامل جستجوی حضور حاشیه نویسی های تهی ، استفاده از کلمات کلیدی سخت کوتلین و قرار دادن پارامترهای لامبدا است.

    برای فعال کردن این چک ها ، برای باز کردن گفتگوی تنظیمات ، روی File> Settings ( Android Studio> Preferences On Mac) کلیک کنید ، به ویرایشگر> بازرسی ها> Android> Lint> قابلیت همکاری> بخش ارتباطات Kotlin بروید و قوانینی را که می خواهید فعال کنید انتخاب کنید.

    برای فعال کردن این چک ها برای ساختهای خط فرمان ، موارد زیر را به پرونده build.gradle خود اضافه کنید:

            android {
                lintOptions {
                    check 'Interoperability'
                }
            }
            
          
    چک های شستشو برای برش ها

    بررسی های جدید برای برش ها برای اطمینان از ساخت صحیح برش ها به شما کمک می کند. به عنوان مثال ، بررسی های LINT به شما هشدار می دهد اگر شما یک عمل اصلی را به یک برش اختصاص نداده اید.

    هدف جدید Gradle

    برای استفاده از تمام اصلاحات ایمن که توسط LINT بررسی مستقیم به کد منبع ارائه می شود ، از کار جدید lintFix Gradle استفاده کنید. نمونه ای از بررسی LINT که نشان می دهد رفع امن برای استفاده از آن ، SyntheticAccessor است.

    به روزرسانی های ابرداده

    ابرداده های مختلف ، مانند بررسی بازیگران سرویس ، برای بررسی های LINT برای کار با Android 9 (API سطح 28) به روز شده است.

    هشدار اگر در حال اجرا بر روی یک نوع جدید است

    اکنون LINT ثبت می کند که کدام نوع و نسخه یک پایه را با آن ضبط می کند ، و اگر آن را بر روی نوع دیگری از نمونه ای که پایه آن ایجاد شده است ، به شما هشدار می دهد.

    پیشرفت در بررسی های موجود

    Android Studio 3.2 شامل پیشرفت های زیادی در بررسی های موجود در LINT است. به عنوان مثال ، بررسی های چرخه منابع اکنون در مورد انواع منابع اضافی اعمال می شود ، و ردیاب ترجمه می تواند ترجمه های مفقود شده در پرواز را در ویرایشگر پیدا کند.

    شناسه ها را کشف کنید

    اکنون شناسه های شماره اکنون در مکان های بیشتری نشان داده شده است ، از جمله در پنجره نتایج بازرسی . این امر پیدا کردن اطلاعاتی را که برای فعال کردن یا غیرفعال کردن چک های خاص از طریق lintOptions در build.gradle برای شما آسان تر می کند ، برای شما آسان تر می کند.

    برای اطلاعات بیشتر ، به گزینه های پیکربندی LINT با Gradle مراجعه کنید.

    داده های اتصال v2

    اتصال داده V2 اکنون به طور پیش فرض فعال شده و با V1 سازگار است. این بدان معنی است که ، اگر وابستگی های کتابخانه ای را که با V1 تهیه کرده اید ، دارید ، می توانید از آنها با پروژه هایی با استفاده از داده اتصال V2 استفاده کنید. با این حال ، توجه داشته باشید که پروژه هایی با استفاده از V1 نمی توانند وابستگی هایی را که با V2 تهیه شده اند ، مصرف کنند.

    D8 Desugaring

    در Android Studio 3.1 ، ما مرحله desugaring را در ابزار D8 به عنوان یک ویژگی آزمایشی ادغام کردیم و زمان ساخت کلی را کاهش داد. در Android Studio 3.2 ، Desugaring با D8 به طور پیش فرض روشن می شود.

    کوچکتر کد جدید

    R8 ابزاری جدید برای کوچک شدن کد و انسداد است که جایگزین Proguard می شود. شما می توانید با استفاده از نسخه پیش نمایش R8 با استفاده از موارد زیر در پرونده gradle.properties پروژه خود شروع کنید:

          android.enableR8 = true
        

    پیش فرض ABIS را برای چند برنامه تغییر داد

    هنگام ساختن چندین APK که هر یک از آنها ABI متفاوت را هدف قرار می دهد ، این افزونه دیگر به طور پیش فرض APK را برای ABI های زیر تولید نمی کند: mips ، mips64 و armeabi .

    اگر می خواهید APK هایی بسازید که این ABI ها را هدف قرار دهد ، باید از NDK R16B یا پایین تر استفاده کنید و ABIS را در پرونده build.gradle خود مشخص کنید ، همانطور که در زیر آمده است:

        splits {
            abi {
                include 'armeabi', 'mips', 'mips64'
                ...
            }
        }
        
        splits {
            abi {
                include("armeabi", "mips", "mips64")
                ...
            }
        }
        

    توجه: این تغییر رفتار همچنین در Android Studio 3.1 RC1 و بالاتر گنجانده شده است.

    ویژگی های ویرایشگر بهبود یافته برای پرونده های ساخت Cmake

    اگر از CMake برای افزودن کد C و C ++ به پروژه خود استفاده می کنید ، Android Studio اکنون شامل ویژگی های ویرایشگر بهبود یافته است تا به شما در ویرایش اسکریپت های ساخت Cmake خود مانند موارد زیر کمک کند:

    • برجسته سازی نحو و تکمیل کد: IDE اکنون تکمیل کد را برای دستورات Cmake مشترک برجسته می کند و پیشنهاد می کند. Additionally, you can navigate to a file by clicking it while pressing the Control key (Command on Mac).
    • Code reformatting: You can now use IntelliJ's code reformat option to apply code styles to your CMake build scripts.
    • Safe refactoring: The IDE's built-in refactoring tools now also check if you are renaming or deleting files that you reference in your CMake build scripts.

    When using the Project window in previous versions of Android Studio, you could navigate and inspect only the header files that belong to libraries you build from a local project. With this release, you can now also view and inspect header files included with external C/C++ library dependencies that you import into your app project.

    If you already include C/C++ code and libraries in your project , open the Project window on the left side of the IDE by selecting View > Tool Windows > Project from the main menu and select Android from the drop-down menu. In the cpp directory, all headers that are within the scope of your app project are organized under the include node for each of your local C/C++ library dependencies, as shown below.

    Native multidex enabled by default

    Previous versions of Android Studio enabled native multidex when deploying the debug version of an app to a device running Android API level 21 or higher. Now, whether you're deploying to a device or building an APK for release, the Android plugin for Gradle enables native multidex for all modules that set minSdkVersion=21 or higher.

    AAPT2 moved to Google's Maven repository

    Beginning with Android Studio 3.2, the source for AAPT2 (Android Asset Packaging Tool 2) is Google's Maven repository.

    To use AAPT2, make sure that you have a google() dependency in your build.gradle file, as shown here:

        buildscript {
            repositories {
                google() // here
                jcenter()
            }
            dependencies {
                classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0'
            }
        }
        allprojects {
            repositories {
                google() // and here
                jcenter()
            }
        }
        
        buildscript {
            repositories {
                google() // here
                jcenter()
            }
            dependencies {
                classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0")
            }
        }
        allprojects {
            repositories {
                google() // and here
                jcenter()
            }
        }
        

    The new version of AAPT2 fixes many issues, including improved handling of non-ASCII characters on Windows.

    Removal of configuration on demand

    The Configure on demand preference has been removed from Android Studio.

    Android Studio no longer passes the --configure-on-demand argument to Gradle.

    ADB Connection Assistant

    The new ADB Connection Assistant provides step-by-step instructions to help you set up and use a device over the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) connection.

    To start the assistant, choose Tools > Connection Assistant .

    The ADB Connection Assistant provides instructions, in-context controls, and a list of connected devices in a series of pages in the Assistant panel.

    Emulator improvements

    You can now save and load snapshots of an AVD (Android virtual device) at any time in the Android Emulator, making it fast and easy to return an emulated device to a known state for testing. When you edit an AVD using the AVD Manager, you can specify which AVD snapshot to load when the AVD starts.

    Controls for saving, loading, and managing AVD snapshots are now in the Snapshots tab in the emulator's Extended controls window.

    For details, see Snapshots .

    For additional information on what's new and changed in the Emulator, see the Emulator release notes .

    3.1 (March 2018)

    Android Studio 3.1.0 is a major release that includes a variety of new features and improvements.

    3.1.4 (August 2018)

    This update to Android Studio 3.1 includes the following changes and fixes:

    • The bundled Kotlin is now version 1.2.50.
    • New projects are created with kotlin-stdlib-jdk* artifacts , rather than with kotlin-stdlib-jre* artifacts, which are deprecated.
    • R8 parsing of ProGuard rules has been improved.
    • The following bugs have been fixed:
      • Attempting to run the Kotlin Main class failed with an error: "Error: Could not find or load main class..."
      • R8 entered an infinite loop while performing certain optimizations.
      • Using the Rerun failed tests command in the Run window sometimes incorrectly returned the message "No tests were found".
      • D8 did not correctly handle invoke-virtual instances, causing a crash with a VerifyError : invoke-super/virtual can't be used on private method
      • The Data Binding compiler was depending on an old version of com.android.tools:annotations . The compiler now uses tools annotations from the base project when available.
      • Android Studio crashed during fragment transitions when using profilers.
      • The debugger crashed when debugging a layout with a text box.
      • D8 failed to read some ZIP files with special characters.

    3.1.3 (June 2018)

    This update to Android Studio 3.1 includes fixes for the following bugs:

    • Memory leaks caused Android Studio to become slow and unresponsive after you had been using the Layout Editor. This update includes fixes for most of these issues. We intend to release another update soon to address additional memory leaks.
    • Some applications built with D8 crashed on some Verizon Ellipsis tablets.
    • Installation of applications built with D8 failed with an INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT error on devices running Android 5.0 or 5.1 (API level 21 or 22).
    • Some applications that used the OkHttp library and were built with D8 crashed on devices running Android 4.4 (API level 19).
    • Android Studio sometimes failed to start, with a ProcessCanceledException during class initialization for com.intellij.psi.jsp.JspElementType .

    3.1.2 (April 2018)

    This update to Android Studio 3.1 includes fixes for the following bugs:

    • In some cases, Android Studio hung indefinitely during exit.
    • Builds configured with source sets failed with the following message when Instant Run was enabled:

      "The SourceSet name is not recognized by the Android Gradle Plugin."

    • When Instant Run was enabled, builds of new Kotlin projects failed when triggered by the Run command.
    • During editing of the build.gradle file, there was sometimes a noticeable delay between typing a character and the character appearing on the screen.
    • Build failures occurred during dexing in some projects with large numbers of modules or external dependencies, with the following error message:

      "RejectedExecutionException: Thread limit exceeded replacing blocked worker"

    • The computation of the D8 main DEX list was not taking into account some reflective invocations.

    This update also includes changes that make running lint checks from Gradle much faster in some scenarios.

    3.1.1 (April 2018)

    This update to Android Studio 3.1 includes fixes for the following bugs:

    • In some cases, when a project created in Android Studio 3.0 was opened for the first time in Android Studio 3.1, the Gradle-aware Make task was removed from the Before launch area in Run/Debug Configurations . The result was that projects did not build when the Run or Debug button was clicked, which in turn caused failures such as deployment of incorrect APKs and crashes when using Instant Run.

      To solve this problem, Android Studio 3.1.1 adds the Gradle-aware Make task to the run configuration for projects that are missing this entry. This modification occurs after the first Gradle sync when the project is loaded.

    • The debugger crashed when debugging a layout with a text box if advanced profiling was enabled.
    • Android Studio froze after you clicked Build Variants .
    • AAR (Android archive) files were extracted twice, once during the Gradle sync process and once during the Gradle build process.
    • Elements were missing from some vector drawables imported from SVG files.
    • The warning regarding the deprecation of the compile dependency configuration has been updated with better guidance regarding the implementation and api configurations. For details of migrating away from using the compile configuration, see the documentation for the new dependency configurations .

    Coding/IDE

    IntelliJ 2017.3.3

    The core Android Studio IDE has been updated with improvements from IntelliJ IDEA through the 2017.3.3 release. Improvements include better control flow analysis for collections and strings, improved nullability inference, new quick fixes, and much more.

    For details, see the JetBrains release notes for IntelliJ IDEA versions 2017.2 and 2017.3 , as well as the JetBrains release notes for bug-fix updates .

    SQL editing improvements with Room

    When you use the Room database library , you can take advantage of several improvements to SQL editing:

    • Code completion within a Query understands SQL tables (entities), columns, query parameters, aliases, joins, subqueries, and WITH clauses.
    • SQL syntax highlighting now works.
    • You can right-click a table name in SQL and rename it, which also rewrites the corresponding Java or Kotlin code (including, for example, the return type of the query). Renaming works in the other direction, too, so renaming a Java class or field rewrites the corresponding SQL code.
    • SQL usages are shown when using Find usages (right-click and choose Find usages from the context menu).
    • To navigate to an SQL entity's declaration in Java or Kotlin code, you can hold Control (Command on Mac) while clicking the entity.

    For information on using SQL with Room, see Save data in a local database using Room .

    Updates to data binding

    This update includes several improvements for data binding :

    • You can now use a LiveData object as an observable field in data binding expressions. The ViewDataBinding class now includes a new setLifecycle() method that you use to observe LiveData objects.

    • The ObservableField class can now accept other Observable objects in its constructor.

    • You can preview a new incremental compiler for your data binding classes. For details of this new compiler and instructions for enabling it, see Data Binding Compiler V2 .

      Benefits of the new compiler include the following:

      • ViewBinding classes are generated by the Android Plugin for Gradle before the Java compiler.
      • Libraries keep their generated binding classes when the app is compiled, rather than being regenerated each time. This can greatly improve performance for multi-module projects.

    Compiler and Gradle

    D8 is the default DEX compiler

    The D8 compiler is now used by default for generating DEX bytecode.

    This new DEX compiler brings with it several benefits, including the following:

    • Faster dexing
    • مصرف حافظه کمتر
    • Improved code generation (better register allocation, smarter string tables)
    • Better debugging experience when stepping through code

    You don't need to make any changes to your code or your development workflow to get these benefits, unless you had previously manually disabled the D8 compiler.

    If you set android.enableD8 to false in your gradle.properties , either delete that flag or set it to true :

            android.enableD8=true
          

    For details, see New DEX compiler .

    Incremental desugaring

    For projects that use Java 8 language features , incremental desugaring is enabled by default, which can improve build times.

    Desugaring converts syntactic sugar into a form that the compiler can process more efficiently.

    You can disable incremental desugaring by specifying the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

            android.enableIncrementalDesugaring=false
          
    Simplified output window

    The Gradle Console has been replaced with the Build window, which has Sync and Build tabs.

    For details about how to use the new, simplified Build window, see Monitor the build process .

    Batch updates and indexing concurrency

    The Gradle sync and IDE indexing processes are now much more efficient, reducing time wasted on many redundant indexing operations.

    C++ and LLDB

    We have made many quality and performance improvements in the coding, syncing, building, and debugging phases of C++ development. Improvements include the following:

    • If you work with large C++ projects, you should notice a significant improvement in the reduction of time spent building symbols. Sync time is also greatly reduced for large projects.

    • Performance when building and syncing with CMake has been improved through more aggressive reuse of cached results.

    • The addition of formatters ("pretty printers") for more C++ data structures makes LLDB output easier to read.

    • LLDB now works with only Android 4.1 (API level 16) and higher.

    Note: Native debugging with Android Studio 3.0 or greater does not work on 32-bit Windows. If you are using 32-bit Windows and need to debug native code, use Android Studio 2.3.

    کاتلین

    Kotlin upgraded to version 1.2.30

    Android Studio 3.1 includes Kotlin version 1.2.30 .

    Kotlin code now analyzed with command-line lint check

    Running lint from the command line now analyzes your Kotlin classes.

    For each project that you would like to run lint on, Google's Maven repository must be included in the top-level build.gradle file. The Maven repository is already included for projects created in Android Studio 3.0 and higher.

    ابزارهای عملکرد

    Sample native C++ processes with CPU Profiler

    The CPU Profiler now includes a default configuration to record sampled traces of your app's native threads. You can use this configuration by deploying your app to a device running Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher and then selecting Sampled (Native) from the CPU Profiler's recording configurations dropdown menu. After that, record and inspect a trace as you normally would.

    You can change default settings, such as the sampling interval, by creating a recording configuration .

    To switch back to tracing your Java threads, select either a Sampled (Java) or Instrumented (Java) configuration.

    Filter CPU traces, memory allocation results, and heap dumps

    The CPU Profiler and Memory Profiler include a search feature that allows you to filter results from recording a method trace, memory allocations, or heap dump.

    To search, click Filterin the top-right corner of the pane, type your query, and press Enter.

    Tip: You can also open the search field by pressing Control + F (Command + F on Mac).

    In the CPU Profiler's Flame Chart tab, call stacks that include methods related to your search query are highlighted and moved to the left side of the chart.

    For more information on filtering by method, class, or package name, see Record and inspect method traces .

    Request tab in the Network Profiler

    The Network Profiler now includes a Request tab that provides details about network requests during the selected timeline. In previous versions, the Network Profiler only provided information about network responses.

    Thread View in the Network Profiler

    After selecting a portion of the timeline in the Network Profiler , you can select one of the following tabs to see more detail about the network activity during that timeframe:

    • Connection View : Provides the same information as previous versions of Android Studio—it lists files that were sent or received during the selected portion of the timeline across all of your app's CPU threads. For each request, you can inspect the size, type, status, and transmission duration.
    • Thread View : Displays network activity of each of your app's CPU threads. This view allows you to inspect which of your app's threads are responsible for each network request.

    Layout Inspector

    The Layout Inspector gained new features, including some functionality previously provided by the deprecated Hierarchy Viewer and Pixel Perfect tools:

    • Zoom buttons and keyboard shortcuts for navigating and inspecting layouts
    • Reference grid overlay
    • Ability to load a reference image and use it as an overlay (useful for comparing your layout with a UI mockup)
    • Render subtree preview to isolate a view in a complex layout

    ویرایشگر چیدمان

    The Palette in the Layout Editor has received many improvements:

    • Reorganization of categories for views and layouts.
    • New Common category for views and layouts, which you can add to with a Favorite command.
    • Improved search for views and layouts .
    • New commands for opening documentation for a specific view or layout element.

    You can use the new Convert view command in the Component tree or design editor to convert a view or layout to another type of view or layout.

    You can now easily create constraints to items near the selected view using the new Create a connection buttons in the view inspector at the top of the Attributes window.

    Run and Instant Run

    The behavior of the Use same selection for future launches option in the Select deployment target dialog has been made more consistent. If the Use same selection option is enabled, then the Select deployment target dialog opens only the first time that you use the Run command until the selected device is no longer connected.

    When targeting a device running Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher, Instant Run can deploy changes to resources without causing an application restart. This is possible because the resources are contained in a split APK.

    شبیه ساز

    For details of what's new and changed in the emulator since Android Studio 3.0, see the Android Emulator release notes from version 27.0.2 through version 27.1.12 .

    Major improvements include the following:

    • Quick Boot snapshots for saving of emulator state and faster start, with the ability to use the Save now command to save a custom start state.
    • Windowless emulator screen.
    • System images for Android 8.0 (API level 26), Android 8.1 (API level 27), and Android P Developer Preview.

    User interface and user experience improvements

    More tooltips, keyboard shortcuts, and helpful messages

    We have added tooltips and helpful message overlays in many places throughout Android Studio.

    To see keyboard shortcuts for many commands, just hold the mouse pointer over a button until the tooltip appears.

    Tools > Android menu removed

    The Tools > Android menu has been removed. Commands that were previously under this menu have been moved.

    • Many commands moved to directly under the Tools menu.
    • The Sync project with gradle files command moved to the File menu.
    • The Device Monitor command has been removed, as described below.

    Device Monitor available from the command line

    In Android Studio 3.1, the Device Monitor serves less of a role than it previously did. In many cases, the functionality available through the Device Monitor is now provided by new and improved tools.

    See the Device Monitor documentation for instructions for invoking the Device Monitor from the command line and for details of the tools available through the Device Monitor.

    3.0 (October 2017)

    Android Studio 3.0.0 is a major release that includes a variety of new features and improvements.

    macOS users: If you are updating an older version of Android Studio, you may encounter an update error dialog that says "Some conflicts were found in the installation area". Simply ignore this error and click Cancel to resume the installation.

    3.0.1 (November 2017)

    This is a minor update to Android Studio 3.0 that includes general bug fixes and performance improvements.

    Android Plugin for Gradle 3.0.0

    The new Android plugin for Gradle includes a variety of improvements and new features, but it primarily improves build performance for projects that have a large number of modules. When using the new plugin with these large projects, you should experience the following:

    • Faster build configuration times due to new delayed dependency resolution.
    • Variant-aware dependency resolution for only the projects and variants you are building.
    • Faster incremental build times when applying simple changes to code or resources.

    Note: These improvements required significant changes that break some of the plugin's behaviors, DSL, and APIs. Upgrading to version 3.0.0 might require changes to your build files and Gradle plugins.

    This version also includes the following:

    • Support for Android 8.0.
    • Support for building separate APKs based on language resources.
    • Support for Java 8 libraries and Java 8 language features (without the Jack compiler).
    • Support for Android Test Support Library 1.0 (Android Test Utility and Android Test Orchestrator ).
    • Improved ndk-build and cmake build speeds.
    • Improved Gradle sync speed.
    • AAPT2 is now enabled by default.
    • Using ndkCompile is now more restricted. You should instead migrate to using either CMake or ndk-build to compile native code that you want to package into your APK. To learn more, read Migrate from ndkcompile .

    For more information about what's changed, see the Android Plugin for Gradle release notes .

    If you're ready to upgrade to the new plugin, see Migrate to Android Plugin for Gradle 3.0.0 .

    پشتیبانی کاتلین

    As announced at Google I/O 2017 , the Kotlin programming language is now officially supported on Android. So with this release, Android Studio includes Kotlin language support for Android development.

    You can incorporate Kotlin into your project by converting a Java file to Kotlin (click Code > Convert Java File to Kotlin File ) or by creating a new Kotlin- enabled project using the New Project wizard.

    To get started, read how to add Kotlin to your project .

    Java 8 language features support

    You can now use certain Java 8 language features and consume libraries built with Java 8. Jack is no longer required , and you should first disable Jack to use the improved Java 8 support built into the default toolchain.

    To update your project to support the new Java 8 language toolchain, update the Source Compatibility and Target Compatibility to 1.8 in the Project Structure dialog (click File > Project Structure ). To learn more, read how to use Java 8 language features .

    Android Profiler

    The new Android Profiler replaces the Android Monitor tool and provides a new suite of tools to measure your app's CPU, memory, and network usage in realtime. You can perform sample-based method tracing to time your code execution, capture heap dumps, view memory allocations, and inspect the details of network-transmitted files.

    To open, click View > Tool Windows > Android Profiler (or click Android Profiler in the toolbar).

    The event timeline at the top of the window shows touch events, key presses, and activity changes so you have more context to understand other performance events in the timeline.

    Note: The Logcat view also moved to a separate window (it was previously inside Android Monitor, which was removed).

    From the Android Profiler's overview timeline, click on the CPU , MEMORY , or NETWORK timelines to access the corresponding profiler tools.

    پروفایل CPU

    The CPU Profiler helps you analyze the CPU thread usage of your app by triggering a sample or instrumented CPU trace. Then, you can troubleshoot CPU performance issues using a variety of data views and filters.

    For more information, see the CPU Profiler guide .

    نمایه کننده حافظه

    The Memory Profiler helps you identify memory leaks and memory churn that can lead to stutter, freezes, and even app crashes. It shows a realtime graph of your app's memory use, lets you capture a heap dump, force garbage collections, and track memory allocations.

    For more information, see the Memory Profiler guide .

    Network Profiler

    The Network Profiler allows you to monitor the network activity of your app, inspect the payload of each of your network requests, and link back to the code that generated the network request.

    For more information, see the Network Profiler guide .

    APK profiling and debugging

    Android Studio now allows you to profile and debug any APK without having to build it from an Android Studio project—as long as the APK is built to enable debugging and you have access to the debug symbols and source files.

    To get started, click Profile or debug APK from the Android Studio Welcome screen. Or, if you already have a project open, click File > Profile or debug APK from the menu bar. This displays the unpacked APK files, but it does not decompile the code. So, to properly add breakpoints and view stack traces, you need to attach Java source files and native debug symbols.

    For more information, see Profile and Debug Pre-built APKs .

    Device File Explorer

    The new Device File Explorer allows you to inspect your connected device's filesystem, and transfer files between the device and your computer. This replaces the filesystem tool available in DDMS.

    To open, click View > Tool Windows > Device File Explorer .

    For more information, see the Device File Explorer guide .

    Instant Apps support

    New support for Android Instant Apps allows you to create Instant Apps in your project using two new module types : Instant App modules and Feature modules (these require that you install the Instant Apps Development SDK ).

    Android Studio also includes a new modularize refactoring action to help you add support for Instant Apps in an existing project. For example, if you want to refactor your project to place some classes in an Instant App feature module, select the classes in the Project window and click Refactor > Modularize . In the dialog that appears, select the module where the classes should go and click OK .

    And when you're ready to test your Instant App, you can build and run your Instant App module on a connected device by specifying the Instant App's URL within the run configuration launch options : Select Run > Edit Configurations , select your Instant App module, and then set the URL under Launch Options .

    For more information, see Android Instant Apps .

    Android Things modules

    New Android Things templates in the New Project and New Module wizards to help you start developing for Android-powered IOT devices.

    For more information, see how to create an Android Things project .

    Adaptive Icons wizard

    Image Asset Studio now supports vector drawables and allows you to create adaptive launcher icons for Android 8.0 while simultaneously creating traditional icons ("Legacy" icons) for older devices.

    To start, right-click on the res folder in your project, and then click New > Image Asset . In the Asset Studio window, select Launcher Icons (Adaptive and Legacy) as the icon type.

    Note: You must set compileSdkVersion to 26 or higher to use adaptive launcher icons.

    For more information, read about Adaptive Icons .

    Support for font resources

    To support the new font resources in Android 8.0, Android Studio includes a font resources selector to help bundle fonts into your app or configure your project to download the fonts on the device (when available). The layout editor can also preview the fonts in your layout.

    To try downloadable fonts, ensure that your device or emulator is running Google Play Services v11.2.63 or higher. For more information, read about Downloadable Fonts .

    Firebase App Indexing Assistant

    The Firebase Assistant has been updated with a new tutorial to test App Indexing . To open the Assistant, select Tools > Firebase . Then select App Indexing > Test App Indexing .

    The tutorial includes new buttons to test your public and personal content indexing:

    • In step 2, click Preview search results to verify that your URLs are showing up in Google Search results.
    • In step 3, click Check for errors to verify that the indexable objects in your app have been added to the personal content index.

    The App Links Assistant has been updated with the following new capabilities:

    • Add URL tests for each URL mapping to be sure your intent filters handle real-world URLs.

      You can also define these URL tests by hand using the <tools:validation> tag described below.

    • Create a Digital Asset Links file with the appropriate object entry to support Google Smart Lock , and add the corresponding asset_statements <meta-data> tag to your manifest file.

    URL intent-filter validator

    Android Studio now supports a special tag in the manifest file that allows you to test your intent filter URLs . These are the same tags that the App Links Assistant can create for you .

