This is the latest version of the plugin supported by the Gradle version
in use at the moment (7.6).
Note that this also upgrades the R8 optimizer to a version (4.0.48) that
now uses "full mode" optimization by default.
This also splits off Android projects to run under Java 11 (Gradle
plugin requirement) while the other projects continue to run under Java
8.
Introduce an AsyncService interface in the generated code and move the methods from <service>ImplBase to default implementation of the interface.
* update pom files to allow java 1.8
* Add a bindService(<service>Async) method
* Change TestServiceImpl to use the interface and include a bind method instead of extending TestServiceImplBase.
This can avoid creating an additional 736 tasks (previously 502 out of
1591 were not created). That's not all that important as the build time
is essentially the same, but this lets us see the poor behavior of the
protobuf plugin in our own project and increase our understanding of how
to avoid task creation when developing the plugin. Of the tasks still
being created, protobuf is the highest contributor with 165 tasks,
followed by maven-publish with 76 and appengine with 53. The remaining
59 are from our own build, but indirectly caused by maven-publish.
This moves our depedencies into a plain file that can be read and
updated by tooling. While the current tooling is not particularly better
than just using gradle-versions-plugin, it should put us on better
footing. gradle-versions-plugin is actually pretty nice, but will be
incompatible with Gradle 8, so we need to wait a bit to see what the
future holds.
Left libraries as an alias for libs to reduce the commit size and make
it easier to revert if we don't end up liking this approach.
We're using Gradle 7.3.3 where it was an incubating fetaure. But in
Gradle 7.4 is became stable.
Two main incompatibilities existed in the copy of protos in grpc-proto:
no SimpleContext and an Empty method argument was replaced with a
message. "Context" is a very old word for "Metadata" back from the days
before the current gRPC protocol. We don't need that message in
particular, and well-known protos actually works in Protobuf Lite these
days, so we can swap to wrappers.proto's StringValue and don't need to
upstream a change to grpc-proto. The argument problem is fixed just by
changing the type in the Java code.
With the incompatibilities fixed, do a sync from grpc-proto and include
interop-testing.
- bump android plugin version to 4.2.0
- migrate deprecated android.support dependencies to androidx dependencies
- bump `targetSdkVersion` to 29
- temporarily ignore lint error for 'MissingClass' due to #8799
- run android CIs with `-Pandroid.useAndroidX=true -Pandroid.enableJetifier=true` flags
- android examples are still using android.support dependencies, will not be updated in this PR.
The tests run as part of the existing android-interop-testing job.
We needed to modify the manifest of the apk built under android-interop-testing to declare Android Services used by the binder tests.
This can be used by annotation processors to avoid processing the
gRPC-generated code. The normal Generated annotation only has SOURCE
retention, so isn't available to annotation processors.
I don't include the service name within the annotation as that assumes
we'll never have need for any other type of generated class. If there's
a request for exposing service name via an annotation in the future, we
can make an RpcService annotation or the like.
Fixes#8158
failOnVersionConflict has never been good for us. It is equivalent to
Maven dependencyConvergence which we discourage our users to use because
it is too tempermental and _creates_ version skew issues over time.
However, we had no real alternative for determining if our deps would be
misinterpeted by Maven.
failOnVersionConflict has been a constant drain and makes it really hard
to do seemingly-trivial upgrades. As evidenced by protobuf/build.gradle
in this change, it also caused _us_ to introduce a version downgrade.
This introduces our own custom requireUpperBoundDeps implementation so
that we can get back to simple dependency upgrades _and_ increase our
confidence in a consistent dependency tree.
This change can have large impact from two aspects:
1. It calls out a _large_ impact on the _few_ Java 7 users.
2. It may have _small_ impact on the _many_ Android users.
https://github.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/4671 tracks gRPC's removal of
Java 7 support. We are quite eager to drop Java 7 support as that would
allow using new language features like default methods. Guava is also
dropping Java 7 support and starting in 30.1 it will warn when used on
Java 7. The purpose of the warning is to help discover users that are
negatively impacted by dropping Java 7 before it becomes a bigger
problem.
The Guava logging check was implemented in such a way that there is an
optional class that uses Java 8 bytecode. While the class is optional at
runtime, the Android build system notices when dexing and fails if
Java 8 language featutres are not enabled. We believe this will not be a
problem for most Android users, but they may need to add to their build:
```
android {
compileOptions {
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}
}
```

androidx.appcompat is not ready to be used internally. This change downgrades android-interop-testing's target SDK version to 26 and use android.support's appcompat instead.
Bumps target SDK version of grpc-android, grpc-cronet, grpc-android-interop-testing to API 29. Major related changes are:
- Migrated android.support to androidx, which is required for Android Q.
- android.net.NetworkInfo is deprecated in SDK 29, suppressed compiler warnings as it is needed for supporting old Android versions.
- Robolectric requires Java 9+ for Android 29, which causes unit tests in grpc-cronet fail. Added annotation to emulate Android 28 for grpc-cronet's test.
- Upgraded Android dependencies accordingly in android-interop-testing.
Resolves#7741
Some of the static methods in generated code have the same method name but different package name, such `ClientCalls.asyncClientStreamingCall` and `ServerCalls.asyncClientStreamingCall`. It's less readable using static import than using full-qualified method name in-place.
Android Studio gives warning: "The minSdk version should not be declared in the android manifest file". Typically minSdkVersion should be configured in build.gradle, it was set in manifest since internally we use Blaze. cl/316513856 is created to update the internal BUILD file that configures minSdkVersion.
- Use gradle configuration `api` for dependencies that are part of grpc public api signatures.
- Replace deprecated gradle configurations `compile`, `testCompile`, `runtime` and `testRuntime`.
- With minimal change in dependencies: If we need dep X and Y to compile our code, and if X transitively depends on Y, then our build would still pass even if we only include X as `compile`/`implementation` dependency for our project. Ideally we should include both X and Y explicitly as `implementation` dependency for our project, but in this PR we don't add the missing Y if it is previously missing.
Decouples grpc-core with census, while still preserve the default integration of census in grpc-core. Users wishing to enable census needs to add grpc-census to their runtime classpath.
- Created a grpc-census module:
- Moved CensusStatsModule.java and CensusTracingModule.java into grpc-census from grpc-core. CensusModuleTests.java is also moved. They now belong to io.grpc.census package.
Moved DeprecatedCensusConstants.java into io.grpc.census.internal (is this necessary?) in grpc-census.
- Created CensusStatsAccessor.java and CensusTracingAccessor.java, which are used to create census ClientInterceptor and ServerStreamTracer.Factory.
- Everything in grpc-census are package private, except the accessor classes. They only publicly expose ClientInterceptor and ServerStreamTracer.Factory, no Census specific types are exposed.
- Use runtime reflection to load and apply census stats/tracing to channel/server builders, if grpc-census is found in runtime classpath.
- Removed special APIs on AbstractManagedChannelImplBuilder and AbstractServerImplBuilder for overriding census module. They are only used for testing. Now we changed tests to apply Census ClientInterceptor and ServerStreamTracer.Factory just as normal interceptor/stream tracer factory. Test writer is responsible for taking care of the ordering concerns of interceptors and stream tracer factories.
