ViewCompositionStrategy

Interface

Android

interface ViewCompositionStrategy

A strategy for managing the underlying Composition of Compose UI Views such as ComposeView and AbstractComposeView. See AbstractComposeView.setViewCompositionStrategy.

Compose views involve ongoing work and registering the composition with external event sources. These registrations can cause the composition to remain live and ineligible for garbage collection for long after the host View may have been abandoned. These resources and registrations can be released manually at any time by calling AbstractComposeView.disposeComposition and a new composition will be created automatically when needed. A ViewCompositionStrategy defines a strategy for disposing the composition automatically at an appropriate time.

By default, Compose UI views are configured to Default.

Functions

fun installFor(view: AbstractComposeView): () -> Unit

Install this strategy for view and return a function that will uninstall it later. This function should not be called directly; it is called by AbstractComposeView.setViewCompositionStrategy after uninstalling the previous strategy.