    To declare a test URL for an intent filter, add a <tools:validation> element alongside the corresponding <intent-filter> element. به عنوان مثال:

          <activity ...>
              <intent-filter>
                  ...
              </intent-filter>
              <tools:validation testUrl="https://www.example.com/recipe/1138" />
          </activity>
        
        

    Be sure to also include xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" in the <manifest> tag.

    If any one of the test URLs does not pass the intent filter definition, a lint error appears. Such an error still allows you to build debug variants, but it will break your release builds.

    ویرایشگر چیدمان

    The Layout Editor has been updated with a number of enhancements, including the following:

    • New toolbar layout and icons.
    • Updated layout in the component tree.
    • Improved drag-and-drop view insertions.
    • New error panel below the editor, showing all issues with suggestions to fix (if available).
    • Various UI enhancements for building with ConstraintLayout , including the following:
      • New support to create barriers .
      • New support to create groups: In the toolbar, select Guidelines > Add Group (requires ConstraintLayout 1.1.0 beta 2 or higher)
      • New UI to create chains: Select multiple views, and then right-click and select Chain .

    Layout Inspector

    The Layout Inspector includes enhancements to make it easier to debug issues with your app layouts, including grouping properties into common categories and new search functionality in both the View Tree and the Properties panes.

    APK Analyzer

    You can now use the APK Analyzer from the command line with the apkanalyzer tool.

    The APK Analyzer has also been updated with the following improvements:

    • For APKs built with ProGuard, you can load ProGuard mapping files that add capabilities to the DEX viewer, including:
      • Bolded nodes to indicate that the nodes should not be removed when shrinking code.
      • A button to show nodes that were removed during the shrinking process.
      • A button that restores the original names of nodes in the tree view that were obfuscated by ProGuard.
    • The DEX Viewer now shows the estimated size impact of each package, class and method.
    • New filtering options at the top to show and hide fields and methods.
    • In the tree view, nodes that are references not defined in the DEX file appear in italics.

    For more information, see Analyze Your Build with APK Analyzer .

    Preview for D8 DEX compiler

    Android Studio 3.0 includes an optional new DEX compiler called D8. It will eventually replace the DX compiler, but you can opt-in to use the new D8 compiler now.

    DEX compilation directly impacts your app's build time, .dex file size, and runtime performance. And when comparing the new D8 compiler with the current DX compiler, D8 compiles faster and outputs smaller .dex files, while having the same or better app runtime performance.

    To try it, set the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

    android.enableD8=true
        

    For more information, see the blog post about the D8 compiler .

    Google's Maven repository

    Android Studio now uses Google's Maven Repository by default instead of depending on the Android SDK Manager to get updates for Android Support Library, Google Play Services, Firebase, and other dependencies. This makes it easier to keep your libraries up to date, especially when using a continuous integration (CI) system.

    All new projects now include the Google Maven repository by default. To update your existing project, add google() in the repositories block of the top-level build.gradle file:

          allprojects {
              repositories {
                  google()
              }
          }
        
        

    Learn more about Google's Maven repository here .

    تغییرات دیگر

    • Native debugging with Android Studio no longer supports 32-bit Windows. We've chosen to focus on other platforms because very few developers are using this platform. If you are using 32-bit Windows and you plan to debug native code, you should keep using Android Studio 2.3 .
    • Upgraded the base IDE to IntelliJ 2017.1.2 , which adds a number of new features from 2016.3 and 2017.1 , such as Java 8 language refactoring, parameter hints, semantic highlighting, draggable breakpoints, instant results in search, and much more.
    • Added many new lint checks.

          </li>
          <li>Object Animator Validation: Lint analyzes your code to make sure that
          your <code>ObjectAnimator</code> calls reference valid methods with the
          right signatures and checks that those methods are annotated with <code>
            @Keep</code> to prevent ProGuard from renaming or removing them during
            release builds.
          </li>
          <li>Unnecessary Item Decorator Copy: Older versions of the
          <code>RecyclerView</code> library did not include a divider decorator
          class, but one was provided as a sample in the support demos. Recent
          versions of the library have a divider decorator class. Lint looks for
          the old sample and suggests replacing it with the new one.
          </li>
          <li>WifiManager Leak: Prior to Android 7.0 (API level 24), initializing
          the <code>WifiManager</code> with <code><a href="/reference/android/content/Context.html#getSystemService(java.lang.Class&lt;T&gt;)">Context.getSystemService()</a></code>
          can cause a memory leak if the context is not the application context.
          Lint looks for these initializations, and if it <em>cannot</em> determine
          that the context is the application context, it suggests you use <code><a href="/reference/android/content/Context.html#getApplicationContext()">Context.getApplicationContext()</a></code> to get the proper context for the
          initialization.
          </li>
          <li>Improved Resource Prefix: The existing <code>resourcePrefix</code>
          lint check had many limitations. You can now configure your project with
          a prefix, such as <code>android { resourcePrefix '<var>my_lib</var>'
          }</code>, and lint makes sure that all of your resources are using this
          prefix. You can use variations of the name for styles and themes. For
          example for the <var>my_lib</var> prefix, you can have themes named
          <code>MyLibTheme</code>, <code>myLibAttr</code>,
          <code>my_lib_layout</code>, and so on.
          </li>
          <li>Switch to WebP: This check identifies images in your project that can
          be converted to WebP format based on your project’s
          <code>minSdkVersion</code> setting. An associated quickfix can
          automatically convert the images, or you can <a href=
          "/studio/write/convert-webp.html">convert images to WebP</a> manually.
          </li>
          <li>Unsafe WebP: If your project already includes WebP images, this check
          analyzes your project to ensure that your <code>minSdkVersion</code>
          setting is high enough to support the included images. For more

    <p class="note">
      <b>Known issue:</b> Some device manufacturers block apps from automatically
      launching after being installed on the device. When deploying your app to a
      physical device using Android Studio 2.3, this restriction breaks the
      intended behavior of Instant Run and causes the following error output:
      <code>Error: Not found; no service started</code>. To avoid this issue,
      either <a href="/studio/run/emulator.html">use the emulator</a> or enable
      automatic launching for your app in your device's settings. The procedure
      for doing this is different for each device, so check the instructions
      provided by the manufacturer. To learn more about this issue, see

    2.1 (April 2016)

    The primary changes in this update provide support for development with the Android N Preview.

    2.1.3 (August 2016)

    This update adds compatibility with Gradle 2.14.1, which includes performance improvements, new features, and an important security fix . For more details, see the Gradle release notes .

    By default, new projects in Android Studio 2.1.3 use Gradle 2.14.1. For existing projects, the IDE prompts you to upgrade to Gradle 2.14.1 and Android plugin for Gradle 2.1.3 , which is required when using Gradle 2.14.1 and higher.

    2.1.2 (June 2016)

    This update includes a number of small changes and bug fixes:

    • Instant Run updates and bug fixes.
    • Improvements to LLDB performance and crash notifications.
    • Fixed a regression in the Android Studio 2.1.1 security update that caused git rebase to fail.

    2.1.1 (May 2016)

    Security release update.

    The Android N platform adds support for Java 8 language features , which require a new experimental compiler called Jack. The latest version of Jack is currently supported only in Android Studio 2.1. So if you want to use Java 8 language features, you need to use Android Studio 2.1 to build your app.

    Note: Instant Run is disabled when you enable the Jack compiler because they currently are not compatible.

    Although Android Studio 2.1 is now stable, the Jack compiler is still experimental and you must enable it with the jackOptions property in your build.gradle file.

    Other than the changes to support the N Preview, Android Studio 2.1 includes minor bug fixes and the following enhancements:

    • The Java-aware C++ debugger is now enabled by default when you're using an N device or emulator and select Native debugger mode (in the Debugger tab for your run/debug configuration).

    For other build enhancements, including incremental Java compilation and dexing-in-process,update your Android plugin for Gradle to version 2.1.0.

    2.0 (April 2016)

    Note: If you are developing for the N Developer Preview, you should use Android Studio 2.1 Preview. Android Studio 2.0 does not support all the features required to target the N Preview.

    Instant Run :

    • Android Studio now deploys clean builds faster than ever before. Additionally, pushing incremental code changes to the emulator or a physical device is now almost instantaneous. Review your updates without redeploying a new debug build or, in many cases, without restarting the app.
    • Instant Run supports pushing the following changes to a running app:
      • Changes to the implementation of an existing instance method or static method
      • Changes to an existing app resource
      • Changes to structural code, such as a method signature or a static field (requires a target device running API level 21 or higher).
    • Read the documentation to learn more about Instant Run .

      Note: Instant Run is supported only when you deploy the debug build variant, use Android plugin for Gradle version 2.0.0 or higher, and configure your app's module-level build.gradle file for minSdkVersion 15 or higher. For the best performance, configure your app for minSdkVersion 21 or higher.

    New additions to Lint:

    • Inspection of switch statements using @IntDef annotated integers to make sure all constants are handled. To quickly add any missing statements, use the intention action drop-down menu and select Add Missing @IntDef Constants .
    • Flags for incorrect attempts to use string interpolation to insert version numbers in the build.gradle file.
    • Flags for anonymous classes that extend the Fragment class.
    • Flags for native code in unsafe locations, such as the res/ and asset/ folders. This flag encourages storing native code in the libs/ folder, which is then securely packaged into the application's data/app-lib/ folder at install time. AOSP: #169950
    • Flags for unsafe calls to Runtime.load() and System.load() calls. AOSP: #179980
    • Find and remove any unused resources by selecting Refactor > Remove Unused Resources from the menu bar. Unused resource detection now supports resources only referenced by unused resources, references in raw files such as .html image references, and tools:keep and tools:discard attributes used by the Gradle resource shrinker, while considering inactive source sets (such as resources used in other build flavors) and properly handling static field imports.
    • Checks that implicit API references are supported on all platforms targeted by minSdkVersion .
    • Flags improper usage of RecyclerView and Parcelable .
    • @IntDef , @IntRange , and @Size inspections are now also checked for int arrays and varargs.

    Additional Improvements :

    • Optimized for Android Emulator 2.0, which is faster than ever before, supports a wider range of virtual devices, and features a drastically improved UI. To learn more about the new emulator, read the SDK Tools release notes .
    • Improvements to the Android Virtual Device Manager :
      • System images are now categorized under the following tabs: Recommended , x86 , and Other .
      • Under advanced settings, you can enable multi-core support and specify the number of cores the emulator can use.
      • Under advanced settings, you can determine how graphics are rendered on the emulator by selecting one of the following options:
        • Hardware: use you computer's graphics card for faster rendering.
        • Software: use software-based rendering.
        • Auto: let the emulator decide the best option. این تنظیمات پیش فرض است.
    • Improved AAPT packaging times by specifying deploy target before the app is built. This allows Android Studio to efficiently package only the resources required by the specified device.
    • Added Cloud Test Lab integration to provide on-demand app testing with the convenience and scalability of a cloud service. Learn more about how you can use Cloud Test Lab with Android Studio .
    • Added a preview of the new GPU Debugger . For graphics intensive applications, you can now visually step through your OpenGL ES code to optimize your app or game.
    • Added Google App Indexing Test. Add support for URLs, app indexing, and search functionality to your apps to help drive more traffic to your app, discover which app content is used most, and attract new users. Test and validate URLs in your app all within Android Studio. See Supporting URLs and App Indexing in Android Studio .
    • Upgrades from the latest IntelliJ 15 release, including improved code analysis and performance. See What's New in IntelliJ for a complete description of the new features and enhancements.
    • XML editor auto-complete now adds quotations marks when completing attributes. To check if this option is enabled, open the Setting or Preferences dialogue, navigate to Editor > General > Smart Keys , and check the box next to Add quotes for attribute value on attribute completion . Issue: 195113
    • The XML editor now supports code completion for data binding expressions.

    Android Studio v1.5.1 (December 2015)

    Fixes and enhancements:

    • Fixed a rendering failure issue in the Layout Editor. Issue: 194612
    • Added the ability to vary description manifest attributes by configuration. Issue: 194705
    • Improved the contrast of the Android Studio Darcula appearance theme in Vector Asset Studio. Issue: 191819
    • Added Help button support to Vector Asset Studio.
    • Added support for the % operator for data binding. Issue: 194045
    • Fixed a case where launching an app for debugging resulted in the debugger connecting to the wrong device. Issue: 195167
    • Fixed a null pointer exception that could occur when attempting to run an app in certain scenarios.

    Android Studio v1.5.0 (November 2015)

    Fixes and enhancements:

    • Added new Memory Monitor analysis abilities to Android Monitor. When you view an HPROF file captured from this monitor, the display is now more helpful so you can more quickly locate problems, such as memory leaks. To use this monitor, click Android Monitor at the bottom of the main window. In Android Monitor, click the Memory tab. While the monitor is running, click the Dump Java Heap icon, and then click Captures in the main window and double-click the file to view it. Click Capture Analysis on the right. (The Android Device Monitor can't be running at the same time as Android Monitor.)
    • Added new deep link and app link support. The Code Editor can automatically create an intent filter for deep linking in the AndroidManifest.xml file. It can also generate code to help you integrate with the App Indexing API in an activity in a Java file. A deep link testing feature helps you verify that a specified deep link can launch an app. In the General tab of the Run/Debug Configurations dialog, you can specify deep link launch options. You can also test App Indexing API calls in an activity by using the Android Monitor logcat display. The Android lint tool now has warnings for certain issues involving deep links and the App Indexing API.
    • Added the ability to use short names when code-completing custom views in the Code Editor.

    • 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.
    • Android Gradle plug-in updated to 0.5.0.

      Caution: 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 Gradle <project_name> project refresh failed.

      The updated Gradle plug-in includes the following changes:

      • 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 variant.packageApplication or variant.zipAlign
      • Fixed dependency resolution so that we resolved the combination of (default config, build types, flavor(s)) together instead of separately.
      • Fixed dependency for tests of library project to properly include all the dependencies of the library itself.
      • Fixed case where two dependencies have the same leaf name.
      • Fixed issue where Proguard rules file cannot be applied on flavors.

      All Gradle plugin release notes are available are here: http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system .

    • Gradle errors from aapt no longer point to merged output files in the build/ folder, they point back to the real source locations.
    • Parallel Builds. It's now possible to use Gradle's parallel builds. Please be aware that parallel builds are in "incubation" (see Gradle's documentation .) This feature is off by default. To enable it, go to Preferences > Compiler and check the box Compile independent modules in parallel .
    • Further work on the new resource repository used for layout rendering, resource folding in the editor, and more:
      • Basic support for .aar library dependencies (eg using a library without a local copy of the sources). Still not working for resource XML validation and navigation in source editors.
      • Cycle detection in resource references.
      • 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.
      • Fixes to handle updating the merged resources when the set of module dependencies change.
      • XML rendering fixes to properly handle character entity declarations and XML and unicode escapes.
    • Save screenshot support for the layout preview and layout editor windows.
    • Template bug fixes.
    • Lint bug fixes.
    • Various fixes for crash reports. Thank you, and keep filing crash reports!

    Android Studio v0.1.x (May 2013)

    Older releases of Android Gradle Plugin

    3.6.0 (February 2020)

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    3.6.4 (July 2020)

    This minor update supports compatibility with new default settings and features for package visibility in Android 11 .

    See the 4.0.1 release notes for details.

    ویژگی های جدید

    This version of the Android Gradle plugin includes the following new features.

    View Binding

    View binding provides compile-time safety when referencing views in your code. You can now replace findViewById() with the auto-generated binding class reference. To start using View binding, include the following in each module's build.gradle file:

          android {
              viewBinding.enabled = true
          }
          
          android {
              viewBinding.enabled = true
          }
          

    To learn more, read the View Binding documentation .

    Support for the Maven Publish plugin

    The Android Gradle plugin includes support for the Maven Publish Gradle plugin , which allows you to publish build artifacts to an Apache Maven repository. The Android Gradle plugin creates a component for each build variant artifact in your app or library module that you can use to customize a publication to a Maven repository.

    To learn more, go to the page about how to use the Maven Publish plugin .

    New default packaging tool

    When building the debug version of your app, the plugin uses a new packaging tool, called zipflinger , to build your APK. This new tool should provide build speed improvements. If the new packaging tool doesn't work as you expect, please report a bug . You can revert to using the old packaging tool by including the following in your gradle.properties file:

            android.useNewApkCreator=false
          
    Native build attribution

    You can now determine the length of time it takes Clang to build and link each C/C++ file in your project. Gradle can output a Chrome trace that contains timestamps for these compiler events so you can better understand the time required to build your project. To output this build attribution file, do the following:

    1. Add the flag -Pandroid.enableProfileJson=true when running a Gradle build. به عنوان مثال:

      gradlew assembleDebug -Pandroid.enableProfileJson=true

    2. Open the Chrome browser and type chrome://tracing in the search bar.

    3. Click the Load button and navigate to <var>project-root</var>/build/android-profile to find the file. The file is named profile-<var>timestamp</var>.json.gz .

    You can see the native build attribution data near the top of the viewer:

    Native build attribution trace in Chrome

    تغییر رفتار

    When using this version of the plugin, you might encounter the following changes in behavior.

    Native libraries packaged uncompressed by default

    When you build your app, the plugin now sets extractNativeLibs to "false" by default. That is, your native libraries are page aligned and packaged uncompressed. While this results in a larger upload size, your users benefit from the following:

    • Smaller app install size because the platform can access the native libraries directly from the installed APK, without creating a copy of the libraries.
    • Smaller download size because Play Store compression is typically better when you include uncompressed native libraries in your APK or Android App Bundle.

    If you want the Android Gradle plugin to instead package compressed native libraries, include the following in your app's manifest:

            <application
              android:extractNativeLibs="true"
              ... >
            </application>
            
          

    Note: The extractNativeLibs manifest attribute has been replaced by the useLegacyPackaging DSL option. For more information, see the release note Use the DSL to package compressed native libraries .

    Default NDK version

    If you download multiple versions of the NDK, the Android Gradle plugin now selects a default version to use in compiling your source code files. Previously, the plugin selected the latest downloaded version of the NDK. Use the android.ndkVersion property in the module's build.gradle file to override the plugin-selected default.

    Simplified R class generation

    The Android Gradle plugin simplifies the compile classpath by generating only one R class for each library module in your project and sharing those R classes with other module dependencies. This optimization should result in faster builds, but it requires that you keep the following in mind:

    • Because the compiler shares R classes with upstream module dependencies, it's important that each module in your project uses a unique package name.
    • The visibility of a library's R class to other project dependencies is determined by the configuration used to include the library as a dependency. For example, if Library A includes Library B as an 'api' dependency, Library A and other libraries that depend on Library A have access to Library B's R class. However, other libraries might not have access to Library B's R class. If Library A uses the implementation dependency configuration. To learn more, read about dependency configurations .
    Remove resources missing from default configuration

    For Library modules, if you include a resource for a language that you do not include in the default set of resources—for example, if you include hello_world as a string resource in /values-es/strings.xml but you don't define that resource in /values/strings.xml —the Android Gradle plugin no longer includes that resource when compiling your project. This behavior change should result in fewer Resource Not Found runtime exceptions and improved build speed.

    D8 now respects CLASS retention policy for annotations

    When compiling your app, D8 now respects when annotations apply a CLASS retention policy, and those annotations are no longer available at runtime. This behavior also exists when setting the app's target SDK to API level 23, which previously allowed access to these annotations during runtime when compiling your app using older versions of the Android Gradle plugin and D8.

    Other behavior changes
    • aaptOptions.noCompress is no longer case sensitive on all platforms (for both APK and bundles) and respects paths that use uppercase characters.
    • Data binding is now incremental by default. To learn more, see issue #110061530 .

    • All unit tests, including Roboelectric unit tests, are now fully cacheable. To learn more, see issue #115873047 .

    رفع اشکال

    This version of the Android Gradle plugin includes the following bug fixes:

    • Robolectric unit tests are now supported in library modules that use data binding. To learn more, see issue #126775542 .
    • You can now run connectedAndroidTest tasks across multiple modules while Gradle's parallel execution mode is enabled.

    مسائل شناخته شده

    This section describes known issues that exist in Android Gradle plugin 3.6.0.

    Slow performance of Android Lint task

    Android Lint can take much longer to complete on some projects due to a regression in its parsing infrastructure, resulting in slower computation of inferred types for lambdas in certain code constructs.

    The issue is reported as a bug in IDEA and will be fixed in Android Gradle Plugin 4.0.

    Missing Manifest class {:#agp-missing-manifest}

    If your app defines custom permissions in its manifest, the Android Gradle plugin typically generates a Manifest.java class that includes your custom permissions as string constants. The plugin packages this class with your app, so you can more easily reference those permissions at runtime.

    Generating the manifest class is broken in Android Gradle plugin 3.6.0. If you build your app with this version of the plugin, and it references the manifest class, you might see a ClassNotFoundException exception. To resolve this issue, do one of the following:

    • Reference your custom permissions by their fully-qualified name. For example, "com.example.myapp.permission.DEADLY_ACTIVITY" .

    • Define your own constants, as shown below:

                  public final class CustomPermissions {
                    public static final class permission {
                      public static final String DEADLY_ACTIVITY="com.example.myapp.permission.DEADLY_ACTIVITY";
                    }
                  }
                  
                

    3.5.0 (August 2019)

    Android Gradle plugin 3.5.0, along with Android Studio 3.5 , is a major release and a result of Project Marble, which is a focus on improving three main areas of the Android developer tools: system health, feature polish, and fixing bugs. Notably, improving project build speed was a main focus for this update.

    For information about these and other Project Marble updates, read the Android Developers blog post or the sections below.

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    3.5.4 (July 2020)

    This minor update supports compatibility with new default settings and features for package visibility in Android 11 .

    See the 4.0.1 release notes for details.

    3.5.3 (December 2019)

    This minor update supports Android Studio 3.5.3 and includes various bug fixes and performance improvements.

    This minor update supports Android Studio 3.5.1 and includes various bug fixes and performance improvements. To see a list of noteable bug fixes, read the related post on the Release Updates blog .

    Incremental annotation processing

    The Data Binding annotation processor supports incremental annotation processing if you set android.databinding.incremental=true in your gradle.properties file. This optimization results in improved incremental build performance. For a full list of optimized annotation processors, refer to the table of incremental annotation processors .

    Additionally, KAPT 1.3.30 and higher also support incremental annotation processors, which you can enable by including kapt.incremental.apt=true in your gradle.properties file.

    Cacheable unit tests

    When you enable unit tests to use Android resources, assets, and manifests by setting includeAndroidResources to true , the Android Gradle plugin generates a test config file containing absolute paths, which breaks cache relocatability. You can instruct the plugin to instead generate the test config using relative paths, which allows the AndroidUnitTest task to be fully cacheable, by including the following in your gradle.properties file:

          android.testConfig.useRelativePath = true
        

    مسائل شناخته شده

    • When using Kotlin Gradle plugin 1.3.31 or earlier, you might see the following warning when building or syncing your project:

                WARNING: API 'variant.getPackageLibrary()' is obsolete and has been replaced
                        with 'variant.getPackageLibraryProvider()'.

    ویژگی های جدید

    • New lint check dependency configurations: The behavior of lintChecks has changed and a new dependency configuration, lintPublish , has been introduced to give you more control over which lint checks are packaged in your Android libraries.

      • lintChecks : This is an existing configuration that you should use for lint checks you want to only run when building your project locally. If you were previously using the lintChecks dependency configuration to include lint checks in the published AAR, you need to migrate those dependencies to instead use the new lintPublish configuration described below.
      • lintPublish : Use this new configuration in library projects for lint checks you want to include in the published AAR, as shown below. This means that projects that consume your library also apply those lint checks.

      The following code sample uses both dependency configurations in a local Android library project.

      dependencies {
        // Executes lint checks from the ':lint' project at build time.
        lintChecks project(':lint')
        // Packages lint checks from the ':lintpublish' in the published AAR.
        lintPublish project(':lintpublish')
      }
              
      dependencies {
        // Executes lint checks from the ':lint' project at build time.
        lintChecks(project(":lint"))
        // Packages lint checks from the ':lintpublish' in the published AAR.
        lintPublish(project(":lintpublish"))
          }

    • Android Instant Apps Feature plugin deprecation warning: If you're still using the com.android.feature plugin to build your instant app, Android Gradle plugin 3.4.0 will give throw you a deprecation warning. To make sure you can still build you instant app on future versions of the plugin, migrate your instant app to using the dynamic feature plugin , which also allows you to publish both your installed and instant app experiences from a single Android App Bundle.

    • R8 enabled by default: R8 integrates desugaring, shrinking, obfuscating, optimizing, and dexing all in one step—resulting in noticeable build performance improvements . R8 was introduced in Android Gradle plugin 3.3.0 and is now enabled by default for both app and Android library projects using plugin 3.4.0 and higher.

    The image below provides a high-level overview of the compile process before R8 was introduced.

    Before R8, ProGuard was a different compile step from dexing and
              desugaring.

    Now, with R8, desugaring, shrinking, obfuscating, optimizing, and dexing (D8) are all completed in one step, as illustrated below.

    With R8, desugaring, shrinking, obfuscating, optimizing, and
      dexing are all performed in a single compile step.

    Keep in mind, R8 is designed to work with your existing ProGuard rules, so you'll likely not need to take any actions to benefit from R8. However, because it's a different technology to ProGuard that's designed specifically for Android projects, shrinking and optimization may result in removing code that ProGuard may have not. So, in this unlikely situation, you might need to add additional rules to keep that code in your build output.

    If you experience issues using R8, read the R8 compatibility FAQ to check if there's a solution to your issue. If a solution isn't documented, please report a bug . You can disable R8 by adding one of the following lines to your project's gradle.properties file:

          # Disables R8 for Android Library modules only.
          android.enableR8.libraries = false
          # Disables R8 for all modules.
          android.enableR8 = false
          
        

    Note: For a given build type, if you set useProguard to false in your app module's build.gradle file, the Android Gradle plugin uses R8 to shrink your app's code for that build type, regardless of whether you disable R8 in your project's gradle.properties فایل gradle.properties

    • ndkCompile is deprecated: You now get a build error if you try to use ndkBuild to compile your native libraries. You should instead use either CMake or ndk-build to Add C and C++ code to your project .

      For example, if the runtime classpath includes Library A version 2.0 and the compile classpath includes Library A version 1.0, the plugin automatically updates the dependency on the compile classpath to Library A version 2.0 to avoid errors.

      However, if the runtime classpath includes Library A version 1.0 and the compile includes Library A version 2.0, the plugin does not downgrade the dependency on the compile classpath to Library A version 1.0, and you will get an error. To learn more, see Fix conflicts between classpaths .

    • Improved incremental Java compilation when using annotation processors: This update decreases build time by improving support for incremental Java compilation when using annotation processors.

      Note: This feature is compatible with Gradle 4.10.1 and higher, except Gradle 5.1 due to Gradle issue 8194 .

      • For projects using Kapt (most Kotlin-only projects and Kotlin-Java hybrid projects): Incremental Java compilation is enabled, even when you use data binding or the retro-lambda plugin. Annotation processing by the Kapt task is not yet incremental.

      • For projects not using Kapt (Java-only projects): If the annotation processors you use all support incremental annotation processing , incremental Java compilation is enabled by default. To monitor incremental annotation processor adoption, watch Gradle issue 5277 .

        If, however, one or more annotation processors do not support incremental builds, incremental Java compilation is not enabled. Instead, you can include the following flag in your gradle.properties file:

        android.enableSeparateAnnotationProcessing=true
                    

        When you include this flag, the Android Gradle plugin executes the annotation processors in a separate task and allows the Java compilation task to run incrementally.

