Hi All,

I wanted to upgrade from fingerprint manager to Biometric manager. I used sdkmanager and it found the library and says biometric installed as seen in sdk screenshot but it was not present in the Additional folder as defined in the configure paths section also attached screenshot.
I'm using b4a v13, Android 34 with jdk 19.x

What is the solution?

Thanks

Did you download and installed latest Android SDK?
It should have cmdline-tools instead of tools folder.
If you have made a new folder for new SDK maybe you forgot to update the sdkmanager.bat path.

Thanks for the heads up on cmdline-tools to use the sdkmanager.bat

Sorry but I was working on the assumption if the androidx.biometric:biometric library files don't appear in the Additional folder, the library was not installed. To my amazement the sample project compiled without any errors.

So I guess my issue was a non issue?

I am not so skilled about such technical information but biometric it's part of the SDK.
Probably you can find it in some folder of the Android SDK.
They are not related to the B4X libraries.
At least I think so.
So it's like to add a functionality more than a library.
Then probably some library will check for this functionality.

Agreed the non b4x libraries wouldnt go in the Additional folder but in the \Android subfolders, I'm assuming.
Thanks again, all is well the Biometrics lib is working well!
