I am migrating my Android project to Gradle 4.4 and Android Gradle plugin 3.1.2. It has a library module which depends on parceler library and defines its dependency as follows:
build.gradle of library module:
...
// parceler for serialization (https://github.com/johncarl81/parceler)
implementation "org.parceler:parceler-api:1.0.4"
annotationProcessor "org.parceler:parceler:1.0.4"
...
This seems to compile well and generates my aar file.
Further, my main app module also has a direct dependency on parceler module and contains above lines as dependencies in its build.gradle, along with above aar file.
build.gradle of main app module:
...
api(group: 'com.example.mylibrary', name: 'mylibrary', version: "1.0.7", ext: 'aar') {
transitive = true;
changing = true
}
// parceler for serialization (https://github.com/johncarl81/parceler)
implementation "org.parceler:parceler-api:1.0.4"
annotationProcessor "org.parceler:parceler:1.0.4"
...
Everything works until I try to generate my APK, which fails with the following error.
D8: Program type already present: org.parceler.Parceler$$Parcels$1
Task :MPCApp:transformDexArchiveWithDexMergerForRelease FAILED
When I expand my library project in Android studio, I see Parcels.class under org.parceler package. But it seems similar file is also generated by main app module under the same package which is causing the clash.
