I am trying to use the zip4j jar file in my android project to password protect the zip file in the application. Copied the jar in lib folder & added it to build path. The code compiles fine. But when I run the project it gives VerifyError.

NOTE: It works fine if I added the source code to the project instead of the jar.

where did you put your jar file? not necessary, but in some cases it works as follows: you need to put your jar in assets folder. then you configure your Java builtpath. add the jar from assets folder, then (in eclipse, get to order and export tab and check the jar file) export the jar. it automatically adds it into your applications lib folder. i don't know why but it didn't work the other way around (coppying the jar in lib and adding it to builtpath) in one of my applications. you can also change your java compiler.
