Could not find com.github.kenglxn.QRGen:javase:3.0.0.

[DavidR-sevenbel]

Dependabot tried to update us to the newest version of this library (2.6.0 to 3.0.0).
This is the full changelog:

-    implementation "com.github.kenglxn.QRGen:javase:2.6.0"
+    implementation "com.github.kenglxn.QRGen:javase:3.0.0"

We're now getting an error during compile time.

> Task :Generator:compileJava FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':Generator:compileJava'.
> Could not resolve all files for configuration ':Generator:compileClasspath'.
   > Could not find com.github.kenglxn.QRGen:javase:3.0.0.
     Searched in the following locations:
       - https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/com/github/kenglxn/QRGen/javase/3.0.0/javase-3.0.0.pom
       - https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/com/github/kenglxn/QRGen/javase/3.0.0/javase-3.0.0.pom

     Required by:
         project :Generator

It seems that the module javase is not available on jitpack.io
This can also be seen here: https://jitpack.io/#kenglxn/QRGen/3.0.0 where no subprojects can be selected, and the recommended gradle include shorthand is 'com.github.kenglxn:QRGen:3.0.0'.

When we change the dependency in our build gradle file to this, it can find the dependency, BUT none of our import statements in the java code work anymore. (e.g. Intellij cannot find any QRCode class to import)

Is this expected behaviour?
If yes, can you please provide a migration path

Thanks for letting me know. I’ll take a look.

May be an issue with java 11. Could you try 2.7.0, which is the same but compiled for java 1.8.
I’ll look into the issue as soon as possible.

[kenglxn]

Jitpack builds with java 8 by default, so the 3.0.0 tag was failing build on jitpack, which is why the group id is missing.

I tried retagging and rereleasing the 3.0.0 version, but does not look like that helped the build on jitpack.

I rerelased it as 3.0.1 which should fix the issue. https://jitpack.io/#kenglxn/QRGen/3.0.1

[kenglxn]

3.0.0 is now rebuilt and available: https://jitpack.io/#kenglxn/QRGen/3.0.0

3.0.1 looks like it works for us
thanks for the quick fix 👍
