Latest Android version doesn't work with playservices 16.1.3

Hi @perdona,

Checking it.

@perdona,

Could you please provide a bit more details on the issue? Can you build the app and it crashes (or something else happens), or does the build process fail? Can you provide us with a device console log/build log describing the issue better?

[perdona]

app crashes with following log:

using latest ti.playservices and latest module. I had to downgrade ti.playservices in order to make it work.

[phobeous]

Same issue here. PW module depends on ti.playservices module. We've upgraded our project to use Titanium SDK 8.0.2.GA, which upgrades global ti.playservices module to 16.1.3. The workaround is to explicitly include ti.playservices module in tiapp.xml forcing version 16.1.2.

@perdona, @phobeous,

Do you use play-services-measurement-api library (16.3.0 version or higher) in your project?

[phobeous]

We use other modules that depend on ti.playservices (ti.map). I've realized that if any module include ti.playservices, build process build add the latest version (16.1.3) that is what comes with Ti SDK 8. So, if you need any other version (as is the case for PW module) we have to explicitly add it in our tiapp.xml, so that build process includes it first and bypass later timodule.xml dependencies.

So, in summary, PW module is not compatible with Titanium SDK 8 because default ti.playservices version module is 16.1.3 and it crashes app. It's necessary to force ti.playservices 16.1.2 in your tiapp.xml. I don't know what happens if any other module depends on ti.playservices 16.1.3

@phobeous, @perdona,

Fixed with the latest release.
