Version 1.8.1

Version 1.8.1 is a bug-fix release following the main 1.8.0 release. In particular, it addresses the following issues:

• Fresco's SoLoader configuration no longer crashes with certain pro-guard configurations (issue: #2039)
• In previous versions WebP image might fail to load in certain configurations (commit: 06fe371)

Version 1.8.0

Version 1.8.0 contains several improvements and bug fixes, including:

• Fixed animated image rendering for dynamic frame dimensions (086fd1d)
• Fixed downsampling for PNGs (e2c464e)
• Fixed WebPs with alpha decoding on API <= 17 devices (705b774)
• Supporting wide color gamut decoding on Android 8+ (4a64df0)
• Fixed handling pin bitmap errors (a08f9e7, f5eb85e)

Breaking changes

Switched to using SoLoader (aef3790)

SoLoader has been released for a while now, and updated just last week. We've made the decision to add a hard dependency on it and make SoLoader the one and only native code loader that we use in Fresco. API-wise, this means SoLoaderShim is gone. If you were using some other native loading library (e.g. ReLinker), you can either:

• keep both and just delete your SoLoaderShim implementation, but this will make your APK size bigger
• switch to SoLoader for the rest of your app as well and remove the other dependency

Version 1.4.0

Animated Image Changes

Rewritten implementation for animated images (GIFs and animated WebPs) with better performance, particularly when showing multiple GIFs.

This brings improved frame caching and memory management, better control for users of Fresco, new features and some GIF rendering issues have been fixed.

Other Updates in 1.4.0

• Support for Bitmap.prepareToDraw to upload bitmaps to the GPU ahead of time (as suggested by @
  ChrisCraik) - enabled via ImagePipelineExperiments
• Fixed Shared Element Transitions. You have to manually call draweeView.setLegacyVisibilityHandlingEnabled(true)
• Per-image custom drawable factory support
• Caching improvements
  • You can now set a custom cache trim strategy for the image pipeline
  • Added BaseCacheEventListener that implements CacheEventListener for convenience
• Easier synchronous requests with DataSources#waitForFinalResult
• Fixed IncreasingQualityDataSource to keep the low res image if the high res request fails
• Various other bug fixes and improvements: BitmapCounterProvider, Media Variations, Progressive JPEGs, EXIF parsing, ZoomableDraweeView touch logic, DraweeView attributes in Android Studio

Breaking Changes

AnimatedDrawable

The old animation code has been removed, including AbstractAnimatedDrawable, AnimatedDrawable, or AnimatedDrawableSupport . Change your casts to AnimatedDrawable2.
We also removed com.facebook.fresco:animated-base-support since it is no longer needed.

DrawableFactory

Moved DrawableFactory to com.facebook.imagepipeline.drawable.DrawableFactory. Please change your imports if you're using custom drawable factories.

Small cache threshold

Removed this option from ImagePipelineExperiments as well as related code.

Internal changes

Added void onNewResult(T newResult, @Status int status) to Consumer interface.

Removed deprecated methods

• ImagePipeline#getDataSourceSupplier(ImageRequest, Object, boolean)
• EncodedImage#setEncodedCacheKey(CacheKey)
• EncodedImage#getEncodedCacheKey()
• GenericDraweeHierarchyBuilder#setActualImageMatrix()
• GenericDraweeHierarchyBuilder#getActualImageMatrix()

Sample Apps (now with Kotlin!)

We've updated our Showcase sample app to include more samples and merged other sample apps into it.

There is also a new Kotlin sample app that shows how to use Fresco with Kotlin.

Version 1.3.0

Version 1.3.0 is mainly a bugfix release.

• Showcase application improved and new examples added
• New onUltimateProducerReached() callback method added to ProducerListener.
• It's now possible to load resources using a qualifying resource URI. This allows for loading resources that are not part of the application's main package.

Breaking Changes

PooledByteBuffer and PooledByteBufferInputStream

These two classes have moved package from com.facebook.imagepipeline.memory to com.facebook.imagepipeline.memory. If you directly make use of either class, simply update your imports.

ProducerListener

The ProducerListener interface has a new callback: onUltimateProducerReached(). This identifies the producer which was ultimately responsible for producing the result which was passed back, so can give an idea about how many requests are satisfied from caches.

If you have an implementation of ProducerListener or RequestListener you will need to add an implementation of this method.
