Android Question Attribute "layout_anchorGravity" already defined with incompatible format

[superkan]

Hi,

I am using Firebase storage (FirebaseStorage 1.11+ FirebaseAuth 1.04) example as a starting point and added TabStripViewPager (v1.10). These two (Firebase and TabStripViewPager) are not working with each other simultaneously but work when individually used - I have posted the error log. I am not so familiar with maven and dependency. What I tried was, changed the android-support version in TabStripViewPager xml file from v4 to v6 but it then asked me where the android-support-v6.jar was in the libraries folder. So that didn't work and I changed it back to v4. Guided from a SO answer, I also tried to delete the 'already defined' attributes in the log from the respective values.xml files (keeping the 'Original attribute' ones intact ) but then it resulted in a 'top level' error which stropped the translation and I reverted back all corrections from my side.

My Manifest looks like:

The newest Firebase artifacts depends on AndroidX

Guess you need an B4A Update and switch to AndroidX. You need B4A 9.3+ i think.

AndroidX SDK

Android Support Library was implemented and maintained in the last 8 years by Google. It includes a wide range of features and it hides many of the differences between the various Android versions. Android Support Library was replaced by AndroidX SDK. It is no longer maintained and new versions...

It did solve the problem when I updated to B4A 9.3 and updated the sdk from Android9 to AndroidX.
