Hi,
I want to use runtime permissions, but when I tick the library box I get the above error.
B4A 9.8, latest Java 8, everything works apart from this library.
Searching the forums it seems a common problem, but I've exhausted all the threads and still no joy.
Can anyone guide me what to do next please ?
TIA

Are you using AndroidX?
Can you post the compilation window-text or the full error?

If you are using AndroidX. Open the sdkmanager and search for legacy. Install the found Artifact,

DonManfred, All i'm doing is ticking RunTime permissions in the library window to include it. As soon as I tick the box, this pops up. I'm not using android x

I'm begining to think there is a bug here - as an empty project will not compile with the runtime permissions library included (same error)

Thanks Peter - this is just the start up project with the runtime permissions library added.

looks like you are using an OLD sdk.

I suggest to install a new sdk. Follow the installationinstructions carefully. It will just work.

I'll try the SDK re-install first and let you know
Alternative is the readytorun SDK-Download


Please download this zip (369mb) in beforehand so that it is available when i connect.... Only download, not extract. I´ll do it when i am connected.

And please, if you are not english, please configure the ide to use ENGLISH language (the OS is preferred to be in english too.

German and english is OK for me; Chinese, Iran or such languages i do not speak and even can not read 😂
