Cannot find flatbuffers-1.4.0.jar - flatbuffers

A very simple/dumb question as the title suggests.
But I've spent hours into this and no luck yet.
I searched its official site: https://google.github.io/flatbuffers/, didn't find its jar.
I was hoping to find some instructions to download it source code and build a jar file like this for Thrift: https://thrift.apache.org/lib/java
But, no luck, so, anyone has any ideas please help me out!

There is no .jar provided. You are supposed to include the files in java/ and the generated code in your project manually.
(edit): FlatBuffers now on Maven Central: https://github.com/google/flatbuffers/issues/3946

Installing dependencys with Gradle Kotlin DSL does not work

Hi everyone I am new to IntelliJ in general and especially to Gradle and I feel like a total noob. :D
Im not sure if this is a Kotlin DSL thing or if I just do it the wrong way and it wouldn't work in Groovey either.
After hours of trial and error and reading other SO posts I'm still not able to install a simple dependency... it can't be that hard...
Currently I am playing around with Jetpack Compose for Desktop even though it's still in alpha and it works but for the love of god I am not able to add a dependency.
So here is my Problem:
I try to install the dependency like they say I should in
https://developer.android.com/jetpack/compose/navigation#kts
and yes I know it's an android package so it may not compile or it may crash during runtime but shouldn't it at least find and download the dependency???
So... if I add
implementation("androidx.navigation:navigation-compose:2.4.0-alpha10")
to my build.gradle.kts
And try to compile it I get an exception during the build process:
What I tried so far:
I checked if the repository maven("https://maven.pkg.jetbrains.space/public/p/compose/dev")
who is configured in my build.gradle.kts repositories-section and in my settings.gradle.kts pluginManagement-section contains the package that I want.
The site https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/androidx.navigation/navigation-compose?repo=space-public-compose-dev tells me, that the repository contains the package that I need.
I checked the error log itself.
But I don't relly know what it tries to say.
I use Java SDK16, since I expect downward compatibility and the fact that the dependency is still in alpha I assume it should be compatible.
I use Kotlin 1.5....
that's it.
Thanks for reading all that :) I really appreciate your time... If I forgot some crucial information let me know and I will add it as soon as I can.
the problem which I feel is, is you are basically opening the wrong file. (I don't use jetpack compose so the answer might differ)
on the top left corner in the image, where there is project dropdown, open it and select android.
now there will be a different set of files in the Gradle folder, in fact, there will be 2 different files in that folder.
build.gradle (project: <project_name>)
build.gradle (Module: <project_name>.app)
open the second file and there will be dependencies copy + paste implementation code there.
the file which you have opened is actually the first file.
Well... here I am back again answering my own question.
After I switched to the terminal in IntelliJ Idea (which to be honest I could have thought of that prior to posting my question) there was highlighted text that gave me the necessary insight, why it wasn't working.
And after some searching the web in order to find out what an "aar" file is and why I didn't get a jar file like I expected it turns out that android has it's own little file format for android applications and that those cannot be used in regular java/kotlin projects.
I read somewhere, that 'aar' files contain a jar file and some other stuff and extracting the jar file from the aar file may be a way to get it working, but it didn't fix anything, maybe because the dependencies of the navigation package are aar files as well and therefor I'd need those packages as well and extract the jar file from those as well and it all seems like this isn't the right way...
So I guess I have to wait until Jetpack Compose for desktop somehow is able to use aar files or until the repositories deliver the packages in a regular jar file.

Added JAR File in Library - buy cannot use

I added a JAR file into the Netbeand (v8) library and added the jar to the compile and file tabs. When I add the import clause, Netbeans is telling me that the library is incorrect. After reading everything I can on what is supposed to be easy, this is getting very frustrating for this newbie. Am I missing an essential step before I can use this library?
Answered by fixing my own typo. Fixed and works.

Atlassian Bamboo import issue

I am trying to create an hello world task for bamboo by following the instructions mentioned here
https://developer.atlassian.com/server/bamboo/introduction-to-writing-tasks/
I am facing an error while importing the first library "import com.atlassian.bamboo.build.logger.BuildLogger;"
I've tried searching online for the solution and the majority of such errors require you to externally download the jar file, but I couldn't find the jar as well.
I don't think I will need to download an external jar just to run hello world program, but if that's the case, can you help me find the jar (or maven dependency), else can you guide me on some other way for resolving the issue?
The artifact you're looking for is atlassian-bamboo-api-6.x.x.jar, BUT you're supposed to be able to reference it after doing an atlas-create-bamboo-plugin at the very beginning (or in step 2 of the tutorial you linked).

Beginner's Guide to Setup Xuggler__Help

I've found the "Beginner's Guide to Setup Xuggler" article from here. I was trying to follow the best chosen answer. While going through the steps, I got stuck # "Run ivy from command-line as follows:" I didn't had Ivy at first, so I headed to Ivy's download page, and downloaded from the Snapshot Build section of the site. Then, I tested with both jar files, but while running the command stated in the Beginner's Guide, I'm getting this message: "ivy configuration file not found: ivysettings.xml". So, what did I do wrong, need I follow the "Building from source" section from the site? If so, can you please give me a detailed description of how to do it, I'm kinda new in these things. Long story short, I need to know how o get a legit "ivy.jar" file as stated in the command line of the Guide.
Ok, so I've solved the problem my own way, kind of. So, I'm gonna share it here so that other fellows like me may profit from it. So, what I did was that I (obviously) downloaded Xuggler 5.4. Then, I downloaded its dependencies manually as listed here. Then, on my IDE, I just had to import Xuggler and all of its dependencies which I previously downloaded and BAM, it worked like a charm. So, if any of you are having problem finding those dependencies or have any queries concerning this "unofficial" method of mine, you can contact me via email. I'll gladly help. :)
I don't know from Xuggler, but... the error message said you're missing ivysettings.xml. The message is probably from ivy.jar, so you definitely have that. ivysettings.xml is a required Ivy config file that tells what repositories you want to pull jars from. There may be a default one in the Xuggler distro, but probably not. You need to look at the ivy documentation to get farther. Or, use Maven instead. While I'm not a fan of Maven, for this kind of situation it may be easier.

Importing which library?

recently I downloaded this open source project and I am trying to compile it.
However, one of the line is giving me an error.
"import com.sun.org.apache.xpath.internal.functions.WrongNumberArgsException;"
Seems that i am missing a library.... is there a way to know WHICH library do I need?
I tried searching on google for com.sun.org.apache.xpath.internal.functions,
while there seem to be a result on kickjava.com/src containing the source code.
I think i need the Jar file right?
I tried downloading xalan from apache and it didn't work.
I tried to see if there's a xpath library, but I dont think there's a xpath library?
searching for xpath led me to xalan.
I have also tried Xerces-J-bin.2.9.1 .
Thanks!
The WrongNumberArgsException class in Xalan is in the org.apache.xpath.functions package. With the Xalan jar in your project, you should just be able to change the import statement in the open source code to use the correct path.
The OpenSource author (what ever "this open source project" is) imported the internal exception class from the sun adopted xalan classes in Java 6. This should not be done at all! Will not work with older VMs and may be broken with later ones.
Never import com.sun.*!
