Re: maven build with android API 11 failed, Cann't find symbol
Well you are sort of right. Let me clarify. 1. yes.. Google/Android does not publish to Maven Central (although imho they should) 2. the android4maven project, led by Robert Manning, and myself got the android jar and some others into Maven central. This is done off the Android Open Source Project and google allowed us to push into their namespace (this is the class skeleton stuff - the android jar in the SDK does not have any implementations) http://sourceforge.net/projects/android4maven/ 3. since Android 3.0 (api level 11) and beyond are not in AOSP these are not in central, same applies for the compatibility package, maps and others 4. My Maven Android SDK Deployer can install the android.jar, maps.jar and the compatibilty jar files into your local maven repo or into a local repository server so you can use it in a team easily. This allows you to develop with any API published in the SDK including Android 3.0 and up and the compatibility package https://github.com/mosabua/maven-android-sdk-deployer 5. All this and more is discussed on the Maven Android mailing list.. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/maven-android-developers https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21forum/maven-android-developers Hope that clarifies things a bit. manfred On 11-09-19 07:53 AM, Guillaume Polet wrote: OK, I guess this is the main issue then.

Re: maven build with android API 11 failed, Cann't find symbol
Not much information here, but I guess that when you say 11 you mean that this is the target level. From what it looks like, it seems that android API jars for that version are not available. See also this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5253029/why-arent-the-android-sdk-jars-in-any-maven-repository Regarding the message you are mentionning, it just says that the method getActionView cannot be found on the class MenuItem (but the message is quite clear and comes from the java compiler), meaning that Maven is not using the new version you expect. As to why this is the case, without the pom and settings or more information, it is impossible to help you more. Regards, Guillaume Le 19/09/2011 10:35, darakok a écrit : I use maven to build my android project. It was working fine until I make use of method exclusively available to API 11 and above. In the pom file, I do change the android build version to 11. So presume I have set the right android jar for maven build to succeed. But it turns out to be completely the opposite. Because exactly the one method that I just added failed during the build. Maven complains Cannot find symbol: MenuItem.getActionView So do you have any idea what is the problem?

Re: maven build with android API 11 failed, Cann't find symbol
This is part of my POM file where i specify the version of Android API jar
file to compile with.
plugin
groupIdcom.jayway.maven.plugins.android.generation2/groupId
artifactIdmaven-android-plugin/artifactId
version2.9.0-beta-5/version
configuration
sdk
platform8/platform
/sdk
deleteConflictingFilestrue/deleteConflictingFiles
resourceDirectory${project.build.directory}/filtered-resources
/resourceDirectory
/configuration
extensionstrue/extensions
/plugin
I'm sure the correct Android jar file is used to compile my project because
it shows the jar file path in the console just before the error comes up.
Interestingly, that same jar file is reference in my project in eclipse and
Eclipse recognize the method that I have problem with when building with
maven.

Ok, so If you change here to 11, it does not modify the classpath of the
maven compiler plugin. It simply informs thet maven android plugin that
you are targetting the level 11. The jar used by the maven compiler is
defined in your dependencies.
I'm sure the correct Android jar file is used to compile my project because
it shows the jar file path in the console just before the error comes up.
Interestingly, that same jar file is reference in my project in eclipse and
Eclipse recognize the method that I have problem with when building with

Can't really know what's going on here since you have not posted your
dependencies and since we don't know where Maven resolves your artifacts
(if you installed the jars manually, you can put whatever version you
want and therefore have an the wrong jar).
Eclipse is of no use here because you can easily add jars through other
means (add a jar, add a library container, etc...). Actually, if you
have such external (to Maven) dependency , you should remove it because
they are not portable from one IDE to another and mainly because this
will not be reflected in your Maven build (probably indicates why you
are having some issues in your build now).

Re: maven build with android API 11 failed, Cann't find symbol
Use my Maven Android SDK Deployed you can find on github and add a dependency
as documented in the readers. The version should be 11_r1 on the dependency...
