I am trying to run uiautomatorviewer.bat
from Android sdk tools.
It was working fine on my previous system, now it's not.
To make it run before I used to edit *.bat
file by changing last line in *.bat
file
@echo off

Now when I try to run uiautomatorviewer.bat I see this error:
C:\Android\Sdk\tools\bin>uiautomatorviewer
-Djava.ext.dirs=..\lib\x86_64;..\lib is not supported. Use -classpath instead.
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
I was looking for different solutions how to use -classpath, but none of them helped
It's not the .bat file problem.
I had the same problem because I was using Java 10.
When I downgrade Java 10 to Java 8 it starts working again.
Remember to set variables as it is explained here http://www.automationtestinghub.com/setup-java-environment-variables/.
My Java version now on which uiautomatorviewer is working is jdk-8u171-windows-x64.exe.
