AndroidIDE Version v2.7.1-beta Changelog

This patch release primarily focuses on making AndroidIDE available on F-Droid and includes some minor fixes.

Thanks to all the people who have contributed to this release (including our Crowdin translators).

Important notes

AndroidIDE is now accessible on F-Droid! Please be aware that F-Droid builds have a distinct signature. Installing these builds over existing GitHub versions or vice versa will result in installation failure.

Users with multiple JDKs can now select the JDK for Gradle builds in IDE Preferences -> Build & Run -> JDK version. Changes take effect after restarting AndroidIDE.

The $PREFIX/etc/ide-environment.properties file is no longer used for setting environment variables in Gradle builds or the terminal.

This release addresses the following issues:

Resolved a bug causing the 'Clone repository' feature to consistently fail (#1608).
Fixed occasional NullPointerException during the creation of ActionData for editor text actions.
Resolved an IllegalStateException occurring when the build finishes after the activity is destroyed (#1604).
Corrected the use of an invalid publishing version name for Gradle Plugin and LogSender dependencies in F-Droid builds (#1620).
Fixed the issue where the IDE failed to recognize the installed JDK 21 (#1616).
Addressed occasional crashes when putting the IDE in the background due to non-existing openedFiles.json file (#1621).
Fixed incorrect display of project synchronization message when executing 'Sync project' action with unsaved Gradle files (#1594).
Resolved build failure caused by apply plugin: '...' syntax in Gradle build scripts with a 'no repositories are defined' error (#1274).
'Cancel build' action now properly cancels project initialization.
Set android:foregroundServiceType for LogSenderService to prevent crashes when targeting API 34.
Resolved inconsistent behavior caused by a duplicate preference key in keyboard-related terminal preferences (#1624).

We believe that you'll have a delightful experience using AndroidIDE v2.7.1-beta!
