[redcancode]

this is a very interesting issue. i think it shouldn't be happening. your error log mentions this file /node_modules/react-native-fbsdk/android/src/main/java/com/facebook/reactnative/androidsdk/FBLikeViewManager.java which doesn't exist in 0.10.0, you can check it in the repo. are you sure you've pulled in the correct version of this library?

[roshan-p]

@redcancode OK So I have tried delete node_modules re-install and build app again I still get the same errors but not with "FBLikeViewManager.java" anymore.

Has anyone been able to solve the problem?

[janicduplessis]

Try version 1.0.0-rc.3 it should be compatible with androidx

[tokinonagare]

try to use androidx

// build.gradle 
implementation "androidx.annotation:annotation:1.1.0"

// where use it
import androidx.annotation.Nullable;

[roshan-p]

Try version 1.0.0-rc.3 it should be compatible with androidx

Thanks It's work! :)

[ronakjain-2]

Try version 1.0.0-rc.3 it should be compatible with androidx

can you please tell us. which module of 1.0.0-rc.3 version we need to use and where to use it either in build.gradle or in package.json.

I am also getting the same issue when doing change Upgrade com.android.tools.build:gradle to v3.2.1. Upgrade compileSdkVersion to 28. Update your app to use Jetpack (AndroidX)

[rkbansal]

@ronakjain-2 , it will be react-native-fbsdk "react-native-fbsdk": "1.0.0-rc.3"

[praveens96]

1.0.0-rc.3 solves this issue but receiving issue saying: error: constructor FBSDKPackage in class FBSDKPackage cannot be applied to given types; new FBSDKPackage()

[NestedLooper]

@praveens96 it needs to be new FBSDKPackage(mCallbackManager) If you have an additional new FBSDKPackage()without the callback manager being passed then remove it.

Also make sure you are not importing FBSDKPackage multiple times, as linking can add a second import. import com.facebook.reactnative.androidsdk.FBSDKPackage;

[faith-hb]

try to use androidx

// build.gradle 
implementation "androidx.annotation:annotation:1.1.0"

// where use it
import androidx.annotation.Nullable;

Still won't do

[harleylovitos]

try this one. https://flutter.dev/docs/development/packages-and-plugins/androidx-compatibility#not-recommended-manually-migrate-your-app

[harleylovitos]

i think this is the key

In android/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties change the line starting with distributionUrl like this: distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.10.2-all.zip

[harleylovitos]

npx jetify

[muzammilhussainshah]

npx jetify

Working

[tgamauf]

try to use androidx

// build.gradle 
implementation "androidx.annotation:annotation:1.1.0"

// where use it
import androidx.annotation.Nullable;

This + installing npx seems to have done it for me.
