Is androidLockWorkaround option still needed?
brodycj opened this issue · comments
The androidLockWorkaround
option was added back in early 2015, as a workaround for issue #193, and it only applies when the androidDatabaseProvider: 'system'
(formerly androidDatabaseImplementation: 2
) is used as documented.
This option has been a bit of a burden to maintain in the documentation which I have to synchronize from time to time between multiple plugin versions. I would like to deprecate and remove this option if it is no longer needed.
Adding to a couple of lists:
- #922 - breaking changes coming in the near future
- #923 - quirks & other issues such as corruption warnings
P.S. I did find an interesting resource here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_version_history
It shows Lollipop 5.0 - 5.1.x released in November 2014, soon before #193 was reported. And I am definitely not ready to drop Lollipop support anytime soon. I am starting to think it may be safest to keep this option until Android pre-6.0 support is removed.
