CrosswalkAnimatable and Android 7

[tgensol]

Hi there,

It looks like on Android 7.0, if we set as asked :

<preference name="CrosswalkAnimatable" value="true" />

The app crashed and does not want to start.

I tried to remove it from my config.xml and add it, and always my app works without it, and not with it.

Regards

Same problem here. @tgensol did you managed to solve it?

[tgensol]

@gustavosysm I changed the XWalkCordovaView.java of the crosswalk plugin for not enabling the CrosswalkAnimatable boolean if it is Android 7.0 or superior.... I did not find something else to do at this time

This is a major issue, as most apps with crosswalk and CrosswalkAnimatable = true will crash on android 7.
Also, I don't think this bug will be fixed from crosswalk, as they have abandoned crosswalk development.

I've got the same problem. Is there any (good) workaround?

I like the plugin and it would be very bad to throw it away after integrating it in my application...

[gustavosysm]

My workaround was to change de file XWalkCordovaView.java.

`boolean prefAnimatable = false;
boolean manifestAnimatable = false;

        if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
            prefAnimatable = preferences == null ? false : preferences.getBoolean("CrosswalkAnimatable", false);
            manifestAnimatable = ai.metaData == null ? false : ai.metaData.getBoolean("CrosswalkAnimatable");
        }`

Then I had to remove and add platform again.
