libpl_droidsonroids_gif.so file size of the explosion

[panpf]

I noticed a single libpl_droidsonroids_gif.so file size from the 1.1.7 version of the 30KB soaring to the current 300KB, I would like to know what happened? Now the size of some difficult to accept!

It doesn't seem to be intended. I'll investigate this.

There are 2 reasons:

1. in version 1.1.7 there was 2 separate .so files (additionally libpl_droidsonroids_gif_surface.so) now, everything is located in libpl_droidsonroids_gif.so
2. version 1.2.3 started using externalNativeBuild from Android Gradle plugin instead of custom gradle scripts for NDK to compile native sources. This caused major size growth.

Current sources compiled using old script gives libpl_droidsonroids_gif.so having 42KB.
I'll fix it ASAP.

It turns out that -g option is added implicitly when using externalNativeBuild which causes adding debuging symbols and library size growth.

Fixed in 1.2.5-SNAPSHOT. Size of whole AAR reduced from 881505 to 264435 bytes.
Thanks for the report.
