How can we get jar files/library files from Maven repo. Maven provides AAR file.
I know using Android Studio is best but I am facing some issues with my system, so for some time I have to use eclipse.
I want to get jar file/library project for this project

Please suggest me some solution.
You can download the source from here and export in to your project and if you want you can create jar easily.
The code you're trying to get is an Android library, and requires some resource to work. You need to download the res folder too from here and you need to add it to your project res folder.

I've created a library for Android and now I would like to publish it. I have followed this guide and got it to work on jcenter and I'm able to use it.
The uploaded file, however, is an *.aar file.
How can I get it to compile and upload a .jar?
The Gradle project in the blog post you refer to is an Android library project, that's why it creates aar file.
For example of a Java project (that create a jar), take a look at Bintray's GitHub examples repository. If you work with Gradle, probably the
gradle-bintray-plugin-examples/publications-example/ will be the right one to begin with.
I've created an Android project in Eclipse and I would like to add the Volley library to it. Searching on the web, I've tried these approaches:
Copy the .jar into the libs folder and right-click and add it to build-path.
Open the library as an android project, mark it as library and add it as a reference in my android app.
Nothing works. I still cannot access the classes provided by the library by importing the classes like follow: com.android.volley
Someone has a solution for this ?
The Solution:
Try this:
Add volley.jar to the libs folder. Don't add it to the build
path.
In Eclipse go to Project and make sure Build Automatically is selected.
Now in Project, click on Clean:
Project -> select Clean -> select the project.
As Volley doesn't have any resources like styles, layouts etc., its not necessary to reference it as a library project. The above should work, provided all steps are followed.
If this doesn't work ...
Make sure the library has not been added to the build path. If it is, then remove it. Now, try:
Closing and re-opening the project.
Restarting the IDE (last resort).
The build process for Volley has changed to Gradle. If you just want to use the library without building it, you can get the Jar from Maven or scroll down to the instructions to building it yourself lower in this answer.
Maven
An easier way to obtain the Jar file is to download it directly from Maven Central. You can find the latest version with this search:
http://search.maven.org/#search%7Cga%7C1%7Cg%3A%22com.mcxiaoke.volley%22
At the time of writing the 1.0.19 version can be found here:
http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=com/mcxiaoke/volley/library/1.0.19/library-1.0.19.jar
Gradle
The new way to do it is to build the project using Gradle.
You can do this by running:
git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/volley
gradle build
This will create a file in
build\intermediates\bundles\release
Then add this file into your libs folder and add it to your project.
I'm trying to add https://github.com/astuetz/PagerSlidingTabStrip to my project. Looking at it, I notice that it has files in res and depends on its own R.java file. When I make it a JAR I continue to get errors because the dependencies aren't all there. I'm not sure how to get this to work.
I keep getting errors like
import android.support cannot be resolved and everything else too. I tried referencing different answers on StackOverflow but none of them yielded a working solution.
The resources won't be packaged into the JAR file. Google is working on a new packaging scheme called AAR which is supported by Android Studio.
In order to use this third-party library in your own project, you should clone it to a local repo. Then you can import it directly into your Eclipse workspace and then add the Eclipse project to the classpath of your app's project.
Download the whole source code from https://github.com/astuetz/PagerSlidingTabStrip by git tool.
On your Eclipse IDE, import the library as exsisting source code at Android option.
Add the library your add before into your project.
I'm trying to build a jar from the https://github.com/loopj/android-async-http source code but have been unsuccessful.
I also tried including the source as a library in my android project in android studio but was unable to.
I want to build from source because the jar's available in maven and in the github repo are too old and I want to use and test some of the new features available in the source.
How can I either build the jar and include the jar in my android studio project or simply properly include the source in my android studio project?
I was able to build the jar myself in ubuntu:
cd android-async-http/library
gradle build
That generated a build directory that contained a jar of the library.
Do you just need a Jar or you want to build the jar yourself. If you are just looking for the jar, they are already compiled and ready to download on this link here.
Looks like github download is not working. Use this link to download the latest android-async-http jar
I am trying to use Maven and JDeveloper for a week now and I'm always get stuck with the same problem. I can download and install the extensions and create new Maven projects. When I package or compile them I can see that the sources are being downloaded and added to my local repository but they are not added in my .jar and I cannot use them in my project unless I add them as lib manually in my project.
If I try to add the folder (where the downloaded jars are) as lib folder to project they are only added as jar and I cannot use them.
Is there another way to update my dependencies from JDeveloper? How can I integrate them properly to my project so I can use them? Is there a newer Hands-On maybe solving my problems? What am I doing wrong? Is there a template project to download maybe? I hope I could explain my problem good enough...
