Android build failed with device client v1.13.2

[jasmineymlo]

I can't use the new version 1.13.2 in android. (android API level : 19)。Only dependency this SDK。
At first,errMsg was

Annotation processors must be explicitly declared now. The following dependencies on the compile classpath are found to contain annotation processor. Please add them to the annotationProcessor configuration.
- log4j-core-2.11.0.jar (org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core:2.11.0)
Alternatively, set android.defaultConfig.javaCompileOptions.annotationProcessorOptions.includeCompileClasspath = true to continue with previous behavior. Note that this option is deprecated and will be removed in the future.
See https://developer.android.com/r/tools/annotation-processor-error-message.html for more details.
after I add this StatementjavaCompileOptions.annotationProcessorOptions.includeCompileClasspath = true,errMsg became

Why log4j-api-2.11.0.jar process fail in android?

[jasmineymlo]

Seems like the recent upgrade of log4j dependency v1.2.17 to 2.11.0 has broken Android build.

[JMayrbaeurl]

I'm no Android expert, but did you try to do the build with the guidance in the error message:

Annotation processors must be explicitly declared now

as mentioned at https://developer.android.com/r/tools/annotation-processor-error-message.html

[JMayrbaeurl]

I've tried to build it with Android Studio and using explicit annotation processor for log4j-core 2.11.0 now, but it fails with other errors, too. For log4j-api it reports

Illegal class file: Class module-info is missing a super type.
Message{kind=ERROR, text=Illegal class file: Class module-info is missing a super type., sources=[C:\Users\jurgenma\.gradle\caches\modules-2\files-2.1\org.apache.logging.log4j\log4j-api\2.11.0\bede79a3f150711634a3047985517431bf6499f2\log4j-api-2.11.0.jar], tool name=Optional.of(D8)}

[JMayrbaeurl]

After some more tests with AndroidStudio I can share the following insights:

• The Android sample on the master branch is still using a very old version of the Device Client SDK:
  com.microsoft.azure.sdk.iot:iot-device-client:1.5.37
• Replacing it with com.microsoft.azure.sdk.iot:iot-device-client:1.13.1 (the version before we introduced the upgrade to log4j2) doesn't compile with an 'Unable to execute dex: method ID not in [0, 0xffff]: 65536' error message
  
• According to the Android Developer docu the build has to be set to multi dex usage
  
• After changing the minSdkVersion from 19 to 21 and adding 'multiDexEnabled true' to the default config of the module I was able to successfully build the sample again
• Using a version greater than 1.13.1 of the Device Client SDK doesn't compile with other errors

The modules build.gradle file for a successfull build with 1.13.1:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 27
    buildToolsVersion '27.0.1'

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.iothub.azure.microsoft.com.androidsample"
        minSdkVersion 21
        targetSdkVersion 27
        multiDexEnabled true
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }

    packagingOptions {
        exclude "META-INF/MSFTSIG.SF"
        exclude "META-INF/MSFTSIG.RSA"
        exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES'
        exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
        exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
        exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
        exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE.txt'
        exclude 'thirdpartynotice.txt'
    }
}

dependencies {
    // app dependencies
    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.0.1'

    // testing dependencies
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
}

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    // Remote binary dependency
    compile 'com.microsoft.azure.sdk.iot:iot-device-client:1.13.1'
}

I'll try to find a working setup for 1.13.2 and 1.13.3, too, and will test with the new logging facade setup using slf4j as well.

Some more insights on usage of log4j2 with AndroidStudio. When using a version of 1.13.2 of the Device Client SDK with AndroidStudio 3.x you will get the following Java compile error:
Caused by: com.android.builder.dexing.DexArchiveBuilderException: Failed to process C:\Users\jurgenma\.gradle\caches\modules-2\files-2.1\org.apache.logging.log4j\log4j-api\2.11.0\bede79a3f150711634a3047985517431bf6499f2\log4j-api-2.11.0.jar and Caused by: com.android.dx.cf.iface.ParseException: unsupported class file version 53.0

Unfortunately this is a known Android Studio 3.x bug described here . Android Studio has no Java 9 support yet, but parses Java 9 classes that are included in log4j2 jar files (in the META-INF directory).

There's no known workaround available for this (at least I could not find one) and wasn't fixed by the Devs of Android studio since end of last year.

[JMayrbaeurl]

As described in #319, next version of the Azure IoT Device SDK 1.13.4 will be usable with Android Studio 3.x w/o problems again, at least if your minimum SDK version is not smaller than 21.

[youmingzeng]

@JMayrbaeurl Thanks。By the way,Multi Dex has compatibility package which can support api 19.

implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'

[jasmineymlo]

Thanks @JMayrbaeurl for the PR that fixes it in SDK v1.14.0.
