NoClassDefFoundError exception #65

javiersantos · 2015-08-18T15:44:44Z

This happens when pressing the button with the Intent.

final Intent chooserIntent = new Intent(context, DirectoryChooserActivity.class);
final DirectoryChooserConfig chooserConfig = DirectoryChooserConfig.builder()
         .newDirectoryName("Dir")
         .allowReadOnlyDirectory(false)
         .allowNewDirectoryNameModification(true)
         .build();
chooserIntent.putExtra(DirectoryChooserActivity.EXTRA_CONFIG, chooserConfig);
startActivityForResult(chooserIntent, REQUEST_DIRECTORY);

Logcat:

Is that in the sample app?

javiersantos · 2015-08-18T17:20:36Z

No, it happens using my own implementation in a Preference object on the PreferenceActivity class. I have not tested the sample app.

prefCustomPath = findPreference("prefCustomPath");

prefCustomPath.setOnPreferenceClickListener(new Preference.OnPreferenceClickListener() {
            @Override
            public boolean onPreferenceClick(Preference preference) {
                final Intent chooserIntent = new Intent(context, DirectoryChooserActivity.class);

                final DirectoryChooserConfig chooserConfig = DirectoryChooserConfig.builder()
                        .newDirectoryName("Dir")
                        .allowReadOnlyDirectory(false)
                        .allowNewDirectoryNameModification(true)
                        .build();

                chooserIntent.putExtra(DirectoryChooserActivity.EXTRA_CONFIG, chooserConfig);
                startActivityForResult(chooserIntent, REQUEST_DIRECTORY);

                return false;
            }
        });

Thanks.

javiersantos · 2015-08-19T08:54:04Z

Well, it fails when using the Fragment too (same Logcat).

prefCustomPath.setOnPreferenceClickListener(new Preference.OnPreferenceClickListener() {
            @Override
            public boolean onPreferenceClick(Preference preference) {
                final DirectoryChooserConfig chooserConfig = DirectoryChooserConfig.builder()
                        .newDirectoryName("Dir")
                        .allowReadOnlyDirectory(false)
                        .allowNewDirectoryNameModification(true)
                        .build();

                final DirectoryChooserFragment chooserDialog =                                                                 DirectoryChooserFragment.newInstance(chooserConfig);
                chooserDialog.show(getFragmentManager(), null);

                return false;
            }
});

passy · 2015-08-19T08:56:49Z

Yeah, this has nothing to do with the code there. Something with your build is broken, it seems that the transitive dependencies aren't included. It is declared as a dependency of the library though:

Android-DirectoryChooser/library/build.gradle

Line 13 in 974ce7d

compile 'com.gu:option:1.3'

javiersantos · 2015-08-19T09:06:39Z

Seems to be fixed when including transitive = true in gradle:

compile ('net.rdrei.android.dirchooser:library:3.0@aar') {
        transitive = true;
}

Then it tries to include com.gu:options, but gradle is not able to resolve the library.

javiersantos · 2015-08-19T09:16:47Z

Fixed. I have included this lines in my own build.gradle

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven { url 'http://guardian.github.com/maven/repo-releases' }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    ...
    compile ('net.rdrei.android.dirchooser:library:3.0@aar') { transitive = true; }
}

passy · 2015-08-19T09:25:13Z

👍 Thanks for documenting that!

rommex · 2015-11-03T10:51:23Z

After all the fixes by @javiersantos there is still a new error message:

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:dexDebug'.

com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Process 'command 'C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_60\bin\java.exe'' finished with non-zero exit value 2

javiersantos · 2015-11-03T11:33:54Z

What about adding this to your build.gradle @rommex?

defaultConfig {
    multiDexEnabled true
}

I think it happens because you have exceeded the 65K methods dex limit imposed by Android.

rommex · 2015-11-03T14:24:45Z

@javiersantos thanks for your swift support. But your suggested insertions lead to some other nasty messages:

Error:duplicate files during packaging of APK D:\My Documents\AndroidStudioProjects\RayStoryBoard\app\build\outputs\apk\app-debug-unaligned.apk
Path in archive: META-INF/services/javax.annotation.processing.Processor
Origin 1: E:.gradle\caches\modules-2\files-2.1\com.google.auto.value\auto-value\1.1\f6951c141ea3e89c0f8b01da16834880a1ebf162\auto-value-1.1.jar

You can ignore those files in your build.gradle:
android {
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/services/javax.annotation.processing.Processor'
}
}

I Don't know if it's just me or what, but I couldn't find a valid Maven repoistory on Guardian's "gu.options" github directory.
So I just downloaded Option 1.3 JAR file from:
http://guardian.github.io/maven/repo-releases/com/gu/option/1.3/option-1.3.jar
and everything's OK now.

blackvvine · 2015-11-11T09:49:29Z

[BASICS]
Just copy the JAR file to your app's "libs" folder and put the following in your app's "build.gradle" file:
compile files('libs/option-1.3.jar')

It's a great library BTW.

ericbutler · 2015-12-10T20:31:15Z

Another option for including co.gu.option is adding this to your build.gradle

dependencies {
compile 'com.gu:option:1.3'
}

ghost · 2016-02-26T21:10:50Z

awesome work great

popdeveloper · 2016-03-23T12:12:20Z

Thanks. It worked by adding jar file.

Phantast · 2016-03-28T22:22:41Z

As this thread is quite long, here the summary of what solved it for me:

repositories {
    maven { url 'http://guardian.github.com/maven/repo-releases' }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.gu:option:1.3'
    compile 'net.rdrei.android.dirchooser:library:3.2@aar'
}

Hope it helps somebody else when checking this issue.

micwallace · 2016-10-16T09:06:49Z

Yep @Phantast's solution is the best one. adding transitive=true will grow your apk by ~800kb

apacha · 2017-02-12T12:52:40Z

How about adding the resolution by @Phantast to the readme start-screen?

Phantast · 2017-02-12T14:17:46Z

It is quite some time ago since I faced this issue. Go ahead and add it. ;) I dont feel safe enough to make these changes.
