Adding HAPI-FHIR dependencies into gradle Android project

Question

I am trying to add following dependencies into my android studio project, but it seems something goes wrong which I don't understand!

compile 'ca.uhn.hapi.fhir:hapi-fhir-base:1.4'
compile 'ca.uhn.hapi.fhir:hapi-fhir-structures-hl7org-dstu2:1.4'
compile 'ca.uhn.hapi.fhir:hapi-fhir-validation-resources-dstu2:1.4'
compile 'org.slf4j:slf4j-simple:1.6.1'

and this is the error:

    Information:Gradle tasks [:app:assembleDebug]
Warning:Dependency org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.5.1 is ignored for debug as it may be conflicting with the internal version provided by Android.
         In case of problem, please repackage it with jarjar to change the class packages

in fact , before adding those dependencies everything worked fine without error. do you know what is the problem?! Thank you in advance for your helps!

This might not be helpful but maybe try cleaning project and rebuilding? — aquaflamingo, Jun 12 '16 at 16:06
@RobertSimoes I did clean the project , but it doesn't work! — Jasmine, Jun 12 '16 at 16:08
Go to your build.gradle and check your "minifyEnabled" value? Is it true or false? I need this information to solve your problem. — Aritra Roy, Jun 12 '16 at 16:09
You need to exclude both javax.json and org.apache.httpcomponents from your dependencies — OneCricketeer, Jun 12 '16 at 16:17
Why aren't you using the Android dependency? http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/ca.uhn.hapi.fhir/hapi-fhir-android — OneCricketeer, Jun 12 '16 at 16:21
I'm not sure exactly how you should write it, but first check that last link, otherwise look at "Exclude Transitive Dependency by Dependency" here http://www.concretepage.com/build-tools/gradle/gradle-exclude-transitive-dependency-example — OneCricketeer, Jun 12 '16 at 16:33
@cricket_007 I tried that link , using gradle tab, and copied them, but still I face the error. Noe let me check the exclude solution. — Jasmine, Jun 12 '16 at 16:38
@Jasmine try this dependencies { compile 'ca.uhn.hapi.fhir:hapi-fhir-base:1.5' compile 'ca.uhn.hapi.fhir:hapi-fhir-structures-hl7org-dstu2:1.5' compile 'ca.uhn.hapi.fhir:hapi-fhir-validation-resources-dstu2:1.5' compile 'org.slf4j:slf4j-simple:1.7.21' } — Muhammad Waleed, Jun 12 '16 at 20:14
@cricket_007 I excluded those dependencies you've told, but I faced another error! Error:Execution failed for task ':app:transformClassesWithDexForDebug'. > com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException: com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Process 'command '/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_71.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java'' finished with non-zero exit value 1 — Jasmine, Jun 14 '16 at 11:57
That error literally tells me nothing other than gradle has not successfully built your project. The actual reason for that exception is located in the full gradle output — OneCricketeer, Jun 14 '16 at 15:25
And I didn't tell you which dependencies to exclude. I only sent you a link of how to write an exclude statement in Gradle. The library that you need to exclude is `javax.json.*` — OneCricketeer, Jun 14 '16 at 15:27

Finally I could solve the problem. cleaning and rebuilding project were not the solutions! I didn't add dependencies through writing codes in Gradle. in fact I downloaded Jar libraries from the following link: http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/ca.uhn.hapi.fhir/hapi-fhir-android/1.5

I downloaded three libraries which I needed:

hapi-fhir-structures-dstu2-1.5.jar , hapi-fhir-base-1.5.jar , hapi-fhir-android-1.5.jar

then I moved them to "lib" folder of the app -> sync the gradle
