@sengsational
I directly download the jar package and import it

implementation files('libs/htmlunit-android-2.59.0.jar')

I also encountered this problem. How can I solve it

lqh995204185 · 2022-03-10T12:43:49Z

@sengsational
delete:
/javascript/package-info
/netscape/javascript/package-info

Now it has worked for me in Android studio
But I'm not sure if it works in practice

zerorooot · 2022-03-11T03:14:52Z

I try to add some content to filter in pom.xml file

<exclude>netscape/package-info.class</exclude>
<exclude>netscape/javascript/package-info.class</exclude>

and delete lines 61~63

<exclude>commons-codec:commons-codec</exclude>
<exclude>commons-io:*</exclude>
<exclude>commons-logging:*</exclude>

Finally, add in Android studio

implementation files('libs/htmlunit-android-2.59.0.jar')
implementation group: 'org.apache.commons', name: 'commons-lang3', version: '3.12.0'

Now it has worked for me in Android studio

@zerorooot @lqh995204185 Thank you for the suggestions. I am unable to make progress. I am afraid that because I do not have proper context to know where and how to make the suggested changes, I am getting a Transform's input file does not exist error. Please advise me what I'm doing wrong and more detailed steps for me to make these changes.

Here are the steps I executed:

Locate htmlunit-android-2.59.0.jar (found in C:\Users\Owner\.gradle\caches\modules-2\files-2.1\net.sourceforge.htmlunit\htmlunit-android\2.59.0-SNAPSHOT\ed7b1a0371f6a0184a2cc63552086f0245295531\htmlunit-android-2.59.0.jar)
Rename htmlunit-android-2.59.0.jar to htmlunit-android-2.59.0.zip
Extract htmlunit-android-2.59.0.zip to tmp
Edit 'tmp\htmlunit-android-2.59.0-SNAPSHOT\META-INF\maven\net.sourceforge.htmlunit\htmlunit-android\pom.xml'

You need to recompile a copy based on the source code, instead of directly changing the htmlunit-android-2.59.0.jar file

Fix problem when compiling in Android HtmlUnit#2

I have not found instructions for building the htmlunit-android project in Android studio.

My first attempts at building the htmlunit-android project in Android studio have not succeeded.

I have started adding instructions, but do not know the appropriate steps to complete the build. Please make a pull request for https://github.com/sengsational/htmlunit-android/edit/main/README.md . I will work through the steps that you provide and add detail, if needed.

Building Project Source

To build this project in Android Studio:

Fork the project to your own repository using the fork button here: https://github.com/HtmlUnit/htmlunit-android.
In Android Studio, select VCS > Get from Version Control... > https://github.com/(yourGitHubId)/htmlunit-android > Clone button > New Window
// TODO: PLEASE UPDATE THIS OF STEPS SO THAT THE RESULT SPECIFIES HOW TO BUILD THE PROJECT IN ANDROID STUDIO

To try to make it a bit more clear:

for the release htmlunit-android 2.59.0 all the package-info.class files are already removed from the jar (if i made no mistake) - see https://github.com/HtmlUnit/htmlunit-android/releases
i guess the reason for this was the broken maven-compiler-plugin (version 3.10.0) - see HtmlUnit 2.59.0 subject to MCOMPILER-485 htmlunit#457
there is an updated version of the compiler plugin, the latest snapshot (2.60.0-SNAPSHOT) is build using the fixed version. Please try and check if the problem is gone.

rbri · 2022-03-14T17:21:36Z

@zerorooot

commons-codec:commons-codec
commons-io:
commons-logging:

Why you think we have to shade this jars - is there some conflict with the android sdk classes or is this something special for your project?

sengsational · 2022-03-14T19:49:11Z

there is an updated version of the compiler plugin, the latest snapshot (2.60.0-SNAPSHOT) is build using the fixed version. Please try and check if the problem is gone.

This version has resolved my problem.

Specifically, to build.gradle (:app), I simply added:

dependencies {
    implementation 'net.sourceforge.htmlunit:htmlunit-android:2.60.0-SNAPSHOT'
    ....

The above requires that settings.gradle (applicationName) include:

dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.PREFER_SETTINGS)
    repositories {
        ....
        maven { url 'https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots'}
        ....

zerorooot · 2022-03-15T03:11:24Z

@rbri
When I exclude the package-info.class file, after importing and compiling, report errors

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError

So i removed it.

rbri · 2022-03-15T06:19:47Z

@zerorooot can you please check with the latest snapshot build
And if you still het this classnotfound exception please include the name of the class from the exception

zerorooot · 2022-03-16T08:02:27Z

@rbri
Everything works fine with the latest snapshot build, thank you very much

rbri · 2022-03-16T08:36:42Z

@zerorooot a release is planned for this weekend.
Thanks for the feedback.
