error: package com.google.android.gms.common does not exist

Wed Mar 25, 2015 9:25 am

hi,

I am using a cordova plugin in my app and I get the following error

I think this has to do with google play services dependency.

I found this plugin to add Google Play Services
https://github.com/MobileChromeApps/g...

But I'd need some help on this regarding where the folders / files should be put

Or is there a way I can use this: https://github.com/ptgamr/cordova-goo...

I just want google play service available in my app as my geo-fencing plugin depends on google play services.

Thanks,
M&M

Hello M&M,

Your plugin should be placed in the same folder as Toster tutorial plugin.

I do not understand the answer. I.have explained the problem quite clearly i guess. I was expecting something better than just asking to repeatedly refer to the tutorials. The.quality of answers on the forum has gone down drastically or they don't get answered at all

M&M,

Your question related to Java project structure.

error: package com.google.android.gms.common does not exist
I think this has to do with google play services dependency.

No, it is related to your file location in the Java project.
Basically, it says, that you haven't created folder structure, thus it can't find it.

all i am doing is to use a geolocation plugin and from what I understand com.google.android.gms.common is related to Google Play Services

http://developer.android.com/referenc...

I have seen other plugins also having dependency to Google Play Services. So how do I include this in my app? If you can let me know the file structure and what/where to copy to enable Google Play Service in my app

thanks,
M&M
