Android Build failed with Java compilation Error #1005
Description
Bug report
Summary
When building for Android, i get "Java compilation error" with the following error:
[app path]\node_modules\@react-native-community\datetimepicker\android\src\main\java\com\reactcommunity\rndatetimepicker\RNDateTimePickerPackage.java:23: error: cannot find symbol`
` } else if (name.equals(MaterialDatePickerModule.NAME)) {`
` ^`
` symbol: variable MaterialDatePickerModule`
` location: class RNDateTimePickerPackage`
Reproducible sample code
<DateTimePicker value={date || new Date()} mode="date" display={Platform.OS === 'ios' ? 'spinner' : 'default'} onChange={onChange} />
This is the code i use for the picker. I then just submit the value to a function. Everything works in debug (using Expo Go).
Steps to reproduce
-
Implement the DateTimePicker
-
Build an Android App
Describe what you expected to happen: -
The app correctly builds

👋 @michele-l, sorry you're having an issue. This issue is being closed because it does not provide all information required by the issue template. As the issue template explains, we require that you provide a runnable example that reproduces your issue and your environment information. This means you need to provide a code snippet that we can copy-paste into an empty project and see the error ourselves, or provide a git repository with the issue.
The reason is that maintainers do not have time to try reproduce bugs themselves. Please try to minimize the superfluous code and focus only on reproducing the bug.
Please create a new issue with this and we'll be happy to review it!
