依赖关系是最新的，但Gradle认为不是

Question

Why does Gradle give this error about dependencies when I have used the latest and same version? This has only just started today and I'm lost as to how to fix this:

All com.android.support libraries must use the exact same version specification (mixing versions can lead to runtime crashes). Found versions 28.0.0, 26.1.0. Examples include com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable:28.0.0 and com.android.support:support-media-compat:26.1.0

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.2'
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable-v7:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support:support-media-compat-v7:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:15.0.1'
}

Answer 1

Maybe this is because support library version 28 hasn't any library that call it

implementation 'com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable-v7:28.0.0'

or

implementation 'com.android.support:support-media-compat-v7:28.0.0'

Or Maybe this is because you are using support library version 28, but targetSdkVersion is lower than version 28.

(in Android Studio v:3.1.4)If you would like to add another library to your project, use the following URL

(from toolbar) file \ Project Structure ... \ (from left window : under modules) app \ Dependencies \ (use green plus)

This work for me : Add this lines in build.gradle (Project Gradle)

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 28
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "your project"
        minSdkVersion 14
        targetSdkVersion 28
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
    buildToolsVersion '28.0.3'
}

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
    implementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    implementation 'com.android.support:support-v13:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.2'
    implementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-contrib:3.0.2'
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:15.0.1'
    implementation 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support:mediarouter-v7:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:2.0.0-alpha2'
    implementation 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support:support-annotations:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0'
}

Answer 2

Doing ./gradlew app:dependencies on the terminal will show the different dependenices with their versions. To fix this easily, just add the dependency which has old and not has the same version (as the other related) dependencies in your Build.gradle .

If you hold on the error , it will show which dependency is old and then you can see the differences between the versions.

As an example, if you add this as the newest version like the other related dependencies, it will be fixed:

implementation 'com.android.support:support-media-compat:28.0.0' // just like the other related dependencies versions.

In your case, one of them is using 26.1.0 version:

Found versions 28.0.0, 26.1.0

Answer 3

one could also exclude version 26.1.0 from a dependency, but here's how to enforce 28.0.0 :

configurations.all() {
    resolutionStrategy.force "com.android.support:support-media-compat:28.0.0"
}

this might be coming from:

implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:15.0.1"
implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:15.0.1"

run ./gradlew app:dependencies from the project's root directory to see where it comes from.
