• Reduced chance of stack sampling causing measureRepeatedOnMainThread from hitting main thread hard timeout by moving stack sampling conversion off main thread. (I487a8, b/342237318)

August 7, 2024

androidx.pdf:pdf-viewer:1.0.0-alpha01 and androidx.pdf:pdf-viewer-fragment:1.0.0-alpha01 are released. Version 1.0.0-alpha01 contains these commits.

New Features

The initial alpha release of PDFViewer includes early preview implementations that enable core PDF reading scenarios. Please note that the PdfViewerFragment is currently supported only on Android V (SDK 35) versions. Support for older Android versions will be added in upcoming releases. - Introduced PdfViewerFragment which your app can use to render a PDF document. PdfViewerFragment simplifies integrating a PDF viewer in your Activity and lets the users interact in the following ways - - Zooming: Pinch in and out to adjust zoom levels for a comfortable reading experience as well as double tap for a quick zoom in/out to the default state. - Navigation: Scroll in the default/zoomed state. PdfViewerFragment provides a quick scrubber for fast scrolling between pages. - Text actions: Long tapping on text selects it, allowing users to use options like Copy and Select all on the current page. - Password-protected documents: PdfViewerFragment provides a dialog box for the user to enter the password and open the document. - Navigable hyperlinks: Users can navigate to Web URLs or bookmarks by tapping on hyperlinks within the PDF. - Shortcut to annotations mode: Edit mode is not yet supported in PdfViewerFragment. Instead, PdfViewerFragment displays a FloatingActionButton that fires an implicit android.intent.action.ANNOTATE intent with the document URI.

API Changes

• Added PdfViewerFragment.documentUri property to set a file or content URI for the document and initiate the document loading. PdfViewerFragment displays a loading spinner when the URI is set indicating the background processing of the document.
• Added PdfViewerFragment.isTextSearchActive to toggle the visibility of the find in file menu. PdfViewerFragment handles the entire flow - allowing input, displaying total number of matches, enabling navigation between results and exiting it.
• Added onDocumentLoadSuccess and onDocumentLoadError callbacks which are invoked after successful rendering of the document or after an error is thrown before the rendering.

Known Issues

• Find in file bar overlaps with the FloatingActionButton in some cases.
• FloatingActionButton icon isn’t visible for single page PDFs.
• Result count is not preserved on configuration change in the find in file menu.
• Flickering is observed while closing the find in file menu
• 3D images in PDF documents are not rendered in the viewer.
• Accessibility features will be enabled in the following releases.
• PDF image gets blurry on rotating from portrait to landscape.
• No support for text/highlight annotation.
• PdfViewerFragment has some performance issues on very large PDF documents (> 250 MB)

Note

• Update compileSdk to 35 5dc41be

Room: v2.7.0-alpha06

August 7, 2024

androidx.room:room-*:2.7.0-alpha06 is released. Version 2.7.0-alpha06 contains these commits.

API Changes

• Change the instantiation setup for a RoomDatabase in a KMP project.

Due to Kotlin 2.0 compilation model, the strategy of referencing a to-be-generated function, named instantiateImpl() is longer viable. Two new APIs, @ConstructedBy and RoomDatabaseConstructor are introduced that replace the instantiateImpl() strategy. The new strategy is as follow:

  1. Define an expect object that implements `RoomDatabaseConstructor`
  ```
  expect object MyDatabaseCtor : RoomDatabaseConstructor<MyDatabase>
  ```
  2. Link the object with the `@Database` declaration using `@ConstructedBy`
  ```
  @Database(...)
  @ConstructedBy(MyDatabaseCtor::class) // NEW
  abstract class MyDatabase : RoomDatabase
  ```
  3. Create a new database instance but without passing a factory argument
  ```
  fun createNewDatabase(path: String) =
      Room.databaseBuilder<AppDatabase>(name = path)
          .setDriver(BundledSQLiteDriver())
          .setQueryCoroutineContext(Dispatchers.IO)
          .build()
  ```

(Ic787a, b/316978491, b/338446862, b/342905180) - Support for @RawQuery in Room KMP by adding a new API called RoomRawQuery that is similar to SupportSQLiteQuery in terms of holding into the raw SQL string and a function to bind arguments into a statement. @RawQuery annotated functions can now accept a RoomRawQuery as their single parameter. (Iea844, b/330586815) - Add an overload of setQueryCallback() that accepts a CoroutineContext. (Id66ff, b/309996304) - Added support for linuxArm64 Kotlin Multiplatform targets (I139d3, b/338268719)

Bug Fixes

• Fix an issue where Room would incorrectly generate a call to recursiveFetchArrayMap in non-Android targets. (710c36, b/352482325)
• Fix an issue where sometimes Room would throw an exception about ‘Timed out attempting a connection’ in a KMP project. (fa72d0, b/347737870)
• Fix an issue in auto-migrations that would check for foreign keys too early before other tables changed their schemas to conform to the new foreign keys. (7672c0, b/352085724)
