Seems like I didn't look hard enough - I found it in 
revsavesasandroidstandalone.livecodescript in the revSaveAsMobileStandaloneMain 
command script. The relevant bit is...


executeShellCommand pathToJavaC(), "-target 1.5 -source 1.5 -Xlint:none -d", 
tClassesBuildFolder, "-cp", tClassPath, tClassFile
if the result is not empty then
   throw "could not compile service support class"
end if

...which doesn't really mean a lot to me. I tried adding a breakpoint so I 
could see what was in those various parameters but that didn't fire when I 
tried to build the app.

    Thanks Ralph - so, I enabled the Livecode UI stacks in the pref window and 
then used the find window to search for the error string (or part of it at 
least) but no results were returned. I also had a poke/search around in a 
couple of rev stacks with Android in their names but I was none the wiser after 
that either.
    
    At least I have one dev machine that it works on I guess. It used to work 
on the Macbook Air as well but something seems to have gone amiss along the 
way, probably when I was required to update my Android install. I thought 
starting from scratch installing Android Studio and making sure the correct 
SDKs were installed would help but the same error occurs.

        I've seen similar messages when building for mobile. I enable the IDE 
stacks in prefs then search for the error string and look at the result of the 
previous operation. Usually the reason for the fail is apparent. Not pretty but 
fast. (one of the advantages of having the IDE written in LCS)

        Subject: Problem building Android app - 'could not compile service 
support class' error message
        
        I’m having a problem building/testing an Android app on one of my two 
development laptops (Macbook Air, LC 9.0.2, OSX Yosemite) – it comes up with 
the following error message...
        
        Unable to build app for testing: could not compile service support 
class.
        
        It seems to work fine on another laptop with a similar setup (the only 
difference being that it is running OSX Mojave) – same Android Studio setup and 
Java version installed.
        
        Any ideas?
        
        Terry...
