Audio_service: I can't build in release mode

[MahdiPishguy]

when i try to build apk in release mode i get this errors:

flutter build apk
You are building a fat APK that includes binaries for android-arm, android-arm64, android-x64.
If you are deploying the app to the Play Store, it's recommended to use app bundles or split the APK to reduce the APK size.
    To generate an app bundle, run:
        flutter build appbundle --target-platform android-arm,android-arm64,android-x64
        Learn more on: https://developer.android.com/guide/app-bundle
    To split the APKs per ABI, run:
        flutter build apk --target-platform android-arm,android-arm64,android-x64 --split-per-abi

me too

This seems to be the problem described here https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/45680 .

The two culprits are audioplayer and flutter_isolate. Neither authors are maintaining their plugins anymore although the author of the latter has granted me access to make and publish fixes on his behalf, so at least for that one I can do something about it. For audioplayer, it is only a dependency of the example which is not as serious, but I plan to replace that dependency by just_audio soon. I'll try to get this all working tonight.

[ryanheise]

I've just published 0.5.6 which fixes the flutter_isolate issue, but audioplayer can't be fixed unless you fork it yourself and upgrade its compileSdkVersion to 28 and also update its gradle wrapper version. Alternatively, you can try my new just_audio plugin although I want to get the iOS side fully working before I switch the example over to it.

I'd be interested to know if the latest release works for you, and if not, you might need to also make the same updates to your app's compileSdkVersion and gradle wrapper version.

[rohansohonee]

The latest release is working.
This issue can be closed.

Glad to hear it works.
