The aapt2 tool, new to Android Studio 3, creates an APK which fails
to install on Android 5 and below if it contains the following bug:
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/64434571
Build tools 27.0.1 has a mitigation. Avoiding aapt2 also avoids hitting
the bug.
The import path directly from the file system may not
result in using a content:// or file:// Uri, but instead
a file system path. If this occurs, attempt to use a FileInputStream
to read the contents.
It was observed by one user that the Uri to filename lookup
failed with an IllegalStateException. The code which
converts a Uri to a file path may not be that great,
especially now that the app is expected to not receive
file Uris. Instead of determining the best way to lookup
the file names, as it is not that important it will be
removed.
There are issues with using the "andorid" tool to accept
some licenses on Travis-CI. The theory from Travis-CI is that
the android binary is out of date. An alternative is using
sdkmanager.
Commons-CSV would throw a RuntimeException in some cases of
bad CSV input. This was later changed to throwing an
IllegalStateException. Updating to v1.5 to pick-up the change.
Note that the second slide has been changed. Originally there was
text over the image with an arrow. This text could not be translated
and was part of the instruction. The arrow is really not needed,
so it has been removed with the overlay text.
Also, the originals folder has been removed. The screenshots which
were used to create the wizard images are in the metadata folder.
On Android SDK 24+ exposing a file Uri causes a failure.
Picking a file from a file chooser using data of a file://
Uri also hits this. As this is not necessary, removing the
Uri.
The preferred way to create a shortcut is through the launcher.
Although it is possible for an app to create shortcuts, there is
concern that allowing the app to do so may not be desirable
due to potentials for abuse.
As there is support now for adding shortcuts through the launcher,
this app do not need to also support creating them itself.
