Benchmark: v1.2.0-alpha01

July 27, 2022

androidx.benchmark:benchmark-*:1.2.0-alpha01 is released. Version 1.2.0-alpha01 contains these commits.

New Features

  • New tracing-perfetto-common component allowing tooling to enable Perfetto SDK tracing in an app that exposes it (I2cc7f)

  • Added androidx.benchmark.enabledRules instrumentation argument to enable filtering macrobenchmark runs to just benchmarks, or just baseline profile generation. Pass in 'Macrobenchmark', or 'BaselineProfile' to just run one type of test, e.g. when just generating BaselineProfiles on an emulator. Comma-separated list also Supported. (I756b7, b/230371561)

    E.g. in Your macrobenchmark's build.gradle:

    android {
    defaultConfig {
        testInstrumentationRunnerArgument 'androidx.benchmark.enabledRules', 'BaselineProfile'
    }
}

    Or from the Gradle command line:

    ./gradlew macrobenchmark:cC -P android.testInstrumentationRunnerArguments.androidx.benchmark.enabledRules=BaselineProfile

Compose Runtime: v1.2.0

July 27, 2022

androidx.compose.runtime:runtime-*:1.2.0 is released. Version 1.2.0 contains these commits.

Important changes since 1.1.0

  • Compose Runtime had a handful of features introduced in 1.2.0, along with many stabilizing bug fixes. The most significant new feature was the introduction of the movableContentOfAPI, which can be used to enable complex UX such as shared element transitions. The movableContentOf API converts a composable lambda into a lambda that moves it state, and corresponding nodes, to any new location it is called. When the previous call leaves the composition the state is temporarily preserved and if a new call to the lambda enters the composition then the state, and associated Nodes, are moved to the location of the new call. If no new call is added the state is removed permanently and remember observers are notified.

  • If a movableContentOf lambda is called multiple times in the same composition, new state and nodes are created for each call and, as calls leave the composition and new calls enter, the state is moved from the first leaving calls to the entering calls in the order they are called. All state not claimed by new calls is removed permanently.

  • In addition to this and a few other new features, much time was spent stabilizing the runtime and Snapshot state system. Various memory leaks were removed and code paths optimized.

  • A summarized list of the changes can be found below:

  • Add mapTree to SlotTree.kt. This allows tools to inspect the SlotTree without making an in memory copy first like asTree does. For the Layout Inspector this gives a performance improvement of about a factor 10. (I5e113)
  • Changed Compose Preview to be stored in binary output files, in order to allow developers to write and reuse MultiPreview annotations from libraries. (I85699, b/233511976)

Metrics: v1.0.0-alpha03

July 27, 2022

androidx.metrics:metrics-performance:1.0.0-alpha03 is released. Version 1.0.0-alpha03 contains these commits.

  • This release contains minor API refinements as the library gets closer to beta. One of the API changes removes the Executor from the createAndTrack() factory method for creating a JankStats object. This has implications for the OnFrameListener callback, as that listener is now called on the thread which delivers the per-frame data to JankStats (the Main/UI thread on versions earlier than API 24, and the FrameMetrics thread on API 24+). Moreover, the FrameData object passed to the listener is now reused every frame, so data from that object must be copied and cached elsewhere during the callback, as that object should be considered obsolete as soon as the listener returns.

  • There were also various bug fixes, including some concurrency issues.

  • Finally, the fix to reuse FrameData (mentioned above) means that there are now zero allocations per frame due to frame metrics delivery. There weren’t many allocations before, but the new approach means that you can use JankStats without incurring any per-frame GC overhead in your app.

API Changes

  • Updated method and parameter names in PerformanceMetricsState to make the results of those calls clearer. (I56da5, b/233421985)
  • Added benchmark tests to track allocations, eliminated some internal allocations related to state management and reporting. Note that FrameData passed to listeners is now considered volatile; that structure will be reused for the next frame and the data is only reliable until the listener returns.
  • Removed Executor from constructor for JankStats; listeners are now called on whatever thread the internal data was received upon. (I12743)

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed crash due to double-removal of OnFrameMetricsAvailableListener (I44094, b/239457413)
  • Return to original logic of posting OnPreDrawListener messages at front of queue, for more consistent and predictable frame timing. (I05a43, b/233358407)
  • Fixed ConcurrentModificationException bug where the list of listener delegates was being modified while it was also being iterated through to send per-frame data. (Ib7693, b/236612357)

Wear Tiles: v1.1.0-beta01

July 27, 2022

androidx.wear.tiles:tiles-*:1.1.0-beta01 is released. Version 1.1.0-beta01 contains these commits.

The 1.0.0-beta01 release of Tiles Material library contains components and layouts that are in-line with Material guidelines and easy to build.

The included components are:

  • Button - clickable, circular-shaped object, with either icon, text or image with 3 predefined sizes.
  • Chip - clickable, stadium-shaped object that can contain an icon, primary and secondary labels, and has fixed height and customizable width.
  • CompactChip & TitleChip - two variations of the standard Chip that have smaller and larger heights, respectively, and can contain one line of text.
  • CircularProgressIndicator - colored arc around the edge of the screen with the given start and end angles, which can describe a full or partial circle with the full progress arc behind it.
  • Text - styled text which uses the recommended Wear Material typography styles

All these components have their own colors object that can be built with the main Colors class to easily apply the same theme over all components. In addition to colors, there is a Typography class to easily get FontStyle objects using the typography name.

In addition to components, there are recommended tiles layouts:

  • PrimaryLayout - A layout which can be customized by adding primary or secondary labels, content in the middle, and a primary chip at the bottom. The main content within this layout could be added as a MultiSlotLayout or MultiButtonLayout object.
  • EdgeContentLayout - A layout for hosting CircularProgressIndicator around the edge with main content inside and primary or secondary label around it.
  • MultiButtonLayout - A layout that can contain 1 - 7 buttons, arranged in line with the Material guidelines depending on their number.
  • MultiSlotLayout - A row-like style layout with horizontally aligned and spaced slots (for icons or other small content).

All layouts have recommended padding and styles applied that are within Material guidelines.

API Changes

  • Major refactor to the Chip components that includes separating setters in Builder so that each part of the content is passed in separately with renaming to match guidelines (primary label, secondary label, image resource id). Additionally, content description will be auto generated if not set. (I57622)
  • ProgressIndicatorLayout has been renamed to EdgeContentLayout. (Ic1aa6)
  • Button size contents have been renamed to names without _BUTTON suffix in it with additional Javadocs clarification across Button. (I1dfe2)

Bug Fixes

  • Margins, padding and overall arrangement in Material Layouts has been updated to accommodate all types of recommended layouts and screen sizes and shapes.
  • Improvements to Material Layouts. In MultiSlotLayout slots are now flexible in width where they’ll wrap content instead of being fixed size.(I52919),(If18b4)
  • Area that can be tapped on CompactChip has been increased to follow accessibility guidelines. (Ie8264)
