building gallery for Android with local engine fails

[mraleph]

(Note: assuming that https://github.com/flutter/gallery/pull/525 is landed. Otherwise you first need to apply that on top)

$ git clone https://github.com/flutter/gallery
$ cd gallery

Hi Thanks for filing the issue, took me while to setup the engine locallly but finally I've pulled your PR locally into clone Gallery repository when running in debug mode, I am not seeing any such error

I couldn't run profile mode flutter_embedding_profile.pom wasn't found in the local engine out directory., Any ideas?

[jason-simmons]

As a workaround, try adding this to the subprojects section of Gallery's android/build.gradle:

    afterEvaluate {
        if (plugins.hasPlugin('com.android.library')) {
            dependencies {
                implementation "io.flutter:flutter_embedding_profile:+"
            }
        }
    }

I couldn't run profile mode flutter_embedding_profile.pom wasn't found in the local engine out directory., Any ideas?

How did you build the profile engine? You need something like:

$ flutter/tools/gn --runtime-mode profile
$ ninja -C out/host_profile
$ flutter/tools/gn --runtime-mode profile --android --android-cpu arm64
$ ninja -C out/android_profile_arm64

As a workaround, try adding this to the subprojects section of Gallery's android/build.gradle:

Thanks @jason-simmons this indeed makes it build. Any idea why is this not part of the default template?

[TahaTesser]

Hi @mraleph Thank you for the details!

I can confirm the issue

[chinmaygarde]

cc @blasten for thoughts on a better workflow for local engine builds. We have a workaround right now so it should not be a blocker.

[blasten]

https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/master/packages/flutter_tools/gradle/flutter.gradle#L371-L374 seems to be failing in this case.

@mraleph this is a bug in the Flutter plugin.

[fzyzcjy]

I am having the same issue, and can confirm this workaround https://github.com/flutter/gallery/issues/899#issuecomment-1427994205 solves my problem

Btw, in case anyone finds the error "Cannot run Project.afterEvaluate(Closure) when the project is already evaluated.", please put that code at the beginning of subprojects section, not the end.

[parlough]

In light of https://github.com/flutter/gallery/issues/1072, I'm going to close this in favor of https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/104667. Thanks everyone for helping each other debug and work around this!
