Integrating a commercial or closed-source SDK into a HarmonyOS NEXT application often halts abruptly at the build phase. You configure your dependencies, trigger the Hvigor build pipeline, and the compilation immediately fails with a strict "Bytecode HARs Not Supported" error. This specific HarmonyOS NEXT build error is a hard blocker for integration engineers. It occurs because the build system cannot resolve the pre-compiled ArkTS bytecode inside the imported module using legacy path resolution. The immediate culprit is a configuration mismatch: the useNormalizedOHMUrl flag is either missing or set to false in your project build settings. Here is the technical breakdown of why this happens and how to resolve it permanently. Understanding the Root Cause: Why Bytecode HARs Fail In the HarmonyOS ecosystem, a Harmony Archive (HAR) is a static shared library. Historically, HARs distributed source code directly. However, to protect intellectual property, enter...
