error: cannot find symbol when building android app in flutter using pdftron


I am trying to use the dependency https://pub.dev/packages/pdftron_flutter pdf tron to show pdf files in flutter app, when I try to build the android app, I get the error

C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Pub\Cache\hosted\pub.dev\pdftron_flutter-1.0.1- 32\android\src\main\java\com\pdftron\pdftronflutter\helpers\PluginUtils.java:987: error: cannot find symbol stringRes != R.string.document_save_error_toast_message; ^ symbol: variable string location: class R

this is the flutter doctor output

I tried to implement all the solutions in the link "error: cannot find symbol" when building for Android in flutter

Like running flutter clean and changing compileSdkVersion, minSdkVersion targetSdkVersion to 34,21,34 respectively but it did not work


Solution

  • I solved this answer by downgrading com.android.application version from 8.3.0 to 7.3.0
