Unable to migrate to API v2
Hi again,
I downloaded the new DropBox-SDK from here:
https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-java
and I extracted it into an empty folder. I also tried several examples there, for example...
That's correct, the "DBRoulette" example and the dropbox-android-sdk-1.6.3 SDK are for API v1, and should no longer be used.
Anyway, these are commands that should be run in a terminal if you want to build the SDK from source. If you don't need to edit the source (you generally shouldn't), I recommend just changing the gradle line as described in my last post instead.
Hi,
About the 'android:testOnly' error, sorry it was my mistake, I got this error for the "DBRoulette" example that was provided in the "dropbox-android-sdk-1.6.3.zip" file, I guess that it's the old v1 sdk, am I right?
OK so I did the following:
1. I extracted the "dropbox-sdk-java-master.zip" file into an empty folder.
2. I run the file:
..\DropboxApiV2\dropbox-sdk-java-master\gradlew.bat
What should it do? I didn't see anything change in the folder after running this file, it just opened a black cmd window for a very short time and then was closed.
3. I clicked "Import Project" in the Android Studio, and selected the folder:
D:\AndroidProjects\DropboxApiV2\dropbox-sdk-java-master\examples\android
4. I edited the "AndroidManifest.xml" and "strings.xml" files and replaced the "YOUR_APP_KEY_HERE" with my API key.
5. I selected from the Android Studio menu: Build ---> "Build project", and I get the following error:
Error:A problem occurred configuring root project 'android'.
> Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':_debugCompile'.
> Could not find com.dropbox.core:dropbox-core-sdk:0-SNAPSHOT.

What should I do in order to solve this error ?
Thanks!
By the way I didn't understand the following:
git clone https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-java.git
cd dropbox-sdk-java
./update-submodules # also do this after every "git checkout"
./gradlew build
What is it? is it something that I should run? or copy to somewhere? sorry but didn't understand that at all.

Dropbox StaffThat's correct, the "DBRoulette" example and the dropbox-android-sdk-1.6.3 SDK are for API v1, and should no longer be used.

Thanks very much!
Sorry somehow I missed that part, now it's working.
Last question, the instructions ask to run this file:
..\DropboxApiV2\dropbox-sdk-java-master\gradlew.bat
What does it do? I didn't see any change in the folder after running this file, it just opened a black cmd window for a very short time and then it was closed. Why do I have to run it?
Thanks.
- Greg-DBThat is a script for building/installing the SDK locally. It's not necessary if you switch to using a packaged version as above.
