Recompiling of Android apk fails

Post by WuBu » Mon Sep 09, 2013 3:34 pm

I have tried to Instrument our apk on several Android devices where I installed the 4.1.0. Service and also made sure, there is no other Version on. When instrumenting the apk, the green bar stops at appr. 70% and then results in an error with the following Details :


System.Exception: Failed to recompile the instrumented code. See details for more information: I: Smaling...
[3296,22] Error for input '"Login ': Unterminated string literal
[3302,24] Error for input '"': Unterminated string literal
[3297,4] missing STRING_LITERAL at 'invoke-static'
[3302,11] mismatched input 'Premium' expecting REGISTER
....


I understand that recompiling fails, but as our App and compiling works we have no idea how to get the app instrumented and deployed. Please help.

Hello,

You can try to instrument the apk file using source code.
Please read the section "Instrumentation with Source Code" in our user guide.

Bernhard
