It is also necessary to set the minSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion according to the min api reported in the error message. build.gradle
: defaultConfig { applicationId “com.mypack.myapp” minSdkVersion 26 targetSdkVersion 29 versionCode 1 versionName “2.0”
After hours of struggling, I solved it by including the following within app/build.gradle:
android {
compileOptions {
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}
}
