11.6.0

Fixes

This release includes three fixes:

• Render target creation was at risk of producing an ANR during periods of high contention on the worker. This was resolved by making creation asynchronous and lazy at the time of first use.
• (Legacy) If data binding values were updated during a frame advance, there was a chance of corrupting the buffer of data bind updates. This was resolved through locking the buffer.
• (Legacy) If a Rive file had no data binding available but the user requested autoBind, the runtime would throw an error. This has been downgraded to logging an error.

11.5.0

Features

This release introduces hardware bitmap rendering as a method of rendering Rive content to an Android Canvas. Software bitmaps have been available since the release of the new API, but would be too slow for real time use due to the expense of copying between buffers. With hardware bitmaps, apps can achieve the same performance as Compose but instead rendering to a canvas. See the HardwareBitmapCanvasActivity sample for usage.

Software rendering has been moved to a new class, SoftwareRenderBuffer, and the old RenderBuffer class is marked deprecated. In the future, we may move to an asynchronous API.

This release also improves on tracing, adding more tracing to the Legacy API for easier comparisons, as well as the new canvas path.

Finally, this release refactors how surfaces work in the new API, making them closable from the main thread.

Fixes

This release includes a speculative fix for failures to link libandroid.so. See this commit for details. It may be that it surfaces a different, root issue, which may require an additional fix to resolve.

11.4.1

Fixes

This release includes 3 important fixes for the Android runtime:

1. Properly handle the loss of OpenGL context, restoring it after loss with automatic recovery.
2. Fixed a race condition during tear down if the surface was simultaneously being resized.
3. Fixed a linking error on older ARMv7 devices that did not support thread local storage (TLS) relocations
   • Manifested as java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: dlopen failed: unknown reloc type 17.
   • Introduced by libsodium used for cryptographic random number generation (RNG) for scripting.
   • Solved by forcing emulated TLS at build time.

11.2.1

Fixes

Removes debug symbols originally added in version 11.0.0, intended for debug builds only, but leaking into release builds. Users without proper NDK configuration would not strip these symbols and see increased deliverable app sizes. These symbols have now been removed again. In the future we will distribute symbols with builds in a side channel to be determined.
