January 10, 2024

New Features

• Support for Kotlin 1.9.22

Bug Fixes

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

External Contribution

• Fix documentation typo. (aosp/288106)

December 13, 2023

androidx.activity:activity:1.8.2, androidx.activity:activity-compose:1.8.2, and androidx.activity:activity-ktx:1.8.2 are released. Version 1.8.2 contains these commits.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed the extra passed to the Photo Picker Activity Contract's ACTION_SYSTEM_FALLBACK_PICK_IMAGES to correctly pass it the EXTRA_SYSTEM_FALLBACK_PICK_IMAGES_MAX key, rather than using the extra with the key "com.google.android.gms.provider.extra.PICK_IMAGES_MAX". It is strongly recommended if you are an OEM who implements a system fallback Photo Picker to support both extras to ensure the widest compatibility. (I96a00)

CameraX: v1.3.1

December 13, 2023

androidx.camera:camera-*:1.3.1 is released. Version 1.3.1 contains these commits.

Bug Fixes

Improved the ProcessCameraProvider#bindToLifecycle() performance. The major change is to optimize the process of identifying the most suitable size combinations for UseCases. The optimal results vary based on the specific UseCase combinations and the number of supported output sizes for the target devices. (I454f2)

Here are some reference results for various scenarios:

• Four UseCases: Preview + ImageCapture + ImageAnalysis + VideoCapture

  • Google Pixel 7: Approximately 430 ms to 60 ms
  • Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra: Approximately 540 ms to 45 ms
  • Samsung A53 5G: Approximately 115 ms to 70 ms

• Three UseCases: Preview + ImageCapture + ImageAnalysis

  • Google Pixel 7: Approximately 9 ms to 7 ms
  • Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra: Approximately 6 ms to 5 ms
  • Samsung A53 5G: Approximately 32 ms to 12 ms

• Added Snapdragon 480 to the CameraUseInconsistentTimebaseQuirk. This fixes an issue on Android 12 for devices using this chipset where the audio in recordings is offset by the amount of time the device is in a suspended state. (I58010)

CameraX: v1.4.0-alpha03

December 13, 2023

androidx.camera:camera-*:1.4.0-alpha03 is released. Version 1.4.0-alpha03 contains these commits.

New Features

• Added CameraInfo.mustPlayShutterSound to provide the information of whether a shutter sound must be played in accordance to regional restrictions. (Ifda84)
• Added OnImageCapturedCallback.onCaptureStarted and OnImageSavedCallback.onCaptureStarted for notifying when the camera has started exposing a frame. It's recommended to play the shutter sound or the shutter animation at this point. (Ic49b3)
• Added Screen Flash feature support in CameraX for front camera image capture. CameraX will take care of the framework-side API handling and sync the timing with application's UI changes as required (e.g. AE precapture trigger after app screen color/brightness change). Apps will only need to add their UI side implementations in the ScreenFlashUiControl interface provided to CameraX. (I8ae84)
• Added Screen Flash feature UI-side implementation support in CameraX. Apps will be able to get a basic ImageCapture.ScreenFlashUiControl implementation from PreviewView or the newly added ScreenFlashView which will add a mono-color overlay view and maximize screen brightness during screen flash photo capture. (I1810e)

API Changes

• Supports new Extensions features(postview and capture process progress): Added ImageCapture#getImageCaptureCapabilities() APIs for apps to query the capabilities of the postview and capture process progress callback. Apps can enable the postview using the ImageCapture.Builder#setPostviewEnabled(). The postview size can be selected using ImageCapture.Builder#setPostviewResolutionSelector(). When invoking takePicture(), onPostviewBitmapAvailable and onCaptureProcessProgressed can be implemented in OnImageSavedCallback or OnImageCapturedCallback to get the postview and process progress notification if supported. (I5cd88)
• APIs for calculate coordinates transformation from sensor to the current buffer, with a flag indicating whether the Surface contains the camera orientation info. (I59096)
• Expose the API to query PreviewCapabitlity in Preview UseCase. (Ie5b6c)
• Added APIs to support more qualities for VideoCapture. Recorder.Builder#setVideoCapabilitiesSource(int) can be used with VIDEO_CAPABILITIES_SOURCE_CODEC_CAPABILITIES to create a Recorder instance which supports more qualities than VIDEO_CAPABILITIES_SOURCE_CAMCORDER_PROFILE. A common use case is when the application strives to record UHD video whenever feasible, but the device's CamcorderProfile does not include a UHD settings, even though the codec is capable of recording UHD video. (Iedbe2, b/263961771)
• Add ImageAnalysis output format getter/setter to CameraController. (I9a96c, b/308240643)

Bug Fixes

Bug Fixes

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

External Contribution
