This looks awesome and timely, lgtm for the most part. I just had a few questions before approval.

Ping @gaaclarke. Looks like this is good for a re-review.

gaaclarke

@chinmaygarde So, the code looks good to me. Here is my concern: I don't understand the need for the code. This is dealing with an aspect of Android development I'm not familiar with. I would like someone from the Android team to verify that this code is needed and appropriate. If this code is just providing a convenience, I'd error on the side of caution and avoid adding more logic, unless of course the alternative is super inconvenient. cc @reidbaker who is ramping up but has some context on the FlutterEngineGroup and would have a good idea of how to make this decision.

I think the thesis of this PR is that this doesn't provide any new functionality, but provides a java wrapper around metadata which is more convenient, right? Is that expected for Android developers, does that scale across all uses of the metadata? I'm ill equipped to make that decision.

@gaaclarke Hi, thanks for reply. I would like to provide some context about this PR. If anything is wrong, please let me know

EngineGroup has provided api spawn allowing us to use a lightweight engine. But currently, the default creation in FlutterActivity is heavyweight engines. So developer have to manage the EngineGroup, extends FlutterActivity and overwrite provideEngine functions to use of lightweight engine. This PR provides a way for users to directly create FlutterActivity using a lightweight engine without having to worry about managing the engine. Like you said this provide an easier way for developers to use it, but I think developers don't have to care about this, what do you think?

but provides a java wrapper around metadata which is more convenient, right? Is that expected for Android developers, does that scale across all uses of the metadata? I'm ill equipped to make that decision.

IIUC, Referring to EXTRA_DART_ENTRYPOINT modification? Because we may start multiple engines, they may have different entrypoints, so we can't determine which entrypoint each engine should go to during the coding phase, So using MetaData in this case doesn't seem to make sense.

gaaclarke

Thanks, that helps. I have an outstanding PR that starts making activities and fragments use an engine group by default too. So there is probably going to be an engine group that is available through that. Since we are going to start using engine groups by default, accepting the maintenance of code that makes their usage easier makes sense to me.

gaaclarke · 2022-11-30T17:25:01Z

@GaryQian the code looks good here and the tests. The justification makes sense to me. I want to make sure that it matches Android expectations, since you'd have a better idea.

Nayuta403 · 2022-12-04T12:29:28Z

@xster is an expert on the subject and please help review the code :-D
