Android, Gradle and duplicate files error during packaging
Andrej van der Zee
I want to use the json-schema-validator in my Android project like this:
dependencies {
compile 'com.github.fge:json-schema-validator:2.1.8'
}
Unfortunately Gradle stops packaging due to this file duplicate error:
Path in archive: draftv3/schema
Origin 1: /Users/andrej/.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/com.github.fge/json-schema-validator/2.1.8/4c2a5be8ce86c2338561a651d7d22fb4c4a8763d/json-schema-validator-2.1.8.jar
Origin 2: /Users/andrej/.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/com.github.fge/json-schema-core/1.1.9/4ead9ba3fb3bde69d93f738042d12a9e60e41645/json-schema-core-1.1.9.jar
I know I can ignore the file like this:
packagingOptions {
exclude 'draftv3/schema'
}
But the file is used by json-schema-validator and json-validator-core, so it is required in the resulting APK.
How can I force Gradle to proceed packaging while keeping one of the two versions of this file (they are equal)?
Thanks,
Andrej
