brodybits opened a new issue #69: androidx support URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova/issues/69 From discussion in apache/cordova-android#565 I think that `androidx` is not supported properly and needs to be improved. Described in a number of places including: - <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51280090/what-is-androidx> - <https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/> (with important info in <https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/migrate>) - <https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2018/05/hello-world-androidx.html> In short: `androidx` Java packages replace use of `android` Java packages for "unbundled" Java packages, meaning part of the SDK and not part of the Android system libraries. Use of old "unbundled" Java packages seems to be deprecated, obsolete. I tried to explain in apache/cordova-android#565 that this should not be an issue with the Cordova Android platform itself. I think we will have to update at least some of the plugins, though. I am flagging this as a bug at the top level due to usability issues that I think have started to come to light in apache/cordova-android#565, especially with the PSPDFKit. I would *personally* like to see this resolved before we finish the Cordova 9 release (#10). This is my personal opinion for the sake of usability and not to be interpreted as the official position of Apache Cordova.
