Thanks for mentioning. Yes, Android P appears to be planned to ship with version 018 of the Vdex file format.

I'll wait for the second preview release (I'm guessing it will be announced around June) to ensure that this is the locked version from libart to ship with Android P and then I'll add support.

Android P beta version is ready

I think I'll wait for preview-3 to be released first. They already bumped VDEX version from 018 to 019:

DP3 is out https://developer.android.com/preview/download

I think you're pressing the developer too much, be patient

Google has not pushed the preview-3 sources in AOSP yet (https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest/+refs).

Google realase it today https://android.googlesource.com/platform/art/+/android-p-preview-3/runtime/vdex_file.h#96

Ok it seems it has been locked to version 019, so I'll start working the Android-P support.

Btw it seems that Google has released with Android-P the oatdump patches I've submitted a few months back. Therefore, you can always use the ART oatdump utility (--export-dex-to flag) to decompile the optimized bytecode.

@anestisb

reply my post

I need to first resolve the newly introduced Compact DEX issue (https://twitter.com/anestisb/status/1028568907542671360), so Android P support might take some time since many things are broken.

[ingbrzy]

OK no problem..

here is Pie ROM for tests.. thank you http://bigota.d.miui.com/8.8.10/miui_MIMIX2S_8.8.10_22c92b6efe_9.0.zip

Thank you for your support take the necessary time

Android Pie support has been completed. Please raise a separate bug if you spot any issues with a specific Vdex file.
