Could not find tools.jar
See original GitHub issueHi,
I’m currently trying to run an Android project width React Native. However, when I try so, I get this error :
:react-native-vector-icons:compileReleaseJavaWithJavac FAILED
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':react-native-vector-icons:compileReleaseJavaWithJavac'.
> Could not find tools.jar
But I can’t see where it comes from…
Here’s my java version :
java version "1.8.0_73"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_73-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.73-b02, mixed mode)
Any ideas ?

You only need to integrate the java parts when you need to use the icons as PNGs and in most use cases you don’t.
Your error
Could not find tools.jaris most likely not connected to this library but your env setup, try googling it.I had same problem. My java path was wrong.
Previously i was using ‘/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/bin/java’
I changed to ‘~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/bin/java’
Now issue is solved for me.
