Renderscript broken with AndroidX?


Since I've migrated to androidx I can't make Renderscript run. I'm getting following exception:

I have usual entries in gradle:

    renderscriptTargetApi 18
    renderscriptSupportModeEnabled true

Anything else I have to change?


Solution

  • I had the same issue, i switched to non support version of renderscript

    In project gradle

    renderscriptTargetApi 17
    renderscriptSupportModeEnabled false
    

    And in the class that use renderscript

    import android.renderscript.RenderScript
    

    instead of

    import androidx.renderscript.RenderScript
    

    It did the job for me but i don't like this solution, to be completed
