Java Question SLC import does not exist

[abilio486software]

When compiling a library, I'm getting this error:

Starting step: Compiling Java code.
javac 1.8.0_241
C:\Users\Abílio\Desktop\SimpleLibraryCompiler\SIBS\src\b4x\example\libSIBS.java:36: error: package android.support.v4.app does not exist

Note: C:\Users\Abílio\Desktop\SimpleLibraryCompiler\SIBS\src\b4x\example\libSIBS.java uses or overrides a deprecated API.

Error.

Any possible solution?

If android.support.v4.app is not in either the main or additional library folders then SLC needs a 'libs' folder with that jar in it in order to reference it. This may be the problem.

android.support.* types are from the old and no longer used Android Support library
A library that depends on android.support is an old, unmaintained library that shouldn't be used.

Hi Erel,

You have a right to your opinion, but the problem of my clients is not solved, just because I want to ignore it.

Like it or not, I have to put the Nexgo N3 terminal to work with my app, which is made in B4A.

In fact I would like to be able to implement onActivityResult through "inline java" but I get the information that is already declared in Main.

So I tried to make a library, but unfortunately SLC does not compile successfully (but B4A compiles successfully), so I asked you for help, because you were the one who coded the SLC.

How can I solve the problem?

It has nothing to do with SLC. It is a missing dependency.

how can you not know what to do for a missing dependency? go to maven and download it. or send me a pm and i'll send one to you.

Many thanks,

Library project does not compile, but B4A project with inline java compiles without errors with the configuration in the picture.

limiting my comments to what i see in your first post, you are missing the android.support.v4 package when you compile with slc. whether that means you actually have it somewhere on your system or not, i can't say. you can either find it at the maven or jar-download repositories and download it yourself, or you can do what i said previously and i'll send you an old android.support.v4 jar that i have. what you do with it or whether it solves the problem, i can't say. resolving 1 missing dependency can often lead to other missing entities. and something doesn't look quite right with that list of #additionaljar references you have in your b4a version. but one step at a time.
the attached image shows you what you get if you go to google and type "maven android.support.v4" or similar. follow the links or pm me.

There is no android.support.* packages.
In your inline code you correctly commented that line.

Why haven't you did the same in the library code?

The IDE will convert automatically android.support dependencies to AndroidX dependencies.

 

[drgottjr]

whether it exists or not, i can't say. whether it solves your problem, i don't know. but i have it. do you want it?

Now it compiles, with fixed dependency.
Many thanks both ?
