Add JavaML library to Android Project


I'm new to Android, even new to Java. I'm also new to SO, so I can't post more than 2 links, sorry :/. I need to use a LibSVM object contained in JavaML library (java-ml.sourceforge.net), and every time I want to use it, I import libsvm.LibSVM(no failure there), and use LibSVM test = new LibSVM();. At this moment my app crashes with a NoClassDefFoudError:

I read How do I add a library project to Android Studio?, How to add classpath in an Android Studio project, but it didn't work (for the latter, I am stuck at step 5 because Android Studio does not recognizes my .jar when creating a new module).

I added compile files("libs/javaml/javaml-0.1.7.jar") in my build.gradle, also all the files from javaml/lib/ "for more convenience", as the doc says (java-ml.sourceforge.net/content/installing-library). Then Build clean, and rebuild. Still a nope.

What is weird to me is that Android Studio has no trouble finding the classes, yet for some reason my phone begs to differ.

I would be extremely glad if someone could provide me a indication of how to proceed. Thanks in advance!


Solution

  • Ok, so I don't really know what happened, but I re-compiled everything, uninstalled the app on my phone, built everything again and now it works. No idea why, because I have been struggling on the issue for the whole afternoon.

    Sorry for the problem-not-problem.
