Using original AsyncTask from Android in libGDX

Question

I need to use AsyncTask from the android.os package. Yes, I know that there is an AsyncTask from the com.badlogic.utils package, but I need those one. So, I imported that:

import android.os.AsyncTask;

Used SDK: Android 20 API Platform.

And when I try to run, I get errors:

Error:(4, 18) error: package android.os does not exist
Error:(146, 38) error: cannot find symbol class AsyncTask
Error:(30, 26) error: cannot find symbol method execute()
Error:(148, 9) error: method does not override or implement a method from a supertype

Does this mean that native Android classes are not active in the libGDX?

Answer 1

You can't access Android APIs inside core module . Core module is generic part for all platforms.

By interfacing you can use access platform specific code.
