Android Question Android support repository not found

[yves67]

Hello
I am startind a new installation in a Windows10 VM machine
I installed jdk 11, Android , B4A 9.30
all my path are correctly set
I started the B4A SDK Manager and install the recommended packages

my application is using the AHViewPager library (I have it in my additional librairies)
but I need to install the Android Support Repository (V47 ? )
and in the B4A SDK manager I don't see this package ??

of course I get this error : class file for android.support.v4.view.PagerAdapter not found

what am I doing wrong ?

thanks for any help, I am stuck

You haven't jetified the library.

OK, I clic on jetifier line in the tools menu
A window appear and disapper,
but in the B4A SDKmanager, still no Android Support repository

what is suppose to do the jetifier ?

thanks for your help

I have it in my additional librairies

what is the path to your additional libs?

 

[yves67]

C:\Mes Projets B4X\AdditionalLibrairies\B4A\

 

[yves67]

I put a \ at the end of the path, if not the B4A disappear...
but removing the \ I am able to jetified my additional library
and because I add manualy android-support-v4.jar
(I copied it from mmy old installation)
I am able now to build my application

but why the android support repository is not display in the B4A SDKManager ?

 

[DonManfred]

and because I add manualy android-support-v4.jar
(I copied it from mmy old installation)

it is a mistake to have this file in additional libs folder.
You, all libs, should use the maven artifacts.
Google has changed the SDK in many ways.

 

[DonManfred]

but why the android support repository is not display in the B4A SDKManager ?

because it does not exist anymore since years.

It is replaced by smaller parts in form of the Maven Artifacts.
