@Kebechet

Thanks for the feedback, but seems like it will need some new dependency packages from com.google.android.libraries.*. So, it is not trivial as I thought.

[Kebechet]

Hello @moljac thank you for the info. So what is the current plan ? You will work on it but it will take much longer ? Or are you going to postpone it because of the new dependency ?

[moljac]

thank you for the info.

You are welcome.

So what is the current plan ?

Don't know. I have to make it.

You will work on it but it will take much longer ?

Really don't know.

Or are you going to postpone it because of the new dependency ?

Postpone - yes, but for how long. I don't know. I will do my best to be ASAP.

These bindings were hell on earth. 2 packages 3 PRs and still not done.

I'm unable to extend AndroidX.Credentials.Provider.CredentialProviderService using the current 1.2.0 release in nuget. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if that falls under 'still not done' since androidx.credentials.provider.CredentialProviderService is available in a native java project.

It was not surfaced. I need to check.

Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if that falls under 'still not done' since androidx.credentials.provider.CredentialProviderService is available in a native java project.

Notes:

Happy New Year

Finished bindings

... together with few more...

closing this issue

@moljac Should the updates be live by now? There doesn't appear to be any movement on nuget.org and re-downloading yields the same result (CredentialProviderService still missing)

Ticket: https://github.com/xamarin/AndroidX/issues/840

Hello @moljac I am trying to wrap androidx.credentials into separate nuget to simplify the usage but in methods _credentialManager.ClearCredentialState or _credentialManager.ClearCredentialStateAsync I get a runtime exception:

[CredManProvService] In CredentialProviderFrameworkImpl onClearCredential
[Binder] Caught a RuntimeException from the binder stub implementation.
[Binder] java.lang.NullPointerException: Parameter specified as non-null is null: method androidx.credentials.CredentialProviderFrameworkImpl$onClearCredential$outcome$1.onResult, parameter response

Is it problem in my code or it is possible that there is something with the binding ?

[moljac]

@Kebechet Not sure. I am not expert for ALL APIs in AX and GPS-FB-MLKit.

I would need a repro sample in order to make statement.

[Kebechet]

Thanks for the reply. The error is in the android library itself. More info in the ticket: https://github.com/xamarin/AndroidX/issues/840

Any news? AndroidX.Credentials.Provider.CredentialProviderService is still unavailable in latest nuget

It is available, but it is available in API34 and abstract, so you need to inherit from it and implement what is necesssary.

[vladPanasiuk]

@moljac As you can see it is still unavailable. My target api is 34.

[vladPanasiuk]

@moljac Can you confirm that it is bug in Nuget package or my project is wrong configured?

[vladPanasiuk]

@moljac still waiting answer
