Failing to build APK after updating to 7.5.0

[Adrianogba]

Describe the bug
After upgrading freeRASP to version 7.5.0, the Android build fails due to an unresolved reference to ScreenProtector in the native Kotlin code. It seems that a required dependency is missing or not properly included.

---

To Reproduce

1. Create or use an existing Flutter project
2. Add freeRASP version 7.5.0 to pubspec.yaml
3. Run flutter pub get
4. Build the Android project (flutter build apk or run via Android Studio)

---

Gradle task assembleRelease failed with exit code 1

---

Expected behavior
The project should build successfully without requiring any additional manual dependency configuration in the Android module.

---

Actual behavior
The build fails due to missing ScreenProtector class reference in the plugin's native Android code.

---

Workaround
Downgrading to version 7.4.0 resolves the issue.

Please complete the following information:

• Device: Not device-specific (build-time issue)
• OS version: Windows 11
• Flutter version: 3.41.5
• freeRASP version: 7.5.0

---

Additional context
It appears that the ScreenProtector class might belong to a dependency that is not being transitively included anymore (possibly from Talsec SDK).

Manually adding a dependency such as:

implementation 'com.aheaditec.talsec.security:security-android:<version>'

might resolve the issue, according to chatgpt, still didn't tested yet, but this should not be required, right?

Hi @Adrianogba, thanks for reporting this!

I've investigated the issue thoroughly but haven't been able to reproduce the build failure locally. Both debug and release builds succeed with Flutter 3.41.5 and the published 7.5.0 package from pub.dev. What's even more interesting, we haven't changed any logic of ScreenProtector or its parts in TalsecThreatHandler.

1. Have you tried flutter clean after upgrading to 7.5.0? There could be some old caches causing a trouble.
2. Did you upgrade only freeRASP, or also something else (AGP version, compile version,...)
3. What compileSdk does your android/app/build.gradle use?

Looking forward to your response. This will help us pinpoint the cause and fix it.
