Dagger

Parameters in @AssistedFactory classes that have the same type now require a name to be set via @Assisted("foo") to disambiguate between arguments. Previously, order of parameters was used. Fixes #2281. (44d4f4b)

Fix #2359: Fixes self-loop when a generated implementation of an @AssistedFactory method calls a generated component method with the same name. (e2c9a9a)
Fix @AssistedFactory to allow for creating a parameterized Foo with type parameters specified by the factory. (552f430)
Issue #2279: Adds a better error message when trying to use a type parameter with an @AssistedFactory creator method. (9a90151)
Fix #2309: Fix a type inference issue with generated assisted factories in Java 7. (cda6e32)

A new delayComponentReady() method on HiltAndroidRule allows deferring component initialization in tests until after test execution has started. This allows modifying @BindValue field values in the case that default component initialization would have otherwise requested them before an @Before or @Test method. (315b1fa)
HiltAndroidRule now enforces that inject() is only called at most once per test case. (5dfd484)
Removes the deprecated ApplicationComponent. Note that this will now require upgrading any Androidx Hilt Worker dependencies to version 1.0.0-alpha03. (6592b06)
Fix #2337: Fix an incompatibility issue between the Hilt Gradle Plugin and AGP 4.2.0-beta04. Note that this fix makes it so that earlier versions of AGP 4.2.0 are incompatible with Hilt's Plugin. (9da5114)

Fix #2306: Fix an issue where internal Kotlin classes where not accessible with enableExperimentalClasspathAggregation turned ON. (53ceb91, 98c73c6)
Fix an issue where an @InstallIn module referencing a component without a component builder would fail (132d9ea)
