A small optimization to the resource code, to not re-parse the framework
resources every time we build a new AssetManager. Instead, you can now
construct a ResTable from a previously created one... of course, like the
existing code for using the data in-place, you can't delete the original
ResTable until you have deleted the one that has been constructed from it.
It turns out this was not a problem in the resource code at all. Rather,
the system process has a cache of pre-loaded attributes it uses to avoid
continually reloading things as it needs them. Well it turns out this
cache wasn't flushed after a package was uninstalled or a configuration
changed, so you could re-install an app where you change its style resources
so its theme now points to one that is inconsistent in the cache.
This is mostly a problem for developers, where they continually install
new versions of an app where resources have changed. This could possibly
show up when updating an app on a normal phone, although the problem would
eventually correct itself since this cache uses weak references.
Anyway, the cache is now reworked to be flushed appropriately.
This change also includes an update to aapt to be able to dump the
contents of bags in resources.
* changes:
Add in TTS engine interface the methods to query the availability for a language, to set the synthesis audio format, to query the current language, country and variant setting.
* changes:
Pipe all the camera callbacks to Java to facilitate the addition of new features. This will make it easy to add things like zoom callbacks without modifying the entire camera stack. Bug 1837832.
Applications can now declare that they support small, normal, or
large screens. Resource selection can also be done based on these
sizes. By default, pre-Donut apps are false for small and large,
and Donut or later apps are assumed to support all sizes. In either
case they can use <supports-screens> in their manifest to declare
what they actually support.
This allows the camera service to hang onto the callback interface
until all callbacks have been processed. This prevents problems
where pending callbacks in binder worker threads are processed
after the Java camera object and its associated native resources
have been released.
Bug 1884362
This change puts the file's access mode into the saved-state blob used by the
file backup helpers. The tests have been updated for the new blob content
format.
What this change *doesn't* do is actually backup/restore the file mode. This
change is a prerequisite for that, but mode preservation in backup/restore will
require adding metadata to the backup data stream itself, so will be approached
a bit more carefully.
(Also fixed one outright bug in the test program: ReadEntityData() had been
changed to return a ssize_t union of either a byte-count or a negative number
indicating error, but the test program was still assuming that nonzero == error,
and was spuriously failing.)
The aapt tool now reports all available densities like it already did
for locales. Also this includes more resource data output, which I
was using to examine bug #1867049 (which at this point I am unable to
reproduce).
- return "const" objects for overloaded operators to disallow constructs like: (a+b) = c;
- don't return references to non-static members, it's not always safe.
- Point.cpp was empty, so get rid of it
This is the second half of bug 1837832. Modifies the camera client
and camera service to use the new binder interface. Removes the
old binder interface. There will be one more part to this change
to surface the undefined callbacks to the Java layer so that
partners can implement new features without having to touch the
stack.
This is the first step in a multi-step change to move from the old
specific callbacks to a generic callback. This will allow future
flexibility in the interface without requiring binder rewrites.
Bug 1837832
* changes:
Add support for changing a threads scheduler group. Three groups are available (default, background non interactive, foreground boost). Setting a thread priority to PRIORITY_BACKGROUND will transparently change groups to background
Add a factory method that creates a Camera object from a remote client
Next:
The changes in authordriver.cpp and android_camera_input.cpp will come.
and the constructor for Camera object will be removed.
