General Question about 5.0
GENERAL QUESTION ABOUT 5.0
DBFlow Version: 5.0
Bug or Feature Request: Feature
Description: What is the future of DBFlow? The last commits are from November of last year, and there is no movement in any direction here. 5.0 is a step in the right direction, but it is quite incomplete and race conditions in change notification system makes Paging unusable (I noticed there is a branch for re-implementation of that feature, so I don't create specific bug for that). The library is used in our projects so it's important to me if it will progress, or stagnate (moving to another solution is hard, so I would avoid it as long as possible).
@martin-felczerek Nice question. I would love to know what is the future of DBFlow as well for exact the same reasons: we use it in our projects and we know how hard it is to change to another solution.
The 5.0.0-alpha1 version is a bit big, the documentation is not very well explained, and some past usages have failed.
I would also be interested in knowing the current state of the project. It's a good database but I'm afraid it got abandoned! Any news?
I think this project is not maintained anymore. I would switch to sth else - maybe https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/architecture/room
I took some time away from the library as it was causing more stress than fun. Especially with life, I don't take money for this library, and needing some time off I had to step back for a bit. I plan on trying to be more active once again and provide more regular updates as I can.
