...does not work.

Crashes immediately in Async.init()

I think you need to use compile-time instrumentation in order to get it to work on Android as Davlik lacks the agent instrumentation capabilities of the full JVM?

neilyoung commented 1 year ago

Whatever this means..

neilyoung commented 1 year ago

Anyway, don't bother with this. I put it aside.

HaloFour commented 1 year ago

It means that Async.init() can't work because Android doesn't use a proper Java runtime. There are maven and gradle build plugins provided which can perform the transformations at compile-time so that it doesn't depend on a specific runtime, and should be able to run on Android.

neilyoung commented 1 year ago

Well, I'm using the gradle plugin, but maybe wrong.

implementation 'com.ea.async:ea-async:1.2.3'

then

static { Async.init(); }

There was no other condition mentioned
