Notes on patches

To make Bazel's use of the official Android manifest merger tool consistent with the tools:targetApi attribute., com.android.tools.build_manifest-merger_25.0.0-patched.jar contains a patched OtherOperationType.class. The patched class is generated by compiling build-system/manifest-merger/src/main/java/com/android/manifmerger/OtherOperationType.java from commit 8fff824b40 in studio-master-dev with the following patch:

Commit 8fff824b40 was chosen as it was the latest commit before the release of the manifest-merger:25.0.0 artifact.

The following jars contain the same contents as their versions without -stripped, except that we removed some classes from them.

  • com.android.tools.layoutlib_layoutlib_26.1.2-stripped.jar
  • com.android.tools_sdk-common_25.0.0-stripped.jar

Classes removed: com/android/ide/common/util/AssetUtil.class com/android/ide/common/util/AssetUtil$FillEffect.class com/android/ide/common/util/AssetUtil$ShadowEffect.class com/android/ide/common/rendering/LayoutLibrary.class com/android/ide/common/rendering/api/IImageFactory.class com/android/ide/common/rendering/api/RenderSession.class com/android/ide/common/rendering/StaticRenderSession.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/VdElement.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/EllipseSolver.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/SvgTree.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/SvgGroupNode.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/VdPath.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/VdPath$Node.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/SvgNode.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/VdPreview.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/SvgLeafNode.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/VdTree.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/VdNodeRender.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/VdIcon.class com/android/ide/common/vectordrawable/VdGroup.class

These are unused in the bazel code base (transitively) and were the last remaining bits on the java.desktop dependency.
