So far this wasn't possible because Robolectric's Looper and MessageQueue
implementations have multiple shortcomings:
1. The message loop of new HandlerThreads is an not an actual loop and
scheduled messages are executed on the thread the message is enqueued
(not the handler thread).
2. The scheduler used to replace the message queue is synchronizing all its
methods. Thus, when a test attempts to add messages to a Handler from
two different threads, it may easily run into a deadlock.
3. The scheduler doesn't correctly emulate the order of messages as they
would be in an actual MessageQueue:
a. If the message is enqueued on the handler thread, it gets executed
immediately (and not after all other messages at the same time).
b. The list of messages is always re-sorted by time, meaning that the
order of execution for messages at the same time is indeterminate.
4. Robolectric's SystemClock implementation returns the current scheduler
time of the main UI thread. So, unless this scheduler is used to add
messages in the future, the SystemClock time never advances.
This CL adds two helper classes which extend and replace Robolectric's
ShadowLooper and ShadowMessageQueue.
1. We intercept messages being enqueued or deleted in the message queue.
Thus Robolectric's faulty scheduler gets never used. Instead, we keep
a blocking priority queue of messages, sorted first by execution time
and then by FIFO order to correctly emulate the real MessageQueue.
2. We also keep a list of deleted messages to know which messages to ignore
when they come up in the looper.
3. When a new Looper is started, we override the dummy loop to an actual
eternal while loop which waits for new messages, checks if they haven't
been deleted, and runs the messages (similar to what Robolectric's
MessageQueue would have done at this point).
Because we don't actually use the main UI thread in our tests, we can't rely
on the SystemClock to progress in any sensible manner. To overcome this issue,
we can use the auto-advancing FakeClock also used for the simulation tests.

ExoPlayer
ExoPlayer is an application level media player for Android. It provides an alternative to Android’s MediaPlayer API for playing audio and video both locally and over the Internet. ExoPlayer supports features not currently supported by Android’s MediaPlayer API, including DASH and SmoothStreaming adaptive playbacks. Unlike the MediaPlayer API, ExoPlayer is easy to customize and extend, and can be updated through Play Store application updates.
Documentation
- The developer guide provides a wealth of information.
- The class reference documents ExoPlayer classes.
- The release notes document the major changes in each release.
- Follow our developer blog to keep up to date with the latest ExoPlayer developments!
Using ExoPlayer
ExoPlayer modules can be obtained from JCenter. It's also possible to clone the repository and depend on the modules locally.
From JCenter
The easiest way to get started using ExoPlayer is to add it as a gradle
dependency. You need to make sure you have the JCenter and Google repositories
included in the build.gradle file in the root of your project:
repositories {
jcenter()
google()
}
Next add a gradle compile dependency to the build.gradle file of your app
module. The following will add a dependency to the full library:
compile 'com.google.android.exoplayer:exoplayer:2.X.X'
where 2.X.X is your preferred version. Alternatively, you can depend on only
the library modules that you actually need. For example the following will add
dependencies on the Core, DASH and UI library modules, as might be required for
an app that plays DASH content:
compile 'com.google.android.exoplayer:exoplayer-core:2.X.X'
compile 'com.google.android.exoplayer:exoplayer-dash:2.X.X'
compile 'com.google.android.exoplayer:exoplayer-ui:2.X.X'
The available library modules are listed below. Adding a dependency to the full library is equivalent to adding dependencies on all of the library modules individually.
exoplayer-core: Core functionality (required).exoplayer-dash: Support for DASH content.exoplayer-hls: Support for HLS content.exoplayer-smoothstreaming: Support for SmoothStreaming content.exoplayer-ui: UI components and resources for use with ExoPlayer.
In addition to library modules, ExoPlayer has multiple extension modules that depend on external libraries to provide additional functionality. Some extensions are available from JCenter, whereas others must be built manually. Browse the extensions directory and their individual READMEs for details.
More information on the library and extension modules that are available from JCenter can be found on Bintray.
Locally
Cloning the repository and depending on the modules locally is required when using some ExoPlayer extension modules. It's also a suitable approach if you want to make local changes to ExoPlayer, or if you want to use a development branch.
First, clone the repository into a local directory and checkout the desired branch:
git clone https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer.git
git checkout release-v2
Next, add the following to your project's settings.gradle file, replacing
path/to/exoplayer with the path to your local copy:
gradle.ext.exoplayerRoot = 'path/to/exoplayer'
gradle.ext.exoplayerModulePrefix = 'exoplayer-'
apply from: new File(gradle.ext.exoplayerRoot, 'core_settings.gradle')
You should now see the ExoPlayer modules appear as part of your project. You can depend on them as you would on any other local module, for example:
compile project(':exoplayer-library-core')
compile project(':exoplayer-library-dash')
compile project(':exoplayer-library-ui')
Developing ExoPlayer
Project branches
- Development work happens on the
dev-v2branch. Pull requests should normally be made to this branch. - The
release-v2branch holds the most recent release.
Using Android Studio
To develop ExoPlayer using Android Studio, simply open the ExoPlayer project in the root directory of the repository.