    • Better debug info when using obsolete API: When the plugin detects that you're using an API that's no longer supported, it can now provide more-detailed information to help you determine where that API is being used. To see the additional info, you need to include the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

                android.debug.obsoleteApi=true
              

      You can also enable the flag by passing -Pandroid.debug.obsoleteApi=true from the command line.

    • You can run instrumentation tests on feature modules from the command line.

    تغییر رفتار

    • Lazy task configuration: The plugin now uses Gradle's new task creation API to avoid initializing and configuring tasks that are not required to complete the current build (or tasks not on the execution task graph). For example, if you have multiple build variants, such as “release” and “debug” build variants, and you're building the “debug” version of your app, the plugin avoids initializing and configuring tasks for the “release” version of برنامه شما

      Calling certain older methods in the Variants API, such as variant.getJavaCompile() , might still force task configuration. To make sure that your build is optimized for lazy task configuration, invoke new methods that instead return a TaskProvider object, such as variant.getJavaCompileProvider() .

      If you execute custom build tasks, learn how to adapt to Gradle's new task-creation API .

    • For a given build type, when setting useProguard false , the plugin now uses R8 instead of ProGuard to shrink and obfuscate your app's code and resources. To learn more about R8, read this blog post from the Android Developer's Blog.

    • Faster R class generation for library projects: Previously, the Android Gradle plugin would generate an R.java file for each of your project's dependencies and then compile those R classes alongside your app's other classes. The plugin now generates a JAR containing your app's compiled R class directly, without first building intermediate R.java classes. This optimization may significantly improve build performance for projects that include many library subprojects and dependencies, and improve the indexing speed in Android Studio.

    • When building an Android App Bundle , APKs generated from that app bundle that target Android 6.0 (API level 23) or higher now include uncompressed versions of your native libraries by default. This optimization avoids the need for the device to make a copy of the library and thus reduces the on-disk size of your app. If you'd rather disable this optimization, add the following to your gradle.properties file:

      android.bundle.enableUncompressedNativeLibs = false
              
    • The plugin enforces minimum versions of some third-party plugins.

    • Single-variant project sync : Syncing your project with your build configuration is an important step in letting Android Studio understand how your project is structured. However, this process can be time-consuming for large projects. If your project uses multiple build variants, you can now optimize project syncs by limiting them to only the variant you have currently selected.

      You need to use Android Studio 3.3 or higher with Android Gradle Plugin 3.3.0 or higher to enable this optimization. When you meet these requirements, the IDE prompts you to enable this optimization when you sync your project. The optimization is also enabled by default on new projects.

      To enable this optimization manually, click File > Settings > Experimental > Gradle ( Android Studio > Preferences > Experimental > Gradle on a Mac) and select the Only sync the active variant checkbox.

      Note : This optimization fully supports projects that include Java and C++ languages, and has some support for Kotlin. When enabling the optimization for projects with Kotlin content, Gradle sync falls back to using full variants internally.

    • Automatic downloading of missing SDK packages : This functionality has been expanded to support NDK. To learn more, read Auto-download missing packages with Gradle .

    • Android Gradle plugin 3.3.0 fixes the following issues:

      • The build process calling android.support.v8.renderscript.RenderScript instead of the AndroidX version, despite Jetifier being enabled
      • Clashes due to androidx-rs.jar including statically bundled annotation.AnyRes
      • When using RenderScript, you no longer have to manually set the Build Tools version in your build.gradle files

    3.2.0 (September 2018)

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    3.2.1 (October 2018)

    With this update, you no longer need to specify a version for the SDK Build Tools. The Android Gradle plugin now uses version 28.0.3 by default.

    ویژگی های جدید

    • Support for building Android App Bundles: The app bundle is a new upload format that includes all your app's compiled code and resources while deferring APK generation and signing to the Google Play Store. You no longer have to build, sign, and manage multiple APKs, and users get smaller downloads that are optimized for their device. To learn more, read About Android App Bundles .

    • Support for improved incremental build speeds when using annotation processors: The AnnotationProcessorOptions DSL now extends CommandLineArgumentProvider , which enables either you or the annotation processor author to annotate arguments for the processor using incremental build property type annotations . Using these annotations improves the correctness and performance of incremental and cached clean builds. To learn more, read Pass arguments to annotation processors .

    • Migration tool for AndroidX: When using Android Gradle plugin 3.2.0 with Android 3.2 and higher, you can migrate your project's local and Maven dependencies to use the new AndroidX libraries by selecting Refactor > Migrate to AndroidX from the menu bar. Using this migration tool also sets the following flags to true in your gradle.properties file:

      • android.useAndroidX : When set to true , the Android plugin uses the appropriate AndroidX library instead of a Support Library. When this flag is not specified, the plugin sets it to false by default.

      • android.enableJetifier : When set to true , the Android plugin automatically migrates existing third-party libraries to use AndroidX by rewriting their binaries. When this flag is not specified, the plugin sets it to false by default. You can set this flag to true only while android.useAndroidX is also set to true , otherwise you get a build error.

        To learn more, read the AndroidX overview .

    • New code shrinker, R8: R8 is a new tool for code shrinking and obfuscation that replaces ProGuard. You can start using the preview version of R8 by including the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

              android.enableR8 = true
              
              android.enableR8 = true

    • Desugaring with D8 is now enabled by default.

    • AAPT2 is now on Google's Maven repo. To use AAPT2, make sure that you have the google() dependency in your build.gradle file, as shown below:

                buildscript {
                      repositories {
                          google() // here
                          jcenter()
                      }
                      dependencies {
                          classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0'
                      }
                  }
                  allprojects {
                      repositories {

                          jcenter()
                  }
                
                buildscript {
                      repositories {
                          google() // here
                          jcenter()
                      }
                      dependencies {
                          classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0'
                      }
                  }
                  allprojects {
                      repositories {

                          jcenter()
                  }
                
    • Native multidex is now enabled by default. Previous versions of Android Studio enabled native multidex when deploying the debug version of an app to a device running Android API level 21 or higher. Now, whether you're deploying to a device or building an APK for release, the Android Gradle plugin enables native multidex for all modules that set minSdkVersion=21 or higher.

    • The plugin now enforces a minimum version of the protobuf plugin (0.8.6), Kotlin plugin (1.2.50), and Crashlytics plugin (1.25.4).

    • The feature module plugin, com.android.feature , now enforces the use of only letters, digits, and underscores when specifying a module name. For example, if your feature module name includes dashes, you get a build error. This behavior matches that of the dynamic feature plugin.

    3.1.0 (March 2018)

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    • Gradle 4.4 or higher.

      To learn more, read the section about updating Gradle .

    • Build Tools 27.0.3 or higher.

      Keep in mind, you no longer need to specify a version for the build tools using the android.buildToolsVersion property—the plugin uses the minimum required version by default.

    New DEX compiler, D8

    By default, Android Studio now uses a new DEX compiler called D8. DEX compilation is the process of transforming .class bytecode into .dex bytecode for the Android Runtime (or Dalvik, for older versions of Android). Compared to the previous compiler, called DX, D8 compiles faster and outputs smaller DEX files, all while having the same or better app runtime performance.

    D8 shouldn't change your day-to-day app development workflow. However, if you experience any issues related to the new compiler, please report a bug . You can temporarily disable D8 and use DX by including the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

          android.enableD8=false
        

    For projects that use Java 8 language features , incremental desugaring is enabled by default. You can disable it by specifying the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

          android.enableIncrementalDesugaring=false.
        

    Preview users: If you're already using a preview version of D8, note that it now compiles against libraries included in the SDK build tools —not the JDK. So, if you are accessing APIs that exist in the JDK but not in the SDK build tools libraries, you get a compile error.

    تغییر رفتار

    • When building multiple APKs that each target a different ABI, the no longer generates APKs for the following ABIs by default: mips , mips64 , and armeabi .

      If you want to build APKs that target these ABIs, you must use NDK r16b or lower and specify the ABIs in your build.gradle file, as shown below:

                splits {
                    abi {
                        include 'armeabi', 'mips', 'mips64'
                        ...
                    }
                }
              
                splits {
                    abi {
                        include("armeabi", "mips", "mips64")
                        ...
                    }
                }
              
    • The Android plugin's build cache now evicts cache entries that are older than 30 days.

    • Passing "auto" to resConfig no longer automatically picks string resources to package into your APK. If you continue to use "auto" , the plugin packages all string resources your app and its dependencies provide. So, you should instead specify each locale that you want the plugin to package into your APK.

    • Because local modules can't depend on your app's test APK, adding dependencies to your instrumented tests using the androidTestApi configuration, instead of androidTestImplementation , causes Gradle to issue the following warning:

              WARNING: Configuration 'androidTestApi' is obsolete
              and has been replaced with 'androidTestImplementation'
              
              WARNING: Configuration 'androidTestApi' is obsolete

    • Fixes an issue where Android Studio doesn't properly recognize dependencies in composite builds.
    • Fixes an issue where you get a project sync error when loading the Android plugin multiple times in a single build–for example, when multiple subprojects each include the Android plugin in their buildscript classpath.

    3.0.0 (October 2017)

    Android Gradle plugin 3.0.0 includes a variety of changes that aim to address performance issues of large projects.

    For example, on a sample skeleton project with ~130 modules and a large number of external dependencies (but no code or resources), you can experience performance improvements similar to the following:

    Android plugin version + Gradle version Android plugin 2.2.0 + Gradle 2.14.1 Android plugin 2.3.0 + Gradle 3.3 Android plugin 3.0.0 + Gradle 4.1
    Configuration (eg running ./gradlew --help ) ~2 mins ~9 s ~2.5 s
    1-line Java change (implementation change) ~2 mins 15 s ~29 s ~6.4 s

    Some of these changes break existing builds. So, you should consider the\ effort of migrating your project before using the new plugin.

    If you don't experience the performance improvements described above, please file a bug and include a trace of your build using the Gradle Profiler .

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    • Gradle 4.1 or higher. To learn more, read the section about updating Gradle .
    • Build Tools 26.0.2 or higher. With this update, you no longer need to specify a version for the build tools—the plugin uses the minimum required version by default. So, you can now remove the android.buildToolsVersion property.

    3.0.1 (November 2017)

    This is a minor update to support Android Studio 3.0.1, and includes general bug fixes and performance improvements.

    بهینه سازی ها

    • Better parallelism for multi-module projects through a fine grained task graph.
    • When making changes to dependency, Gradle performs faster builds by not re-compiling modules that do not have access to that dependency's API. You should restrict which dependencies leak their APIs to other modules by using Gradle's new dependency configurations : implementation , api , compileOnly , and runtimeOnly .
    • Faster incremental build speed due to per-class dexing. Each class is now compiled into separate DEX files, and only the classes that are modified are re-dexed. You should also expect improved build speeds for apps that set minSdkVersion to 20 or lower, and use legacy multi-dex .
    • Improved build speeds by optimizing certain tasks to use chached outputs. To benefit from this optimization, you need to first enable the Gradle build cache .
    • Improved incremental resource processing using AAPT2, which is now enabled by default. If you are experiencing issues while using AAPT2, please report a bug . You can also disable AAPT2 by setting android.enableAapt2=false in your gradle.properties file and restarting the Gradle daemon by running ./gradlew --stop from the command line.

    • Variant-aware dependency management . When building a certain variant of a module, the plugin now automatically matches variants of local library module dependencies to the variant of the module you are building.
    • Includes a new Feature module plugin to support Android Instant Apps and the Android Instant Apps SDK (which you can download using the SDK manager ). To learn more about creating Feature modules with the new plugin, read Structure of an instant app with multiple features .
    • Built-in support for using certain Java 8 language features and Java 8 libraries. Jack is now deprecated and no longer required , and you should first disable Jack to use the improved Java 8 support built into the default toolchain. For more information, read Use Java 8 language features .
    • Added support for running tests with Android Test Orchestrator , which allows you to run each of your app's tests within its own invocation of Instrumentation. Because each test runs in its own Instrumentation instance, any shared state between tests doesn't accumulate on your device's CPU or memory. And, even if one test crashes, it takes down only its own instance of Instrumentation, so your other tests still run.

      • Added testOptions.execution to determine whether to use on-device test orchestration. If you want to use Android Test Orchestrator , you need to specify ANDROID_TEST_ORCHESTRATOR , as shown below. By default, this property is set to HOST , which disables on-device orchestration and is the standard method of running tests.

                ...
              }
              
    • Added testOptions.unitTests.includeAndroidResources to support unit tests that require Android resources, such as Roboelectric . When you set this property to true , the plugin performs resource, asset, and manifest merging before running your unit tests. Your tests can then inspect com/android/tools/test_config.properties on the classpath for the following keys:

      • android_merged_assets : the absolute path to the merged assets directory.

        Note: For library modules, the merged assets do not contain the assets of dependencies (see issue #65550419 ).

      • android_merged_manifest : the absolute path to the merged manifest file.

      • android_merged_resources : the absolute path to the merged resources directory, which contains all the resources from the module and all its dependencies.

      • android_custom_package : the package name of the final R class. If you dynamically modify the application ID, this package name may not match the package attribute in the app's manifest.

    • Support for fonts as resources (which is a new feature introduced in Android 8.0 (API level 26) ).
    • Support for language-specific APKs with Android Instant Apps SDK 1.1 and higher.
    • You can now change the output directory for your external native build project, as shown below:

    • You can now use CMake 3.7 or higher when building native projects from Android Studio.
    • New lintChecks dependency configuration allows you to build a JAR that defines custom lint rules, and package it into your AAR and APK projects.

      Your custom lint rules must belong to a separate project that outputs a single JAR and includes only compileOnly dependencies. Other app and library modules can then depend on your lint project using the lintChecks configuration:

      شیار

              dependencies {

                  // other projects that depend on it automatically use the lint checks.
                  // If the module is an app, lint includes these rules when analyzing the app.
                  lintChecks project(':lint-checks')
              }

    • Android plugin 3.0.0 removes certain APIs, and your build will break if you use them. For example, you can no longer use the Variants API to access outputFile() objects or use processManifest.manifestOutputFile() to get the manifest file for each variant. To learn more, read API changes .
    • You no longer need to specify a version for the build tools (so, you can now remove the android.buildToolsVersion property). By default, the plugin automatically uses the minimum required build tools version for the version of Android plugin you're using.
    • You now enable/disable PNG crunching in the buildTypes block, as shown below. PNG crunching is enabled by default for all builds except debug builds because it increases build times for projects that include many PNG files. So, to improve build times for other build types, you should either disable PNG crunching or convert your images to WebP .

                  // Disables PNG crunching for the release build type.
                  isCrunchPngs = false

              }
            }
            
    • The Android plugin now automatically builds executable targets that you configure in your external CMake projects.
    • You must now add annotation processors to the processor classpath using the annotationProcessor dependency configuration.
    • Using the deprecated ndkCompile is now more restricted. You should instead migrate to using either CMake or ndk-build to compile native code that you want to package into your APK. To learn more, read Migrate from ndkcompile .

    3.0.0 (October 2017)

    Android Gradle plugin 3.0.0 includes a variety of changes that aim to address performance issues of large projects.

    For example, on a sample skeleton project with ~130 modules and a large number of external dependencies (but no code or resources), you can experience performance improvements similar to the following:

    Android plugin version + Gradle version Android plugin 2.2.0 + Gradle 2.14.1 Android plugin 2.3.0 + Gradle 3.3 Android plugin 3.0.0 + Gradle 4.1
    Configuration (eg running ./gradlew --help ) ~2 mins ~9 s ~2.5 s
    1-line Java change (implementation change) ~2 mins 15 s ~29 s ~6.4 s

    Some of these changes break existing builds. So, you should consider the\ effort of migrating your project before using the new plugin.

    If you don't experience the performance improvements described above, please file a bug and include a trace of your build using the Gradle Profiler .

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    • Gradle 4.1 or higher. To learn more, read the section about updating Gradle .
    • Build Tools 26.0.2 or higher. With this update, you no longer need to specify a version for the build tools—the plugin uses the minimum required version by default. So, you can now remove the android.buildToolsVersion property.

    3.0.1 (November 2017)

    This is a minor update to support Android Studio 3.0.1, and includes general bug fixes and performance improvements.

    بهینه سازی ها

    • Better parallelism for multi-module projects through a fine grained task graph.
    • When making changes to dependency, Gradle performs faster builds by not re-compiling modules that do not have access to that dependency's API. You should restrict which dependencies leak their APIs to other modules by using Gradle's new dependency configurations : implementation , api , compileOnly , and runtimeOnly .
    • Faster incremental build speed due to per-class dexing. Each class is now compiled into separate DEX files, and only the classes that are modified are re-dexed. You should also expect improved build speeds for apps that set minSdkVersion to 20 or lower, and use legacy multi-dex .
    • Improved build speeds by optimizing certain tasks to use chached outputs. To benefit from this optimization, you need to first enable the Gradle build cache .
    • Improved incremental resource processing using AAPT2, which is now enabled by default. If you are experiencing issues while using AAPT2, please report a bug . You can also disable AAPT2 by setting android.enableAapt2=false in your gradle.properties file and restarting the Gradle daemon by running ./gradlew --stop from the command line.

    ویژگی های جدید

    • Variant-aware dependency management . When building a certain variant of a module, the plugin now automatically matches variants of local library module dependencies to the variant of the module you are building.
    • Includes a new Feature module plugin to support Android Instant Apps and the Android Instant Apps SDK (which you can download using the SDK manager ). To learn more about creating Feature modules with the new plugin, read Structure of an instant app with multiple features .
    • Built-in support for using certain Java 8 language features and Java 8 libraries. Jack is now deprecated and no longer required , and you should first disable Jack to use the improved Java 8 support built into the default toolchain. For more information, read Use Java 8 language features .
    • Added support for running tests with Android Test Orchestrator , which allows you to run each of your app's tests within its own invocation of Instrumentation. Because each test runs in its own Instrumentation instance, any shared state between tests doesn't accumulate on your device's CPU or memory. And, even if one test crashes, it takes down only its own instance of Instrumentation, so your other tests still run.

      • Added testOptions.execution to determine whether to use on-device test orchestration. If you want to use Android Test Orchestrator , you need to specify ANDROID_TEST_ORCHESTRATOR , as shown below. By default, this property is set to HOST , which disables on-device orchestration and is the standard method of running tests.

      شیار

              android {
                testOptions {
                  execution 'ANDROID_TEST_ORCHESTRATOR'
                }
              }
              

      کاتلین

              android {
                testOptions {
                  execution = "ANDROID_TEST_ORCHESTRATOR"
                }
              }
              
    • New androidTestUtil dependency configuration allows you to install another test helper APK before running your instrumentation tests, such as Android Test Orchestrator:

      شیار

              dependencies {
                androidTestUtil 'com.android.support.test:orchestrator:1.0.0'
                ...
              }
              

      کاتلین

              dependencies {
                androidTestUtil("com.android.support.test:orchestrator:1.0.0")
                ...
              }
              
    • Added testOptions.unitTests.includeAndroidResources to support unit tests that require Android resources, such as Roboelectric . When you set this property to true , the plugin performs resource, asset, and manifest merging before running your unit tests. Your tests can then inspect com/android/tools/test_config.properties on the classpath for the following keys:

      • android_merged_assets : the absolute path to the merged assets directory.

        Note: For library modules, the merged assets do not contain the assets of dependencies (see issue #65550419 ).

      • android_merged_manifest : the absolute path to the merged manifest file.

      • android_merged_resources : the absolute path to the merged resources directory, which contains all the resources from the module and all its dependencies.

      • android_custom_package : the package name of the final R class. If you dynamically modify the application ID, this package name may not match the package attribute in the app's manifest.

    • Support for fonts as resources (which is a new feature introduced in Android 8.0 (API level 26) ).
    • Support for language-specific APKs with Android Instant Apps SDK 1.1 and higher.
    • You can now change the output directory for your external native build project, as shown below:

      شیار

              android {
                  ...
                  externalNativeBuild {
                      // For ndk-build, instead use the ndkBuild block.
                      cmake {
                          ...
                          // Specifies a relative path for outputs from external native
                          // builds. You can specify any path that's not a subdirectory
                          // of your project's temporary build/ directory.
                          buildStagingDirectory "./outputs/cmake"
                      }
                  }
              }
              

      کاتلین

              android {

                      // For ndk-build, instead use the ndkBuild block.
                      cmake {
                          ...
                          // Specifies a relative path for outputs from external native
                          // builds. You can specify any path that's not a subdirectory
                          // of your project's temporary build/ directory.
                          buildStagingDirectory = "./outputs/cmake"
                      }
                  }
              }
              
    • You can now use CMake 3.7 or higher when building native projects from Android Studio.
    • New lintChecks dependency configuration allows you to build a JAR that defines custom lint rules, and package it into your AAR and APK projects.

      Your custom lint rules must belong to a separate project that outputs a single JAR and includes only compileOnly dependencies. Other app and library modules can then depend on your lint project using the lintChecks configuration:

      شیار

              dependencies {
                  // This tells the Gradle plugin to build ':lint-checks' into a lint.jar file
                  // and package it with your module. If the module is an Android library,
                  // other projects that depend on it automatically use the lint checks.
                  // If the module is an app, lint includes these rules when analyzing the app.
                  lintChecks project(':lint-checks')
              }
              

      کاتلین

              dependencies {
                  // This tells the Gradle plugin to build ':lint-checks' into a lint.jar file
                  // and package it with your module. If the module is an Android library,
                  // other projects that depend on it automatically use the lint checks.
                  // If the module is an app, lint includes these rules when analyzing the app.
                  lintChecks(project(":lint-checks"))
              }
              

    تغییر رفتار

    • Android plugin 3.0.0 removes certain APIs, and your build will break if you use them. For example, you can no longer use the Variants API to access outputFile() objects or use processManifest.manifestOutputFile() to get the manifest file for each variant. To learn more, read API changes .
    • You no longer need to specify a version for the build tools (so, you can now remove the android.buildToolsVersion property). By default, the plugin automatically uses the minimum required build tools version for the version of Android plugin you're using.
    • You now enable/disable PNG crunching in the buildTypes block, as shown below. PNG crunching is enabled by default for all builds except debug builds because it increases build times for projects that include many PNG files. So, to improve build times for other build types, you should either disable PNG crunching or convert your images to WebP .

      شیار

    2.3.0 (February 2017)

    2.3.3 (June 2017)

    This is a minor update that adds compatibility with Android Studio 2.3.3 .

    2.3.2 (May 2017)

    This is a minor update that adds compatibility with Android Studio 2.3.2 .

    2.3.1 (April 2017)

    This is a minor update to Android plugin 2.3.0 that fixes an issue where some physical Android devices did not work properly with Instant Run (see Issue #235879 ).

    وابستگی ها:
    جدید:
    • Uses Gradle 3.3, which includes performance improvements and new features. For more details, see the Gradle release notes .
    • Build cache : stores certain outputs that the Android plugin generates when building your project (such as unpackaged AARs and pre-dexed remote dependencies). Your clean builds are much faster while using the cache because the build system can simply reuse those cached files during subsequent builds, instead of recreating them. Projects using Android plugin 2.3.0 and higher use the build cache by default. To learn more, read Improve Build Speed with Build Cache .
      • Includes a cleanBuildCache task that clears the build cache .
      • If you are using the experimental version of build cache (included in earlier versions of the plugin), you should update your plugin to the latest version.
    تغییرات:

    2.2.0 (September 2016)

    وابستگی ها:
    جدید:
    • Uses Gradle 2.14.1, which includes performance improvements and new features, and fixes a security vulnerability that allows local privilege escalation when using the Gradle daemon. For more details, see the Gradle release notes .
    • Using the externalNativeBuild {} DSL, Gradle now lets you link to your native sources and compile native libraries using CMake or ndk-build. After building your native libraries, Gradle packages them into your APK. To learn more about using CMake and ndk-build with Gradle, read Add C and C++ Code to Your Project .
    • When you run a build from the command line , Gradle now attempts to auto-download any missing SDK components or updates that your project depends on. To learn more, read Auto-download missing packages with Gradle .
    • A new experimental caching feature lets Gradle speed up build times by pre-dexing, storing, and reusing the pre-dexed versions of your libraries. To learn more about using this experimental feature, read the Build Cache guide.
    • Improves build performance by adopting a new default packaging pipeline which handles zipping, signing, and zipaligning in one task. You can revert to using the older packaging tools by adding android.useOldPackaging=true to your gradle.properties file. While using the new packaging tool, the zipalignDebug task is not available. However, you can create one yourself by calling the createZipAlignTask(String taskName, File inputFile, File outputFile) method.
    • APK signing now uses APK Signature Scheme v2 in addition to traditional JAR signing. All Android platforms accept the resulting APKs. Any modification to these APKs after signing invalidates their v2 signatures and prevents installation on a device. To disable this feature, add the following to your module-level build.gradle file:

      شیار

      android {
        ...
        signingConfigs {
          config {
            ...
            v2SigningEnabled false
          }
        }
      }
            

      کاتلین

      android {
        ...
        signingConfigs {
          create("config") {
            ...
            v2SigningEnabled = false
          }
        }
      }
            
    • For multidex builds, you can now use ProGuard rules to determine which classes Gradle should compile into your app's main DEX file. Because the Android system loads the main DEX file first when starting your app, you can prioritize certain classes at startup by compiling them into the main DEX file. After you create a ProGuard configuration file specifically for your main DEX file, pass the configuration file's path to Gradle using buildTypes.multiDexKeepProguard . Using this DSL is different from using buildTypes.proguardFiles , which provides general ProGuard rules for your app and does not specify classes for the main DEX file.
    • Adds support for the android:extractNativeLibs flag, which can reduce the size of your app when you install it on a device. When you set this flag to false in the <application> element of your app manifest, Gradle packages uncompressed and aligned versions of your native libraries with your APK. This prevents PackageManager from copying out your native libraries from the APK to the device's file system during installation and has the added benefit of making delta updates of your app smaller.
    • You can now specify versionNameSuffix and applicationIdSuffix for product flavors. ( Issue 59614 )
    تغییرات:
    • getDefaultProguardFile now returns the default ProGuard files that Android plugin for Gradle provides and no longer uses the ones in the Android SDK.
    • Improved Jack compiler performance and features:
      • Jack now supports Jacoco test coverage when setting testCoverageEnabled to true .
      • Improved support for annotation processors. Annotation processors on your classpath, such as any compile dependencies, are automatically applied to your build. You can also specify an annotation processor in your build and pass arguments by using the javaCompileOptions.annotationProcessorOptions {} DSL in your module-level build.gradle file:

        شیار

        android {
          ...
          defaultConfig {
            ...
            javaCompileOptions {
              annotationProcessorOptions {
                className 'com.example.MyProcessor'
                // Arguments are optional.
                arguments = [ foo : 'bar' ]
              }
            }
          }
        }
            

        کاتلین

        android {
          ...
          defaultConfig {
            ...
            javaCompileOptions {
              annotationProcessorOptions {
                className = "com.example.MyProcessor"
                // Arguments are optional.
                arguments(mapOf(foo to "bar"))
              }
            }
          }
        }
            

        If you want to apply an annotation processor at compile time but not include it in your APK, use the annotationProcessor dependency scope:

        شیار

        dependencies {
            compile 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.0'
            annotationProcessor 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.0'
           // or use buildVariantAnnotationProcessor to target a specific build variant
        }
            

        کاتلین

        dependencies {
            implementation("com.google.dagger:dagger:2.0")
            annotationProcessor("com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.0")
           // or use buildVariantAnnotationProcessor to target a specific build variant
        }
            
      • For a list of parameters you can set, run the following from the command line:

        java -jar /build-tools/jack.jar --help-properties
        
      • By default, if the Gradle daemon's heap size is at least 1.5 GB, Jack now runs in the same process as Gradle. To adjust the daemon heap size, add the following to your gradle.properties file:
        # This sets the daemon heap size to 1.5GB.
        org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1536M
        

    2.1.0 (April 2016)

    2.1.3 (August 2016)

    This update requires Gradle 2.14.1 and higher. Gradle 2.14.1 includes performance improvements, new features, and an important security fix . For more details, see the Gradle release notes .

