EVE 2.2.0 setRemoveOnCancelPolicy error on Android < 4.4

I'll see if I can add a check around it for the existence of that method.

Can you check the latest commit to the release branch? It should protect against this issue...

Thank you for the quick fix. The updated version of EVE does (still) work on the Nexus 5 and now also the Samsung SII, but for Android 2.2 it's still broken. This may be due to our use of Proguard, I'll take a look at that right now. If that doesn't work, I'll let you know.

FYI the current error on a HTC Wildfire running Android 2.2.1.

Update:

I guess it's unrelated to our use of Proguard, because that should have caused the same issues on Android 4.4 devices, which it doesn't.

Instant update:

Seems like it was a Proguard problem for some reason.

I've added these two Proguard exceptions in our configuration. Not sure if they are both necessary (in our configuration the second one is probably already kept):

-keep class java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentNavigableMap.** { *; }

-keep class com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.deser.BasicDeserializerFactory.** { *; }

@ludost I updated my previous comment. For now it seems like the fix solved our problem. Thank you!

Although the error is still displayed in logcat, the app does not crash:

Thanks!
