This reverts commit 92ef2b9ce1.
This requires either runApp() or
WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized() to have been called before
using any MethodChannels. Plugins broadly rely on MethodChannels and
right now there's no general requirements that they be constructed
within the runApp call, so the ecosystem breakages from this are broader
than originally thought. Reverting for now.
- Splits on{Enter,Hover,Exit} from Listener to MouseRegion. Deprecated API is kept for compatibility.
- Splits on{Enter,Hover,Exit} from RenderPointerListener to RenderMouseRegion.
This relands https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/35297
The followings have been done to fix the broken tests:
1. Add `didSendFirstFrameRasterizedEvent` extension and its tests
2. Wait for `didSendFirstFrameRasterizedEvent` instead of
`didSendFirstFrameEvent` during start up tests
3. Mark missed (probably newly added) start up tests as flaky
`flutter build aar`
This new build command works just like `flutter build apk` or `flutter build appbundle`, but for plugin and module projects.
This PR also refactors how plugins are included in app or module projects. By building the plugins as AARs, the Android Gradle plugin is able to use Jetifier to translate support libraries into AndroidX libraries for all the plugin's native code. Thus, reducing the error rate when using AndroidX in apps.
This change also allows to build modules as AARs, so developers can take these artifacts and distribute them along with the native host app without the need of the Flutter tool. This is a requirement for add to app.
`flutter build aar` generates POM artifacts (XML files) which contain metadata about the native dependencies used by the plugin. This allows Gradle to resolve dependencies at the app level. The result of this new build command is a single build/outputs/repo, the local repository that contains all the generated AARs and POM files.
In a Flutter app project, this local repo is used by the Flutter Gradle plugin to resolve the plugin dependencies. In add to app case, the developer needs to configure the local repo and the dependency manually in `build.gradle`:
repositories {
maven {
url "<path-to-flutter-module>build/host/outputs/repo"
}
}
dependencies {
implementation("<package-name>:flutter_<build-mode>:1.0@aar") {
transitive = true
}
}
