i'm developing an android application that contain .jar file which company give it to me and it usage is for background Thread.
but when i add this jar to my project libs folder i get this error
Error:Gradle: Execution failed for task ':hc:preDexDebug'
.>com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Process 'command 'C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0\bin\java.exe'' finished with non-zero exit value 1**
i have searched this Error a lot i have seen these Q&A s:
Error: Gradle: execution failed for task ':app:preDexDebug'
Error:Execution failed for task ':app:dexDebug'. com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException
Android java.exe finished with non-zero exit value 1
why java.exe exit with value 1 in android studio
but none of them works for me .
this is my module gradle file :
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.1.1'
}
}
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
repositories {
jcenter()
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 22
buildToolsVersion "23.0.0 rc3"
defaultConfig {
applicationId "androidclient.hc"
minSdkVersion 9
targetSdkVersion 22
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
compileOptions {
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_6
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_6
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.2.1'
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.2.1'
}
NOTE:
1: when i remove the company .jar project works perfect with no error so i know cause is .jar of course
2: this jar does not build with gradle and it compiles with JDK8 (Which i used too)
3: i have tried deleting JDK and install it again and also i've checked for duplicate usage of .jar
4: i have used JDK8 & SDK 5.1 & intelliJ 14.1
this .jar is too important for project and i have to use it (No jar , no project) . well how can i solve this error ? should i tell company to compile their .jar with gradle or what ?
(if you think more info is needed for answer please tell me i will add it)