    • Added support for the N Developer Preview, JDK 8, and Java 8 language features using the Jack toolchain. To find out more, read the N Preview guide .

      Note: Instant Run does not currently work with Jack and will be disabled while using the new toolchain. You only need to use Jack if you are developing for the N Preview and want to use the supported Java 8 language features.

    • Added default support for incremental Java compilation to reduce compilation time during development. It does this by only recompiling portions of the source that have changed or need to be recompiled. To disable this feature, add the following code to your module-level build.gradle file:

      شیار

      android {
        ...
        compileOptions {
          incremental false
        }
      }

      android {
        ...
        compileOptions {
          incremental = false
        }
      }
      
    • Added support for dexing-in-process which performs dexing within the build process rather than in a separate, external VM processes. This not only makes incremental builds faster, but also speeds up full builds. The feature is enabled by default for projects that have set the Gradle daemon's maximum heap size to at least 2048 MB. You can do this by including the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

      ```none org.gradle.jvmargs = -Xmx2048m ```

      If you have defined a value for javaMaxHeapSize in your module-level build.gradle file, you need to set org.gradle.jvmargs to the value of javaMaxHeapSize + 1024 MB. For example, if you have set javaMaxHeapSize to "2048m", you need to add the following to your project's gradle.properties file:

      ```none org.gradle.jvmargs = -Xmx3072m ```

      To disable dexing-in-process, add the following code to your module-level build.gradle file:

      شیار

      android {
        ...
        dexOptions {
            dexInProcess false
        }
      }
      

      کاتلین

      android {
        ...
        dexOptions {
            dexInProcess = false
        }
      }

    • Enables Instant Run by supporting bytecode injection, and pushing code and resource updates to a running app on the emulator or a physical device.
    • Added support for incremental builds, even when the app isn't running. Full build times are improved by pushing incremental changes through the Android Debug Bridge to the connected device.
    • Added maxProcessCount to control how many worker dex processes can be spawned concurrently. The following code, in the module-level build.gradle file, sets the maximum number of concurrent processes to 4:

      شیار

      android {
        ...

      }
      
        </li>
      
        <li>Added an experimental code shrinker to support pre-dexing and reduce re-dexing
        of dependencies, which are not supported with Proguard. This improves the build
        speed of your debug build variant. Because the experimental shrinker does not
        support optimization and obfuscation, you should enable Proguard for your
        release builds. To enable the experimental shrinker for your debug builds, add
        the following to your module-level <code>build.gradle</code> file:
      

      شیار

      android {
        ...
        buildTypes {
          debug {
            minifyEnabled true
            useProguard false
          }
          release {
            minifyEnabled true
            useProguard true // this is a default setting

    Android plugin for Gradle, revision 1.5.0 (November 2015)

    وابستگی ها:
    • Gradle 2.2.1 or higher.
    • Build Tools 21.1.1 or higher.
    نکات کلی:
    • Integrated the Data Binding plugin into the Android plugin for Gradle. To enable it, add the following code to each per-project build.gradle file that uses the plugin:
    • android {
          dataBinding {
              enabled = true
          }
      }
              
      android {
          dataBinding {
              enabled = true
          }
      }
              
    • Added a new Transform API to allow third-party plugins to manipulate compiled .class files before they're converted to .dex files. The Transform API simplifies injecting custom class manipulations while offering more flexibility regarding what you can manipulate. To insert a transform into a build, create a new class implementing one of the Transform interfaces, and register it with android.registerTransform(theTransform) or android.registerTransform(theTransform, dependencies) . There's no need to wire tasks together. Note the following about the Transform API:
      • A transform can apply to one or more of the following: the current project, subprojects, and external libraries.
      • A transform must be registered globally, which applies them to all variants.
      • Internal code processing, through the Java Code Coverage Library (JaCoCo), ProGuard, and MultiDex, now uses the Transform API. However, the Java Android Compiler Kit (Jack) doesn't use this API: only the javac/dx code path does.
      • Gradle executes the transforms in this order: JaCoCo, third-party plugins, ProGuard. The execution order for third-party plugins matches the order in which the transforms are added by the third party plugins; third-party plugin developers can't control the execution order of the transforms through an API.
    • Deprecated the dex getter from the ApplicationVariant class. You can't access the Dex task through the variant API anymore because it's now accomplished through a transform. There's currently no replacement for controlling the dex process.
    • Fixed incremental support for assets.
    • Improved MultiDex support by making it available for test projects, and tests now automatically have the com.android.support:multidex-instrumentation dependency.
    • Added the ability to properly fail a Gradle build and report the underlying error cause when the Gradle build invokes asynchronous tasks and there's a failure in the worker process.
    • Added support for configuring a specific Application Binary Interface (ABI) in variants that contain multiple ABIs.
    • Added support for a comma-separated list of device serial numbers for the ANDROID_SERIAL environment variable when installing or running tests.
    • Fixed an installation failure on devices running Android 5.0 (API level 20) and higher when the APK name contains a space.
    • Fixed various issues related to the Android Asset Packaging Tool (AAPT) error output.
    • Added JaCoCo incremental instrumentation support for faster incremental builds. The Android plugin for Gradle now invokes the JaCoCo instrumenter directly. To force a newer version of the JaCoCo instrumenter, you need to add it as a build script dependency.
    • Fixed JaCoCo support so it ignores files that aren't classes.
    • Added vector drawable support for generating PNGs at build time for backward-compatibility. Android plugin for Gradle generates PNGs for every vector drawable found in a resource directory that doesn't specify an API version or specifies an android:minSdkVersion attribute of 20 or lower in the <uses-sdk> element in the app manifest. You can set PNG densities by using the generatedDensities property in the defaultConfig or productFlavor sections of a build.gradle file.
    • Added sharing of the mockable android.jar , which the plugin generates only once and uses for unit testing. Multiple modules, such as app and lib , now share it. Delete $rootDir/build to regenerate it.
    • Changed the processing of Java resources to occur before the obfuscation tasks instead of during the packaging of the APK. This change allows the obfuscation tasks to have a chance to adapt the Java resources following packages obfuscation.
    • Fixed an issue with using Java Native Interface (JNI) code in the experimental library plugin.
    • Added the ability to set the platform version separately from the android:compileSdkVersion attribute in the experimental library plugin.

    نکات کلی:
    • Fixed the ZipAlign task to properly consume the output of the previous task when using a customized filename.
    • Fixed Renderscript packaging with the NDK .
    • Maintained support for the createDebugCoverageReport build task.
    • Fixed support for customized use of the archiveBaseName property in the build.gradle build file.
    • Fixed the Invalid ResourceType lint warning caused by parameter method annotation lookup when running lint outside of Android Studio.

    افزونه اندروید برای Gradle، نسخه 1.3.0 (ژوئیه 2015)

    وابستگی ها:
    • Gradle 2.2.1 or higher.
    • Build Tools 21.1.1 or higher.
    نکات کلی:
    • Added support for the com.android.build.threadPoolSize property to control the Android task thread pool size from the gradle.properties file or the command line. The following example sets this property to 4.

              
              -Pcom.android.build.threadPoolSize=4
              
            
    • Set the default build behavior to exclude LICENSE and LICENSE.txt files from APKs. To include these files in an APK, remove these files from the packagingOptions.excludes property in the build.gradle file. به عنوان مثال:
      android {
            packagingOptions.excludes = []
          }
            
      android {
            packagingOptions.excludes.clear()
          }
          
    • Added the sourceSets task to inspect the set of all available source sets.
    • Enhanced unit test support to recognize multi-flavor and build variant source folders. For example, to test an app with multi-flavors flavor1 and flavorA with the Debug build type, the test source sets are:
      • تست کنید
      • testFlavor1
      • testFlavorA
      • testFlavor1FlavorA
      • testFlavor1FlavorADebug

      Android tests already recognized multi-flavor source folders.

    • Improved unit test support to:
      • Run javac on main and test sources, even if the useJack property is set to true in your build file.
      • Correctly recognize dependencies for each build type.
    • Added support for specifying instrumentation test-runner arguments from the command line. به عنوان مثال:
      ./gradlew connectedCheck \
         -Pandroid.testInstrumentationRunnerArguments.size=medium \
         -Pandroid.testInstrumentationRunnerArguments.class=TestA,TestB
              
    • Added support for arbitrary additional Android Asset Packaging Tool (AAPT) parameters in the build.gradle file. به عنوان مثال:

      android {
          aaptOptions {
            additionalParameters "--custom_option", "value"
          }
      }
            
      android {
          aaptOptions {
            additionalParameters += listOf("--custom_option", "value")
          }
      }
            
    • Added support for a test APK module as a separate test module, using the targetProjectPath and targetVariant properties to set the APK path and target variant.

      Note: A test APK module does not support product flavors and can only target a single variant. Also, Jacoco is not supported yet.

    • Added resource name validation before merging resources.
    • When building an AAR (Android ARchive) package for library modules, do not provide an automatic @{applicationId} placeholder in the manifest merger settings. Instead, use a different placeholder, such as @{libApplicationId} and provide a value for it if you want to include application Ids in the archive library.

    وابستگی ها:
    • Gradle 2.2.1 or higher.
    • Build Tools 21.1.1 or higher.
    نکات کلی:
    • Enhanced support for running unit tests with Gradle.
      • Added support to include Java-style resources in the classpath when running unit tests directly from Gradle.
      • Added unit test dependency support for Android Archive (AAR) artifacts.
      • Added support for the unitTestVariants property so unit test variants can be manipulated using the build.gradle file.
      • Added the unitTest.all code block under testOptions to configure customized tasks for unit test. The following sample code shows how to add unit test configuration settings using this new option:
        android {
          testOptions {
            unitTest.all {
              jvmArgs '-XX:MaxPermSize=256m' // Or any other gradle option.
            }
          }
        }
        
        android {
          testOptions {
            unitTest.all {
              jvmArgs += listOf("-XX:MaxPermSize=256m") // Or any other gradle option.
            }
          }
        }
                    
      • Fixed the handling of enums and public instance fields in the packaging of the mockable-android.jar file.
      • Fixed library project task dependencies so test classes recompile after changes.
    • Added the testProguardFile property to apply ProGuard files when minifying a test APK.
    • Added the timeOut property to the adbOptions code block for setting the maximum recording time for Android Debug Bridge screen recording.
    • Added support for 280 dpi resources.
    • Improved performance during project evaluation.

    نکات کلی:
    • Modified build variants so only variants that package a Wear app trigger Wear-specific build tasks.
    • Changed dependency related issues to fail at build time rather than at debug time. This behavior allows you to run diagnostic tasks (such as 'dependencies') to help resolve the conflict.
    • Fixed the android.getBootClasspath() method to return a value.

    Android plugin for Gradle, revision 1.1.0 (February 2015)

    وابستگی ها:
    • Gradle 2.2.1 or higher.
    • Build Tools 21.1.1 or higher.
    نکات کلی:
    • Added new unit test support
      • Enabled unit tests to run on the local JVM against a special version of the android.jar file that is compatible with popular mocking frameworks, for example Mockito.
      • Added new test tasks testDebug , testRelease , and testMyFlavorDebug when using product flavors.
      • Added new source folders recognized as unit tests: src/test/java/ , src/testDebug/java/ , src/testMyFlavor/java/ .
      • Added new configurations in the build.gradle file for declaring test-only dependencies, for example, testCompile 'junit:junit:4.11' , testMyFlavorCompile 'some:library:1.0' .

        Note: Test-only dependencies are not currently compatible with Jack (Java Android Compiler Kit).

      • Added the android.testOptions.unitTests.returnDefaultValues option to control the behaviour of the mockable android.jar.
    • Replaced Test in test task names with AndroidTest . For example, the assembleDebugTest task is now assembleDebugAndroidTest task. Unit test tasks still have UnitTest in the task name, for example assembleDebugUnitTest .
    • Modified ProGuard configuration files to no longer apply to the test APK. If minification is enabled, ProGuard processes the test APK and applies only the mapping file that is generated when minifying the main APK.
    • Updated dependency management
      • Fixed issues using provided and package scopes.

        Note: These scopes are incompatible with AAR (Android ARchive) packages and will cause a build with AAR packages to fail.

      • Modified dependency resolution to compare the dependencies of an app under test and the test app. If an artifact with the same version is found for both apps, it's not included with the test app and is packaged only with the app under test. If an artifact with a different version is found for both apps, the build fails.
    • Added support for anyDpi resource qualifier in resource merger.
    • Improved evaluation and IDE sync speeds for projects with a large number of Android modules .

    مدیر منابع

    The Resource Manager contains the following updates:

    • The Resource Manager now supports most resource types.
    • When searching for a resource, the Resource Manager now displays results from all project modules. Previously, searches returned results only from the selected module.
    • The filter button lets you view resources from local dependent modules, external libraries, and the Android framework. You can also use the filter to show theme attributes.
    • You can now rename resources during the import process by clicking within the textbox above the resource.

    To learn more, see Manage your app's UI resources with Resource Manager .

    Updates to the Android Gradle plugin

    The latest version of the Android Gradle plugin includes many updates, including optimizations for build speed, support for the Maven publishing plugin, and support for View Binding. To learn more, read the full release notes .

    مشاهده صحافی

    View binding allows you to more easily write code that interacts with views by generating a binding class for each XML layout file. These classes contain direct references to all views that have an ID in the corresponding layout.

    Because it replaces findViewById() , view binding eliminates the risk of null pointer exceptions resulting from an invalid view ID.

    To enable view binding, you need to use Android Gradle plugin 3.6.0 or higher and include the following in each module's build.gradle file:

    شیار

      android {
          buildFeatures.viewBinding = true
      }
      

    کاتلین

      android {
          buildFeatures.viewBinding = true
      }
      

    اعمال تغییرات

    You can now add a class and then deploy that code change to your running app by clicking either Apply Code Changes or Apply Changes and Restart Activity .

    To learn more about the difference between these two actions, see Apply Changes .

    Refactor menu option to enable Instant Apps support

    You can now instant-enable your base module at any time after creating your app project as follows:

    1. Open the Project panel by selecting View > Tool Windows > Project from the menu bar.
    2. Right-click on your base module, typically named 'app', and select Refactor > Enable Instant Apps Support .
    3. In the dialog that appears, select your base module from the dropdown menu.
    4. روی OK کلیک کنید.

    Note: The option to instant-enable your base app module from the Create New Project wizard has been removed.

    To learn more, read Overview of Google Play Instant .

    Deobfuscate class and method bytecode in APK Analyzer

    When using the APK Analyzer to inspect DEX files, you can deobfuscate class and method bytecode as follows:

    1. Select Build > Analyze APK from the menu bar.
    2. In the dialog that appears, navigate to the APK you want to inspect and select it.
    3. روی Open کلیک کنید.
    4. In the APK Analyzer, select the DEX file you want to inspect.
    5. In the DEX file viewer, load the ProGuard mappings file for the APK you're analyzing.
    6. Right-click on the class or method you want to inspect and select Show bytecode .

    Native tooling

    The following updates support native (C/C++) development in Android Studio.

    پشتیبانی کاتلین

    The following NDK features in Android Studio, previously supported in Java, are now also supported in Kotlin:

    • Navigate from a JNI declaration to the corresponding implementation function in C/C++. View this mapping by hovering over the C or C++ item marker near the line number in the managed source code file.

    • Automatically create a stub implementation function for a JNI declaration. Define the JNI declaration first and then type “jni” or the method name in the C/C++ file to activate.

    • Unused native implementation functions are highlighted as a warning in the source code. JNI declarations with missing implementations are also highlighted as an error.

    • When you rename (refactor) a native implementation function, all corresponding JNI declarations are updated. Rename a JNI declaration to update the native implementation function.

    • Signature checking for implicitly-bound JNI implementations.

    Other JNI improvements

    The code editor in Android Studio now supports a more seamless JNI development workflow, including improved type hints, auto-completion, inspections, and code refactoring.

    APK reloading for native libraries {:#3.6-reload-apk}

    You no longer need to create a new project when the APK in your project is updated outside the IDE. Android Studio detects changes in the APK and gives you the option to re-import it.

    Attach Kotlin-only APK sources

    It is now possible to attach Kotlin-only external APK sources when you profile and debug pre-built APKs. To learn more, see Attach Kotlin/Java sources .

    Leak detection in Memory Profiler

    When analyzing a heap dump in the Memory Profiler, you can now filter profiling data that Android Studio thinks might indicate memory leaks for Activity and Fragment instances in your app.

    The types of data that the filter shows include the following:

    • Activity instances that have been destroyed but are still being referenced.
    • Fragment instances that do not have a valid FragmentManager but are still being referenced.

    Attach Kotlin-only APK sources

    It is now possible to attach Kotlin-only external APK sources when you profile and debug pre-built APKs. To learn more, see Attach Kotlin/Java sources .

    Leak detection in Memory Profiler

    When analyzing a heap dump in the Memory Profiler, you can now filter profiling data that Android Studio thinks might indicate memory leaks for Activity and Fragment instances in your app.

    The types of data that the filter shows include the following:

    • Activity instances that have been destroyed but are still being referenced.
    • Fragment instances that do not have a valid FragmentManager but are still being referenced.

    In certain situations, such as the following, the filter might yield false positives:

    • A Fragment is created but has not yet been used.
    • A Fragment is being cached but not as part of a FragmentTransaction .

    To use this feature, first capture a heap dump or import a heap dump file into Android Studio. To display the fragments and activities that may be leaking memory, select the Activity/Fragment Leaks checkbox in the heap dump pane of the Memory Profiler.

    Resumable SDK downloads

    When downloading SDK components and tools using the SDK Manager, Android Studio now allows you to resume downloads that were interrupted (for example, due to a network issue) instead of restarting the download from the beginning. This enhancement is especially helpful for large downloads, such as the Android Emulator or system images, when internet connectivity is unreliable.

    In addition, if you have an SDK download task running in the background, you can now pause or resume the download using the controls in the status bar.

    Win32 deprecated

    The Windows 32-bit version of Android Studio will no longer receive updates after December 2019, and it will no longer receive support after December 2020. You can continue to use Android Studio. However, to receive additional updates, upgrade your workstation to a 64-bit version of Windows.

    New option for optimizing Gradle sync time

    In previous releases, Android Studio retrieved the list of all Gradle tasks during Gradle Sync. For large projects, retrieving the task list could cause slow sync times.

    To improve Gradle Sync performance, go to File > Settings > Experimental and select Do not build Gradle task list during Gradle sync.

    When you enable this option, Android Studio skips building the task list during sync, which allows Gradle Sync to complete faster and improves UI responsiveness. Keep in mind, when the IDE skips building the task list, the task lists in the Gradle panel are empty, and task name auto-completion in build files does not work.

    New location to toggle Gradle's offline mode

    To enable or disable Gradle's offline mode, first select View > Tool Windows > Gradle from the menu bar. Then, near the top of the Gradle window, click Toggle Offline Mode Gradle offline button in the Gradle panel. .

    IntelliJ IDEA 2019.2

    The core Android Studio IDE has been updated with improvements from IntelliJ IDEA through the 2019.2 release .

  • 3.5 (August 2019)

    Android Studio 3.5 is a major release and a result of Project Marble. Beginning with the release of Android Studio 3.3 , the Project Marble initiative has spanned multiple releases that focus on improving three main areas of the IDE: system health , feature polish , and fixing bugs.

    For information about these and other Project Marble updates, read the Android Developers blog post or the sections below.

    We also want to thank all of our community contributors who have helped with this release.

    3.5.3 (December 2019)

    This minor update includes various bug fixes and performance improvements.

    3.5.2 (November 2019)

    This minor update includes various bug fixes and performance improvements. To see a list of notable bug fixes, read the related post on the Release Updates blog .

    3.5.1 (October 2019)

    This minor update includes various bug fixes and performance improvements. To see a list of notable bug fixes, read the related post on the Release Updates blog .

    Project Marble: System health

    This section describes the changes in Android Studio 3.5 that are focused on improving system health.

    Recommended memory settings

    Android Studio now notifies you if it detects that you could improve performance by increasing the maximum amount of RAM that your OS should allocate for Android Studio processes, such as the core IDE, Gradle daemon, and Kotlin daemon. You can either accept the recommended settings by clicking the action link in the notification, or you can adjust these settings manually by selecting File > Settings (or Android Studio > Preferences on macOS), and then finding the Memory Settings section under Appearance & Behavior > تنظیمات سیستم To learn more, see Maximum heap size .

    A notification about recommended memory settings.

    Memory usage report

    Memory problems in Android Studio are sometimes difficult to reproduce and report. To help solve this problem, Android Studio lets you generate a memory usage report by clicking Help > Analyze Memory Usage from the menu bar. When you do so, the IDE locally sanitizes the data for personal information before asking whether you want to send it to the Android Studio team to help identify the source of the memory issues. To learn more, see Run a memory usage report .

    Windows: Antivirus file I/O optimization

    Android Studio now automatically checks whether certain project directories are excluded from real-time antivirus scanning. When adjustments can be made to improve build performance, Android Studio notifies you and provides instructions on how to optimize your antivirus configuration. To learn more, see Minimize the impact of antivirus software on build speed .

    Project Marble: Feature polish

    This section describes the changes in Android Studio 3.5 that are focused on improving existing features.

    اعمال تغییرات

    Apply Changes lets you push code and resource changes to your running app without restarting your app—and, in some cases, without restarting the current activity. Apply Changes implements a completely new approach for preserving your app's state. Unlike Instant Run, which rewrote the bytecode of your APK, Apply Changes redefines classes on the fly by leveraging the runtime instrumentation supported in Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher.

    To learn more, see Apply Changes .

    The toolbar buttons for Apply Changes.

    The toolbar buttons for Apply Changes.

    App deployment flow

    The IDE has a new drop-down menu that lets you quickly select which device you'd like to deploy your app to. This menu also includes a new option that lets you run your app on multiple devices at once.

    Target device drop-down menu.

    Target device drop-down menu.

    Improved Gradle sync and cache detection

    The IDE now better detects when Gradle periodically clears your build cache when reducing its hard disk consumption. In previous versions, this state caused the IDE to report missing dependencies and Gradle sync to fail. Now, the IDE simply downloads dependencies as needed to ensure that Gradle sync completes successfully.

    Improved build error output

    ساخت Build window icon window now provides better error reporting, such as a link to the file and line of the reported error, for the following build processes:

    • AAPT compilation and linking
    • R8 and ProGuard
    • دکسینگ
    • Resource merging
    • XML file parsing
    • Javac, Kotlinc, and CMake compilation

    Project Upgrades

    Improved update experience to provide more information and actions to help you update the IDE and the Android Gradle plugin. For example, more sync and build errors include actions to help you mitigate errors when updating.

    It's important to keep in mind, you can update the IDE independently of other components, such as the Android Gradle plugin. So, you can safely update the IDE as soon as a newer version is available, and update other components later.

    ویرایشگر چیدمان

    Android Studio 3.5 includes several improvements to layout visualization, management, and interaction.

    When working with ConstraintLayout , a new Constraints section in the Attributes panel lists the constraints relationships of the selected UI component. You can select a constraint either from the design surface or from the constraints list to highlight the constraint in both areas.

    Constraint relationships for a selected UI element.

    Constraint relationships for a selected UI element.

    Similarly, you can now delete a constraint by selecting it and pressing the Delete key. You can also delete a constraint by holding the Control key ( Command on macOS) and clicking on the constraint anchor. Note that when you hold the Control or Command key and hover over an anchor, any associated constraints turn red to indicate that you can click to delete them.

    When a view is selected, you can create a constraint by clicking on any of the + icons in the Constraint Widget section of the Attributes panel, as shown in the following image. When you create a new constraint, the Layout Editor now selects and highlights the constraint, providing immediate visual feedback for what you've just added.

    Using the constraint widget to create constraints .

    When creating a constraint, the Layout Editor now shows only the eligible anchor points to which you can constrain. Previously, the Layout Editor highlighted all anchor points on all views, regardless of whether you could constrain to them. In addition, a blue overlay now highlights the target of the constraint. This highlighting is particularly useful when attempting to constrain to a component that overlaps with another.

    In addition to the above updates, Android Studio 3.5 also contains the following Layout Editor improvements:

    • The Constraint Widget and default margin drop-down now allow you to use dimension resources for margins.
    • In the Layout Editor toolbar, the list of devices that determine the size of the design surface has been updated. In addition, snapping behavior while resizing has been improved, and the resizing handles on the design surface are now always visible. When resizing, new overlays appear that show common device sizes.
    • The Layout Editor has a new color scheme that improves consistency and reduces contrast between components, text, and constraints.
    • Blueprint mode now includes text support for some components where text wasn't being shown.

    For more information about these changes, see Android Studio Project Marble: Layout Editor .

    اتصال داده ها

    In addition to adding incremental annotation processing support for Data Binding, the IDE improves smart editor features and performance when creating data binding expressions in XML.

    Improved support for C/C++ projects

    Android Studio 3.5 includes several changes that improve support for C/C++ projects.

    Build Variants panel improvements for single variant sync

    You can now specify both the active build variant and active ABI in the Build Variants panel. This feature simplifies build configuration per module and can also improve Gradle sync performance.

    To learn more, see Change the build variant .

    Build Variants panel showing single variant selection by ABI.

    The Build Variants panel with single variant selection by ABI.

    Side-by-side versions of the NDK

    You can now use multiple versions of the NDK side-by-side. This feature gives you more flexibility when configuring your projects—for example, if you have projects that use different versions of the NDK on the same machine.

    If your project uses Android Gradle plugin 3.5.0 or higher, you can also specify the version of the NDK that each module in your project should use. You can use this feature to create reproducible builds and to mitigate incompatibilities between NDK versions and the Android Gradle plugin.

    To learn more, see Install and configure the NDK, CMake, and LLDB .

    ChromeOS Support

    Android Studio now officially supports ChromeOS devices, such as the HP Chromebook x360 14, Acer Chromebook 13/Spin 13, and others that you can read about in the system requirements . To get started, download Android Studio on your compatible ChromeOS device and follow the installation instructions .

    Note: Android Studio on ChromeOS currently supports deploying your app only to a connected hardware device. To learn more, read Run apps on a hardware device .

    Conditional delivery for feature modules

    Conditional delivery allows you to set certain device configuration requirements for feature modules to be downloaded automatically during app install. For example, you can configure a feature module that includes functionality for augmented reality (AR) to be available at app install for only devices that support AR.

    This delivery mechanism currently supports controlling the download of a module at app install-time based on the following device configurations:

    • Device hardware and software features, including OpenGL ES version
    • User country
    • سطح API

    If a device does not meet all the requirements you specify, the module is not downloaded at app install-time. However, your app may later request to download the module on demand using the Play Core Library. To learn more, read Configure conditional delivery .

    IntelliJ IDEA 2019.1

    The core Android Studio IDE has been updated with improvements from IntelliJ IDEA through the 2019.1 release , such as theme customization.

    The last IntelliJ version that was included with Android Studio was 2018.3.4. For more information about the improvements from other IntelliJ versions that are included cumulatively with this release of Android Studio, see the following bug-fix updates:

    Android Gradle plugin 3.5.0 updates

    New Project Structure Dialog

    The new Project Structure Dialog (PSD) makes it easier to update dependencies and configure different aspects of your project, such as modules, build variants, signing configurations, and build variables.

