v1.0.0

IMPORTANT:
Always make sure to update your local clone of DexPatcher-gradle-tools.

First stable release of the DexPatcher Gradle plugins:

• Supports the Java 8-based Android toolset:
  • Android Studio from v2.2.0 on.
  • Java-based Android Plugin for Gradle v2.2.0 through v2.2.3.
  • Tested with Gradle v2.14.1 and v3.0 through v3.5.1.
• Supports the legacy Java 7-based Android toolset:
  • Android Studio up to v2.1.3.
  • Groovy-based Android Plugin for Gradle v1.5.0 through v2.1.3.
  • Adapts to Groovy/Java plugin differences via reflection.
  • Tested with Gradle v2.9 through v2.14.1. (But see the Android Plugin requirements.)
• Supports javac/dx and the deprecated Jack/Jill compiler toolchains.
• Supports Java 8 language features and patching of Android 7.x apps thanks to my updated builds of dex2jar.

Limitations:

• Instant run must be disabled.
• Android Plugin for Gradle v2.3.x is not supported due to a blocking bug in the plugin.

Changes:

• Simplified the structure of local dependencies:
  • Removed the per-plugin dependency groups.
  • Coalesced dependencies into the added and provided scopes.
• Extended the officially-supported project property set:
  • dexpatcher.dir
  • dexpatcher.lib.dir
  • dexpatcher.lib.added.dir
  • dexpatcher.lib.provided.dir
  • dexpatcher.tool.dir
  • dexpatcher.tool.apktool.dir
  • dexpatcher.tool.apktool.framework.dir
  • dexpatcher.tool.apktool.aapt.file
  • dexpatcher.tool.dex2jar.dir
  • dexpatcher.tool.dexpatcher.dir
• Added a project property access API for build scripts.
• Added the apkFileOrDir property to the apk-library plugin extension object.
• Reworked the extension object hierarchy.
• Fail fast on misconfigured setups.
• Updated samples.
