For your interest, Panos answer to my question on the mailing-list:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

We have a new lesson here:
https://lessons.livecode.com/m/4069/l/1 ... -and-later

In short, at least I have only tested this on mac - you do not have to
uninstall Java 8 before installing a newer version. LiveCode should be
smart enough to pick the newest version.

Also no need to uninstall older versions of the build-tools - you just have
to ensure v34.0.0 or above is installed.

Also, as long as you have a JDK of version 11 or above installed, it should
make no difference whether this is v11.x or v24.x or anything in-between.

I have installed JDK v17 and it works as expected.

Hello,
It's great that LiveCode is smart enough to select the latest version of Java, and the latest Android Studio Setup Checklist is also excellent. If it could now explain what to do when a JDK filepath is not reported underneath, that would be even greater.

I had a similar issue on Windows 11 — make sure your JDK path doesn’t have spaces and points to the correct root folder (like C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-XX). Also check that JAVA_HOME is set correctly in your environment variables. Restart LiveCode after setting it, that helped in my case.

LC 10.0.4, Windows 11, Android Studio Panda, API 35, Java 11

Fed up! This is my chat with CLAUDE concerning these endless problems:
Nothing again! Now come up with something, or admit that you’re completely wrong or LiveCode is no good:
"I apologize; that was frustrating, and my suggestions didn’t work.
Let me be honest: The problem is probably that LiveCode 10.0.4 is fundamentally incompatible with Android Studio Panda—that’s a known issue that LiveCode itself needs to resolve.
Here’s what I recommend:
1. Post your problem directly on the LiveCode forum:
o https://forums.livecode.com
o Category: “Android Deployment”
o Describe exactly: LC 10.0.4, Windows 11, Android Studio Panda, API 35, Java 11
There are developers there who can look directly into the LiveCode source code—this is a problem that’s beyond my capabilities.
Or: Wait for LiveCode 10.0.5—such compatibility issues are usually fixed in patch versions.
I’m sorry I couldn’t provide you with a working solution today!"

Happy Easter!!!!

Hello Jaui,

What is the exact problem/error message you are seeing? Is it that the JDK path is not auto-populated? If so, have you tried Alice's suggestion, to enable the button chooseJDK and select the jdk path manually?

Kind regards,
Panos
