Hi, is this SDK abandoned?

It took me couple of days to find proper information about all MS projects related to Android and get a picture of it.

From what I understand https://github.com/OfficeDev/msa-auth-for-android
and https://github.com/microsoftgraph/msgraph-sdk-android-msa-auth-for-android-adapter is the new/modern way of authentication with MS Graph.

It looks like they also have capabilities of OneDrive for Android but I am not sure if supports all.

Can someone shed a light on this confusion and whether is OnDrive Android SDK is abandoned.

I have already spent a week on getting silent login working with OneDrive Android SDK and just realized one of its dependencies msa-auth relies on deprecated Apache HTTP client and causes crash unless you add

<uses-library android:name="org.apache.http.legacy" android:required="false"/>

I asked myself the same question a few days ago when dealing with the old LiveSDK API that is now entirely retired. This SDK works fine and I went with it because it seemed a bit more simple than the more general MS graph android SDK. Although this SDK seems largely unmaintained.

Also see:
microsoftgraph/msgraph-sdk-android#94

For me there was no doubt that I will use this sdk only

  1. if I get the sources
  2. I am able to generate it locally
  3. I am able to maintain it myself.

After a week's effort I have achieved this goals mostly. I really hope there are no more errors.

However, I am not fully satisfied with the current situation. My experience in handling this sdk has not become part of the community. I would have expected some guidance on how to do this, as I am a novice to the open source world.

So the answer to the question: "Is this sdk abandoned?" is partly yes.
However , the problem of a legacy code library can be solved

Thank you for reaching out and for your patience. This SDK is being officially deprecated. See #172 for more information
