Eclipse is giving me an error on the following line:
decodedString= Base64.decode(imagestring, Base64.DEFAULT);
It says the decode method requires API 8 and my Manifest specifies the min API as 7.
Call requires API level 8 (current min is 7): android.util.Base64#decode
Here's my issue:
I've had this line of code in my app for months. It has never given me this error before. I opened this file in Eclipse, added 1 non-relevant line of code, and when I saved it gave me this error.
The only thing I can think is that yesterday I updated my SDK and Android plugin.
What can I do here? Is my only option to increase my min API level to 8? Why did it never give me this error before. My project has specified 7 as the min API since its inception (well over a year).
