I’m sorry for your misunderstanding. I just think it will be more convenient for me to ask you questions in the future

Hi,Danie  
I have successfully compiled on cp-6.4 branch according to the configuration you said,  
However, after successfully building in online, I opened the document on my mobile phone, but the document did not load out. Have you ever encountered this situation?

Hi,

Good to hear you managed to build it. I haven’t encountered such a problem before, I only had a problem with text being invisible and that was due to building from a wrong branch. Maybe new code was added that caused this problem. Check other topics in the forum, maybe someone else experienced it. If I were you, I would try to build from master branch instead of cp-6.4, see if the problem persists.

Hi,  
The build core code was built from the cp-6.4 branch and I sent an email to the official to confirm it,  
I built the online part from the master branch,  
Let me try another solution to this problem,  
Danie, thank you for your patient reply

Hi,  
Danie,  
I have successfully built and I want to tell you the good news  
The branches that were built successfully are:  
core: distro/collabora/cp-6.4  
online: distro/collabora/co-6-4  
Thank you for your reply in this period. I hope we can continue to discuss other problems with Android compilation in the future

Hi,

Glad to hear that. I know how annoying the whole process can be, so I am happy I could help. I hope this thread helps other developers out there who are struggling with the same problem.

Cheers

Hi everyone, I know it’s been long time, I need help to build Collabora on my own, I used these branches for both LibreOffice core and Collabora:  
Core: distro/collabora/co-22.05  
Collabora: distro/collabora/co-22-05  
All the builds and “make” already successfull, but when I tried to build in my Android studio, I always get this error:

`ERROR:/home/ivanhutomo/Documents/Collabora2/android/build/app/intermediates/merged_res/debug/values-b+ca+valencia_values-b+ca+valencia.arsc.flat: AAPT: error: failed to deserialize`

I already spent almost one week to find out where is the problem and also change and rebuild another branch as well.

Below is my current gradle version:  
v7.0.2

Anyone could help? My plan is to use the lib of Collabora office as a document viewer integrated with my own app. Thank you so much.
