    Performance loss using compound components?

    Posted: 22 Aug 2020 03:20 AM PDT

    Hey, so some time ago I discovered that we could create compound components by extending some kind of a ViewGroup and inflating an layout into it. After some time I noticed that I should use the merge tag as the top most tag in that layouts to prevent unnecessary nesting.

    Recently I saw a post that stated that nesting ViewGroups is very bad for performance and we should keep our view hierarchy flat. I 100% agreed with that.

    Finally my problem: I got in love with compound views as they make some components reusable (not only the layout but also some logic that is coupled to them - that's why I don't consider that include tag as satisfying as compound components) and reduce complexity as layout files get smaller and so on. But with every compound component you add to your layout, you add an ViewGroup that is nested. Sometimes this can introduce multiple layers of nesting (as an compound component could be used in another one).

    Now I would like to know how big the performance penalty is if I would like to continue compound views to split up my layout and if there is a way to eliminate the issue of nesting compound components?

    Why can't you set an ActionMode bar's style programmatically?

    Posted: 22 Aug 2020 05:25 AM PDT

    ActionMode bars... is there ANY way to set the height or style via Java (not xml)????

    If not, why hasn't this feature been added? I feel like this is really bad.

    I can't change every single ActionMode bar style via the theme just for ONE actionmode, specific situation.

    I need to add more room when there's a subtitle.

    Turn off deprecation warning from Hilt compiled code

    Posted: 22 Aug 2020 02:39 AM PDT

    My gradle build system is set to stop when there are warnings on source files.

    Hilt generated code uses some deprecated call

    Task :home:compileReleaseJavaWithJavac /.../home/fragment/Hilt_HomeFragment.java:42: warning: [deprecation] onAttach(Activity) in Fragment has been deprecated public void onAttach(Activity activity) { 

    so my build miserably fails

    For now I allow to compile with warnings but the question is (drum roll):

    Is it possible to turn off deprecated warnings coming ONLY from generated code (specifically Hilt)?

    On average, how long does it take for your app release to get reviewed by Google?

    Posted: 22 Aug 2020 01:05 AM PDT

    On average, how long does it take for your app to get reviewed by Google when creating a release?

    Earlier this year I published a puzzle game app, which is rated family friendly, and I would say on average it takes 2 - 3 days for a review. Sometimes a bit more or less. If I discover a bug after a reviewed app release, and in my experience if I am fairly quick in releasing a fix for this, it gets reviewed and approved within the same day.

    Unfortunately, my last app release has so far been waiting for a review for 3 weeks. I created the release on August 1. The release contains a bug fix for a release which was reviewed and approved one day prior. I also changed the text in the store listing slightly on August 2, which is still waiting for approval as well.

    I getting some feedback about the bug from users, and I also have another release (accessibility and app linking) ready to go, so it is becoming a bit frustrating waiting for this review.

    I am wondering if my case is extreme or have any of you had the same experience as me.

    Thanks :)

    Android Play Store review time increased?

    Posted: 21 Aug 2020 01:06 PM PDT

    Hey all. My dev team and I have been making regular updates to our app in the play store about once a week throughout the entire year, and despite the notice that Play Store review times will take longer, every app update went live in a few hours. Until now.

    Suddenly, it's been EIGHT days since our "Full Rollout" to production (and three days ago we did a beta Rollout). Neither the production rollout nor the beta rollout has gone live. Android support states that this is normal and the reviews are simply taking longer than usual. However, going from 3 hours to 8+ days seems pretty drastic.

    We did notice that the Android build we uploaded for the production rollout had some sort of "outdated Android SDK version" warning which we hadn't seen before. The build is using SDK version 28. We're wondering if this might be the true culprit.

    Android support has warned us not to upload another build as it will reset the review process, so we've avoided doing that thus far.

    Is anyone else seeing a similar issue? Could the API version warning be the true culprit?

    EDIT: So I just discovered this: https://developer.android.com/distribute/play-policies#:~:text=Apps%20must%20target%20API%20level%2029&text=By%20November%202%2C%202020%2C%20all,the%20API%20level%2029%20requirement.

    It appears that the min. target SDK version is now 29. I'm guessing that's the culprit. We're going to try upgrading our target SDK to see if this gets the app approved faster.

    EDIT 2: It turns out min target SDK 29 won't be enforced until November 2020 for existing apps.
