What's New in this Release

Android Pie Support (API 28)

We're excited to announce Xamarin.Android support for Android Pie (API 28). Android Pie introduces new features including display cutout support, notification enhancements, multi-camera support, AnimatedImageDrawable, and much more.

Aapt2

Xamarin.Android has Experimental support for the Android Asset Packaging Tool v2.0. aapt2 allows for faster project rebuilds when an Android Resource or Android Asset changes. This will not help with initial project builds:

Tool Clean Build Build Touching only C# Build Touching only Resources
Aapt 00:00:51.74 00:00:08.91 00:00:25.26
Aapt2 00:00:50.70 00:00:08.64 00:00:08.44

Aapt2 support is currently disabled by default. To enable it, please set the $(AndroidUseAapt2) MSBuild property to True within your .csproj:

<PropertyGroup>
  <AndroidUseAapt2>True</AndroidUseAapt2>
</PropertyGroup>

Enabling Aapt2 support requires that Aapt2 be installed; it is included in the Android SDK build-tools 25.0.2 package or later. If aapt2 cannot be found, then an XA0112 warning will be logged, and aapt will be used instead.

If aapt2 version returns an unrecognized value, then aapt2 support will be disabled, an XA0111 warning will be logged, and aapt will be used instead.

Binding Assemblies and $(AndroidCodegenTarget)

Xamarin.Android 9.0 changes the default value of the $(AndroidCodegenTarget) MSBuild property within Bindings Libraries to XAJavaInterop1, from XamarinAndroid.

This change results in binding assemblies which are smaller, faster, and generate less garbage during invocations.

Unfortunately, this change means that the resulting binding assemblies cannot be used with Xamarin.Android 6.0 and earlier. Xamarin.Android 6.0 is over 2.5 years old at this point, so we do not believe that this will be a significant problem.

Bindings and Code-Behind

To make Android development more pleasant when working with Android Resources, we've provided two new features known as bindings and code-behind.

To enable these new features, set the $(AndroidGenerateLayoutBindings) MSBuild property to True in your .csproj file:

<PropertyGroup>
    <AndroidGenerateLayoutBindings>true</AndroidGenerateLayoutBindings>
</PropertyGroup>
Bindings

Bindings generates a class per each Android layout file which contains strongly typed properties for all of the Android Resource Ids in the layout file. This allows you to instantiate a new Binding to then access your respective View classes in your resource file without calling FindViewById().

For example, take the following layout file:

<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:xamarin="http://schemas.xamarin.com/android/xamarin/tools">
  <Button android:id="@+id/myButton" />
  <fragment
      android:id="@+id/log_fragment"
      android:name="commonsamplelibrary.LogFragment"
      xamarin:managedType="CommonSampleLibrary.LogFragment"
  />
  <fragment
      android:id="@+id/secondary_log_fragment"
      android:name="CommonSampleLibrary.LogFragment"
  />
</LinearLayout>

You would then access the binding in your Activity to provide your Views:

partial class MainActivity : Activity {
  protected override void OnCreate (Bundle savedInstanceState)
  {
    base.OnCreate (savedInstanceState);

    SetContentView (Resource.Layout.Main);
    var binding     = new Binding.Main (this);
    Button button   = binding.myButton;
    button.Click   += delegate {
        button.Text = $"{count++} clicks!";
    };
  }
}
Code-Behind

Code-behind generates a partial class that contains strongly typed properties for all of the Android Resource Ids in the layout file. Code-behind builds on-top of the Binding mechanism in which you can opt-in to Code-Behind generation using our new xamarin:classes XML attribute which is a ; separated list of full class names to be generated.

For example, take the following layout file:

<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:xamarin="http://schemas.xamarin.com/android/xamarin/tools"
    xamarin:classes="Example.MainActivity">
  <Button android:id="@+id/myButton" />
  <fragment
      android:id="@+id/log_fragment"
      android:name="commonsamplelibrary.LogFragment"
      xamarin:managedType="CommonSampleLibrary.LogFragment"
  />
  <fragment
      android:id="@+id/secondary_log_fragment"
      android:name="CommonSampleLibrary.LogFragment"
  />
</LinearLayout>

You would then access Views in your Activity directly:

partial class MainActivity : Activity {
  protected override void OnCreate (Bundle savedInstanceState)
  {
    base.OnCreate (savedInstanceState);

    SetContentView (Resource.Layout.Main);

    myButton.Click += delegate {
        button.Text = $"{count++} clicks!";
    };
  }
}
