getting multidex error after upgrad org.jitsi.react:jitsi-meet-sdk:3.4.0

[kaustavhazra]

org.jitsi.react:jitsi-meet-sdk:2.4.0 is working fine but org.jitsi.react:jitsi-meet-sdk:3.4.0 getting error at the time of build the app already i have used multiDexEnabled true also implementation 'androidx.multidex:multidex:2.0.1'. But can't solve this issue. Please help me to figure out the problem.

[pycproductions]

I'm facing the same issue. Did you manage to solve it ?

[hanifmhd]

any solution about this?

[Brumor]

So the RNDeviceInfo, I solved by adding the exclude:

implementation(project(':react-native-jitsi-meet')) {
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react', module:'react-native-device-info'
    }

but now it's complaining about the async storage even though I have that one excluded too already, if someone finds something please let me know

[MarinaAmy]

Donc, le RNDeviceInfo, j'ai résolu en ajoutant l'exclure :

implementation(project(':react-native-jitsi-meet')) {
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react', module:'react-native-device-info'
    }

mais maintenant il se plaint du stockage asynchrone même si je l'ai déjà exclu aussi, si quelqu'un trouve quelque chose, veuillez me le faire savoir

=> exclude group: 'com.facebook.react',module:'react-native-async-storage'

[Brumor]

Yes, so in the end the android/app/build.gradle of my project looked like:

implementation(project(':react-native-jitsi-meet')) {
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react',module:'react-native-vector-icons'
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react',module:'react-native-svg'
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react',module:'react-native-webview'
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react',module:'react-native-community_netinfo'
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react',module:'react-native-webrtc'
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react',module:'react-native-community-async-storage'
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react',module:'react-native-async-storage'
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react',module:'react-native-splash-screen'
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react', module:'react-native-device-info'
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react',module:'react-native-video'
 }

Notice that for some reason two different versions of the async storage are present in the jitsi maven, which is what cause a lot of confusion

Donc, le RNDeviceInfo, j'ai résolu en ajoutant l'exclure :

implementation(project(':react-native-jitsi-meet')) {
      exclude group: 'com.facebook.react', module:'react-native-device-info'
    }

mais maintenant il se plaint du stockage asynchrone même si je l'ai déjà exclu aussi, si quelqu'un trouve quelque chose, veuillez me le faire savoir

=> exclude group: 'com.facebook.react',module:'react-native-async-storage'

I was facing the duplicate_classes issue while creating release APK by this @react-native-async-storage/async-storage specific package and able to fix it by adding

dependencies {
    ...
    implementation(project(':react-native-jitsi-meet')) {
        ...
        exclude group: 'com.facebook.react', module:'react-native-async-storage'
        ...
    }
    ...
}

this in android/app/build.gradle this file.
