Build fail with Android Studio 3.0

[IvanBean]

Hi, I encounter an error unknown element <library> found when compiling this library with Android Studio 3.0 released today and gradle 3.0.0. Screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/qcy5e

Dependencies as below, only default implementation and face 1.3.0.

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    implementation"org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jre7:$kotlin_version"
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.1.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.2'
    implementation 'com.android.support:design:26.1.0'
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.1'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.1'

    implementation 'com.microsoft.projectoxford:face:1.3.0'
}

Any reply will be appreciated. Thanks!

It sounds like a back-compatibility problem of Android Studio. We will keep this issue open until problem solved. Thanks for your reporting.

[IvanBean]

Hi huxuan,

Thanks for the reply.

After some research I found document mention gradle 3.0.0 will throw an error instead of ignoring the unknown tag, maybe we can fix this by removing the <library> tag in ClientLibrary's Androidmanifest. Here's another library fix this issue before by removing it.

Thanks!

Hi @IvanBean,

Thanks for prompt response and the valuable information. We will look into it and come back with actual actions.

Bests, Sean.

I faced the same issue. Is there a temporary solution for this to work?

[huxuan]

Hi @IvanBean @mgjo5899, so you guys are trying to build and run the Android Sample? If that is the case, you do not need any code changes, just run it. The README may be a little misleading, we will consider to change that in the next release. Another kind reminder is that we should never add com.microsoft.projectoxford in ClientLibrary's dependencies. Just run the sample as it is.

[IvanBean]

Hi @huxuan, I think the main reason is Gradle 3.0.0 don't accept <library> tag, if we run the Android Sample with Gradle 2.3.x then it works fine, but with Gradle 3.0.0 I had tried Android Sample, our current project, and new empty project, the results are the same as first post's screenshot.

Hi @mgjo5899, for now, I downgrade Gradle to 2.3.3 to keep project compilable.

Thanks!

[JunjieCheng]

I got the same issue in my App, but the sample works fine.

[huxuan]

Hi everybody, thanks for your report and effort.

Currently, @IvanBean 's solution should be a temporarily fix.

We are already in a cycle of new release. We will ensure the new released version works fine with latest Android Studio and Gradle. Please be a little patient as there is no promise on the exact release date.

I will keep this issue open until the new version is finally public released.

Hi everybody, I was having the same issue with Android Studio 3.0.1 and Gradle version 4.1. I tried downgrading Gradle to lower versions, like 2.3.3 and others. But, it led to other compatibility problems. I went on fixing each problem one-by-one, resulting in a really messed up Gradle configuration with no success. Finally, I reverted all my changes and added the line android.enableAapt2=false to the gradle.properties file so as to avoid using aapt2 as it has become more restrictive. This might be a temporary solution for those who want to use this API till the issue is not fixed.

[huxuan]

The SDK and Sample should support Android Studio 3.0.1 and Gradle version 4.1 now.

Close this issue and feel free to create a new one if you have any concern.

[ptedeschi]

Still happening on Android Studio 3.1.1 with Gradle 4.4

implementation 'com.microsoft.projectoxford:face:1.4.1' error: unknown element found

[vernazza]

You have to add android.enableAapt2=false in your gradle properties.

This will disable aapt2; to avoid that I forked the repository just to remove the unused element that is present in the manifest

[huxuan]

Hi Buddies, I think enableAapt2 is set to false in current latest code base as a temporarily solution. If you guys have any better proposal, any instructions or even pull requests are welcome!

[ptedeschi]

Adding android.enableAapt2=false causes java.util.NoSuchElementException

Hello, instead of disabling aapt2, I think simply remove <library> tag can fix this. Thanks to @vernazza who already done it as PR #34.

[huxuan]

Cool. Thanks for you guys' efforts! I have merged the pull request and will update the package release soon.

[huxuan]

Version 1.4.2 is released by fixing those issues. Thanks for your guys' efforts,

[huxuan]

Hi Sunny, SpeakerRecognition belongs to a different team from us. But since the Android SDK is open source, you can just refer to the changes in Face SDK here and apply it to SpeakerRecognition by yourself. Just let me know if you need any further help.

[Sunny-NEU]

@huxuan Thank you very much. I just tried to delete the library element in the AndroidMainfest of ClientLibrary and rebuild it. it seems work fine. I appreciate guys' solutions, and your team is great compared to the other team.Thanks again!
