problem with org.mapsforge:mapsforge-map-android-extras:0.6.0

[Alain Bonnefoy]

Hello,

I have to add org.mapsforge:mapsforge-map-android-extras:0.6.0 to use MyLocationOverlay().

But when I add it, build fails with the following error:

Error:A problem occurred configuring project ':app'.
> Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':app:_debugCompile'.
   > Could not find android.support:compatibility-v4:23.1.1.

android.support:compatibility-v4:23.1.1 is strange and I didn't found it in the list of available android libraries, I tried to add android.support:support-v4:23.1.1 as I saw in Samples but it seems to be something different.

I do have all sdk 23 installed.

How to solve the problem?

Normally if you have 'default' transitive dependencies you can use the last child, i.e. mapsforge-map-android-extras.

In any case the needed support lib declaration is seen here.

Do you have installed the 'Android Support Repository' in AS SDK Tools ?

The full lib path would be like:
../Android/Sdk/extras/android/m2repository/com/android/support/support-v4/23.1.1/support-v4-23.1.1.aar

Hello Emux,

Yes I have Android Support Repository installed but what surprise me is the name of the expected library -> "android.support:compatibility-v4:23.1.1" and not support-v4

[Emux]

That naming is used in Maven builds (see here) produced via Maven Android SDK Deployer.

Are you sure there is not a mix in AS Gradle build files in your project?

Hello Emux,

I don't think so but where am I supposed to look at?

if you talk about a pom.xml file. I don't have any.

The problem arises from the mapsforge-map-android-extras dependencies in Maven / jCenter centrals (where is declared differently as jar vs aar).

To overcome that annoyance you can declare it in Gradle as a non transitive dependency:

    compile('org.mapsforge:mapsforge-map-android-extras:0.6.0') {
        transitive = false
    }
