Android Studio新活动模板添加使用Kotlin DSL时已在gradle文件中定义的相同依赖项？

Question

When I use new empty activity template android studio it auto adds two line dependencies in my app build.gradle.kts and resync the project.

implementation(Config.Libs.appCompat)
implementation(Config.Libs.constraintLayout)

implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.0.0-alpha1'
implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:1.1.2'

Seems like android studio cannot detect defined dependencies when use with Kotlin DSL. Anyone know how to slove this?

Answer 1

Yes, now you should manually remove unnecessary dependencies from your .gradle files, moreover you store your project dependencies in support files outside the .gradle files so the Android Studio's system cannot recognize the fact that dependencies have already added in the project.

Maybe in future it'll be added in IDE but now you should manage your dependencies' files by yourself.

Happy coding!