    You can open the PSD by selecting File > Project Structure from the menu bar. You can also open the PSD by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Alt+S on Windows and Linux, or Command+; (semicolon) on macOS. You can find descriptions of some of the new and updated sections of the PSD below.

    متغیرها

    The new variables section of the PSD allows you to create and manage build variables, such as those to keep version numbers for dependencies consistent across your project.

    • Quickly view and edit build variables that already exist in your project's Gradle build scripts.
    • Add new build variables at a project- or module-level directly from the PSD.

    Note: If your existing build configuration files assign values through complex Groovy scripts, you may not be able to edit those values through the PSD. Additionally, you can not edit build files written in Kotlin using the PSD.

    ماژول ها

    Configure properties that are applied to all build variants in an existing module or add new modules to your project from the Modules section. For example, this is where you can configure defaultConfig properties or manage signing configurations.

    وابستگی ها

    Inspect and visualize each dependency in the dependency graph of your project, as resolved by Gradle during project sync, by following these steps:

    1. In the left pane of the PSD, select Dependencies .
    2. In the Modules pane, select a module for which you'd like to inspect the resolved dependencies.
    3. On the right side of the PSD, open the Resolved Dependencies pane, which is shown below.

    You can also quickly search for and add dependencies to your project by first selecting a module from the Dependencies section of the PSD, clicking the (+) button in the Declared Dependencies section, and selecting the type of dependency you want to add.

    Depending on the type of dependency you select, you should see a dialog, similar to the one below, that helps you add the dependency to the module.

    ساخت انواع

    In this section of the PSD, create and configure build variants and product flavors for each module in your project. You can add manifest placeholders, add ProGuard files, and assign signing keys, and more.

    پیشنهادات

    See suggested updates for project dependencies and build variables in the Suggestions section, as shown below.

    New Resource Manager

    Resource Manager is a new tool window for importing, creating, managing, and using resources in your app. You can open the tool window by selecting View > Tool Windows > Resource Manager from the menu bar. The Resource Manager allows you to do the following:

    • Visualize resources: You can preview drawables, colors, and layouts to quickly find the resources you need.
    • Bulk import: You can import multiple drawable assets at once by either dragging and dropping them into the Resource Manager tool window or by using the Import drawables wizard. To access the wizard, select the (+) button at the top-left corner of the tool window, and then select Import Drawables from the drop down menu.
    • Convert SVGs into VectorDrawable objects: You can use the Import Drawables wizard to convert your SVG images into VectorDrawable objects.
    • Drag and drop assets: From the Resource Manager tool window, you can drag and drop drawables onto both the design and XML views of the Layout Editor.
    • View alternative versions: You can now view alternative versions of your resources by double-clicking a resource within the Tool window. This view shows the different versions you have created and the qualifiers that were included.
    • Tile and list views: You can change the view within the tool window to visualize your resources in different arrangements.

    To learn more, read the guide about how to Manage app resources .

    Checking build IDs when profiling and debugging APKs

    When you provide debugging symbol files for the .so shared libraries inside your APK, Android Studio verifies that the build ID of the provided symbol files match the build ID of the .so libraries inside the APK.

    If you build the native libraries in your APK with a build ID, Android Studio checks whether the build ID in your symbol files matches the build ID in your native libraries and rejects the symbol files if there is a mismatch. If you did not build with a build ID, then providing incorrect symbol files may cause problems with debugging.

    R8 enabled by default

    R8 integrates desugaring, shrinking, obfuscating, optimizing, and dexing all in one step—resulting in noticeable build performance improvements . R8 was introduced in Android Gradle plugin 3.3.0 and is now enabled by default for both app and Android library projects using plugin 3.4.0 and higher.

    The image below provides a high-level overview of the compile process before R8 was introduced.

    Before R8, ProGuard was a different compile step from dexing and
            desugaring.

    Now, with R8, desugaring, shrinking, obfuscating, optimizing, and dexing (D8) are all completed in one step, as illustrated below.

    With R8, desugaring, shrinking, obfuscating, optimizing, and dexing
            are all performed in a single compile step.

    Keep in mind, R8 is designed to work with your existing ProGuard rules, so you'll likely not need to take any actions to benefit from R8. However, because it's a different technology to ProGuard that's designed specifically for Android projects, shrinking and optimization may result in removing code that ProGuard may have not. So, in this unlikely situation, you might need to add additional rules to keep that code in your build output.

    If you experience issues using R8, read the R8 compatibility FAQ to check if there's a solution to your issue. If a solution isn't documented, please report a bug . You can disable R8 by adding one of the following lines to your project's gradle.properties file:

        # Disables R8 for Android Library modules only.
        android.enableR8.libraries = false
        # Disables R8 for all modules.
        android.enableR8 = false
        
      

    Note: For a given build type, if you set useProguard to false in your app module's build.gradle file, the Android Gradle plugin uses R8 to shrink your app's code for that build type, regardless of whether you disable R8 in your project's gradle.properties فایل gradle.properties

    All argument types supported by the Navigation component are now supported in the Navigation Editor. For more information on supported types, see Pass data between destinations .

    Layout Editor improvements {:#layout-editor}

    The Attributes pane in the Layout Editor has been streamlined into a single page with sections you can expand to reveal attributes you can configure. The Attributes pane also includes the following updates:

    • A new Declared Attributes section lists the attributes the layout file specifies and allows you to quickly add new ones.
    • The Attributes pane now also features indicators next to each attribute that are solid when the attribute's value is a resource reference and empty otherwise.
    • Attributes with errors or warnings are now highlighted. Red highlights indicate errors (for example, when you use invalid layout values) and orange highlights indicate warnings (for example, when you use hard-coded values).

    New intention action to quickly import dependencies

    If you start using certain Jetpack and Firebase classes in your code, a new intention action suggests adding the required Gradle library dependency to your project, if you haven't already done so. For example, if you reference the WorkManager class without first importing the required android.arch.work:work-runtime dependency, an intention action lets you do so easily in a single click, as shown below.

    In particular, because Jetpack repackaged the support library into discrete packages that are easier to manage and update, this intention action helps you quickly add only the dependencies you need for the Jetpack components you want to use.

    3.3 (January 2019)

    Android Studio 3.3 is a major release that includes a variety of new features and improvements.

    3.3.2 (March 2019)

    Delete unused Android Studio directories

    When you run a major version of Android Studio for the first time, it looks for directories containing caches, settings, indices, and logs for versions of Android Studio for which a corresponding installation can't be found. The Delete Unused Android Studio Directories dialog then displays locations, sizes, and last-modified times of these unused directories and provides an option to delete them.

    The directories Android Studio considers for deletion are listed below:

    • Linux: ~/.AndroidStudio[Preview] XY
    • Mac: ~/Library/{Preferences, Caches, Logs, Application Support}/AndroidStudio[Preview] XY
    • Windows: %USER%.AndroidStudio[Preview] XY

    Lint improvements

    Lint, when invoked from Gradle, is significantly faster—larger projects can expect lint to run up to four times faster.

    Create New Project wizard

    The Create New Project wizard has a new look and contains updates that help streamline the creation of new Android Studio projects.

    For more information, see Create a project .

    Profiler updates

    Android Studio 3.3 includes updates to several of the individual profilers.

    عملکرد بهبود یافته است

    Based on user feedback, rendering performance while using the profilers has been greatly improved. Please continue to provide feedback , especially if you continue to see performance issues.

    Profiler memory allocation tracking options

    To improve app performance while profiling, the Memory Profiler now samples memory allocations periodically by default. If desired, you can change this behavior by using the Allocation Tracking dropdown when testing on devices running Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher.

    Using the Allocation Tracking dropdown, you can choose from the following modes:

    • Full: captures all object memory allocations. Note that if you have an app that allocates a lot of objects, you might see significant performance issues while profiling.

    • Sampled: captures a periodic sample of object memory allocations. This is the default behavior and has less impact on app performance while profiling. You might encounter some performance issues with apps that allocate a lot of objects within a short time period.

    • Off: turns memory allocation off. If not already selected, this mode is enabled automatically while taking a CPU recording and then returned to the previous setting when the recording is finished. You can change this behavior in the CPU recording configuration dialog.

      The tracking affects both Java objects and JNI references.

    Inspect frame rendering data

    In the CPU Profiler , you can now inspect how long it takes your Java app to render each frame on the main UI thread and RenderThread. This data might be useful when investigating bottlenecks that cause UI jank and low framerates. For example, each frame that takes longer than the 16ms required to maintain a smooth framerate is displayed in red.

    To see frame rendering data, record a trace using a configuration that allows you to Trace System Calls . After recording the trace, look for info about each frame along the timeline for the recording under the section called FRAMES , as shown below.

    To learn more about investigating and fixing framerate issues, read Slow rendering .

    Fragments in the event timeline

    The event timeline now shows when fragments are attached and detached. Additionally, when you hover over a fragment, a tooltip shows you the fragment status.

    View formatted text for connection payloads in the Network profiler

    Previously, the Network profiler displayed only raw text from connection payloads. Android Studio 3.3 now formats certain text types by default, including JSON, XML, and HTML. In the Response and Request tabs, click the View Parsed link to display formatted text, and click the View Source link to display raw text.

    For more information, see Inspect network traffic with Network Profiler .

    Automatic downloading of SDK components

    When your project needs an SDK component from the SDK platforms, NDK, or CMake, Gradle now attempts to automatically download the required packages as long as you've previously accepted any related license agreements using the SDK Manager.

    For more information, see Auto-download missing packages with Gradle .

    Support for Clang-Tidy

    Android Studio now includes support for static code analysis using Clang-Tidy for projects that include native code. To enable support for Clang-Tidy, update your NDK to r18 or higher.

    You can then enable or re-enable the inspections by opening the Settings or Preferences dialog and navigating to Editor > Inspections > C/C++ > General > Clang-Tidy . When selecting this inspection in the Settings or Preferences dialog, you can also see the list of Clang-Tidy checks that are enabled and disabled under the Option section of the right-most panel. To enable additional checks , add them to the list and click Apply .

    To configure Clang-Tidy with additional options , click Configure Clang-Tidy Checks Options and add them in the dialog that opens.

    Removal of options for C++ customization

    The following options have been removed from the Customize C++ Support dialog:

    • Exceptions Support (-fexceptions)
    • Runtime Type Information Support (-ftti)

    The respective behaviors are enabled for all projects created through Android Studio.

    CMake version 3.10.2

    CMake version 3.10.2 is now included with SDK Manager. Note that Gradle still uses version 3.6.0 by default.

    To specify a CMake version for Gradle to use, add the following to your module's build.gradle file:

        android {
            ...
            externalNativeBuild {
                cmake {
                    ...
                    version "3.10.2"
                }
            }
        }
        
      

    For more information on configuring CMake in build.gradle , see Manually configure Gradle .

    New “+” syntax to specify minimum CMake versions

    When specifying a version of CMake in your main module's build.gradle file, you can now append a “+” to match the behavior of CMake's cmake_minimum_required() command.

    Caution: Using "+" syntax with other build dependencies is discouraged, as dynamic dependencies can cause unexpected version updates and difficulty resolving version differences.

    Android App Bundles now support Instant Apps

    Android Studio now lets you build Android App Bundles with full support for Google Play Instant . In other words, you can now build and deploy both installed app and instant experiences from a single Android Studio project and include them in a single Android App Bundle.

    If you're creating a new Android Studio project using the Create New Project dialog, make sure you check the box next to Configure your project > This project will support instant apps . Android Studio then creates a new app project as it normally would, but includes the following properties in your manifest to add Instant app support to your app's base module:

        <manifest ... xmlns:dist="http://schemas.android.com/apk/distribution">
            <dist:module dist:instant="true" />
            ...
        </manifest>
        
      

    You can then create an instant-enabled feature module by selecting File > New > New Module from the menu bar and then selecting Instant Dynamic Feature Module from the Create New Module dialog. Keep in mind, creating this module also instant-enables your app's base module.

    To deploy your app to a local device as an instant experience, edit your run configuration and check the box next to General > Deploy as instant app .

    Single-variant project sync

    Syncing your project with your build configuration is an important step in letting Android Studio understand how your project is structured. However, this process can be time-consuming for large projects. If your project uses multiple build variants, you can now optimize project syncs by limiting them to only the variant you have currently selected.

    You need to use Android Studio 3.3 or higher with Android Gradle plugin 3.3.0 or higher to enable this optimization. When you meet these requirements, the IDE prompts you to enable this optimization when you sync your project. The optimization is also enabled by default on new projects.

    To enable this optimization manually, click File > Settings > Experimental > Gradle ( Android Studio > Preferences > Experimental > Gradle on a Mac) and select the Only sync the active variant checkbox.

    Note: This optimization currently supports projects that include only the Java programming language. If, for example, the IDE detects Kotlin or C++ code in your project, it does not automatically enable this optimization, and you should not enable it manually.

    For more information, see Enable single-variant project sync .

    Provide quick feedback

    If you've opted into sharing usage statistics to help improve Android Studio, you'll see these two new icons in the status bar at the bottom of the IDE window:

    Simply click the icon that best represents your current experience with the IDE. When you do so, the IDE sends usage statistics that allow the Android Studio team to better understand your sentiment. In some cases, such as when you indicate a negative experience with the IDE, you'll have an opportunity to provide additional feedback.

    If you haven't already done so, you can enable sharing usage statistics by opening the Settings dialog Preferences on a Mac), navigating to Appearance & Behavior > System Settings > Data Sharing and checking Send usage statistics to Google .

    3.2 (September 2018)

    Android Studio 3.2 is a major release that includes a variety of new features and improvements.

    3.2.1 (October 2018)

    This update to Android Studio 3.2 includes the following changes and fixes:

    • The bundled Kotlin version is now 1.2.71.
    • The default build tools version is now 28.0.3.
    • In the Navigation library, argument types have been renamed from type to argType .
    • The following bugs have been fixed:
      • When using the Data Binding library, variable names with underscores were causing compilation errors.
      • CMake was causing IntelliSense and other CLion features to fail.
      • Adding a SliceProvider was causing compilation errors in projects that did not use androidx.* libraries.
      • Some Kotlin unit tests were not being run.
      • An issue with data binding was causing a PsiInvalidElementAccessException .
      • <merge> elements were sometimes causing the Layout Editor to crash.

    3.2.0 known issues

    Note: These issues have been resolved in Android Studio 3.2.1

    • We strongly recommend against using Kotlin version 1.2.70.

      Kotlin version 1.2.61 fixes a bug that can cause Android Studio to hang, but Kotlin 1.2.70 does not include this fix .

      Kotlin versions 1.2.71 and later, however, do include this fix.

    • Although you typically don't need to specify the build tools version, when using Android Gradle plugin 3.2.0 with renderscriptSupportModeEnabled set to true , you need to include the following in each module's build.gradle file:

      android.buildToolsVersion "28.0.3"

    What's New Assistant

    A new assistant informs you about the latest changes in Android Studio.

    The assistant opens when you start Android Studio after a fresh installation or update if it detects that there is new information to show. You can also open the assistant by choosing Help > What's new in Android Studio .

    اندروید جت پک

    Android Jetpack helps to accelerate Android development with components, tools, and guidance that eliminate repetitive tasks and enable you to more quickly and easily build high-quality, testable apps. Android Studio includes the following updates to support Jetpack. For more information, see the Jetpack documentation .

    The new Navigation Editor integrates with the navigation components of Android Jetpack to provide a graphical view for creating the navigation structure of your app. The Navigation Editor simplifies the design and implementation of navigation between in-app destinations.

    In Android Studio 3.2, the Navigation Editor is an experimental feature. To enable the Navigation Editor, click File > Settings ( Android Studio > Preferences on Mac), select the Experimental category in the left pane, check the box next to Enable Navigation Editor , and restart Android Studio.

    To learn more, read the Navigation Editor documentation .

    AndroidX migration

    As part of Jetpack, we are migrating the Android Support Libraries to a new Android extension library using the androidx namespace. For more information, see the AndroidX overview .

    Android Studio 3.2 helps you through this process with a new migration feature.

    To migrate an existing project to AndroidX, choose Refactor > Migrate to AndroidX . If you have any Maven dependencies that have not migrated to the AndroidX namespace, the Android Studio build system also automatically converts those project dependencies.

    The Android Gradle plugin provides the following global flags that you can set in your gradle.properties file:

    • android.useAndroidX : When set to true , this flag indicates that you want to start using AndroidX from now on. If the flag is absent, Android Studio behaves as if the flag were set to false .
    • android.enableJetifier : When set to true , this flag indicates that you want to have tool support (from the Android Gradle plugin) to automatically convert existing third-party libraries as if they were written for AndroidX. If the flag is absent, Android Studio behaves as if the flag were set to false .

    Both flags are set to true when you use the Migrate to AndroidX command.

    If you want to start using AndroidX libraries immediately and don't need to convert existing third-party libraries, you can set the android.useAndroidX flag to true and the android.enableJetifier flag to false .

    Android App Bundle

    Android App Bundle is a new upload format that includes all of your app's compiled code and resources, but defers APK generation and signing to the Google Play Store.

    Google Play's new app serving model then uses your app bundle to generate and serve optimized APKs for each user's device configuration, so each user downloads only the code and resources they need to run your app. You no longer need to build, sign, and manage multiple APKs, and users get smaller, more optimized downloads.

    Additionally, you can add feature modules to your app project and include them in your app bundle. Your users can then download and install your app's features on demand.

    To build a bundle, choose Build > Build Bundle(s) / APK(s) > Build Bundle(s) .

    For more information, including instructions for building and analyzing an Android App Bundle, see Android App Bundle .

    Sample data in Layout Editor

    Many Android layouts have runtime data that can make it difficult to visualize the look and feel of a layout during the design stage of app development. You can now easily see a preview of your view in the Layout Editor filled with sample data. When you add a view, a button appears below the view in the Design window. Click this button to set the design-time view attributes. You can choose from a variety of sample data templates and specify the number of sample items with which to populate the view.

    To try using sample data, add a RecyclerView to a new layout, click the design-time attributes button below the view, and choose a selection from the carousel of sample data templates.

    Slices

    Slices provide a new way to embed portions of your app's functionality in other user interface surfaces on Android. For example, Slices make it possible to show app functionality and content in Google Search suggestions.

    Android Studio 3.2 has a built-in template to help you to extend your app with the new Slice Provider APIs, as well as new lint checks to ensure that you're following best practices when constructing the Slices.

    To get started right-click a project folder and choose New > Other > Slice Provider .

    To learn more, including how to test your Slice interactions, read the Slices getting started guide .

    Kotlin 1.2.61

    Android Studio 3.2 bundles Kotlin 1.2.61, and the new Android SDK integrates better with Kotlin. For more information, see the Android Developers blog .

    IntelliJ IDEA 2018.1.6

    The core Android Studio IDE has been updated with improvements from IntelliJ IDEA through the 2018.1.6 release .

    Android profilers

    Try the following new Android Profiler features in Android Studio 3.2.

    جلسات

    You can now save Profiler data as sessions to revisit and inspect later. The profiler keeps your session data until you restart the IDE.

    When you record a method trace or capture a heap dump , the IDE adds that data (along with your app's network activity) as a separate entry to the current session, and you can easily switch back and forth between recordings to compare data.

    System Trace

    In the CPU Profiler , select the new System Trace configuration to inspect your device's system CPU and thread activity. This trace configuration is built on systrace and is useful for investigating system-level issues, such as UI jank.

    While using this trace configuration, you can visually mark important code routines in the profiler timeline by instrumenting your C/C++ code with the native tracing API or your Java code with the Trace class.

    Inspect JNI references in the Memory Profiler

    If you deploy your app to a device running Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher, you can now inspect memory allocations for your app's JNI code using the Memory Profiler .

    While your app is running, select a portion of the timeline that you want to inspect and select JNI heap from the drop-down menu above the class list, as shown below. You can then inspect objects in the heap as you normally would and double-click objects in the Allocation Call Stack tab to see where the JNI references are allocated and released in your code.

    Import, export, and inspect memory heap dump files

    You can now import, export, and inspect .hprof memory heap dump files created with the Memory Profiler .

    Import your .hprof file by clicking Start new profiler session in the profiler's Sessions pane and then selecting Load from file . You can then inspect its data in the Memory Profiler as you would any other heap dump.

    To save heap dump data to review later, use the Export Heap Dump button at the right of the Heap Dump entry in the Sessions pane. In the Export As dialog that appears, save the file with the .hprof filename extension.

    Record CPU activity during app startup

    You can now record CPU activity during your app's startup, as follows:

    1. Select Run > Edit Configurations from the main menu.
    2. Under the Profiling tab of your desired run configuration, check the box next to Start recording a method trace on startup .
    3. Select a CPU recording configuration to use from the dropdown menu.
    4. Deploy your app to a device running Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher by selecting Run > Profile .
    Export CPU traces

    After you record CPU activity with the CPU Profiler, you can export the data as a .trace file to share with others or inspect later.

    To export a trace after you've recorded CPU activity, do the following:

    1. Right-click on the recording you want to export from the CPU timeline.
    2. Select Export trace from the dropdown menu.
    3. Navigate to where you want to save the file and click Save .
    Import and inspect CPU trace files

    You can now import and inspect .trace files created with the Debug API or CPU Profiler . (Currently, you can't import System Trace recordings.)

    Import your trace file by clicking Start new profiler session in the profiler's Sessions pane and then selecting Load from file . You can then inspect its data in the CPU Profiler similar to how you normally would, with the following exceptions:

    • CPU activity is not represented along the CPU timeline.
    • The thread activity timeline indicates only where trace data is available for each thread and not actual thread states (such as running, waiting, or sleeping).
    Record CPU activity using the Debug API

    You can now start and stop recording CPU activity in the CPU Profiler by instrumenting your app with the Debug API . After you deploy your app to a device, the profiler automatically starts recording CPU activity when your app calls startMethodTracing(String tracePath) , and the profiler stops recording when your app calls stopMethodTracing() . While recording CPU activity that's triggered using this API, the CPU Profiler shows Debug API as the selected CPU recording configuration.

    Energy Profiler

    The Energy Profiler displays a visualization of the estimated energy usage of your app, as well as system events that affect energy usage, such as wakelocks, alarms, and jobs.

    The Energy Profiler appears as a new row at the bottom of the Profiler window when you run your app on a connected device or Android Emulator running Android 8.0 (API 26) or higher.

    Click the Energy row to maximize the Energy Profiler view. Place your mouse pointer over a bar in the timeline to see a breakdown of energy use by CPU, network, and location (GPS) resources, as well as relevant system events.

    System events that affect energy usage are indicated in the System timeline below the Energy timeline. Details of system events within the specified time range are shown in the event pane when you select a time range in the Energy timeline.

    To see the call stack and other details for a system event, such as a wakelock, select it in the event pane. To go to the code responsible for a system event, double-click the entry in the call stack.

    Lint checking

    Android Studio 3.2 includes many new and improved features for lint checking .

    The new lint checks help you to find and identify common code problems, ranging from warnings about potential usability issues to high-priority errors regarding potential security vulnerabilities.

    Lint checks for Java/Kotlin interoperability

    To make sure that your Java code interoperates well with your Kotlin code, new lint checks enforce the best practices described in the Kotlin Interop Guide . Examples of these checks include looking for the presence of Nullability annotations, use of Kotlin hard keywords, and placing lambda parameters last.

    To enable these checks, click File > Settings ( Android Studio > Preferences on Mac) to open the Settings dialog, navigate to the Editor > Inspections > Android > Lint > Interoperability > Kotlin Interoperability section, and select the rules that you want to enable.

    To enable these checks for command-line builds, add the following to your build.gradle file:

            android {
                lintOptions {
                    check 'Interoperability'
                }
            }
            
          
    Lint checks for Slices

    New lint checks for Slices help to ensure that you are constructing Slices correctly. For example, lint checks warn you if you have not assigned a primary action to a Slice.

    New Gradle target

    Use the new lintFix Gradle task to apply all of the safe fixes suggested by the lint check directly to the source code. An example of a lint check that suggests a safe fix to apply is SyntheticAccessor .

    Metadata updates

    Various metadata, such as the service cast check, have been updated for lint checks to work with Android 9 (API level 28).

    Warning if running lint on a new variant

    Lint now records which variant and version a baseline is recorded with, and lint warns you if you run it on a different variant than the one with which the baseline was created.

    Improvements to existing lint checks

    Android Studio 3.2 includes many improvements to existing lint checks. For example, the resource cycle checks now apply to additional resource types, and the translation detector can find missing translations on the fly, in the editor.

    Issue IDs more discoverable

    Issue IDs are now shown in more places now, including in the Inspection Results window. This makes it easier for you to find the information that you need to enable or disable specific checks through lintOptions in build.gradle .

    For more information, see Configure lint options with Gradle .

    Data Binding V2

    Data Binding V2 is now enabled by default and is compatible with V1. This means that, if you have library dependencies that you compiled with V1, you can use them with projects using Data Binding V2. However, note that projects using V1 cannot consume dependencies that were compiled with V2.

    D8 desugaring

    In Android Studio 3.1, we integrated the desugaring step into the D8 tool as an experimental feature, reducing overall build time. In Android Studio 3.2, desugaring with D8 is turned on by default.

    New code shrinker

    R8 is a new tool for code shrinking and obfuscation that replaces ProGuard. You can start using the preview version of R8 by including the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

          android.enableR8 = true
        

    Changed default ABIs for multi-APKs

    When building multiple APKs that each target a different ABI, the plugin no longer generates APKs for the following ABIs by default: mips , mips64 , and armeabi .

    If you want to build APKs that target these ABIs, you must use NDK r16b or lower and specify the ABIs in your build.gradle file, as shown below:

        splits {
            abi {
                include 'armeabi', 'mips', 'mips64'
                ...
            }
        }
        
        splits {
            abi {
                include("armeabi", "mips", "mips64")
                ...
            }
        }
        

    Note: This behavior change is also included in Android Studio 3.1 RC1 and higher.

    Improved editor features for CMake build files

    If you use CMake to add C and C++ code to your project , Android Studio now includes improved editor features to help you to edit your CMake build scripts, such as the following:

    • Syntax highlighting and code completion: The IDE now highlights and suggests code completion for common CMake commands. Additionally, you can navigate to a file by clicking it while pressing the Control key (Command on Mac).
    • Code reformatting: You can now use IntelliJ's code reformat option to apply code styles to your CMake build scripts.
    • Safe refactoring: The IDE's built-in refactoring tools now also check if you are renaming or deleting files that you reference in your CMake build scripts.

    When using the Project window in previous versions of Android Studio, you could navigate and inspect only the header files that belong to libraries you build from a local project. With this release, you can now also view and inspect header files included with external C/C++ library dependencies that you import into your app project.

    If you already include C/C++ code and libraries in your project , open the Project window on the left side of the IDE by selecting View > Tool Windows > Project from the main menu and select Android from the drop-down menu. In the cpp directory, all headers that are within the scope of your app project are organized under the include node for each of your local C/C++ library dependencies, as shown below.

    Native multidex enabled by default

    Previous versions of Android Studio enabled native multidex when deploying the debug version of an app to a device running Android API level 21 or higher. Now, whether you're deploying to a device or building an APK for release, the Android plugin for Gradle enables native multidex for all modules that set minSdkVersion=21 or higher.

    AAPT2 moved to Google's Maven repository

    Beginning with Android Studio 3.2, the source for AAPT2 (Android Asset Packaging Tool 2) is Google's Maven repository.

