This update:
Adds a chapter on hosting slices, plus updates the existing coverage of publishing slices
Updates the Android 9.0 appendix for the final release of 9.0, plus extends
coverage of the StrictMode callback option added in 9.0
Adds a section on using ListAdapter with RecyclerView
Updates the material on LeakCanary for version 1.6.1
Updates the chapter on Samsung DeX to cover the DeX Pad
Updates the chapter on Chrome OS to cover Chrome OS tablets and Chromeboxes
(Chrome OS desktop devices)
Retires the chapter on embedding a Web server in an Android app
Has a slight change to the PDF formatting rules to try to keep images and
their preceding paragraphs together
Has other bug fixes and minor improvements
The timing of the next update to this book depends a bit on the release
schedules for AndroidX 1.0.0 and Android Studio 3.2. My guess is that this
will come out in 2-3 months, with lots of other material showing up in other
books between now and then.
