commit 65e1ddf3b22249241c496890510071648bdff904

    On-demand initialization for WorkManager.
   
    This CL introduces WorkManager#getInstance(Context) as the preferred
    method and deprecates the argument-less version.  This method performs
    on-demand initialization of WorkManager if it hasn't been initialized
    previously by looking to see if the application Context implements
    Configuration.Provider and querying it for the Configuration.
   
    The exact order of initialization checks are now as follows:
   
    1. Through WorkManagerInitializer if it's enabled.
    2. Otherwise, through a WorkManager#initialize in Application#onCreate
       or ContentProvider#onCreate if specified by the developer.
    3. Otherwise, through WorkManager#getInstance(Context) if the
       application Context implements Configuration.Provider.  Using
       WorkManager#getInstance() at this point results in an exception as
       it does not contain the necessary information to initialize.
    4. Otherwise, throws an IllegalStateException.
   
    This change allows WorkManager to be setup in a manner where you can
    only allow it to be initialized when it is needed.  This is good for
    apps that care about the critical path initialization needed by
    WorkManager; in addition, all of WorkManager's own BroadcastReceivers
    and Services are set up to try to auto-initialize if needed.  Note
    that this initialization can still happen on the main thread.

    Test: Ran integration tests with integration app doing on-demand init.

Thanks for the fix! Is there any information about when this can be released to production?

As this is a new API, this will first be released in 2.1.0-alpha01 and go through the normal alpha/beta/rc/stable release process.  You can expect the first alpha in the next 2 weeks.

Great! Thanks for the fast response.

Wow super fast responce

commit a9cbd7e42fd38c18395c23fd17622c731c60c724

    Fix leak of biometric credential handler activity
   
    Due to a race condition, which can be triggered by launching
    BiometricPrompt immediately after it's dismissed (e.g., by calling
    authenticate() in onResume() or onCreate()), it's currently possible for
    the transparent DeviceCredentialHandlerActivity to get stuck onscreen.
    This results in no visible change but consumes all touch events until
    the user presses back or pauses the activity.
   
    This commit fixes the issue of the activity getting stuck onscreen by
    ensuring that DeviceCredentialHandlerActivity is finished (without an
    explicit authentication result) in this case.
   
    Test: Have sample app call BiometricPrompt#authenticate() in onResume()
    Before: After first auth, transparent activity is stuck onscreen
    After: After first auth, the prompt launches again successfully
