Package all language resources in device-specific APKs
Description
This MR sets a flag required for bundletool
to include (not split) language resources.
How Has This Been Tested?
APKs generated by bundletool
were evaluated before and after disabling the split flag.
Steps:
- Obtain bundletool
- Construct a device specific json file (see example below)
{
"supportedAbis": ["arm64-v8a", "armeabi-v7a"],
"supportedLocales": ["en", "fr"],
"screenDensity": 640,
"sdkVersion": 30
}
- Build VLC aab
- Run
java -jar bundletool-all-<ver>.jar build-apks --device-spec=my-spec.json --bundle=app-vlcBundle.aab --output=vlc.apks
- Run
unzip -l vlc.apks
