1 Change log for Android SDK Tools. 2 3 Revision 14: 4 5 - Build performance improvements: 6 * resource compilation and packaging now properly use dependency to only 7 be executed if a resource changed. 8 * Optimized resource compilation for projects with libraries. This should 9 speed up this phase significantly for large projects with libraries. 10 * PNG files that are optimized during resource packaging are now cached 11 and only re-optimized if they changed instead of doing at every build. 12 - New library project mechanism: 13 * 14 15 Revision 13: 16 17 Revision 12: (07/2011): 18 - The AVD manager and emulator can now use system images compiled for ARM v7 and 19 x86 CPUs. 20 21 Revision 11 (05/2011): 22 - See eclipse/changes.txt for ADT related changes. 23 24 Revision 10 (02/2011): 25 - The tools now automatically generate Java Programming Language 26 source files (in the gen directory) and bytecode (in the res/raw 27 directory) from your native .rs files 28 29 Revision 9 (01/2011): 30 - Fix packaging issue that broke draw9patch 31 - Ant build rules will now check the Ant version and fail if it's older than 1.8 32 - Fix "folder locked" errors when installing packages in SDK Manager on Windows. 33 - Support https proxy when installing from SDK Manager. 34 - SDK Manager now suggests to install missing base platform for add-ons. 35 - Default proguard config file changes: 36 * ignore classes extending android.preference.Preference 37 * ignore classes extending android.app.backup.BackupAgentHelper 38 - Ant lib rules now allow for overriding java.encoding, java.source, and java.target 39 - Default encoding for Ant javac is now UTF-8 40 - Logcat view in DDMS now properly displays UTF-8 characters. 41 42 43 Revision 8 (12/2010): 44 - New SDK component: platform-tools. This makes all platforms use the same 45 latest version of aapt/aidl/dx. 46 - Support for true debug build. No need to change the value of debuggable in 47 the Android Manifest. 48 "ant debug" will automatically insert debuggable==true, while "ant release" 49 will not. 50 If debuggable=true is set, then "ant release" will actually do a debug build. 51 - Automatic Proguard support in release builds. Only need to have a proguard.config 52 property in default.properties that points to a proguard config file. 53 - new overridable Ant javac properties: java.encoding, java.source, and java.target 54 (default to "ascii", "1.5" and "1.5") 55 56 57 Revision 7 (09/2010): 58 - Support for Ant rules provided by the Tools components (override the one in 59 the platform component) 60 - Added support for libraries with library dependencies. 61 - Support for aidl files in library projects. 62 - Support for extension targets in Ant build to perform tasks between the 63 normal tasks: -pre-build, -pre-compile, -post-compile. 64 - Headless SDK update.
