camerax sample: Unresolved reference: WindowManager

Question

I'm trying to compile the sample cameraxbasic but I get this error: Unresolved reference: WindowManager I checked gradle files and there is that dependency.

Answer 1

I reviewed the library change log at https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/window and adjusted the sample with following these changes to make it work. Hope this helps!

1. use implementation "androidx.window:window:1.1.0-alpha01"
2. replace WindowManager with WindowInfoTracker
3. replace WindowManager(context) with WindowInfoTracker.getOrCreate(view.context)
4. replace windowManager.getCurrentWindowMetrics().bounds with WindowMetricsCalculator.getOrCreate().computeCurrentWindowMetrics(requireActivity()).bounds