    To use AAPT2, make sure that you have a google() dependency in your build.gradle file, as shown here:

        buildscript {
            repositories {
                google() // here
                jcenter()
            }
            dependencies {
                classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0'
            }
        }
        allprojects {
            repositories {
                google() // and here
                jcenter()
            }
        }
        
        buildscript {
            repositories {
                google() // here
                jcenter()
            }
            dependencies {
                classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0")
            }
        }
        allprojects {
            repositories {
                google() // and here
                jcenter()
            }
        }
        

    The new version of AAPT2 fixes many issues, including improved handling of non-ASCII characters on Windows.

    Removal of configuration on demand

    The Configure on demand preference has been removed from Android Studio.

    Android Studio no longer passes the --configure-on-demand argument to Gradle.

    ADB Connection Assistant

    The new ADB Connection Assistant provides step-by-step instructions to help you set up and use a device over the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) connection.

    To start the assistant, choose Tools > Connection Assistant .

    The ADB Connection Assistant provides instructions, in-context controls, and a list of connected devices in a series of pages in the Assistant panel.

    Emulator improvements

    You can now save and load snapshots of an AVD (Android virtual device) at any time in the Android Emulator, making it fast and easy to return an emulated device to a known state for testing. When you edit an AVD using the AVD Manager, you can specify which AVD snapshot to load when the AVD starts.

    Controls for saving, loading, and managing AVD snapshots are now in the Snapshots tab in the emulator's Extended controls window.

    For details, see Snapshots .

    For additional information on what's new and changed in the Emulator, see the Emulator release notes .

    3.1 (March 2018)

    Android Studio 3.1.0 is a major release that includes a variety of new features and improvements.

    3.1.4 (August 2018)

    This update to Android Studio 3.1 includes the following changes and fixes:

    • The bundled Kotlin is now version 1.2.50.
    • New projects are created with kotlin-stdlib-jdk* artifacts , rather than with kotlin-stdlib-jre* artifacts, which are deprecated.
    • R8 parsing of ProGuard rules has been improved.
    • The following bugs have been fixed:
      • Attempting to run the Kotlin Main class failed with an error: "Error: Could not find or load main class..."
      • R8 entered an infinite loop while performing certain optimizations.
      • Using the Rerun failed tests command in the Run window sometimes incorrectly returned the message "No tests were found".
      • D8 did not correctly handle invoke-virtual instances, causing a crash with a VerifyError : invoke-super/virtual can't be used on private method
      • The Data Binding compiler was depending on an old version of com.android.tools:annotations . The compiler now uses tools annotations from the base project when available.
      • Android Studio crashed during fragment transitions when using profilers.
      • The debugger crashed when debugging a layout with a text box.
      • D8 failed to read some ZIP files with special characters.

    3.1.3 (June 2018)

    This update to Android Studio 3.1 includes fixes for the following bugs:

    • Memory leaks caused Android Studio to become slow and unresponsive after you had been using the Layout Editor. This update includes fixes for most of these issues. We intend to release another update soon to address additional memory leaks.
    • Some applications built with D8 crashed on some Verizon Ellipsis tablets.
    • Installation of applications built with D8 failed with an INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT error on devices running Android 5.0 or 5.1 (API level 21 or 22).
    • Some applications that used the OkHttp library and were built with D8 crashed on devices running Android 4.4 (API level 19).
    • Android Studio sometimes failed to start, with a ProcessCanceledException during class initialization for com.intellij.psi.jsp.JspElementType .

    3.1.2 (April 2018)

    This update to Android Studio 3.1 includes fixes for the following bugs:

    • In some cases, Android Studio hung indefinitely during exit.
    • Builds configured with source sets failed with the following message when Instant Run was enabled:

      "The SourceSet name is not recognized by the Android Gradle Plugin."

    • When Instant Run was enabled, builds of new Kotlin projects failed when triggered by the Run command.
    • During editing of the build.gradle file, there was sometimes a noticeable delay between typing a character and the character appearing on the screen.
    • Build failures occurred during dexing in some projects with large numbers of modules or external dependencies, with the following error message:

      "RejectedExecutionException: Thread limit exceeded replacing blocked worker"

    • The computation of the D8 main DEX list was not taking into account some reflective invocations.

    This update also includes changes that make running lint checks from Gradle much faster in some scenarios.

    3.1.1 (April 2018)

    This update to Android Studio 3.1 includes fixes for the following bugs:

    • In some cases, when a project created in Android Studio 3.0 was opened for the first time in Android Studio 3.1, the Gradle-aware Make task was removed from the Before launch area in Run/Debug Configurations . The result was that projects did not build when the Run or Debug button was clicked, which in turn caused failures such as deployment of incorrect APKs and crashes when using Instant Run.

      To solve this problem, Android Studio 3.1.1 adds the Gradle-aware Make task to the run configuration for projects that are missing this entry. This modification occurs after the first Gradle sync when the project is loaded.

    • The debugger crashed when debugging a layout with a text box if advanced profiling was enabled.
    • Android Studio froze after you clicked Build Variants .
    • AAR (Android archive) files were extracted twice, once during the Gradle sync process and once during the Gradle build process.
    • Elements were missing from some vector drawables imported from SVG files.
    • The warning regarding the deprecation of the compile dependency configuration has been updated with better guidance regarding the implementation and api configurations. For details of migrating away from using the compile configuration, see the documentation for the new dependency configurations .

    Coding/IDE

    IntelliJ 2017.3.3

    The core Android Studio IDE has been updated with improvements from IntelliJ IDEA through the 2017.3.3 release. Improvements include better control flow analysis for collections and strings, improved nullability inference, new quick fixes, and much more.

    For details, see the JetBrains release notes for IntelliJ IDEA versions 2017.2 and 2017.3 , as well as the JetBrains release notes for bug-fix updates .

    SQL editing improvements with Room

    When you use the Room database library , you can take advantage of several improvements to SQL editing:

    • Code completion within a Query understands SQL tables (entities), columns, query parameters, aliases, joins, subqueries, and WITH clauses.
    • SQL syntax highlighting now works.
    • You can right-click a table name in SQL and rename it, which also rewrites the corresponding Java or Kotlin code (including, for example, the return type of the query). Renaming works in the other direction, too, so renaming a Java class or field rewrites the corresponding SQL code.
    • SQL usages are shown when using Find usages (right-click and choose Find usages from the context menu).
    • To navigate to an SQL entity's declaration in Java or Kotlin code, you can hold Control (Command on Mac) while clicking the entity.

    For information on using SQL with Room, see Save data in a local database using Room .

    Updates to data binding

    This update includes several improvements for data binding :

    • You can now use a LiveData object as an observable field in data binding expressions. The ViewDataBinding class now includes a new setLifecycle() method that you use to observe LiveData objects.

    • The ObservableField class can now accept other Observable objects in its constructor.

    • You can preview a new incremental compiler for your data binding classes. For details of this new compiler and instructions for enabling it, see Data Binding Compiler V2 .

      Benefits of the new compiler include the following:

      • ViewBinding classes are generated by the Android Plugin for Gradle before the Java compiler.
      • Libraries keep their generated binding classes when the app is compiled, rather than being regenerated each time. This can greatly improve performance for multi-module projects.

    Compiler and Gradle

    D8 is the default DEX compiler

    The D8 compiler is now used by default for generating DEX bytecode.

    This new DEX compiler brings with it several benefits, including the following:

    • Faster dexing
    • مصرف حافظه کمتر
    • Improved code generation (better register allocation, smarter string tables)
    • Better debugging experience when stepping through code

    You don't need to make any changes to your code or your development workflow to get these benefits, unless you had previously manually disabled the D8 compiler.

    If you set android.enableD8 to false in your gradle.properties , either delete that flag or set it to true :

            android.enableD8=true
          

    For details, see New DEX compiler .

    Incremental desugaring

    For projects that use Java 8 language features , incremental desugaring is enabled by default, which can improve build times.

    Desugaring converts syntactic sugar into a form that the compiler can process more efficiently.

    You can disable incremental desugaring by specifying the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

            android.enableIncrementalDesugaring=false
          
    Simplified output window

    The Gradle Console has been replaced with the Build window, which has Sync and Build tabs.

    For details about how to use the new, simplified Build window, see Monitor the build process .

    Batch updates and indexing concurrency

    The Gradle sync and IDE indexing processes are now much more efficient, reducing time wasted on many redundant indexing operations.

    C++ and LLDB

    We have made many quality and performance improvements in the coding, syncing, building, and debugging phases of C++ development. Improvements include the following:

    • If you work with large C++ projects, you should notice a significant improvement in the reduction of time spent building symbols. Sync time is also greatly reduced for large projects.

    • Performance when building and syncing with CMake has been improved through more aggressive reuse of cached results.

    • The addition of formatters ("pretty printers") for more C++ data structures makes LLDB output easier to read.

    • LLDB now works with only Android 4.1 (API level 16) and higher.

    Note: Native debugging with Android Studio 3.0 or greater does not work on 32-bit Windows. If you are using 32-bit Windows and need to debug native code, use Android Studio 2.3.

    Kotlin upgraded to version 1.2.30

    Android Studio 3.1 includes Kotlin version 1.2.30 .

    Kotlin code now analyzed with command-line lint check

    Running lint from the command line now analyzes your Kotlin classes.

    For each project that you would like to run lint on, Google's Maven repository must be included in the top-level build.gradle file. The Maven repository is already included for projects created in Android Studio 3.0 and higher.

    ابزارهای عملکرد

    Sample native C++ processes with CPU Profiler

    The CPU Profiler now includes a default configuration to record sampled traces of your app's native threads. You can use this configuration by deploying your app to a device running Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher and then selecting Sampled (Native) from the CPU Profiler's recording configurations dropdown menu. After that, record and inspect a trace as you normally would.

    You can change default settings, such as the sampling interval, by creating a recording configuration .

    To switch back to tracing your Java threads, select either a Sampled (Java) or Instrumented (Java) configuration.

    Filter CPU traces, memory allocation results, and heap dumps

    The CPU Profiler and Memory Profiler include a search feature that allows you to filter results from recording a method trace, memory allocations, or heap dump.

    To search, click Filterin the top-right corner of the pane, type your query, and press Enter.

    Tip: You can also open the search field by pressing Control + F (Command + F on Mac).

    In the CPU Profiler's Flame Chart tab, call stacks that include methods related to your search query are highlighted and moved to the left side of the chart.

    For more information on filtering by method, class, or package name, see Record and inspect method traces .

    Request tab in the Network Profiler

    The Network Profiler now includes a Request tab that provides details about network requests during the selected timeline. In previous versions, the Network Profiler only provided information about network responses.

    Thread View in the Network Profiler

    After selecting a portion of the timeline in the Network Profiler , you can select one of the following tabs to see more detail about the network activity during that timeframe:

    • Connection View : Provides the same information as previous versions of Android Studio—it lists files that were sent or received during the selected portion of the timeline across all of your app's CPU threads. For each request, you can inspect the size, type, status, and transmission duration.
    • Thread View : Displays network activity of each of your app's CPU threads. This view allows you to inspect which of your app's threads are responsible for each network request.

    Layout Inspector

    The Layout Inspector gained new features, including some functionality previously provided by the deprecated Hierarchy Viewer and Pixel Perfect tools:

    • Zoom buttons and keyboard shortcuts for navigating and inspecting layouts
    • Reference grid overlay
    • Ability to load a reference image and use it as an overlay (useful for comparing your layout with a UI mockup)
    • Render subtree preview to isolate a view in a complex layout

    ویرایشگر چیدمان

    The Palette in the Layout Editor has received many improvements:

    • Reorganization of categories for views and layouts.
    • New Common category for views and layouts, which you can add to with a Favorite command.
    • Improved search for views and layouts .
    • New commands for opening documentation for a specific view or layout element.

    You can use the new Convert view command in the Component tree or design editor to convert a view or layout to another type of view or layout.

    You can now easily create constraints to items near the selected view using the new Create a connection buttons in the view inspector at the top of the Attributes window.

    Run and Instant Run

    The behavior of the Use same selection for future launches option in the Select deployment target dialog has been made more consistent. If the Use same selection option is enabled, then the Select deployment target dialog opens only the first time that you use the Run command until the selected device is no longer connected.

    When targeting a device running Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher, Instant Run can deploy changes to resources without causing an application restart. This is possible because the resources are contained in a split APK.

    شبیه ساز

    For details of what's new and changed in the emulator since Android Studio 3.0, see the Android Emulator release notes from version 27.0.2 through version 27.1.12 .

    Major improvements include the following:

    • Quick Boot snapshots for saving of emulator state and faster start, with the ability to use the Save now command to save a custom start state.
    • Windowless emulator screen.
    • System images for Android 8.0 (API level 26), Android 8.1 (API level 27), and Android P Developer Preview.

    User interface and user experience improvements

    More tooltips, keyboard shortcuts, and helpful messages

    We have added tooltips and helpful message overlays in many places throughout Android Studio.

    To see keyboard shortcuts for many commands, just hold the mouse pointer over a button until the tooltip appears.

    Tools > Android menu removed

    The Tools > Android menu has been removed. Commands that were previously under this menu have been moved.

    • Many commands moved to directly under the Tools menu.
    • The Sync project with gradle files command moved to the File menu.
    • The Device Monitor command has been removed, as described below.

    Device Monitor available from the command line

    In Android Studio 3.1, the Device Monitor serves less of a role than it previously did. In many cases, the functionality available through the Device Monitor is now provided by new and improved tools.

    See the Device Monitor documentation for instructions for invoking the Device Monitor from the command line and for details of the tools available through the Device Monitor.

    3.0 (October 2017)

    Android Studio 3.0.0 is a major release that includes a variety of new features and improvements.

    macOS users: If you are updating an older version of Android Studio, you may encounter an update error dialog that says "Some conflicts were found in the installation area". Simply ignore this error and click Cancel to resume the installation.

    3.0.1 (November 2017)

    This is a minor update to Android Studio 3.0 that includes general bug fixes and performance improvements.

    Android Plugin for Gradle 3.0.0

    The new Android plugin for Gradle includes a variety of improvements and new features, but it primarily improves build performance for projects that have a large number of modules. When using the new plugin with these large projects, you should experience the following:

    • Faster build configuration times due to new delayed dependency resolution.
    • Variant-aware dependency resolution for only the projects and variants you are building.
    • Faster incremental build times when applying simple changes to code or resources.

    Note: These improvements required significant changes that break some of the plugin's behaviors, DSL, and APIs. Upgrading to version 3.0.0 might require changes to your build files and Gradle plugins.

    This version also includes the following:

    • Support for Android 8.0.
    • Support for building separate APKs based on language resources.
    • Support for Java 8 libraries and Java 8 language features (without the Jack compiler).
    • Support for Android Test Support Library 1.0 (Android Test Utility and Android Test Orchestrator ).
    • Improved ndk-build and cmake build speeds.
    • Improved Gradle sync speed.
    • AAPT2 is now enabled by default.
    • Using ndkCompile is now more restricted. You should instead migrate to using either CMake or ndk-build to compile native code that you want to package into your APK. To learn more, read Migrate from ndkcompile .

    For more information about what's changed, see the Android Plugin for Gradle release notes .

    If you're ready to upgrade to the new plugin, see Migrate to Android Plugin for Gradle 3.0.0 .

    پشتیبانی کاتلین

    As announced at Google I/O 2017 , the Kotlin programming language is now officially supported on Android. So with this release, Android Studio includes Kotlin language support for Android development.

    You can incorporate Kotlin into your project by converting a Java file to Kotlin (click Code > Convert Java File to Kotlin File ) or by creating a new Kotlin- enabled project using the New Project wizard.

    To get started, read how to add Kotlin to your project .

    Java 8 language features support

    You can now use certain Java 8 language features and consume libraries built with Java 8. Jack is no longer required , and you should first disable Jack to use the improved Java 8 support built into the default toolchain.

    To update your project to support the new Java 8 language toolchain, update the Source Compatibility and Target Compatibility to 1.8 in the Project Structure dialog (click File > Project Structure ). To learn more, read how to use Java 8 language features .

    Android Profiler

    The new Android Profiler replaces the Android Monitor tool and provides a new suite of tools to measure your app's CPU, memory, and network usage in realtime. You can perform sample-based method tracing to time your code execution, capture heap dumps, view memory allocations, and inspect the details of network-transmitted files.

    To open, click View > Tool Windows > Android Profiler (or click Android Profiler in the toolbar).

    The event timeline at the top of the window shows touch events, key presses, and activity changes so you have more context to understand other performance events in the timeline.

    Note: The Logcat view also moved to a separate window (it was previously inside Android Monitor, which was removed).

    From the Android Profiler's overview timeline, click on the CPU , MEMORY , or NETWORK timelines to access the corresponding profiler tools.

    پروفایل CPU

    The CPU Profiler helps you analyze the CPU thread usage of your app by triggering a sample or instrumented CPU trace. Then, you can troubleshoot CPU performance issues using a variety of data views and filters.

    For more information, see the CPU Profiler guide .

    نمایه کننده حافظه

    The Memory Profiler helps you identify memory leaks and memory churn that can lead to stutter, freezes, and even app crashes. It shows a realtime graph of your app's memory use, lets you capture a heap dump, force garbage collections, and track memory allocations.

    For more information, see the Memory Profiler guide .

    Network Profiler

    The Network Profiler allows you to monitor the network activity of your app, inspect the payload of each of your network requests, and link back to the code that generated the network request.

    For more information, see the Network Profiler guide .

    APK profiling and debugging

    Android Studio now allows you to profile and debug any APK without having to build it from an Android Studio project—as long as the APK is built to enable debugging and you have access to the debug symbols and source files.

    To get started, click Profile or debug APK from the Android Studio Welcome screen. Or, if you already have a project open, click File > Profile or debug APK from the menu bar. This displays the unpacked APK files, but it does not decompile the code. So, to properly add breakpoints and view stack traces, you need to attach Java source files and native debug symbols.

    For more information, see Profile and Debug Pre-built APKs .

    Device File Explorer

    The new Device File Explorer allows you to inspect your connected device's filesystem, and transfer files between the device and your computer. This replaces the filesystem tool available in DDMS.

    To open, click View > Tool Windows > Device File Explorer .

    For more information, see the Device File Explorer guide .

    Instant Apps support

    New support for Android Instant Apps allows you to create Instant Apps in your project using two new module types : Instant App modules and Feature modules (these require that you install the Instant Apps Development SDK ).

    Android Studio also includes a new modularize refactoring action to help you add support for Instant Apps in an existing project. For example, if you want to refactor your project to place some classes in an Instant App feature module, select the classes in the Project window and click Refactor > Modularize . In the dialog that appears, select the module where the classes should go and click OK .

    And when you're ready to test your Instant App, you can build and run your Instant App module on a connected device by specifying the Instant App's URL within the run configuration launch options : Select Run > Edit Configurations , select your Instant App module, and then set the URL under Launch Options .

    For more information, see Android Instant Apps .

    Android Things modules

    New Android Things templates in the New Project and New Module wizards to help you start developing for Android-powered IOT devices.

    For more information, see how to create an Android Things project .

    Adaptive Icons wizard

    Image Asset Studio now supports vector drawables and allows you to create adaptive launcher icons for Android 8.0 while simultaneously creating traditional icons ("Legacy" icons) for older devices.

    To start, right-click on the res folder in your project, and then click New > Image Asset . In the Asset Studio window, select Launcher Icons (Adaptive and Legacy) as the icon type.

    Note: You must set compileSdkVersion to 26 or higher to use adaptive launcher icons.

    For more information, read about Adaptive Icons .

    Support for font resources

    To support the new font resources in Android 8.0, Android Studio includes a font resources selector to help bundle fonts into your app or configure your project to download the fonts on the device (when available). The layout editor can also preview the fonts in your layout.

    To try downloadable fonts, ensure that your device or emulator is running Google Play Services v11.2.63 or higher. For more information, read about Downloadable Fonts .

    Firebase App Indexing Assistant

    The Firebase Assistant has been updated with a new tutorial to test App Indexing . To open the Assistant, select Tools > Firebase . Then select App Indexing > Test App Indexing .

    The tutorial includes new buttons to test your public and personal content indexing:

    • In step 2, click Preview search results to verify that your URLs are showing up in Google Search results.
    • In step 3, click Check for errors to verify that the indexable objects in your app have been added to the personal content index.

    The App Links Assistant has been updated with the following new capabilities:

    • Add URL tests for each URL mapping to be sure your intent filters handle real-world URLs.

      You can also define these URL tests by hand using the <tools:validation> tag described below.

    • Create a Digital Asset Links file with the appropriate object entry to support Google Smart Lock , and add the corresponding asset_statements <meta-data> tag to your manifest file.

    URL intent-filter validator

    Android Studio now supports a special tag in the manifest file that allows you to test your intent filter URLs . These are the same tags that the App Links Assistant can create for you .

    To declare a test URL for an intent filter, add a <tools:validation> element alongside the corresponding <intent-filter> element. به عنوان مثال:

          <activity ...>
              <intent-filter>
                  ...
              </intent-filter>
              <tools:validation testUrl="https://www.example.com/recipe/1138" />
          </activity>
        
        

    Be sure to also include xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" in the <manifest> tag.

    If any one of the test URLs does not pass the intent filter definition, a lint error appears. Such an error still allows you to build debug variants, but it will break your release builds.

    ویرایشگر چیدمان

    The Layout Editor has been updated with a number of enhancements, including the following:

    • New toolbar layout and icons.
    • Updated layout in the component tree.
    • Improved drag-and-drop view insertions.
    • New error panel below the editor, showing all issues with suggestions to fix (if available).
    • Various UI enhancements for building with ConstraintLayout , including the following:
      • New support to create barriers .
      • New support to create groups: In the toolbar, select Guidelines > Add Group (requires ConstraintLayout 1.1.0 beta 2 or higher)
      • New UI to create chains: Select multiple views, and then right-click and select Chain .

    Layout Inspector

    The Layout Inspector includes enhancements to make it easier to debug issues with your app layouts, including grouping properties into common categories and new search functionality in both the View Tree and the Properties panes.

    APK Analyzer

    You can now use the APK Analyzer from the command line with the apkanalyzer tool.

    The APK Analyzer has also been updated with the following improvements:

    • For APKs built with ProGuard, you can load ProGuard mapping files that add capabilities to the DEX viewer, including:
      • Bolded nodes to indicate that the nodes should not be removed when shrinking code.
      • A button to show nodes that were removed during the shrinking process.
      • A button that restores the original names of nodes in the tree view that were obfuscated by ProGuard.
    • The DEX Viewer now shows the estimated size impact of each package, class and method.
    • New filtering options at the top to show and hide fields and methods.
    • In the tree view, nodes that are references not defined in the DEX file appear in italics.

    For more information, see Analyze Your Build with APK Analyzer .

    Preview for D8 DEX compiler

    Android Studio 3.0 includes an optional new DEX compiler called D8. It will eventually replace the DX compiler, but you can opt-in to use the new D8 compiler now.

    DEX compilation directly impacts your app's build time, .dex file size, and runtime performance. And when comparing the new D8 compiler with the current DX compiler, D8 compiles faster and outputs smaller .dex files, while having the same or better app runtime performance.

    To try it, set the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

    android.enableD8=true
        

    For more information, see the blog post about the D8 compiler .

    Google's Maven repository

    Android Studio now uses Google's Maven Repository by default instead of depending on the Android SDK Manager to get updates for Android Support Library, Google Play Services, Firebase, and other dependencies. This makes it easier to keep your libraries up to date, especially when using a continuous integration (CI) system.

    All new projects now include the Google Maven repository by default. To update your existing project, add google() in the repositories block of the top-level build.gradle file:

          allprojects {
              repositories {
                  google()
              }
          }
        
        

    Learn more about Google's Maven repository here .

          can cause a memory leak if the context is not the application context.
          Lint looks for these initializations, and if it <em>cannot</em> determine
          that the context is the application context, it suggests you use <code><a href="/reference/android/content/Context.html#getApplicationContext()">Context.getApplicationContext()</a></code> to get the proper context for the

          a prefix, such as <code>android { resourcePrefix '<var>my_lib</var>'
          }</code>, and lint makes sure that all of your resources are using this
          prefix. You can use variations of the name for styles and themes. For
          example for the <var>my_lib</var> prefix, you can have themes named
          <code>MyLibTheme</code>, <code>myLibAttr</code>,
          <code>my_lib_layout</code>, and so on.

          be converted to WebP format based on your project’s
          <code>minSdkVersion</code> setting. An associated quickfix can
          automatically convert the images, or you can <a href=
          "/studio/write/convert-webp.html">convert images to WebP</a> manually.
          </li>
          <li>Unsafe WebP: If your project already includes WebP images, this check
          analyzes your project to ensure that your <code>minSdkVersion</code>
          setting is high enough to support the included images. For more
          information about WebP support in Android and Android Studio, see

      Changes

    <ul>
      <li>A separate button to push changes with Instant Run: After deploying your
      app, you now click <b>Apply Changes</b> <img src=
      "/studio/images/buttons/toolbar-apply-changes.svg" alt="" class=
      "inline-icon"> to quickly push incremental changes to your running app using
      Instant Run. The <b>Run</b> <img src="/studio/images/buttons/toolbar-run.png"
        alt="" class="inline-icon"> and <b>Debug</b> <img src=
        "/studio/images/buttons/toolbar-debug.png" alt="" class="inline-icon">
        buttons are always available to you when you want to reliably push your
        changes and force an app restart.
        <ul>
          <li>Instant Run is supported only when deploying your app to a target
          device running Android 5.0 (API level 21) or higher.
          </li>
          <li>Instant Run is no longer disabled for projects that <a href=
          "/studio/projects/add-native-code.html">link to external native
          projects</a> using CMake or ndk-build. However, you can only use Instant
          Run to push incremental changes to your Java code, not your native code.
          </li>
          <li>Cold swaps (which you can force for a running app by clicking
          <strong>Run</strong> <img src="/studio/images/buttons/toolbar-run.png"
          alt="" class="inline-icon">) are now more reliable. Forcing a cold swap
          also fixes the issue where changes to notification and widget UIs were
          not updated on the target device.
          </li>
          <li>Includes optimizations that make app startup much faster. These
          optimizations may affect profiling, so you should temporarily <a href=

    <p class="note">
      <b>Known issue:</b> Some device manufacturers block apps from automatically
      launching after being installed on the device. When deploying your app to a
      physical device using Android Studio 2.3, this restriction breaks the
      intended behavior of Instant Run and causes the following error output:
      <code>Error: Not found; no service started</code>. To avoid this issue,
      either <a href="/studio/run/emulator.html">use the emulator</a> or enable
      automatic launching for your app in your device's settings. The procedure
      for doing this is different for each device, so check the instructions
      provided by the manufacturer. To learn more about this issue, see

    2.1 (April 2016)

    The primary changes in this update provide support for development with the Android N Preview.

    2.1.3 (August 2016)

    This update adds compatibility with Gradle 2.14.1, which includes performance improvements, new features, and an important security fix . For more details, see the Gradle release notes .

    By default, new projects in Android Studio 2.1.3 use Gradle 2.14.1. For existing projects, the IDE prompts you to upgrade to Gradle 2.14.1 and Android plugin for Gradle 2.1.3 , which is required when using Gradle 2.14.1 and higher.

    2.1.2 (June 2016)

    This update includes a number of small changes and bug fixes:

    • Instant Run updates and bug fixes.
    • Improvements to LLDB performance and crash notifications.
    • Fixed a regression in the Android Studio 2.1.1 security update that caused git rebase to fail.

