Compiling `glutin` fails with missing `set_suspend_callback`

[M2WZ]

I'm on Windows 10 and tried to compile the egui_template for android, but got a few errors (pastebin). It are problems with glutin, but after asking on glutin's freenode, someone said the first error

error[E0599]: no method named `set_suspend_callback` found for reference `&EventLoopWindowTarget<T>` in the current scope
--> C:\Users\Me\.cargo\registry\src\github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823\glutin-0.26.0\src\api\android\mod.rs:76:12

     |            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ method not found in `&EventLoopWindowTarget<T>`

is an error from winit, from an older commit and pointed out that the CI from winit doesn't test android since the switch to Github Actions.
Could someone look into this (and does anyone know anything about the other errors)?

Hi!
winit includes Android CI checks (https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/blob/master/.github/workflows/ci.yml#L42) and I also did some Android dev with wgpu a few weeks ago. It seems more like glutin bump the winit dependencies at some point which caused issues with the Android platform implementation. See also rust-windowing/glutin#1307, which also includes some more WIP branch/PR.

Hi! That was me.

What was actually written was:

That first error looks like a regression from b882810 (Winit), which didn't get caught by CI somehow

lol, this must have been broken for a while

b882810#diff-8a469f9184766b66e49647a75192f001ef549e5f6fcf8c98eb4fc23ce9e87e15L7-L10

wow, Glutin hasn't had android CI since the switch to GitHub actions

And yeah, Glutin really doesn't apppar to have any Android CI, but that's a Glutin issue.

Oh sorry, misunderstood then.

See also rust-windowing/glutin#1307, which also includes some more WIP branch/PR.

So to be sure, should I use (a rebase of) Kaiser1989's fork of glutin as dep for my project?

[philipp-kaiser]

I rebased my winit fork to current version and added a pull request:

#2118

I also added some pull request for glutin to finally fix the android problems:
rust-windowing/glutin#1385

Working example with newest versions of customized glutin and winit:

As mentioned above this is a glutin issue, and is already tracked in rust-windowing/glutin#1307. While both projects live under the same GitHub organization glutin itself is responsible for remaining compatible and/or testing Android in CI, not winit.

Note that I'm picking up this issue as there seem to many affected users over time and no upstream solution yet, stay tuned on the glutin repo if you're interested.
