Hi all.

I just tried to test it - here is a result

I believe the reason is a SQL Cipher lib adjusted for 16KB.
What else am I missing?
Please see the attached list of libs that I'm using, compilation results and a manifest_auto.proguard file.

Thank you.

I updated the Core.proguard file in internal libraries folder - please see the attached compilation result.
And this is my manifest

Thank you.

The manifest changes with AI did the trick - it compiles without error. I adjusted timeout time to 600 secs.

This one will not be needed with the next beta / update, as it is included in the "core rules":
-dontwarn **.annotation.**

For the others it is better to add the missing dependencies. Something like:
Code: 
#AdditionalJar: androidx.room:room-runtime
#AdditionalJar: androidx.room:room-common
#AdditionalJar: androidx.concurrent:concurrent-futures
#AdditionalJar: androidx.concurrent:concurrent-futures-ktx
#AdditionalJar: androidx.arch.core:core-runtime

What exactly should I download from the SDK manager?

I tried to search for room-common and it says that my installed version is 2.7.2 and the current version that is under All group is 2.8.5. Do I need to update it?


And why it's not of the part of the IDE?

Thank you.

Yes, search and check the box for "room-common-jvm" then install it. I have a screenshot showing that on the post I linked.

I commented these lines
B4X: 
#AdditionalJar: androidx.room:room-runtime
#AdditionalJar: androidx.room:room-common
#AdditionalJar: androidx.concurrent:concurrent-futures
#AdditionalJar: androidx.concurrent:concurrent-futures-ktx
#AdditionalJar: androidx.arch.core:core-runtime

and instead added a rule into my manifest

B4X: 
AddProguardText(
-dontwarn **.annotation.**
    -dontwarn androidx.work.**
    -dontwarn androidx.room.**
    -dontwarn androidx.concurrent.futures.**
    -dontwarn androidx.lifecycle.**
   
    -keep class net.sqlcipher.** { *; }
    -keep class androidx.sqlite.db.** { *; }

)

Compilation is Ok now.

Am I did something wrong?

Thank you.
