We are trying to use the revrobotics 2m distance sensor i installed the library but when it built the code the following error happened

It seems as though it could not find the library I have tried checking for updates and re installing it but it just says there is nothing to install or there are no updates. Does anyone know a solution to this?

Here is the answer I got from RevRobotics yesterday:

Our software team is working on getting an update for the 2020 WPI Lib changes. I have you on a list to be notified when there is an update.

I suggest sending an email to [email protected] and ask to be put on the same list.

You can watch progress on this at https://github.com/REVrobotics/2m-Distance-Sensor/. The github site has a pre-release version (follow the Releases link). I was able to build it from source and successfully build c++ code against it. I believe that downloading the 2m-Distance-Sensor-SDK-2020.0.1.zip would give you the same things that I built. I have no insight about whether it will work with java – but it has a better chance of working than the 0.1.0 version that you tried.
