I'm using Paho MQTT library in my AndroidX application. I'm getting exception NoClassDefFoundError for Landroid/support/v4/content/LocalBroadcastManager. I found that library uses depricated import:

import android.support.v4.content.LocalBroadcastManager;

Function that rises exception:

private void registerReceiver(BroadcastReceiver receiver) {
    IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter();
            filter.addAction(MqttServiceConstants.CALLBACK_TO_ACTIVITY);
            LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(myContext).registerReceiver(receiver, filter);
            receiverRegistered = true;
}

How to solve this problem? Should I download source and recompile library? Why it is not already done in latest release?

Whole exception:

E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main
    Process: com.eurbon.pahomqttclientexample, PID: 17368

After migrating a project to AndroidX, I don't think you can use android.support.v* anymore. What if you try and use the content support library from androidx.core and not android.support.v4; I think that will resolve the issue for you.

import androidx.core.content.LocalBroadcastManager;

If you're using Android Studio the intellisense should be pretty helpful in resolving other dependency issues and/or other errors/warnings due to the AndroidX migration and the suggested change to support library providers.
