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.
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 change adds a fixed-size metadata block at the head of each file's content
entity. The block is versioned, and fixed-size on the theory that it might be
nice to be able to recover the content (if not the full metadata) of the files
if we're ever confronted with data backed up some hypothetical future helper
that stored expanded metadata.
The net effect is that now on restore, we assign the same access mode to the
file that it originally had when backed up.
Also, some of the code was failing to properly free transient heap-based buffers
when it encountered errors. This has been fixed with the addition of a tiny
stack-based object whose job it is to free() its designated pointer from its
destructor.
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).
StringArray is used in two places in framework/base and in the Sim. Ideally we should get rid of it and use Vector<String8> instead of creating new code.
- make sure that all binder Bn classes define a ctor and dtor in their respective library.
This avoids duplication of the ctor/dtor in libraries where these objects are instantiated.
This is also cleaner, should we want these ctor/dtor to do something one day.
- same change as above for some Bp classes and various other non-binder classes
- moved the definition of CHECK_INTERFACE() in IInterface.h instead of having it everywhere.
- improved the CHECK_INTERFACE() macro so it calls a single method in Parcel, instead of inlining its code everywhere
- IBinder::getInterfaceDescriptor() now returns a "const String16&" instead of String16, which saves calls to String16 and ~String16
- implemented a cache for BpBinder::getInterfaceDescriptor(), since this does an IPC. HOWEVER, this method never seems to be called.
The cache makes BpBinder bigger, so we need to figure out if we need this method at all.
Added missing include sys/time.h for utimes.
Detects when stat64 uses a timespec for the modif and access times
and work around the missing st_*time_nsec.
Apologies for the whitespace changes, emacs removed them automatically.
Use java.text.DateFormat where possible, since that is already using
the CLDR data for the things it supports. Remove an unused date format
object from DatePickerDialog.
Add a new method for getting the standalone month names from applications,
although @hidden for now because it is an API change.
Pass the standalone month names down to native code in Time so that
tztime's strftime() can use them.
And then the bulk of the change: replace all the names for the months
and the days of the week, and AM and PM, and yesterday, today, and tomorrow,
with strings from CLDR. And replace several of the date format strings
with ones derived from CLDR, but reformatted to use strftime() style
instead of SimpleDateFormat style.
All these resource changes go into new donottranslate-cldr.xml files
and are removed from strings.xml so that they aren't part of the
normal translation process and the translators don't have to bother
with them (and risk messing them up).
