Using SimpleXML with Android and Gradle

Question

I\'m having troubles trying to compile an Android application with Gradle 0.5.+ and Android Studio, using SimpleXML.

This is the error:

Gradle: Execution         


        

Answer 1

Try this if previous solution doesn't work:

configurations {
    compile.exclude module: 'stax'
    compile.exclude module: 'stax-api'
    compile.exclude module: 'xpp3'
}
dependencies {
    [...]
    compile 'org.simpleframework:simple-xml:2.7.+'
}
repositories {
    [...]
    mavenCentral()
}

Answer 2

I think you need to exclude some of dependencies.

compile('org.simpleframework:simple-xml:2.7.+'){
    exclude module: 'stax'
    exclude module: 'xpp3'
}

Answer 3

I am getting the same error while using SimpleFramework. Actually i resolved it by adding these lines in build.gradle:

compile('org.simpleframework:simple-xml:2.7.1') 
{
   exclude group: 'stax', module: 'stax-api'
   exclude group: 'xpp3', module: 'xpp3'<br>
}

Answer 4

You need to also exclude stax-API.

implementation('org.simpleframework:simple-xml:2.7.+'){
    exclude module: 'stax'
    exclude module: 'stax-api'
    exclude module: 'xpp3'
}
