maven - Android Studio - Cannot resolve symbol FacebookContentProvider -

i'm using facebook sdk 3.22.0 maven. building android sdk version 15. i'm using android studio 1.1.0 gradle.

in androidmanifest.xml i'm trying use facebookcontentprovider, every time try, issue cannot resolve symbol facebookcontentprovider. ideas on how solve this?

the specific line i'm having issue is:

<provider android:authorities="com.facebook.app.facebookcontentprovider1234"               android:name="com.facebook.facebookcontentprovider"               android:exported="true"/> 

here's androidmanifest.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.whatever" android:versioncode="100" android:versionname="1.0" >  <uses-sdk     android:minsdkversion="11"     android:targetsdkversion="11" />  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.internet"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.access_network_state"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.read_external_storage"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.write_external_storage"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.wake_lock"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.microphone"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.record_audio" />  <application     android:allowbackup="true"     android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"     android:label="@string/app_name"     android:theme="@style/apptheme">      <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version" android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />     <meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.applicationid" android:value="@string/facebook_app_id"/>      <activity         android:name="com.whatever.mainactivity"         android:label="@string/app_name"          android:screenorientation="portrait">         <intent-filter>             <action android:name="android.intent.action.main" />              <category android:name="android.intent.category.launcher" />         </intent-filter>     </activity>      <activity android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.adactivity"               android:configchanges="keyboard|keyboardhidden|orientation|screenlayout|uimode"               android:theme="@android:style/theme.translucent" />      <activity android:name="com.facebook.loginactivity"               android:theme="@android:style/theme.translucent.notitlebar"               android:label="@string/app_name" />      <activity android:name="com.whatever.friends"               android:screenorientation="portrait" />     <activity android:name="com.whatever.recent"               android:screenorientation="portrait">     </activity>      <provider android:authorities="com.facebook.app.facebookcontentprovider1234"               android:name="com.facebook.facebookcontentprovider"               android:exported="true"/> </application> 

here's build.gradle:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'  dependencies {     compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient-android:4.3.5.1'     compile('org.apache.httpcomponents:httpmime:4.3') {         exclude module: "httpclient"     }     compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.87'     compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:3.22.0' }  android {     compilesdkversion 15     buildtoolsversion "21.1.2"     defaultconfig {         applicationid "com.whatever"         minsdkversion 15         targetsdkversion 15     }     buildtypes {         release {             minifyenabled false             proguardfiles getdefaultproguardfile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.txt'         }     }     packagingoptions {         exclude 'meta-inf/license.txt'         exclude 'meta-inf/notice.txt'         exclude 'meta-inf/license'         exclude 'meta-inf/notice'         exclude 'meta-inf/dependencies'     }     productflavors {     } } 

unfortunately can't use facebookcontentprovider facebook sdk version 3.22.0 since introduced version 4.0.0 can see on github:

https://github.com/facebook/facebook-android-sdk/commits/master/facebook/src/com/facebook/facebookcontentprovider.java

you have 2 solutions:

• update facebook sdk version 4.0.0 or higher

• use nativeappcallcontentprovider this:

  <provider     android:name="com.facebook.nativeappcallcontentprovider"     android:authorities="com.facebook.app.nativeappcallcontentprovider1234"     android:exported="true" /> 

  you can find more information nativeappcallcontentprovider here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/android/3.5/class/nativeappcallcontentprovider/
