• BadgeStyle methods are now fluent
• improved ProfileDrawerItem
• removed a lot of old code
• improved flexibility

• no longer inflate an additional ScrimInsetsFrameLayout but use the DrawerLayout as root now
• millions of other changes and improvements
• improved performance
• improved stability

sample

• updated all sample activities to reflect changes of the MaterialDrawer v5.0.0
• updated all sample items to fit the new item definition
• added 2 new sample CustomDrawerItems
• some bugfixes
• improved stability, including better animations

general

• Gradle 2.11
• Android build tools 2.0.0-beta4
• now also on jCenter

MIGRATION

• the identifier was changed from int to long as the internal adapter (FastAdapter) uses long to identify items (as the Adapter does)
• v5.0.0 no longer sets the FULL_SCREEN flag to get the drawer below the StatusBar it now uses the fitsSystemWindows everywhere. This should improve compatiblity with a lot of things like the CoordinatorLayout and should also improve compatiblity with future Android updates
• removed the following methods:
  • DrawerUIUtils.getScreenWidth -> moved to UIUtils from the Materialize library
  • DrawerBuilder.withTranslucentStatusBarProgrammatically -> no longer necessary as we now depend on the fitsSystemWindows flag
  • StatusBarColor can now be set via the Drawer.getDrawerLayout().setStatusBarBackgroundColor(color)
  • DrawerBuilder.keyboardSupportEnabled -> KeyboardUtil should no longer be necessary
• StatusBar on API < 21 is no longer colored, because of the changed way how we display the Drawer under the StatusBar
• DrawerItems changed. Please take a look at the CustomDrawerItems from the sample or the default ones, to add the changes to your CustomDrawerItems
