I can just give you some off the cuff instructions because the process is intended to be very simple and clean.
You need to open your build.gradle file, but there are two, and the one you are looking for specifically is the "(Module: app)" build.gradle file which is usually the one under the first build.gradle file if you've created a standard template application using android studio. After you open that .gradle file, if you scroll all the way down to the bottom, you'll see the function labelled "dependencies" which is where you'll add your bitcoinj dependency. Somewhere in that function, doesn't matter where, add this line to your project implementation 'org.bitcoinj:bitcoinj-core:0.14.7' android studio will prompt you to re-sync your project which you need to do. That's it. Your dependency was added and you can begin using it. And you shouldn't see that error anymore either. On another note, not to make things too complicated off the bat, but if you are trying to push a project to the app store, you need to omit the scrypt library that comes with bitcoinj as it contains some compiled c code that will screw up your APK's. Don't worry about this until you need to though. On Thu, Nov 15, 2018 at 2:00 AM Bobby_Bouche <[email protected]> wrote: > is there instructions?
