FlutterMain.findAppBundlePath is using the presence of the flutter_assets
directory as a signal that the app is initialized. For consistency,
FlutterMain will run the resource extractor at startup and create
flutter_assets even if no resources need to be extracted.
The ICU data is packaged within libflutter.so, and the engine uses
dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT) to look up the ICU data symbols in the libraries
loaded by the process.
This approach apparently fails on some Xiaomi devices. If RTLD_DEFAULT
can not find the symbols, then the platform will pass the path to the
libflutter.so library so the engine can use that to resolve the symbols.
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/28208
Prior to this the Android embedder code would extract the icudtl.dat asset out
of the APK and write it to local disk during the first startup of the app.
This change will make that work unnecessary and eliminate the risk of ICU
failures due to errors in the extraction process.
This is a no-op change, except for fixing a bug where download task
reference wasn't cleared after download was completed.
This change also removes call to output stream flush(), which is not
necessary according to Java spec.
The rest of the change deals with requiring the code to work directly
with ResourceUpdater object instead of having FlutterMain be a facade
that forwards some of ResourceUpdater's methods. This simplifies the
other (more essential) upcoming changes that will be landing in the
followings few PRs.
This change introduces manifest properties that control when dynamic patches are downloaded and installed in the application lifecycle.
Application developer can choose whether between install on restart, install on resume, or immediate forced install of dynamic patches.
Minor refactoring of dynamic patching code.
- Changes naming of manifest properties to be consistent with documentation.
- Moves methods from inner class to outer class to make them more reusable.
- Switch core snapshot to Dart 2 and remove support for loading platform.dill.
- Remove support for loading script snapshots.
- Remove support for loading source.
- Remove settings and fix names to reflect the above.
- Remove support for loading the service isolate from source.
* Enable flutter engine to also work with .*so files on android
We would like to be able to use native tools (e.g. simpleperf, gdb) with
precompiled flutter apps. The native tools work much better with *.so
files instead of the custom formats the Dart VM uses by default.
This CL adds support for being able to load the flutter app from an *.so
file on Android.
* Add sanity check to ensure we have either shared library or instruction snapshot (but not both)
* Read core platform kernel file during Dart initialization.
Currently service isolate is initialized from the source code parsed by VM.
This CL changes it so service isolate created during Dart initialization
is created from the kernel platform.dill file if it is present in the application
bundle. Then this platform kernel file is kept in dart_init module and reused
for application sciprt isolates.
* Reformat and merge
* Use accessor method
* Avoid passing running_from_kernel param. Add TODO for cleanup. Rename param.
Breaking change: removed facilities for JSON and string messaging from FlutterView/FlutterViewController, leaving only binary messaging there. All other use of flutter communication now goes through FlutterMessageChannel and FlutterMethodChannels. Retained use of String and JSON codecs for now.
