AttributeError when trying to access android.view.WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_STATUS

[chbeltz]

Here is the relevant part of my code:

def set_status_bar_colour(self):
    try:
        # Turn status bar green
        from jnius import autoclass
        from jnius.jnius import JavaException

        #try:
        LayoutParams = autoclass('android.view.WindowManager$LayoutParams')
        R = autoclass('android.R')
        activity = autoclass('org.kivy.android.PythonActivity').mActivity

        window = activity.getWindow()
        LayoutParams = window.getAttributes()
        window.clearFlags(LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_STATUS)
        window.addFlags(LayoutParams.FLAG_DRAWS_SYSTEM_BAR_BACKGROUNDS)
        window.setStatusBarColor(activity.getResources().getColor(R.color.holo_green_light))

       #except JavaException as ex:
            # Insufficient SDK version
            #pass

    except ImportError:
        # Not on Android
        pass

The full error I get is AttributeError: 'android.view.WindowManager$LayoutParams' object has no attribute 'FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_STATUS'. The relevant part of the adb logcat output can be found here.

If anyone is wondering why I'm using autoclass('android.view.WindowManager$LayoutParams') as opposed to autoclass('android.view.WindowManager.LayoutParams'): The second verison would also give me an AttributeError.

Any help is appreciated!
