HI, i am trying to add regular to our existing kotlin android app that uses dynamic feature modules and i am receiving this error below everytime i add the dependencies for this sdk.:

Task :app:processDebugMainManifest FAILED

/home/me/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:24:18-86 Error:
    Attribute application@appComponentFactory value=(androidx.core.app.CoreComponentFactory) from [androidx.core:core:1.5.0] AndroidManifest.xml:24:18-86
    is also present at [:features:myFeature] AndroidManifest.xml:50:9-82 value=(android.support.v4.app.CoreComponentFactory).
    Suggestion: add 'tools:replace="android:appComponentFactory"' to <application> element at AndroidManifest.xml:9:5-79:19 to override.

I tried adding the below as suggested by the error log below:

tools:replace="android:appComponentFactory"

/home/me/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:9:5-80:19 Error:
    tools:replace specified at line:9 for attribute android:appComponentFactory, but no new value specified
/home/me/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml Error:
    Validation failed, exiting

Hello @jonneymendoza! Looks like your project support AndroidX. But our SDK uses Support Libraries dependencies inside. Please, try to add the next option to your gradle.properties file:

android.enableJetifier

More information here: https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx

HI @DmitrySmolyakov, thanks for your response.

Do you know if there are any plans to use androidX ?

Hi @jonneymendoza, We have migrated our SDK to AndroidX starting from 6.3 version.
