Remove Jetifier

[mickael-menu]

Changed

• Jetifier is not required anymore, you can remove android.enableJetifier=true from your gradle.properties if you were using Readium as a local clone.

---

• Fixes Remove Jetifier - migrate to AndroidX - Gradle build slowdown #609

---

I addressed this by taking the jetified artifacts in my Gradle cache (running jetifier-standalone directly failed) and importing them directly in the project. A downside is that now we have all the native libraries as part of the repository, which adds ~40 MB.

This is still a draft because I haven't tested it thoroughly yet.

Couldn't you put the JAR into pdfium-document libs? pdium-navigator depends on it.

Not without using api instead of implementation which would leak the public API of pdfium-android into Readium.

That's weird, I can see no reference to a PDFium symbol in pdfium-navigator.

[mickael-menu]

It uses the symbols indirectly through AndroidPdfViewer APIs.

That's what I thought. So I expect that compiling pdf-navigator doesn't need PDFium: it only has to be available on the classpath at runtime.

[mickael-menu]

It doesn't compile, you can try it out.

Okay! I didn't expect gradle to check dependencies of precompiled JAR.
