JRAF repo not responding about android-switch-backport HOT 9 CLOSED

You are absolutely right, the server hosting it is currently experiencing network problems.
This is taken care of, but unfortunately it could take a few days before it's operational again.

In the meantime:

• the android library project is not impacted
• for maven: use mvn install to package the library and install it in your local repo
• for gradle: use gradle install to package the library and install it in your local repo

Thanks for a quick answer

I'll leave this open until the server problem is resolved.

My project uses the jraf repo and now it is broken. How can I install the library in a local repo?

@parespacochaga Please read my comment above ( #40 (comment) )

@parespacochaga @BoD means to clone this repo (android-switch-backport), and then run gradle install. This will install the same artifact in your local repo, so in theory it doesn't need to be fetched remotely when you build your own project.

In my case, I already had the artifact installed locally from prior builds, but I still have this issue. This is because by default Gradle will try to fetch updated artifacts for any depedencies that are using the + syntax.

If you're using Android Studio, a temporary fix is to put it in "Offline mode", which tells Gradle to ignore daily checks for updated artifacts (if you're using the + syntax in dependencies). See third bullet point here for instructions:
http://tools.android.com/recent/androidstudio040released

Note that if you haven't previous successfully built your project with android-switch-backport included, you'll first have to do the gradle install step above, then set up "Offline mode".

Thank you @barbeau
Now the server is running again, I will check this method the next time.

My server issues should now be resolved for good. Closing this issue now. Sorry for the inconvenience!