    2.1.1 (May 2016)

    Security release update.

    The Android N platform adds support for Java 8 language features , which require a new experimental compiler called Jack. The latest version of Jack is currently supported only in Android Studio 2.1. So if you want to use Java 8 language features, you need to use Android Studio 2.1 to build your app.

    Note: Instant Run is disabled when you enable the Jack compiler because they currently are not compatible.

    Although Android Studio 2.1 is now stable, the Jack compiler is still experimental and you must enable it with the jackOptions property in your build.gradle file.

    Other than the changes to support the N Preview, Android Studio 2.1 includes minor bug fixes and the following enhancements:

    • The Java-aware C++ debugger is now enabled by default when you're using an N device or emulator and select Native debugger mode (in the Debugger tab for your run/debug configuration).

    For other build enhancements, including incremental Java compilation and dexing-in-process,update your Android plugin for Gradle to version 2.1.0.

    2.0 (April 2016)

    Note: If you are developing for the N Developer Preview, you should use Android Studio 2.1 Preview. Android Studio 2.0 does not support all the features required to target the N Preview.

    Instant Run :

    • Android Studio now deploys clean builds faster than ever before. Additionally, pushing incremental code changes to the emulator or a physical device is now almost instantaneous. Review your updates without redeploying a new debug build or, in many cases, without restarting the app.
    • Instant Run supports pushing the following changes to a running app:
      • Changes to the implementation of an existing instance method or static method
      • Changes to an existing app resource
      • Changes to structural code, such as a method signature or a static field (requires a target device running API level 21 or higher).
    • Read the documentation to learn more about Instant Run .

      Note: Instant Run is supported only when you deploy the debug build variant, use Android plugin for Gradle version 2.0.0 or higher, and configure your app's module-level build.gradle file for minSdkVersion 15 or higher. For the best performance, configure your app for minSdkVersion 21 or higher.

    New additions to Lint:

    • Inspection of switch statements using @IntDef annotated integers to make sure all constants are handled. To quickly add any missing statements, use the intention action drop-down menu and select Add Missing @IntDef Constants .
    • Flags for incorrect attempts to use string interpolation to insert version numbers in the build.gradle file.
    • Flags for anonymous classes that extend the Fragment class.
    • Flags for native code in unsafe locations, such as the res/ and asset/ folders. This flag encourages storing native code in the libs/ folder, which is then securely packaged into the application's data/app-lib/ folder at install time. AOSP: #169950
    • Flags for unsafe calls to Runtime.load() and System.load() calls. AOSP: #179980
    • Find and remove any unused resources by selecting Refactor > Remove Unused Resources from the menu bar. Unused resource detection now supports resources only referenced by unused resources, references in raw files such as .html image references, and tools:keep and tools:discard attributes used by the Gradle resource shrinker, while considering inactive source sets (such as resources used in other build flavors) and properly handling static field imports.
    • Checks that implicit API references are supported on all platforms targeted by minSdkVersion .
    • Flags improper usage of RecyclerView and Parcelable .

    Android Studio v0.2.x (July 2013)

    • 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.
    • Android Gradle plug-in updated to 0.5.0.

      Caution: 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 Gradle <project_name> project refresh failed.

      The updated Gradle plug-in includes the following changes:

      • 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 variant.packageApplication or variant.zipAlign
      • Fixed dependency resolution so that we resolved the combination of (default config, build types, flavor(s)) together instead of separately.
      • Fixed dependency for tests of library project to properly include all the dependencies of the library itself.
      • Fixed case where two dependencies have the same leaf name.
      • Fixed issue where Proguard rules file cannot be applied on flavors.

      All Gradle plugin release notes are available are here: http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system .

    • Gradle errors from aapt no longer point to merged output files in the build/ folder, they point back to the real source locations.
    • Parallel Builds. It's now possible to use Gradle's parallel builds. Please be aware that parallel builds are in "incubation" (see Gradle's documentation .) This feature is off by default. To enable it, go to Preferences > Compiler and check the box Compile independent modules in parallel .
    • Further work on the new resource repository used for layout rendering, resource folding in the editor, and more:
      • Basic support for .aar library dependencies (eg using a library without a local copy of the sources). Still not working for resource XML validation and navigation in source editors.
      • Cycle detection in resource references.
      • 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.
      • Fixes to handle updating the merged resources when the set of module dependencies change.
      • XML rendering fixes to properly handle character entity declarations and XML and unicode escapes.
    • Save screenshot support for the layout preview and layout editor windows.
    • Template bug fixes.

    Older releases of Android Gradle Plugin

    3.6.0 (February 2020)

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    3.6.4 (July 2020)

    This minor update supports compatibility with new default settings and features for package visibility in Android 11 .

    See the 4.0.1 release notes for details.

    ویژگی های جدید

    This version of the Android Gradle plugin includes the following new features.

    View Binding

    View binding provides compile-time safety when referencing views in your code. You can now replace findViewById() with the auto-generated binding class reference. To start using View binding, include the following in each module's build.gradle file:

          android {
              viewBinding.enabled = true
          }
          
          android {
              viewBinding.enabled = true
          }
          

    To learn more, read the View Binding documentation .

    Support for the Maven Publish plugin

    The Android Gradle plugin includes support for the Maven Publish Gradle plugin , which allows you to publish build artifacts to an Apache Maven repository. The Android Gradle plugin creates a component for each build variant artifact in your app or library module that you can use to customize a publication to a Maven repository.

    To learn more, go to the page about how to use the Maven Publish plugin .

    New default packaging tool

    When building the debug version of your app, the plugin uses a new packaging tool, called zipflinger , to build your APK. This new tool should provide build speed improvements. If the new packaging tool doesn't work as you expect, please report a bug . You can revert to using the old packaging tool by including the following in your gradle.properties file:

            android.useNewApkCreator=false
          
    Native build attribution

    You can now determine the length of time it takes Clang to build and link each C/C++ file in your project. Gradle can output a Chrome trace that contains timestamps for these compiler events so you can better understand the time required to build your project. To output this build attribution file, do the following:

    1. Add the flag -Pandroid.enableProfileJson=true when running a Gradle build. به عنوان مثال:

      gradlew assembleDebug -Pandroid.enableProfileJson=true

    2. Open the Chrome browser and type chrome://tracing in the search bar.

    3. Click the Load button and navigate to <var>project-root</var>/build/android-profile to find the file. The file is named profile-<var>timestamp</var>.json.gz .

    You can see the native build attribution data near the top of the viewer:

    Native build attribution trace in Chrome

    تغییر رفتار

    When using this version of the plugin, you might encounter the following changes in behavior.

    Native libraries packaged uncompressed by default

    When you build your app, the plugin now sets extractNativeLibs to "false" by default. That is, your native libraries are page aligned and packaged uncompressed. While this results in a larger upload size, your users benefit from the following:

    • Smaller app install size because the platform can access the native libraries directly from the installed APK, without creating a copy of the libraries.
    • Smaller download size because Play Store compression is typically better when you include uncompressed native libraries in your APK or Android App Bundle.

    If you want the Android Gradle plugin to instead package compressed native libraries, include the following in your app's manifest:

            <application
              android:extractNativeLibs="true"
              ... >
            </application>
            
          

    Note: The extractNativeLibs manifest attribute has been replaced by the useLegacyPackaging DSL option. For more information, see the release note Use the DSL to package compressed native libraries .

    Default NDK version

    If you download multiple versions of the NDK, the Android Gradle plugin now selects a default version to use in compiling your source code files. Previously, the plugin selected the latest downloaded version of the NDK. Use the android.ndkVersion property in the module's build.gradle file to override the plugin-selected default.

    Simplified R class generation

    The Android Gradle plugin simplifies the compile classpath by generating only one R class for each library module in your project and sharing those R classes with other module dependencies. This optimization should result in faster builds, but it requires that you keep the following in mind:

    • Because the compiler shares R classes with upstream module dependencies, it's important that each module in your project uses a unique package name.
    • The visibility of a library's R class to other project dependencies is determined by the configuration used to include the library as a dependency. For example, if Library A includes Library B as an 'api' dependency, Library A and other libraries that depend on Library A have access to Library B's R class. However, other libraries might not have access to Library B's R class. If Library A uses the implementation dependency configuration. To learn more, read about dependency configurations .
    Remove resources missing from default configuration

    For Library modules, if you include a resource for a language that you do not include in the default set of resources—for example, if you include hello_world as a string resource in /values-es/strings.xml but you don't define that resource in /values/strings.xml —the Android Gradle plugin no longer includes that resource when compiling your project. This behavior change should result in fewer Resource Not Found runtime exceptions and improved build speed.

    D8 now respects CLASS retention policy for annotations

    When compiling your app, D8 now respects when annotations apply a CLASS retention policy, and those annotations are no longer available at runtime. This behavior also exists when setting the app's target SDK to API level 23, which previously allowed access to these annotations during runtime when compiling your app using older versions of the Android Gradle plugin and D8.

    Other behavior changes
    • aaptOptions.noCompress is no longer case sensitive on all platforms (for both APK and bundles) and respects paths that use uppercase characters.
    • Data binding is now incremental by default. To learn more, see issue #110061530 .

    • All unit tests, including Roboelectric unit tests, are now fully cacheable. To learn more, see issue #115873047 .

    رفع اشکال

    This version of the Android Gradle plugin includes the following bug fixes:

    • Robolectric unit tests are now supported in library modules that use data binding. To learn more, see issue #126775542 .
    • You can now run connectedAndroidTest tasks across multiple modules while Gradle's parallel execution mode is enabled.

    مسائل شناخته شده

    This section describes known issues that exist in Android Gradle plugin 3.6.0.

    Slow performance of Android Lint task

    Android Lint can take much longer to complete on some projects due to a regression in its parsing infrastructure, resulting in slower computation of inferred types for lambdas in certain code constructs.

    The issue is reported as a bug in IDEA and will be fixed in Android Gradle Plugin 4.0.

    Missing Manifest class {:#agp-missing-manifest}

    If your app defines custom permissions in its manifest, the Android Gradle plugin typically generates a Manifest.java class that includes your custom permissions as string constants. The plugin packages this class with your app, so you can more easily reference those permissions at runtime.

    Generating the manifest class is broken in Android Gradle plugin 3.6.0. If you build your app with this version of the plugin, and it references the manifest class, you might see a ClassNotFoundException exception. To resolve this issue, do one of the following:

    • Reference your custom permissions by their fully-qualified name. For example, "com.example.myapp.permission.DEADLY_ACTIVITY" .

    • Define your own constants, as shown below:

                  public final class CustomPermissions {
                    public static final class permission {
                      public static final String DEADLY_ACTIVITY="com.example.myapp.permission.DEADLY_ACTIVITY";
                    }
                  }
                  
                

    3.5.0 (August 2019)

    Android Gradle plugin 3.5.0, along with Android Studio 3.5 , is a major release and a result of Project Marble, which is a focus on improving three main areas of the Android developer tools: system health, feature polish, and fixing bugs. Notably, improving project build speed was a main focus for this update.

    For information about these and other Project Marble updates, read the Android Developers blog post or the sections below.

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    3.5.4 (July 2020)

    This minor update supports compatibility with new default settings and features for package visibility in Android 11 .

    See the 4.0.1 release notes for details.

    3.5.3 (December 2019)

    This minor update supports Android Studio 3.5.3 and includes various bug fixes and performance improvements.

    3.5.2 (November 2019)

    3.5.1 (October 2019)

    This minor update supports Android Studio 3.5.1 and includes various bug fixes and performance improvements. To see a list of noteable bug fixes, read the related post on the Release Updates blog .

    Incremental annotation processing

    The Data Binding annotation processor supports incremental annotation processing if you set android.databinding.incremental=true in your gradle.properties file. This optimization results in improved incremental build performance. For a full list of optimized annotation processors, refer to the table of incremental annotation processors .

    Additionally, KAPT 1.3.30 and higher also support incremental annotation processors, which you can enable by including kapt.incremental.apt=true in your gradle.properties file.

    Cacheable unit tests

    When you enable unit tests to use Android resources, assets, and manifests by setting includeAndroidResources to true , the Android Gradle plugin generates a test config file containing absolute paths, which breaks cache relocatability. You can instruct the plugin to instead generate the test config using relative paths, which allows the AndroidUnitTest task to be fully cacheable, by including the following in your gradle.properties file:

          android.testConfig.useRelativePath = true
        

    مسائل شناخته شده

    • When using Kotlin Gradle plugin 1.3.31 or earlier, you might see the following warning when building or syncing your project:

                WARNING: API 'variant.getPackageLibrary()' is obsolete and has been replaced
                        with 'variant.getPackageLibraryProvider()'.
                
              

      To resolve this issue , upgrade the plugin to version 1.3.40 or higher.

    ویژگی های جدید

    • New lint check dependency configurations: The behavior of lintChecks has changed and a new dependency configuration, lintPublish , has been introduced to give you more control over which lint checks are packaged in your Android libraries.

      • lintChecks : This is an existing configuration that you should use for lint checks you want to only run when building your project locally. If you were previously using the lintChecks dependency configuration to include lint checks in the published AAR, you need to migrate those dependencies to instead use the new lintPublish configuration described below.
      • lintPublish : Use this new configuration in library projects for lint checks you want to include in the published AAR, as shown below. This means that projects that consume your library also apply those lint checks.

      The following code sample uses both dependency configurations in a local Android library project.

      dependencies {
        // Executes lint checks from the ':lint' project at build time.
        lintChecks project(':lint')
        // Packages lint checks from the ':lintpublish' in the published AAR.
        lintPublish project(':lintpublish')
      }
              
      dependencies {
        // Executes lint checks from the ':lint' project at build time.
        lintChecks(project(":lint"))
        // Packages lint checks from the ':lintpublish' in the published AAR.
        lintPublish(project(":lintpublish"))
          }

    • Android Instant Apps Feature plugin deprecation warning: If you're still using the com.android.feature plugin to build your instant app, Android Gradle plugin 3.4.0 will give throw you a deprecation warning. To make sure you can still build you instant app on future versions of the plugin, migrate your instant app to using the dynamic feature plugin , which also allows you to publish both your installed and instant app experiences from a single Android App Bundle.

    • R8 enabled by default: R8 integrates desugaring, shrinking, obfuscating, optimizing, and dexing all in one step—resulting in noticeable build performance improvements . R8 was introduced in Android Gradle plugin 3.3.0 and is now enabled by default for both app and Android library projects using plugin 3.4.0 and higher.

    The image below provides a high-level overview of the compile process before R8 was introduced.

    Before R8, ProGuard was a different compile step from dexing and
              desugaring.

    Now, with R8, desugaring, shrinking, obfuscating, optimizing, and dexing (D8) are all completed in one step, as illustrated below.

    With R8, desugaring, shrinking, obfuscating, optimizing, and
      dexing are all performed in a single compile step.

    Keep in mind, R8 is designed to work with your existing ProGuard rules, so you'll likely not need to take any actions to benefit from R8. However, because it's a different technology to ProGuard that's designed specifically for Android projects, shrinking and optimization may result in removing code that ProGuard may have not. So, in this unlikely situation, you might need to add additional rules to keep that code in your build output.

    If you experience issues using R8, read the R8 compatibility FAQ to check if there's a solution to your issue. If a solution isn't documented, please report a bug . You can disable R8 by adding one of the following lines to your project's gradle.properties file:

          # Disables R8 for Android Library modules only.
          android.enableR8.libraries = false
          # Disables R8 for all modules.
          android.enableR8 = false
          
        

    Note: For a given build type, if you set useProguard to false in your app module's build.gradle file, the Android Gradle plugin uses R8 to shrink your app's code for that build type, regardless of whether you disable R8 in your project's gradle.properties فایل gradle.properties

    • ndkCompile is deprecated: You now get a build error if you try to use ndkBuild to compile your native libraries. You should instead use either CMake or ndk-build to Add C and C++ code to your project .

    • The correct usage of unique package names are currently not enforced but will become more strict on later versions of the plugin. On Android Gradle plugin version 3.4.0, you can opt-in to check whether your project declares acceptable package names by adding the line below to your gradle.properties file.

                android.uniquePackageNames = true
                
              

      To learn more about setting a package name through the Android Gradle plugin, see Set the application ID .

    3.3.0 (January 2019)

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    3.3.3 (July 2020)

    This minor update supports compatibility with new default settings and features for package visibility in Android 11 .

    See the 4.0.1 release notes for details.

    3.3.2 (March 2019)

    This minor update supports Android Studio 3.3.2 and includes various bug fixes and performance improvements. To see a list of noteable bug fixes, read the related post on the Release Updates blog .

    3.3.1 (February 2019)

    This minor update supports Android Studio 3.3.1 and includes various bug fixes and performance improvements.

    ویژگی های جدید

    • Improved classpath synchronization: When resolving dependencies on your runtime and compile time classpaths, the Android Gradle plugin attempts to fix certain downstream version conflicts for dependencies that appear across multiple classpaths.

      For example, if the runtime classpath includes Library A version 2.0 and the compile classpath includes Library A version 1.0, the plugin automatically updates the dependency on the compile classpath to Library A version 2.0 to avoid errors.

      However, if the runtime classpath includes Library A version 1.0 and the compile includes Library A version 2.0, the plugin does not downgrade the dependency on the compile classpath to Library A version 1.0, and you will get an error. To learn more, see Fix conflicts between classpaths .

    • Improved incremental Java compilation when using annotation processors: This update decreases build time by improving support for incremental Java compilation when using annotation processors.

      Note: This feature is compatible with Gradle 4.10.1 and higher, except Gradle 5.1 due to Gradle issue 8194 .

      • For projects using Kapt (most Kotlin-only projects and Kotlin-Java hybrid projects): Incremental Java compilation is enabled, even when you use data binding or the retro-lambda plugin. Annotation processing by the Kapt task is not yet incremental.

      • For projects not using Kapt (Java-only projects): If the annotation processors you use all support incremental annotation processing , incremental Java compilation is enabled by default. To monitor incremental annotation processor adoption, watch Gradle issue 5277 .

        If, however, one or more annotation processors do not support incremental builds, incremental Java compilation is not enabled. Instead, you can include the following flag in your gradle.properties file:

        android.enableSeparateAnnotationProcessing=true
                    

        When you include this flag, the Android Gradle plugin executes the annotation processors in a separate task and allows the Java compilation task to run incrementally.

    • Better debug info when using obsolete API: When the plugin detects that you're using an API that's no longer supported, it can now provide more-detailed information to help you determine where that API is being used. To see the additional info, you need to include the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

                android.debug.obsoleteApi=true
              

      You can also enable the flag by passing -Pandroid.debug.obsoleteApi=true from the command line.

    • You can run instrumentation tests on feature modules from the command line.

    تغییر رفتار

    • Lazy task configuration: The plugin now uses Gradle's new task creation API to avoid initializing and configuring tasks that are not required to complete the current build (or tasks not on the execution task graph). For example, if you have multiple build variants, such as “release” and “debug” build variants, and you're building the “debug” version of your app, the plugin avoids initializing and configuring tasks for the “release” version of برنامه شما

      Calling certain older methods in the Variants API, such as variant.getJavaCompile() , might still force task configuration. To make sure that your build is optimized for lazy task configuration, invoke new methods that instead return a TaskProvider object, such as variant.getJavaCompileProvider() .

      If you execute custom build tasks, learn how to adapt to Gradle's new task-creation API .

    • For a given build type, when setting useProguard false , the plugin now uses R8 instead of ProGuard to shrink and obfuscate your app's code and resources. To learn more about R8, read this blog post from the Android Developer's Blog.

    • Faster R class generation for library projects: Previously, the Android Gradle plugin would generate an R.java file for each of your project's dependencies and then compile those R classes alongside your app's other classes. The plugin now generates a JAR containing your app's compiled R class directly, without first building intermediate R.java classes. This optimization may significantly improve build performance for projects that include many library subprojects and dependencies, and improve the indexing speed in Android Studio.

    • When building an Android App Bundle , APKs generated from that app bundle that target Android 6.0 (API level 23) or higher now include uncompressed versions of your native libraries by default. This optimization avoids the need for the device to make a copy of the library and thus reduces the on-disk size of your app. If you'd rather disable this optimization, add the following to your gradle.properties file:

      android.bundle.enableUncompressedNativeLibs = false
              
    • The plugin enforces minimum versions of some third-party plugins.

    • Single-variant project sync : Syncing your project with your build configuration is an important step in letting Android Studio understand how your project is structured. However, this process can be time-consuming for large projects. If your project uses multiple build variants, you can now optimize project syncs by limiting them to only the variant you have currently selected.

      You need to use Android Studio 3.3 or higher with Android Gradle Plugin 3.3.0 or higher to enable this optimization. When you meet these requirements, the IDE prompts you to enable this optimization when you sync your project. The optimization is also enabled by default on new projects.

      To enable this optimization manually, click File > Settings > Experimental > Gradle ( Android Studio > Preferences > Experimental > Gradle on a Mac) and select the Only sync the active variant checkbox.

      Note : This optimization fully supports projects that include Java and C++ languages, and has some support for Kotlin. When enabling the optimization for projects with Kotlin content, Gradle sync falls back to using full variants internally.

      • Clashes due to androidx-rs.jar including statically bundled annotation.AnyRes
      • When using RenderScript, you no longer have to manually set the Build Tools version in your build.gradle files

    3.2.0 (September 2018)

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    3.2.1 (October 2018)

    With this update, you no longer need to specify a version for the SDK Build Tools. The Android Gradle plugin now uses version 28.0.3 by default.

    ویژگی های جدید

    • Support for building Android App Bundles: The app bundle is a new upload format that includes all your app's compiled code and resources while deferring APK generation and signing to the Google Play Store. You no longer have to build, sign, and manage multiple APKs, and users get smaller downloads that are optimized for their device. To learn more, read About Android App Bundles .

    • Support for improved incremental build speeds when using annotation processors: The AnnotationProcessorOptions DSL now extends CommandLineArgumentProvider , which enables either you or the annotation processor author to annotate arguments for the processor using incremental build property type annotations . Using these annotations improves the correctness and performance of incremental and cached clean builds. To learn more, read Pass arguments to annotation processors .

    • Migration tool for AndroidX: When using Android Gradle plugin 3.2.0 with Android 3.2 and higher, you can migrate your project's local and Maven dependencies to use the new AndroidX libraries by selecting Refactor > Migrate to AndroidX from the menu bar. Using this migration tool also sets the following flags to true in your gradle.properties file:

      • android.useAndroidX : When set to true , the Android plugin uses the appropriate AndroidX library instead of a Support Library. When this flag is not specified, the plugin sets it to false by default.

      • android.enableJetifier : When set to true , the Android plugin automatically migrates existing third-party libraries to use AndroidX by rewriting their binaries. When this flag is not specified, the plugin sets it to false by default. You can set this flag to true only while android.useAndroidX is also set to true , otherwise you get a build error.

        To learn more, read the AndroidX overview .

    • New code shrinker, R8: R8 is a new tool for code shrinking and obfuscation that replaces ProGuard. You can start using the preview version of R8 by including the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

              android.enableR8 = true
              
              android.enableR8 = true

    • Desugaring with D8 is now enabled by default.

    • AAPT2 is now on Google's Maven repo. To use AAPT2, make sure that you have the google() dependency in your build.gradle file, as shown below:

                buildscript {
                      repositories {
                          google() // here
                          jcenter()
                      }
                      dependencies {
                          classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0'
                      }
                  }
                  allprojects {
                      repositories {
                          google() // and here
                          jcenter()
                  }
                
                buildscript {
                      repositories {
                          google() // here
                          jcenter()
                      }
                      dependencies {
                          classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0'
                      }
                  }
                  allprojects {
                      repositories {
                          google() // and here
                          jcenter()
                  }
                
    • Native multidex is now enabled by default. Previous versions of Android Studio enabled native multidex when deploying the debug version of an app to a device running Android API level 21 or higher. Now, whether you're deploying to a device or building an APK for release, the Android Gradle plugin enables native multidex for all modules that set minSdkVersion=21 or higher.

    • The plugin now enforces a minimum version of the protobuf plugin (0.8.6), Kotlin plugin (1.2.50), and Crashlytics plugin (1.25.4).

    • The feature module plugin, com.android.feature , now enforces the use of only letters, digits, and underscores when specifying a module name. For example, if your feature module name includes dashes, you get a build error. This behavior matches that of the dynamic feature plugin.

    3.1.0 (March 2018)

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    • Gradle 4.4 or higher.

      To learn more, read the section about updating Gradle .

    • Build Tools 27.0.3 or higher.

      Keep in mind, you no longer need to specify a version for the build tools using the android.buildToolsVersion property—the plugin uses the minimum required version by default.

    New DEX compiler, D8

    By default, Android Studio now uses a new DEX compiler called D8. DEX compilation is the process of transforming .class bytecode into .dex bytecode for the Android Runtime (or Dalvik, for older versions of Android). Compared to the previous compiler, called DX, D8 compiles faster and outputs smaller DEX files, all while having the same or better app runtime performance.

    D8 shouldn't change your day-to-day app development workflow. However, if you experience any issues related to the new compiler, please report a bug . You can temporarily disable D8 and use DX by including the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

          android.enableD8=false
        

    For projects that use Java 8 language features , incremental desugaring is enabled by default. You can disable it by specifying the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

          android.enableIncrementalDesugaring=false.
        

    Preview users: If you're already using a preview version of D8, note that it now compiles against libraries included in the SDK build tools —not the JDK. So, if you are accessing APIs that exist in the JDK but not in the SDK build tools libraries, you get a compile error.

    • When building multiple APKs that each target a different ABI, the no longer generates APKs for the following ABIs by default: mips , mips64 , and armeabi .

      If you want to build APKs that target these ABIs, you must use NDK r16b or lower and specify the ABIs in your build.gradle file, as shown below:

                splits {
                    abi {
                        include 'armeabi', 'mips', 'mips64'
                        ...
                    }
                }
              
                splits {
                    abi {
                        include("armeabi", "mips", "mips64")
                        ...
                    }
                }
              
    • The Android plugin's build cache now evicts cache entries that are older than 30 days.

    • Passing "auto" to resConfig no longer automatically picks string resources to package into your APK. If you continue to use "auto" , the plugin packages all string resources your app and its dependencies provide. So, you should instead specify each locale that you want the plugin to package into your APK.

    • Because local modules can't depend on your app's test APK, adding dependencies to your instrumented tests using the androidTestApi configuration, instead of androidTestImplementation , causes Gradle to issue the following warning:

              WARNING: Configuration 'androidTestApi' is obsolete
              and has been replaced with 'androidTestImplementation'
              
              WARNING: Configuration 'androidTestApi' is obsolete

    3.0.0 (October 2017)

    Android Gradle plugin 3.0.0 includes a variety of changes that aim to address performance issues of large projects.

    For example, on a sample skeleton project with ~130 modules and a large number of external dependencies (but no code or resources), you can experience performance improvements similar to the following:

    Android plugin version + Gradle version Android plugin 2.2.0 + Gradle 2.14.1 Android plugin 2.3.0 + Gradle 3.3 Android plugin 3.0.0 + Gradle 4.1
    Configuration (eg running ./gradlew --help ) ~2 mins ~9 s ~2.5 s
    1-line Java change (implementation change) ~2 mins 15 s ~29 s ~6.4 s

    Some of these changes break existing builds. So, you should consider the\ effort of migrating your project before using the new plugin.

    If you don't experience the performance improvements described above, please file a bug and include a trace of your build using the Gradle Profiler .

