Android Question Uncaught translation error: already added: Lcom/google/android/gms/common/util/VisibleForTesting

Hi,

I'm trying to update my project to use Firebase Messaging. I'm using B4A 9.00 and Firebase Notifications 1.21, and targeting API 28. I've managed to overcome a 'no virtual method subscribetotopic' issue, and I'm now targeting API 28 not 27 after getting 'ERROR: In <declare-styleable> FontFamilyFont, unable to find attribute android:fontVariationSettings' error on compile. I'm now getting this error now that I'm targeting API 28.

B4A Version: 9.00

Uncaught translation error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: already added: Lcom/google/android/gms/common/util/VisibleForTesting;

Can anybody advise on what I'm doing wrong? I've looked for duplicate jars but cannot find any although that apparently is the cause. Some pointers would be really helpful.

Thanks all,

Richard

Create a new project with the same list of libraries. Do you get this error? Which libraries are referenced? Try to remove some until the error disappears.

Analytics v2.01 is clashing with FirebaseNotifications v.121, if I remove one or the other it compiles but I need them both. What's the solution, if any?

I've converted it to use FirebaseAnalytics rather than the Analyics library and that solved the issue. Thanks!
