Would you like to work on the issue?

Assign to someone else.

Hi @vsquared Thank you for reporting this issue. I looks like this is something we will have to fix within the Android Mode as its gradle is grabbing a different JDK to run the process.

@SableRaf can you move this issue?

Hello everyone, processing github newbie here. How can I stay notified on the progress on this issue? Desperately need android mode for my thesis. Or is there a workaround I could use until this is fixed?

is there a workaround I could use until this is fixed?
Android mode with Processing version 4.3 should work ok.

Hi @remag2901. As @vsquared mentioned, the current workaround is to use Processing 4.3.4.

If you need help getting set up, feel free to post on the Processing forum: https://discourse.processing.org/c/processing-android

Note: We’re currently migrating Processing to use Gradle as the default build system. This should eventually make it easier to run sketches on Android without relying on a dedicated Android mode.