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    • Gradle 4.1 or higher. To learn more, read the section about updating Gradle .
    • Build Tools 26.0.2 or higher. With this update, you no longer need to specify a version for the build tools—the plugin uses the minimum required version by default. So, you can now remove the android.buildToolsVersion property.

    3.0.1 (November 2017)

    This is a minor update to support Android Studio 3.0.1, and includes general bug fixes and performance improvements.

    بهینه سازی ها

    • Better parallelism for multi-module projects through a fine grained task graph.
    • When making changes to dependency, Gradle performs faster builds by not re-compiling modules that do not have access to that dependency's API. You should restrict which dependencies leak their APIs to other modules by using Gradle's new dependency configurations : implementation , api , compileOnly , and runtimeOnly .
    • Faster incremental build speed due to per-class dexing. Each class is now compiled into separate DEX files, and only the classes that are modified are re-dexed. You should also expect improved build speeds for apps that set minSdkVersion to 20 or lower, and use legacy multi-dex .
    • Improved build speeds by optimizing certain tasks to use chached outputs. To benefit from this optimization, you need to first enable the Gradle build cache .
    • Improved incremental resource processing using AAPT2, which is now enabled by default. If you are experiencing issues while using AAPT2, please report a bug . You can also disable AAPT2 by setting android.enableAapt2=false in your gradle.properties file and restarting the Gradle daemon by running ./gradlew --stop from the command line.

    ویژگی های جدید

    • Variant-aware dependency management . When building a certain variant of a module, the plugin now automatically matches variants of local library module dependencies to the variant of the module you are building.
    • Includes a new Feature module plugin to support Android Instant Apps and the Android Instant Apps SDK (which you can download using the SDK manager ). To learn more about creating Feature modules with the new plugin, read Structure of an instant app with multiple features .
    • Built-in support for using certain Java 8 language features and Java 8 libraries. Jack is now deprecated and no longer required , and you should first disable Jack to use the improved Java 8 support built into the default toolchain. For more information, read Use Java 8 language features .
    • Added support for running tests with Android Test Orchestrator , which allows you to run each of your app's tests within its own invocation of Instrumentation. Because each test runs in its own Instrumentation instance, any shared state between tests doesn't accumulate on your device's CPU or memory. And, even if one test crashes, it takes down only its own instance of Instrumentation, so your other tests still run.

      • Added testOptions.execution to determine whether to use on-device test orchestration. If you want to use Android Test Orchestrator , you need to specify ANDROID_TEST_ORCHESTRATOR , as shown below. By default, this property is set to HOST , which disables on-device orchestration and is the standard method of running tests.

                ...
              }
              
    • Added testOptions.unitTests.includeAndroidResources to support unit tests that require Android resources, such as Roboelectric . When you set this property to true , the plugin performs resource, asset, and manifest merging before running your unit tests. Your tests can then inspect com/android/tools/test_config.properties on the classpath for the following keys:

      • android_merged_assets : the absolute path to the merged assets directory.

        Note: For library modules, the merged assets do not contain the assets of dependencies (see issue #65550419 ).

      • android_merged_manifest : the absolute path to the merged manifest file.

      • android_merged_resources : the absolute path to the merged resources directory, which contains all the resources from the module and all its dependencies.

      • android_custom_package : the package name of the final R class. If you dynamically modify the application ID, this package name may not match the package attribute in the app's manifest.

    • Support for fonts as resources (which is a new feature introduced in Android 8.0 (API level 26) ).
    • Support for language-specific APKs with Android Instant Apps SDK 1.1 and higher.
    • You can now change the output directory for your external native build project, as shown below:

    • You can now use CMake 3.7 or higher when building native projects from Android Studio.
    • New lintChecks dependency configuration allows you to build a JAR that defines custom lint rules, and package it into your AAR and APK projects.

      Your custom lint rules must belong to a separate project that outputs a single JAR and includes only compileOnly dependencies. Other app and library modules can then depend on your lint project using the lintChecks configuration:

      شیار

              dependencies {
                  // This tells the Gradle plugin to build ':lint-checks' into a lint.jar file
                  // and package it with your module. If the module is an Android library,
                  // other projects that depend on it automatically use the lint checks.
                  // If the module is an app, lint includes these rules when analyzing the app.
                  lintChecks project(':lint-checks')
              }

    • Android plugin 3.0.0 removes certain APIs, and your build will break if you use them. For example, you can no longer use the Variants API to access outputFile() objects or use processManifest.manifestOutputFile() to get the manifest file for each variant. To learn more, read API changes .
    • You no longer need to specify a version for the build tools (so, you can now remove the android.buildToolsVersion property). By default, the plugin automatically uses the minimum required build tools version for the version of Android plugin you're using.
    • You now enable/disable PNG crunching in the buildTypes block, as shown below. PNG crunching is enabled by default for all builds except debug builds because it increases build times for projects that include many PNG files. So, to improve build times for other build types, you should either disable PNG crunching or convert your images to WebP .

    • The Android plugin now automatically builds executable targets that you configure in your external CMake projects.
    • You must now add annotation processors to the processor classpath using the annotationProcessor dependency configuration.
    • Using the deprecated ndkCompile is now more restricted. You should instead migrate to using either CMake or ndk-build to compile native code that you want to package into your APK. To learn more, read Migrate from ndkcompile .

    3.0.0 (October 2017)

    Android Gradle plugin 3.0.0 includes a variety of changes that aim to address performance issues of large projects.

    For example, on a sample skeleton project with ~130 modules and a large number of external dependencies (but no code or resources), you can experience performance improvements similar to the following:

    Android plugin version + Gradle version Android plugin 2.2.0 + Gradle 2.14.1 Android plugin 2.3.0 + Gradle 3.3 Android plugin 3.0.0 + Gradle 4.1
    Configuration (eg running ./gradlew --help ) ~2 mins ~9 s ~2.5 s
    1-line Java change (implementation change) ~2 mins 15 s ~29 s ~6.4 s

    Some of these changes break existing builds. So, you should consider the\ effort of migrating your project before using the new plugin.

    If you don't experience the performance improvements described above, please file a bug and include a trace of your build using the Gradle Profiler .

    This version of the Android plugin requires the following:

    • Gradle 4.1 or higher. To learn more, read the section about updating Gradle .
    • Build Tools 26.0.2 or higher. With this update, you no longer need to specify a version for the build tools—the plugin uses the minimum required version by default. So, you can now remove the android.buildToolsVersion property.

    3.0.1 (November 2017)

    This is a minor update to support Android Studio 3.0.1, and includes general bug fixes and performance improvements.

    بهینه سازی ها

    • Better parallelism for multi-module projects through a fine grained task graph.
    • When making changes to dependency, Gradle performs faster builds by not re-compiling modules that do not have access to that dependency's API. You should restrict which dependencies leak their APIs to other modules by using Gradle's new dependency configurations : implementation , api , compileOnly , and runtimeOnly .
    • Faster incremental build speed due to per-class dexing. Each class is now compiled into separate DEX files, and only the classes that are modified are re-dexed. You should also expect improved build speeds for apps that set minSdkVersion to 20 or lower, and use legacy multi-dex .
    • Improved build speeds by optimizing certain tasks to use chached outputs. To benefit from this optimization, you need to first enable the Gradle build cache .
    • Improved incremental resource processing using AAPT2, which is now enabled by default. If you are experiencing issues while using AAPT2, please report a bug . You can also disable AAPT2 by setting android.enableAapt2=false in your gradle.properties file and restarting the Gradle daemon by running ./gradlew --stop from the command line.

    ویژگی های جدید

    • Variant-aware dependency management . When building a certain variant of a module, the plugin now automatically matches variants of local library module dependencies to the variant of the module you are building.
    • Includes a new Feature module plugin to support Android Instant Apps and the Android Instant Apps SDK (which you can download using the SDK manager ). To learn more about creating Feature modules with the new plugin, read Structure of an instant app with multiple features .
    • Built-in support for using certain Java 8 language features and Java 8 libraries. Jack is now deprecated and no longer required , and you should first disable Jack to use the improved Java 8 support built into the default toolchain. For more information, read Use Java 8 language features .
    • Added support for running tests with Android Test Orchestrator , which allows you to run each of your app's tests within its own invocation of Instrumentation. Because each test runs in its own Instrumentation instance, any shared state between tests doesn't accumulate on your device's CPU or memory. And, even if one test crashes, it takes down only its own instance of Instrumentation, so your other tests still run.

      • Added testOptions.execution to determine whether to use on-device test orchestration. If you want to use Android Test Orchestrator , you need to specify ANDROID_TEST_ORCHESTRATOR , as shown below. By default, this property is set to HOST , which disables on-device orchestration and is the standard method of running tests.

      شیار

              android {
                testOptions {
                  execution 'ANDROID_TEST_ORCHESTRATOR'

                }
              }
              
    • New androidTestUtil dependency configuration allows you to install another test helper APK before running your instrumentation tests, such as Android Test Orchestrator:

      شیار

              dependencies {
                androidTestUtil 'com.android.support.test:orchestrator:1.0.0'
                ...
              }

                ...
              }
              
    • Added testOptions.unitTests.includeAndroidResources to support unit tests that require Android resources, such as Roboelectric . When you set this property to true , the plugin performs resource, asset, and manifest merging before running your unit tests. Your tests can then inspect com/android/tools/test_config.properties on the classpath for the following keys:

      • android_merged_assets : the absolute path to the merged assets directory.

        Note: For library modules, the merged assets do not contain the assets of dependencies (see issue #65550419 ).

      • android_merged_manifest : the absolute path to the merged manifest file.

      • android_merged_resources : the absolute path to the merged resources directory, which contains all the resources from the module and all its dependencies.

      • android_custom_package : the package name of the final R class. If you dynamically modify the application ID, this package name may not match the package attribute in the app's manifest.

    • Support for fonts as resources (which is a new feature introduced in Android 8.0 (API level 26) ).
    • Support for language-specific APKs with Android Instant Apps SDK 1.1 and higher.
    • You can now change the output directory for your external native build project, as shown below:

    This is a minor update that adds compatibility with Android Studio 2.3.3 .

    2.3.2 (May 2017)

    This is a minor update that adds compatibility with Android Studio 2.3.2 .

    2.3.1 (April 2017)

    This is a minor update to Android plugin 2.3.0 that fixes an issue where some physical Android devices did not work properly with Instant Run (see Issue #235879 ).

    وابستگی ها:
    جدید:
    • Uses Gradle 3.3, which includes performance improvements and new features. For more details, see the Gradle release notes .
    • Build cache : stores certain outputs that the Android plugin generates when building your project (such as unpackaged AARs and pre-dexed remote dependencies). Your clean builds are much faster while using the cache because the build system can simply reuse those cached files during subsequent builds, instead of recreating them. Projects using Android plugin 2.3.0 and higher use the build cache by default. To learn more, read Improve Build Speed with Build Cache .
      • Includes a cleanBuildCache task that clears the build cache .
      • If you are using the experimental version of build cache (included in earlier versions of the plugin), you should update your plugin to the latest version.
    تغییرات:

    2.2.0 (September 2016)

    وابستگی ها:
    جدید:
    • Uses Gradle 2.14.1, which includes performance improvements and new features, and fixes a security vulnerability that allows local privilege escalation when using the Gradle daemon. For more details, see the Gradle release notes .
    • Using the externalNativeBuild {} DSL, Gradle now lets you link to your native sources and compile native libraries using CMake or ndk-build. After building your native libraries, Gradle packages them into your APK. To learn more about using CMake and ndk-build with Gradle, read Add C and C++ Code to Your Project .
    • When you run a build from the command line , Gradle now attempts to auto-download any missing SDK components or updates that your project depends on. To learn more, read Auto-download missing packages with Gradle .
    • A new experimental caching feature lets Gradle speed up build times by pre-dexing, storing, and reusing the pre-dexed versions of your libraries. To learn more about using this experimental feature, read the Build Cache guide.
    • Improves build performance by adopting a new default packaging pipeline which handles zipping, signing, and zipaligning in one task. You can revert to using the older packaging tools by adding android.useOldPackaging=true to your gradle.properties file. While using the new packaging tool, the zipalignDebug task is not available. However, you can create one yourself by calling the createZipAlignTask(String taskName, File inputFile, File outputFile) method.
    • APK signing now uses APK Signature Scheme v2 in addition to traditional JAR signing. All Android platforms accept the resulting APKs. Any modification to these APKs after signing invalidates their v2 signatures and prevents installation on a device. To disable this feature, add the following to your module-level build.gradle file:

      شیار

      android {
        ...
        signingConfigs {
          config {
            ...
            v2SigningEnabled false
          }
        }
      }
            

      کاتلین

      android {
        ...
        signingConfigs {
          create("config") {
            ...
            v2SigningEnabled = false
          }
        }
      }
            
    • For multidex builds, you can now use ProGuard rules to determine which classes Gradle should compile into your app's main DEX file. Because the Android system loads the main DEX file first when starting your app, you can prioritize certain classes at startup by compiling them into the main DEX file. After you create a ProGuard configuration file specifically for your main DEX file, pass the configuration file's path to Gradle using buildTypes.multiDexKeepProguard . Using this DSL is different from using buildTypes.proguardFiles , which provides general ProGuard rules for your app and does not specify classes for the main DEX file.
    • Adds support for the android:extractNativeLibs flag, which can reduce the size of your app when you install it on a device. When you set this flag to false in the <application> element of your app manifest, Gradle packages uncompressed and aligned versions of your native libraries with your APK. This prevents PackageManager from copying out your native libraries from the APK to the device's file system during installation and has the added benefit of making delta updates of your app smaller.
    • You can now specify versionNameSuffix and applicationIdSuffix for product flavors. ( Issue 59614 )
    تغییرات:
    • getDefaultProguardFile now returns the default ProGuard files that Android plugin for Gradle provides and no longer uses the ones in the Android SDK.
    • Improved Jack compiler performance and features:
      • Jack now supports Jacoco test coverage when setting testCoverageEnabled to true .
      • Improved support for annotation processors. Annotation processors on your classpath, such as any compile dependencies, are automatically applied to your build. You can also specify an annotation processor in your build and pass arguments by using the javaCompileOptions.annotationProcessorOptions {} DSL in your module-level build.gradle file:

        شیار

        android {
          ...
          defaultConfig {
            ...
            javaCompileOptions {
              annotationProcessorOptions {
                className 'com.example.MyProcessor'
                // Arguments are optional.
                arguments = [ foo : 'bar' ]
              }
            }
          }
        }
            

        کاتلین

        android {
          ...

              annotationProcessorOptions {
                className = "com.example.MyProcessor"
                // Arguments are optional.
                arguments(mapOf(foo to "bar"))
              }
            }
          }
        }
            

        If you want to apply an annotation processor at compile time but not include it in your APK, use the annotationProcessor dependency scope:

        شیار

        dependencies {
            compile 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.0'
            annotationProcessor 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.0'
           // or use buildVariantAnnotationProcessor to target a specific build variant
        }
            

        کاتلین

        dependencies {
            implementation("com.google.dagger:dagger:2.0")
            annotationProcessor("com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.0")
           // or use buildVariantAnnotationProcessor to target a specific build variant
        }
            
      • For a list of parameters you can set, run the following from the command line:

        java -jar /build-tools/jack.jar --help-properties
        
      • By default, if the Gradle daemon's heap size is at least 1.5 GB, Jack now runs in the same process as Gradle. To adjust the daemon heap size, add the following to your gradle.properties file:
        # This sets the daemon heap size to 1.5GB.
        org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1536M
        

    2.1.0 (April 2016)

    2.1.3 (August 2016)

      Note: Instant Run does not currently work with Jack and will be disabled while using the new toolchain. You only need to use Jack if you are developing for the N Preview and want to use the supported Java 8 language features.

    • Added default support for incremental Java compilation to reduce compilation time during development. It does this by only recompiling portions of the source that have changed or need to be recompiled. To disable this feature, add the following code to your module-level build.gradle file:

    • Added support for dexing-in-process which performs dexing within the build process rather than in a separate, external VM processes. This not only makes incremental builds faster, but also speeds up full builds. The feature is enabled by default for projects that have set the Gradle daemon's maximum heap size to at least 2048 MB. You can do this by including the following in your project's gradle.properties file:

      ```none org.gradle.jvmargs = -Xmx2048m ```

      If you have defined a value for javaMaxHeapSize in your module-level build.gradle file, you need to set org.gradle.jvmargs to the value of javaMaxHeapSize + 1024 MB. For example, if you have set javaMaxHeapSize to "2048m", you need to add the following to your project's gradle.properties file:

      ```none org.gradle.jvmargs = -Xmx3072m ```

      To disable dexing-in-process, add the following code to your module-level build.gradle file:

      شیار

      android {
        ...
        dexOptions {
            dexInProcess false
        }
      }

    • Enables Instant Run by supporting bytecode injection, and pushing code and resource updates to a running app on the emulator or a physical device.
    • Added support for incremental builds, even when the app isn't running. Full build times are improved by pushing incremental changes through the Android Debug Bridge to the connected device.
    • Added maxProcessCount to control how many worker dex processes can be spawned concurrently. The following code, in the module-level build.gradle file, sets the maximum number of concurrent processes to 4:

      شیار

      android {
        ...
        dexOptions {
          maxProcessCount = 4 // this is the default value
        }
      }

      android {
        ...
        dexOptions {
          maxProcessCount = 4 // this is the default value
        }
      }
      
        </li>
      
        <li>Added an experimental code shrinker to support pre-dexing and reduce re-dexing
        of dependencies, which are not supported with Proguard. This improves the build
        speed of your debug build variant. Because the experimental shrinker does not
        support optimization and obfuscation, you should enable Proguard for your
        release builds. To enable the experimental shrinker for your debug builds, add
        the following to your module-level <code>build.gradle</code> file:
      

      شیار

      android {
        ...
        buildTypes {
          debug {
            minifyEnabled true
            useProguard false
          }
          release {
            minifyEnabled true
            useProguard true // this is a default setting
          }
        }
      }
      

      کاتلین

      android {
        ...
        buildTypes {
          getByName("debug") {
            minifyEnabled = true
            useProguard = false
          }
          getByName("release") {
            minifyEnabled = true
            useProguard = true // this is a default setting
          }
        }
      }
      
        </li>
      
        <li>Added logging support and improved performance for the resource shrinker.
        The resource shrinker now logs all of its operations into a <code>resources.txt</code>
        file located in the same folder as the Proguard log files.
        </li>
      </ul>
      

    Changed behavior:
    • When minSdkVersion is set to 18 or higher, APK signing uses SHA256.
    •   <li>DSA and ECDSA keys can now sign APK packages.

    Android plugin for Gradle, revision 1.5.0 (November 2015)

    وابستگی ها:
    • Gradle 2.2.1 or higher.
    • Build Tools 21.1.1 or higher.
    نکات کلی:
    • Integrated the Data Binding plugin into the Android plugin for Gradle. To enable it, add the following code to each per-project build.gradle file that uses the plugin:
    • android {
          dataBinding {
              enabled = true
          }
      }
              
      android {
          dataBinding {
              enabled = true
          }
      }
              
    • Added a new Transform API to allow third-party plugins to manipulate compiled .class files before they're converted to .dex files. The Transform API simplifies injecting custom class manipulations while offering more flexibility regarding what you can manipulate. To insert a transform into a build, create a new class implementing one of the Transform interfaces, and register it with android.registerTransform(theTransform) or android.registerTransform(theTransform, dependencies) . There's no need to wire tasks together. Note the following about the Transform API:
      • A transform can apply to one or more of the following: the current project, subprojects, and external libraries.
      • A transform must be registered globally, which applies them to all variants.
      • Internal code processing, through the Java Code Coverage Library (JaCoCo), ProGuard, and MultiDex, now uses the Transform API. However, the Java Android Compiler Kit (Jack) doesn't use this API: only the javac/dx code path does.
      • Gradle executes the transforms in this order: JaCoCo, third-party plugins, ProGuard. The execution order for third-party plugins matches the order in which the transforms are added by the third party plugins; third-party plugin developers can't control the execution order of the transforms through an API.
    • Deprecated the dex getter from the ApplicationVariant class. You can't access the Dex task through the variant API anymore because it's now accomplished through a transform. There's currently no replacement for controlling the dex process.
    • Fixed incremental support for assets.
    • Improved MultiDex support by making it available for test projects, and tests now automatically have the com.android.support:multidex-instrumentation dependency.
    • Added the ability to properly fail a Gradle build and report the underlying error cause when the Gradle build invokes asynchronous tasks and there's a failure in the worker process.
    • Added support for configuring a specific Application Binary Interface (ABI) in variants that contain multiple ABIs.
    • Added support for a comma-separated list of device serial numbers for the ANDROID_SERIAL environment variable when installing or running tests.
    • Fixed an installation failure on devices running Android 5.0 (API level 20) and higher when the APK name contains a space.
    • Fixed various issues related to the Android Asset Packaging Tool (AAPT) error output.
    • Added JaCoCo incremental instrumentation support for faster incremental builds. The Android plugin for Gradle now invokes the JaCoCo instrumenter directly. To force a newer version of the JaCoCo instrumenter, you need to add it as a build script dependency.
    • Fixed JaCoCo support so it ignores files that aren't classes.
    • Added vector drawable support for generating PNGs at build time for backward-compatibility. Android plugin for Gradle generates PNGs for every vector drawable found in a resource directory that doesn't specify an API version or specifies an android:minSdkVersion attribute of 20 or lower in the <uses-sdk> element in the app manifest. You can set PNG densities by using the generatedDensities property in the defaultConfig or productFlavor sections of a build.gradle file.
    • Added sharing of the mockable android.jar , which the plugin generates only once and uses for unit testing. Multiple modules, such as app and lib , now share it. Delete $rootDir/build to regenerate it.
    • Changed the processing of Java resources to occur before the obfuscation tasks instead of during the packaging of the APK. This change allows the obfuscation tasks to have a chance to adapt the Java resources following packages obfuscation.
    • Fixed an issue with using Java Native Interface (JNI) code in the experimental library plugin.
    • Added the ability to set the platform version separately from the android:compileSdkVersion attribute in the experimental library plugin.

    افزونه اندروید برای Gradle، نسخه 1.3.0 (ژوئیه 2015)

    وابستگی ها:
    • Gradle 2.2.1 or higher.
    • Build Tools 21.1.1 or higher.
    نکات کلی:
    • Added support for the com.android.build.threadPoolSize property to control the Android task thread pool size from the gradle.properties file or the command line. The following example sets this property to 4.

              
              -Pcom.android.build.threadPoolSize=4
              
            
    • Set the default build behavior to exclude LICENSE and LICENSE.txt files from APKs. To include these files in an APK, remove these files from the packagingOptions.excludes property in the build.gradle file. به عنوان مثال:
      android {
            packagingOptions.excludes = []
          }
            
      android {
            packagingOptions.excludes.clear()
          }
          
    • Added the sourceSets task to inspect the set of all available source sets.
    • Enhanced unit test support to recognize multi-flavor and build variant source folders. For example, to test an app with multi-flavors flavor1 and flavorA with the Debug build type, the test source sets are:
      • تست کنید
      • testFlavor1
      • testFlavorA
      • testFlavor1FlavorA
      • testFlavor1FlavorADebug

      Android tests already recognized multi-flavor source folders.

    • Improved unit test support to:
      • Run javac on main and test sources, even if the useJack property is set to true in your build file.
      • Correctly recognize dependencies for each build type.
    • Added support for specifying instrumentation test-runner arguments from the command line. به عنوان مثال:
      ./gradlew connectedCheck \
         -Pandroid.testInstrumentationRunnerArguments.size=medium \
         -Pandroid.testInstrumentationRunnerArguments.class=TestA,TestB
              
    • Added support for arbitrary additional Android Asset Packaging Tool (AAPT) parameters in the build.gradle file. به عنوان مثال:

      android {
          aaptOptions {
            additionalParameters "--custom_option", "value"
          }
      }
            
      android {
          aaptOptions {
            additionalParameters += listOf("--custom_option", "value")
          }
      }
            
    • Added support for a test APK module as a separate test module, using the targetProjectPath and targetVariant properties to set the APK path and target variant.

      Note: A test APK module does not support product flavors and can only target a single variant. Also, Jacoco is not supported yet.

    • Added resource name validation before merging resources.
    • When building an AAR (Android ARchive) package for library modules, do not provide an automatic @{applicationId} placeholder in the manifest merger settings. Instead, use a different placeholder, such as @{libApplicationId} and provide a value for it if you want to include application Ids in the archive library.

    وابستگی ها:
    • Gradle 2.2.1 or higher.
    • Build Tools 21.1.1 or higher.
    نکات کلی:
    • Enhanced support for running unit tests with Gradle.
      • Added support to include Java-style resources in the classpath when running unit tests directly from Gradle.
      • Added unit test dependency support for Android Archive (AAR) artifacts.
      • Added support for the unitTestVariants property so unit test variants can be manipulated using the build.gradle file.
      • Added the unitTest.all code block under testOptions to configure customized tasks for unit test. The following sample code shows how to add unit test configuration settings using this new option:
        android {
          testOptions {
            unitTest.all {
              jvmArgs '-XX:MaxPermSize=256m' // Or any other gradle option.
            }
          }
        }
        
        android {
          testOptions {
            unitTest.all {
              jvmArgs += listOf("-XX:MaxPermSize=256m") // Or any other gradle option.
            }
          }
        }
                    
      • Fixed the handling of enums and public instance fields in the packaging of the mockable-android.jar file.
      • Fixed library project task dependencies so test classes recompile after changes.
    • Added the testProguardFile property to apply ProGuard files when minifying a test APK.
    • Added the timeOut property to the adbOptions code block for setting the maximum recording time for Android Debug Bridge screen recording.
    • Added support for 280 dpi resources.
    • Improved performance during project evaluation.

    وابستگی ها:
    • Gradle 2.2.1 or higher.
    • Build Tools 21.1.1 or higher.
    نکات کلی:
    • Added new unit test support
      • Enabled unit tests to run on the local JVM against a special version of the android.jar file that is compatible with popular mocking frameworks, for example Mockito.
      • Added new test tasks testDebug , testRelease , and testMyFlavorDebug when using product flavors.
      • Added new source folders recognized as unit tests: src/test/java/ , src/testDebug/java/ , src/testMyFlavor/java/ .
      • Added new configurations in the build.gradle file for declaring test-only dependencies, for example, testCompile 'junit:junit:4.11' , testMyFlavorCompile 'some:library:1.0' .

        Note: Test-only dependencies are not currently compatible with Jack (Java Android Compiler Kit).

      • Added the android.testOptions.unitTests.returnDefaultValues option to control the behaviour of the mockable android.jar.
    • Replaced Test in test task names with AndroidTest . For example, the assembleDebugTest task is now assembleDebugAndroidTest task. Unit test tasks still have UnitTest in the task name, for example assembleDebugUnitTest .
    • Modified ProGuard configuration files to no longer apply to the test APK. If minification is enabled, ProGuard processes the test APK and applies only the mapping file that is generated when minifying the main APK.
    • Updated dependency management
      • Fixed issues using provided and package scopes.

        Note: These scopes are incompatible with AAR (Android ARchive) packages and will cause a build with AAR packages to fail.

      • Modified dependency resolution to compare the dependencies of an app under test and the test app. If an artifact with the same version is found for both apps, it's not included with the test app and is packaged only with the app under test. If an artifact with a different version is found for both apps, the build fails.
    • Added support for anyDpi resource qualifier in resource merger.
    • Improved evaluation and IDE sync speeds for projects with a large number of Android modules .
