Migration to Androidx

Opened this issue ยท 11 comments

Hi Team,

I am trying to migrate the plugin to androidx but not able to do it.
I have tried jetifier and androidx-adpater plugin as well.

Did anyone successfully migrated to androidx ?

@mauron85 Can you help in this

Hi @danielkappelle ,
I have already tried jettifer and migrating from android studio as well. But nothing works. Did you try on your end ?

Hmm, too bad. I use Ionic 5 and in combination with jetifier that seems to work for me. Perhaps give some more detailed description of exactly what isn't working for you. Somebody might be able to help out.

Thanks @danielkappelle for the reply. I m using cordova , Salesforce mobilesdk and this plugin

I've just updated to androdix with these ugly hacks:

  1. add this line UNDER // SUB-PROJECT DEPENDENCIES END line in app/build.gradle

implementation 'androidx.localbroadcastmanager:localbroadcastmanager:1.0.0'

  1. update all imports in the java files in app/src/main/java/com/marianhello
// import android.support.v4.content.ContextCompat;
import androidx.core.content.ContextCompat;

// import android.support.v4.content.LocalBroadcastManager;

@petrot Thanks a lot for your hack :-)

Seems to work quite well, do you have any more feedback of problems you might have encountered following this code change?

Info: I use this plugin with capacitor 2.4.2 and have run jetify but not sure it made a difference.

@tobika I made this hack for one android build, since then I test the background geolocation features only on iOS. Now I have problems with Android build but those problems come from another plugin..

Hi I'm still getting error: cannot find symbol import androidx.core.content.LocalBroadcastManager; after following @petrot hack

@jongbonga seems you copy/pasted wrong?

If anyone is interested, our fork's latest version was migrated to androidx:
