Android Question Manifest InstallActivity Help (SOLVED)

[walterf25]

Hi all, I am updating my EasyAR SDK Library, there are a few changes made to the latest SDK, but I am running into an issue while trying to update the MotionTracking Example, I am getting the following error when I try to run the example.

Error while checking app details and ARCore status

The new Library depends on com.google.ar.core:1.6.0.aar file which I have included with the #AdditionalJar parameter in my activity, so far all the other examples work fine, but this specific one is giving me this issue.

If I unzip the .aar library I can see that there is a manifest file inside of it with the following content.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="14"
        android:targetSdkVersion="24" />

    <application>

        <!-- This activity is critical for installing ARCore when it is not already present. -->
        <activity
            android:name="com.google.ar.core.InstallActivity"
            android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"
            android:excludeFromRecents="true"
            android:exported="false"
            android:launchMode="singleTop"
            android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Material.Light.Dialog.Alert" />
        <!-- The minimal version code of ARCore APK required for an app using this SDK. -->
        <meta-data
            android:name="com.google.ar.core.min_apk_version"
            android:value="181012000" />
    </application>

</manifest>

Does anyone know how I can add the "android:name="com.google.ar.core.InstallActivity" portion to my project's manifest file, is it even necessary or am I missing something else.

Thanks all.
