Android doesn't build with latest alpha update

Bugs
#1

Hey guys,

I just updated to the latest alpha build
Editor SHA1: a768c3dcce54b947c3c13575991e056bd8ffb711
Engine SHA1: 67b68f1e1ac26a3385fb511cdce520fe52387bb0
Build time: 2019-06-17T12:33:05.227999

But now I can’t build to Android 32-bit, debug. I’m getting this in the console:

Failed building Android resources to R.java: 

C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Temp\bob_bundle_tmp15285865350688366659\res\values\values.xml:50: error: Attribute "fontProviderAuthority" has already been defined

Is there a way I can get the previous build? Or even the stable build of Defold? All the links seem to link to alpha builds without the option to download the stable one. I tried downloading from d.defold.com and from the dashboard too.

Are you using any extensions?

#3

Oh, it seems to be somehow related to the admob extension. If I remove it, it bundles it correctly.
I followed all the instructions (even the updated ones).
Is there a reason this is happening now? It was working before.

#4

Not sure. When did it work last? @sergey.lerg has made a few updates to the extension recently I think.

#5

It has worked until the June 11 commits for sure. I had noticed the changes on June 14 the day it came out, and saw how the README installation of the extension changed so I followed the new instructions, namely not needing to manually download the extension due to a previous Android Resource bug. I don’t fully remember if the bundling worked that day, but I think it did.

#6

Can you try the old version again to confirm that that version still works?

#7

Confirmed to be working on the June 14th commit! Something about the google services update breaks it. I double-checked it with the latest version and it still gives me the error.

#8

Can you please try the latest on master: https://github.com/Lerg/extension-admob

If I clone that project, open it and bundle for Android it works as expected.

#9

What dependency are you using? Master?
If so it will change each time a new commit happens to that So check there for any changes.

Sorry, updates for google play services proved to be problematic. I am trying to get rid of such errors but using new aaptExcludeResourceDirs directive in ext.manifest, but can’t get it to work yet.
Please use an older version for now.

@britzl @Mathias_Westerdahl would be cool if Editor could show a message with recently updated extensions and a link to release notes or something.

Perhaps this is a quick win for @markus.gustavsson or @mats.gisselson to play with?

#12

Do you have other extensions in your project?

#13

Yes, I do. Besides your extension, I have PlayFab, GameAnalytics, RichText, DefString, and DefTable.

#14

I believe this is the only one containing native code.
