Migrating to AndroidX - android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS location

I am in the middle of migrating a project to AndroidX and I am blocked with an issue.



<provider
android:name="androidx.core.content.FileProvider" <--- Changed to X lib
android:authorities="${applicationId}.fileprovider"
android:exported="false"
android:grantUriPermissions="true">
<meta-data
android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS" <---- ISSUE
android:resource="@xml/file_paths" />
</provider>


I searched all the Internet and couldn't find a solution for this: what should I add instead of android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS for AndroidX?

    It looks to be still the same – android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/support/+/…. What problems are you having?

    You are right. I had no issue, but I wanted to be sure that this won't crash at some point and because I saw the "support" keyword there, I thought that Android Studio didn't do the migration right (for example, for the android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationView it didn't work. I had to do it manually.) Thanks for the answer!
