Which libraries are referenced?

 

[DonManfred]

Try download appcompat 4.0 again. Use the new files from the download.

Which libraries are referenced?

Only AppCompat (Version: 4.00) bro.

 

[T8ET8TWE]

It's not work bro. I already tried.

 

[Erel]

Can you upload the project (File - Export as zip)?

 

[Muhamad Kamal]

any update on this?
I'm facing the same problem after I upgraded B4A to v9.9

 

[Erel]

Carefully follow the installation instructions and it will work: https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html

I also have the same problem from when I have installed B4A 10.0. Following the suggestions I have downloaded the last Java jdk and renewed android tools, but the compilation error remains. To test Appcompat I have downloaded again https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/attachments/appcompatlib4_00-zip.83205/ and the sample app https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/attachments/appcompatbaseexample3_20-zip.45357/

[rbirago]

the log I attached is generated using the sample app

 

[DonManfred]

Looks like you are using an old version. Or maybe you have another AppCompat.* files in your additional libs folder. Remove them all. AppCompat is an internal Library now.

 

[rbirago]

fine, it works. I have deleted AppCompat from AddLibraries and all is ok.
Thanks so much.
