| Description: |
| D8 is a dexer that converts java byte code to dex code. R8 is a proguard-like |
| optimizer that also has the ability to dex. D8 is found within R8's repo. |
| |
| Local Modifications: |
| Turning off vertical and horizontal class merging, as described in |
| https://issuetracker.google.com/122902374#comment11. We should no longer make |
| this modification once the linked bug is fixed. |
| |
| Turning off nullable inlining since it caused a performance regression here: |
| crbug.com/965189. If R8 ever mitigates this, we can re-enable this. |
| |
| Turning off outlining because it caused issues when synchronized proguarding |
| Trichrome due to illegal dex references (crbug.com/956839). Will only be used |
| for android_apk() targets that set `disable_r8_outlining = true`): |
| |
