aws dynamodb java sdk: cannot resolve symbol 'standard': AmazonDynamoDBClientBuilder.standard()

Question

Trying to use AWS DynamoDB Java API to create a AmazonDynamoDBClient object and get error

Following this example:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/CodeSamples.Java.html

Using AWS DynamoDB SDK (Java): full pom.xml below

Code:

AmazonDynamoDBClient dynamoDBclient = new AmazonDynamoDBClientBuilder.standard()
                .withRegion(Regions.US_WEST_2)
                .build();

Error:

Cannot resolve symbol 'standard'

I am using Java 8, the IntelliJ IDE and Maven for build tool

My pom.xml (all dependencies latest version):

import com.amazonaws.services.dynamodbv2.model.ConditionalCheckFailedException;
import com.amazonaws.services.dynamodbv2.AmazonDynamoDBClientBuilder;
import com.amazonaws.services.dynamodbv2.AmazonDynamoDBClient;

I had a similar problem with the S3 sdk that got resolved by updating all sdk versions to the latest in the dependencies Pom.xml. But now after those updates I get new errors about the DynamoDB call. — AHL

It should be AmazonDynamoDBClientBuilder.standard(), not new AmazonDynamoDBClientBuilder.standard(). Remove new keyword.
