Can not access com.codename1.impl.android.AndroidNativeUtil From nativeInterface

Question

Can not access com.codename1.impl.android.AndroidNativeUtil From nativeInterface in codenameone as this structure is not available in the CodenameOne.jar. Do I need to import any other jar in classpath? Need to access the activity of codenameOne from the native interface by the below code:

private static Activity activity() {
    return com.codename1.impl.android.AndroidNativeUtil.getActivity();
}

But I am getting this error while deploying:

Compiling with JDK Java compiler API.

Notice that it will mark it as inaccessible in the IDE but when you send the builds to the servers it should work just fine.

This is mentioned in the native interfaces tutorial.
