Can someone pl. help on this thread, i am facing same issue

Any help on this please. Thanks and Regards, Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,

It looks like RenderScript support requires some specific versions of Android tools:

  • Android SDK Tools revision 22.2 or higher
  • Android SDK Build-tools revision 18.1.0 or higher

You can see/update versions of these in the SDK Manager.

Hope this helps,

Chris

Dear Chris,

I have below version in my machine

  • Android SDK Tools - 26.1.1
  • Android SDK Build-tools - 27.0.1

Thanks and Regards,
Rajesh

This article is a bit old, but might point you in the right direction. Assuming that your app is using Renderscript somewhere, you might need to set which version to support:

https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2013/09/renderscript-in-android-support-library.html

In your project.properties file, the article recommends setting your values to the versions you have:

renderscript.target=18 (change this to the API level)
renderscript.support.mode=true
sdk.buildtools=27.0.1Hope this helps,Chris
