I'm trying to implement the new GCM Client
on Android following the guidelines from Google (https://developers.google.com/cloud-messaging/android/client).
I'm receiving slightly different errors for two different devices. I noticed that I receive NoSuchMethodError for method getNoBackupFilesDir for both the devices.
This is the logcat for an Android 4.2.2:

At line 113 I have this:
InstanceID instanceID = InstanceID.getInstance(applicationContext);
Used here:
// AsyncTask to register Device in GCM Server
private void registerInBackground() {
new AsyncTask<Void, Void, String>() {
@Override
protected String doInBackground(Void... params) {
String msg = "";
InstanceID instanceID = InstanceID.getInstance(applicationContext);
try {
regId = instanceID.getToken(GCM_SENDER_ID,
GoogleCloudMessaging.INSTANCE_ID_SCOPE, null);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return msg;
}
@Override
protected void onPostExecute(String msg) {
if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(regId)) {
Toast.makeText(
applicationContext,
"Registered with GCM Server successfully.\n\n"
+ msg, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
Log.e(TAG, "Registered with GCM Server successfully. RegID: " + regId);
} else {
Toast.makeText(
applicationContext,
"Reg ID Creation Failed.\n\nEither you haven't enabled Internet or GCM server is busy right now. "
+ "Make sure you enabled Internet and try registering again after some time."
+ msg, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Log.e(TAG, "Reg ID Creation Failed!!!");
}
}
}.execute(null, null, null);
}
I correctly imported the Google Play Services
library as described in the documentation.(https://developers.google.com/android/guides/setup)
Has anyone encountered this errors? How can I resolve this?
Development environment used: Eclipse Kepler SR2 with ADT
If you need additional info please comment.
I saw that the method getNoBackupFilesDir
is found in android.support.v4.content.ContextCompat.
Seems that the problem was that I had an old appcompat-v7 included in the project. Download with the SDK manager
the last version of Android Support Library
and then follow the steps for Adding libraries with resources and add the library to your application project.
