Added this to the activity.xml
<com.github.barteksc.pdfviewer.PDFView android:id="@+id/pdfView" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="500dp"/>
dependency
implementation 'com.github.barteksc:android-pdf-viewer:3.2.0-beta.1'
even after syncing the build the class is not available
Tried undoing the dependency and synced without it and later added again which still did not resolve the issue.
You are seeing this issue because the original repo is published using Jcenter, which is now deprecated on Android.
As mentioned in the issue that I linked, there is a fork of the original project (published as mhiew/AndroidPdfViewer) that is now also published on maven and you can use that to import the library.
