Android Studio + Gradle: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

问题

I have my project with Gradle and declare my dependencies on build.gradle:

dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:18.0.0'
compile 'org.springframework.android:spring-android-rest-template:1.0.1.RELEASE'
compile 'org.springframework.android:spring-android-auth:1.0.1.RELEASE'
compile 'org.springframework.android:spring-android-core:1.0.1.RELEASE'
compile 'org.roboguice:roboguice:2.0'

}

Build with Gradle work fine, but when a run my project a following error is throw on compilation phase:

Gradle: UNEXPECTED TOP-LEVEL EXCEPTION:
Gradle: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: already added: Lorg/springframework/util/FileCopyUtils;
Gradle: at com.android.dx.dex.file.ClassDefsSection.add(ClassDefsSection.java:122)
Gradle: at com.android.dx.dex.file.DexFile.add(DexFile.java:161)

I use Gradle 1.8.

回答1:

It looks like multiple libraries are including the core library files; I get a slightly different exception when I make a sample case, but it's the same cause. If I open up the External Libraries tab to look at what jars it's using, I see spring-android-core and spring-core, and if I open those up to see what classes are in them, I see that both contain org.springframework.core.ErrorCoded (which is the duplicate class in my test case).

You're not including spring-core directly; it's coming in as a transitive dependency from the spring-android-auth library (if I include just those two libraries and omit spring-android-rest-template I still get the error). I tried digging through the pom file definitions in Maven Central to try to prove why it's happening, but I'm not sure I could give you an explanation that didn't have a lot of holes in it, so I'll stay quiet on that front ;-) But I won't lack of understanding get in the way of trying to fix the problem. If you tell the spring-android-auth dependency to exclude spring-core, it does the trick:

dependencies {
    ...
    compile 'org.springframework.android:spring-android-rest-template:1.0.1.RELEASE'
    compile('org.springframework.android:spring-android-auth:1.0.1.RELEASE') {
        exclude module: 'spring-core'
    }
    compile 'org.springframework.android:spring-android-core:1.0.1.RELEASE'
}

I also came across this error:

Execution failed for task ':app:packageDebug'.
> Duplicate files copied in APK META-INF/notice.txt
File 1: /Users/sbarta/.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/org.springframework.android/spring-android-auth/1.0.1.RELEASE/f43faebbf90aef324979a81a4f5eee1e3b95191f/spring-android-auth-1.0.1.RELEASE.jar
File 2: /Users/sbarta/.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/org.springframework.android/spring-android-auth/1.0.1.RELEASE/f43faebbf90aef324979a81a4f5eee1e3b95191f/spring-android-auth-1.0.1.RELEASE.jar

so I had to follow the instructions at Android Gradle plugin 0.7.0: "duplicate files during packaging of APK" to exclude some META-INF/ files from packaging, and I added:

android {
    ...
    packagingOptions {
        exclude 'META-INF/notice.txt'
        exclude 'META-INF/license.txt'
    }
}

回答2:

Scott Barta's answer is exactly correct. Here is another way to globally exclude certain Spring modules in your build.gradle. As with any solution that has global effects, it should be used with caution.

configurations.compile {
    exclude module: 'spring-core'
    exclude module: 'spring-web'
    exclude module: 'commons-logging'
}
