Android Question [SOLVED] LoadLayout fails after set targetSdkVersion="29"

[giggetto71]

Hi,
guys. I need some help here.
I have a market APP that stopped working after I set the SDK target version to 29.

The line 380 where the code crashes (see below) is simply a call to the LoadLayout for my layout.
All I did was to set 29 here:

AddManifestText(
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="5" android:targetSdkVersion="29"/>

Of course I also se the path for the android jar to the new platform 29.:

C:\Android\platforms\android-29\android.jar


if I set it back the manifest to 28

AddManifestText(
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="5" android:targetSdkVersion="28"/>

even leaving the platform jar path to 29, it works fine.
Please help...
THANKS!!

I was able to reproduce it even in an almost empty project. The issue seems to be related to the CustomListView. In the Layout I load I have a button and a customlistview (from the xCustomListView library ver. 1.7)..
If I set the target version to 29 it crashes with the same log as my app:

java.lang.NoSuchFieldException: No field mColorStateList in class Landroid/graphics/drawable/GradientDrawable$GradientState; (declaration of 'android.graphics.drawable.GradientDrawable$GradientState' appears in /system/framework/framework.jar)

If I remove from the layout the CustomListView everything goes all right.
the sample project to reproduce the issue is attached.

I guess that you are wasting your time with an old version of B4A. Use the latest version.
