Cannot resolve class com.smarteist.autoimageslider.SliderView in Android Studio


I try to use the library "com.github.smarteist:autoimageslider:1.4.0", but I cannot.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. I add the dependency: implementation 'com.github.smarteist:autoimageslider:1.4.0' into build.gradle(:app).

  2. I add jcenter(), maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' } into build:gradle(Project).

  3. I have synced the project.

  4. I put the example inside the <androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout> label.

enter image description here

  1. I received the error: "Cannot resolve class com.smarteist.autoimageslider.SliderView".

I am using compileSdk 32, minSdk 21 Can you help me?

Thanks in advance.

            app:sliderScrollTimeInSec="1"
            app:sliderStartAutoCycle="true" />


    </LinearLayout>


</androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

I have created a new project, I add these three files and I receive the same error: "Could not find com.smarteist.autoimageslider.SliderView"


Solution

  • I have found the solution. The problem was that I was adding the implementation text line in the gradle:app but I should have added it in the setting.gradle. I hope my answer can help other people who find the same problem. Regards!
