Can someone help me decipher this error message and come up with a solution to the problem.
It occurs when I select Android Barcode Scanner in the inclusions pane and try to build the app on my phone.

Probably you have the wrong version of Java installed, you need Java 8.

I downloaded Java 8.
Now it doesn't work to test the app regardless of the settings...

This thread may help, you need to completely remove your old copy of Java:

I have now tried uninstalling java and reinstalling it.
No difference, same error message.

After a lot of back and forth, I have now managed to reinstall everything.
Unfortunately, I'm back at square one. When I check the Android scanner
in the inclusions pane, and try to build for testing, I get the original error message
(could not encode class bundle)

Any new suggestions?

Did you install the latest Build Tools? You need those too, which you can get via Android Studio.

If none of that works, I'm afraid I'm out of ideas. You might write to support@livecode.com and see if they have any suggestions.

Hello all,

This error is thrown if a newer version of the build tools is installed. It seems the barcode widget requires a tool that is not present or has changed location in this version of the build tools.

See this bug report for a workaround:
