Re: Problems with DbxAuthFinish in Java DropBox V 3.0.3

Problems with DbxAuthFinish in Java DropBox V 3.0.3

Hello, when i try to connect to the Java App i've created for the first time using no redirect requesting i get a fatal error just on the DbxAuthFinish, giving me a java.lang.ExceptionInitializerError. I checked out many times but my code is still the same as the example found in the API tutorials. Here is my code:

	String accessToken = "";
		String userLocale = null;
		DbxRequestConfig requestConfig = new DbxRequestConfig("text-edit/0.1",userLocale);
	     DbxAppInfo appInfo = new DbxAppInfo(APP_KEY,SECRET_KEY);
	     DbxWebAuth auth = new DbxWebAuth(requestConfig, appInfo);
	     DbxWebAuth.Request requestAuth = DbxWebAuth.newRequestBuilder().withNoRedirect().build(); 	
	     String authorizeUrl = auth.authorize(requestAuth);
	     System.out.println("1. Go to " + authorizeUrl);
	     System.out.println("2. Click \"Allow\" (you might have to log in first).");
	     System.out.println("3. Copy the authorization code.");
	    
		//Abrimos el enlace de autenticación del paciente en la carpeta de DropBox
		try {
			URL authenticationURL = new URL(authorizeUrl);
			Desktop.getDesktop().browse(authenticationURL.toURI());
			
		} catch (Exception e) {
			// TODO Auto-generated catch block
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
		String code = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(this.ventanaControlada, "Inserta el codigo de verificación.");
		System.out.println(code);
		code = code.trim();
		
		try {			
			 DbxAuthFinish authFinish = auth.finishFromCode(code);
	         
			accessToken = authFinish.getAccessToken();
			
		} catch (Exception e) {
		

Thanks for all, i hope you can find any response soon!

Did you add dropbox-core-sdk-3.0.3.jar or dropbox-core-sdk-3.0.3-sources.jar? You should add dropbox-core-sdk-3.0.3.jar to use the library.

Thanks! It looks like the contents of the sdk-version.txt file aren't in the format expected. It should be a version number, instead of "${project.version}".

How did you install the SDK? Did you successfully build the SDK first? This value should get expanded when you do so:

https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-java#building-from-source

Alternatively, you can download the built library from Gradle or Maven by specifying it as a dependency as shown here:

I just got the Java API from the webpage https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-java/releases/tag/v3.0.3

and added the jar to my Eclipse project. Then build and configure the path's to the .jar's and compile it. Works fine just until the line marked on the stacktrace error i pasted above.
