Android Question try-catch does not work

[mohsen programmer]

Hello friends,

I am working on a B4A project and I got java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: Ljava/util/Base64 error on Android 7.

I tried using try-catch to handle this error, but to no avail. The application closes completely on some devices (force close)

I jetified the library but it didn't work.
Why doesn't try-catch work in this case?
Is there a solution to prevent the app from force closing?

This is a more severe error so it cannot caught.

Use StringUtils for base64 encoding.

Thank you for your answer. I don't use encryption, but I use a library that probably uses the base64 class.

This means that this library is a Java library and isn't compatible with Android (at least not older versions).

It works on top Androids like 12 and 13, but not on Android 7. Can't we first check if the user's Android has base64 or not?
