Hi there,
I'm a developer on https://github.com/googlesamples/easypermissions and we're trying to figure how best to handle the Android team's announcement that framework fragments are now deprecated in favor of the support library ones. We're considering deprecating support for framework fragments and then killing all support once Android P launches in Q3.
What are your plans? And to the community here: is that a reasonable move or should framework fragment support be kept around for a few more releases?
We have yet to discuss that among the contributors. Personally, I feel the same way about deprecating it now, then removing support altogether in a future release. It would probably a minor version increment to allow for a few critical, cherry-picked bug fixes to go into the "older" version.
@hotchemi, @shiraji, let's keep this in mind.
@SUPERCILEX @mannodermaus thank you for your proposal! I'm for deprecating it in next update and kill all support after P launching 👍 It'd be really beneficial for maintainers presumably 😀
Addressed on https://github.com/permissions-dispatcher/PermissionsDispatcher/pull/454 and it'll be shipped in next release! Thank you for your proposal~!
