Android Manifest conflict

jcdoster commented 3 years ago

Please fill out as much known and relevant information as possible.

Version Information:

GeoPackage Android Version: 4.0.0
GeoPackage Android Source: Central Repository
Device or Emulator: S20
Android Studio Version: 4.1.2
Android Version Number: 10
Android SDK Version: 29
Platform & OS: Linux 20.04
Other Relevant Libraries:

Expected Results:

Add geopackage-android dependency to gradle, have it compile correctly for an ATAK plugin app. implementation 'mil.nga.geopackage:geopackage-android:4.0.0'

Observed Results:

What happened instead? During build, manifest conflict between libraries within repository and ATAK plugin app. Specifically geopackage-android-4.0.0.aar & sqlite-android-3320300.aar have manifest application callouts that need to be deleted to de-conflict with app the repository is intended to support.
How often does this occur? Every compilation attempt.

Output:

Any logs, errors, or output messages?

Appcompat (androidx.appcompat:appcompat) is a required dependency for this library to build and can not be removed. The SQLite Android Archive file is provided by SQLite and does not have that dependency.

Manifest Merging should be handled by the utilizing library or application. The best option would be to migrate to AndroidX. The other option is to resolve it through the error message suggestion. Suggestion: add 'tools:replace="android:appComponentFactory"' to element at AndroidManifest.xml:20:5-50:19 to override. For example, an allowBackup value specified in the SQLite manifest is replaced in this project.

Thanks Brian.

I was able to get it to compile. Thank you for those suggestions!

I have another challenge now with the basic methods in geopackage-android. It's a bit complicated to explain over email. But if you would be OK with a phone conversation, much obliged.

I am working directly with a special ops homegrown application called ATAK. I have been working with it for some time now. And I would like to discuss how to get the methods in geopackage-android specially to work with ATAK (challenges specifically with the creation of the manager using the ATAK context) or go back to geopackage-java, which is what I was doing before. I can find no version of sqlitejdbc.so that is 64-bit compatible to Android though unfortunately, arm64-v8a.

When this is done, and I'm somehow successful, I'll write something up on GitHub for others working with ATAK and Geopackage manipulation.

Thx! Jason
