Version 0.19 released

[Mikhail Lopatkin]

It's been a long time since the last update...

I've finally managed to complete a new release, 0.19. There is a lot of changes under the hood and several improvements.

Important: Java 8 or higher is now required to run the tool. 

New Features

1. Filters are now saved between runs
   
2. Columns can be reordered with drag-n-drop
3. Columns can be toggled on and off - with right click menu on the header. 
4. Tag filter now understand regexps (in /../)

Compatibility improvements

 

The Android Log Viewer has been tested to be compatible with Android 2.3 to P. I can't guarantee that it won't run on Eclair or Froyo though, it is hard to get a device that old now :)

Regressions

"Hide with this tag" and "hide with this PID" actions are no longer available. I plan to reimplement them in 0.20 and I hope that it won't take 5 more years to ship.

Please don't hesitate to report issues to https://bitbucket.org/mlopatkin/android-log-viewer/issues

Thanks,

Mike.

New Features

1. Quick filters are back, and now more powerful:

  - A filter for single tag/application name/pid/priority or message can be created with context menu action

  - There is also a context menu action that opens a "Create filter" dialog with tag or pid or other filterable value pre-filled from a selected log entry.

2. It is possible to filter on tags/app names that contain commas (not that there are many such tags): just type a comma twice ',,' or wrap the entire 

    pattern in backticks.
