Android API v2 - Can't build the sdk

Hi there,

 

I'm currently trying to upgrade the sdk to v2, however, I'm struggling with simply building the repository in order to check the examples.

 

I'm running ./gradlew install in the root folder (dropbox-sdk-java) and it's throwing the following error:

 

org.gradle.api.tasks.TaskExecutionException: Execution failed for task ':compileJava'.

Maven is installed.

 

Is there anything I'm missing?

 

 

Thanks

    It sounds like you're calling startOAuth2Authentication every time. You should only call that (or let the user trigger it) when necessary. You can see how the example app checks if it already has a token here.

     

    The startOAuth2Authentication method can throw IllegalStateException, so you can catch that normally.

    Hey mate - it looks like you are trying to build the Dropbox SDK from source and it also looks like you are missing a python module and its getting quite messy. From your logs it looks like I would be correct in assuming you are trying to use the Dropbox SDK within an Android project.

     

    There is an easier way and it worked for me.

     

    For me (in my android app of course), in the app level build.gradle, all I needed to do is add this under dependencies { } and it worked OK. I am not sure if this will help you at all. 

    dependencies {
        //other content removed for more clarity. Here you will have your app level gradle dependencies.

        compile 'com.dropbox.core:dropbox-core-sdk:3.0.4'
    }

     

     

    Thanks, it worked for me!!
