Android Studio

Android Studio is an Android app development platform.

Gradle-based build support. Android-specific refactoring and quick fixes. Lint tools to catch performance, usability, version compatibility and other problems. ProGuard and app-signing capabilities. Template-based wizards to create common Android designs and components. A rich layout editor that allows you to drag-and-drop UI components, preview layouts on multiple screen configurations, and much more. Built-in support for Google Cloud Platform, making it easy to integrate Google Cloud Messaging and App Engine as server-side components.

Note: while Finder states this as version 3.1, the developer refers to it as 3.1.2

Bug fixes:

• In some cases, Android Studio hung indefinitely during exit.
• Builds configured with source sets failed with the following message when Instant Run was enabled:
• "The SourceSet name is not recognized by the Android Gradle Plugin."
• When Instant Run was enabled, builds of new Kotlin projects failed when triggered by the Run command.
• During editing of the build.gradle file, there was sometimes a noticeable delay between typing a character and the character appearing on the screen.
• Build failures occurred during dexing in some projects with large numbers of modules or external dependencies, with the following error message: "RejectedExecutionException: Thread limit exceeded replacing blocked worker"
• The computation of the D8 main DEX list was not taking into account some reflective invocations.

This update also includes changes that make running lint checks from Gradle much faster in some scenarios.
