I Indy Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 5, 2021 #1 Hi All, Back in 2016 I used the following line in a Google Maps project; Code: #AdditionalRes: E:\!Development\android-sdk\extras\google\google_play_services\libproject\google-play-services_lib\res, com.google.android.gms Along with this I had some lines in the Manifest file and everything worked perfectly. Fast forward and I've had to revisit this project to make some changes and unfortunately the code is not compiling. TBH, I didn't think it would after 5 years and many B4X versions later. Basically the error I'm getting is relating to the path of the com.google.android.gms file, which obviously no longer exists. Code: B4A Version: 10.0 Java Version: 8 Parsing code. (0.04s) Building folders structure. (0.01s) Compiling code. (0.05s) Compiling layouts code. (0.00s) Organizing libraries. (0.00s) (Android Support Library) Generating R file. Error ERROR: resource directory 'e:\!development\android-sdk\extras\google\google_play_services\libproject\google-play-services_lib\res' does not exist Is there a quick fix for this as I don't really want to have to restart the project? Thanks
