How do you correctly create an Android Library Module Imported from an AAR in Android Studio?

Are Android Module Libraries for AAR's broken?
Ever since I upgraded our builds to use 3.1.2 of the Android Gradle Plugin, I'm getting this problem where the build is unable to find build versions in the The AAR includes jniLibs/ and jars in the libs/ folders. This used to work prior to the Android Gradle 3.1.2 plugin. I'm just going to call the aar "library.aar":

Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.io.IOException: Failed to find byte code for "class in jar file in the libs folder of the AAR"
The task that fails is transformClassesWithInstantRunForDebug. When I disable instant run, I get a problem where my apps don't run at runtime since it can't find my jniLibs/ folder where the plugin is unable to find bytecode for some java classes that are bundled as part of one of the jars in the in the libs/ folder.
However, if I add the aar to the app's libs folder by adding the following line to my app's build.gradle, my app compiles and runs fine! implementation fileTree(include: ['*.jar', '*.aar'], dir: 'libs')
I even tried importing the library as a gradle library module, which automatically generated this build.gradle:
configurations.maybeCreate("default")
artifacts.add("default", file('library.aar'))
My aar is built using these build.gradle args:
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
android {
compileSdkVersion versions.android.sdk
buildToolsVersion versions.android.buildTools
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion versions.android.minSdk
targetSdkVersion versions.android.sdk
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}
dependencies {
api fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
implementation libraries.android
testImplementation "junit:junit:$versions.junit"
}
Anybody with the same issue? I don't know what's going on here...

So I've answered my own question, but probably not in the way most people would have expected.
Full details are here: https://www.reddit.com/r/androiddev/comments/9rlimj/android_library_dependency_management/e8i0qq2/?context=3
tl;dr we are consuming our AAR by file, not as a gradle library project

Return code 1 for dex process when compile in release

I am porting an old eclipse based Android project to Android Studio (3.0.1).
when I use the IDE to compile in debug, everything is ok, and the projects compiles and work in my device successful.
However when I try to compile in release with the following command the project didn't compile:

Someone has some tip or suggestion about what can be causing this issue?
Update 1:
In one of the projects there are some aidl files, and we can note that when we try:
gradlew assembleDebug
the project compile normally.
But when we try:
gradlew assembleRelease
We can see that all classes were generated in release folder, the same classes that are generated in debug, but, of course in debug folder, and these classes are not found:
class not found

There are many reasons will show "Return code 1 for dex process".
It's basically saying there is something wrong with your settings
(which is like saying nothing) .
Here are some possible solutions.
Try to clean or rebuild your project.
You have over 64k methods - see here for enabling multi dex
Some of your libraries conflict. Check the version of your libraries in .gradle file if there are in a group (like com.google.*)
Since you are setting minifyEnabled = false in release, it can be the second point.

Error: Duplicate zip entry [43.jar:org/apache/http/annotation/NotThreadSafe.class]

Problem:
Error after upgrading to Android Studio 3 : Error:java.io.IOException: Duplicate zip entry [43.jar:org/apache/http/annotation/NotThreadSafe.class]
Would appreciate some help in figuring out the issue. Seems related to apache library or something, not sure what it is about the annotation. This setup was working fine on Android 2.3, since I updated am getting this error and its been hours trying to fix the issue. I've enabled multidex support and all that but seems like this requires a more specific fix. Cheers
just updated to androidStudio3. Unfortunately when I run the build I get the following 4 errors:

Fixed the problem by removing
jackOptions {
enabled true
}
and adding
android.compileOptions.sourceCompatibility 1.8
android.compileOptions.targetCompatibility 1.8
Also, removed all the apache locally imported jars and replaced with these instead:
compile 'commons-codec:commons-codec:1.10'
compile 'org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:3.6'
compile 'commons-io:commons-io:2.6'
compile('org.apache.httpcomponents:httpmime:4.3.6') {
exclude module: 'httpclient'
}
Cleaned and rebuilt the project and now thankfully works as expected.

How to get Glide to work with Android Studio 3.0?

Since upgrading to Android Studio 3.0, I've had trouble getting 'AppGlideModule' to be recognized. Android Studio doesn't recognize the import
import com.bumptech.glide.module.AppGlideModule;
see here
I have tried updating 'compile' to 'implementation'. I have also tried cleaning and rebuilding the projects, as well as invalidating caches/restarting.
build.gradle (module:app)
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {
compileSdkVersion 26
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.example.test"
minSdkVersion 15
targetSdkVersion 26
buildToolsVersion "26.0.2"
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}
dependencies {
implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.1.0'
implementation 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:26.1.0'
implementation 'com.android.support:design:26.1.0'
implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.2'
testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.1'
androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.1'
implementation 'com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:3.9.0'
implementation 'com.github.bumptech.glide:annotations:4.2.0'
annotationProcessor 'com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:4.2.0'
}
I feel like 'com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:4.2.0' isn't being recognized and that's why 'GlideAppModule' is throwing an error but I can't figure out why.
EDIT: 'com.github.bumptech.glide:comiler:4.2.0' is the cause of the error. This was working before updating to Android Studio 3.0

Changing
implementation 'com.github.bumptech.glide:annotations:4.2.0'
annotationProcessor 'com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:4.2.0'
to
implementation 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.2.0'
annotationProcessor 'com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:4.2.0'
has solved my issue. I don't know how I ended up with a different implementation but there it is.

This is not supported in Kotlin:
annotationProcessor 'com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:4.2.0'
You need to use Kapt instead of annotationProcessor
kapt 'com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:4.2.0'
And then
apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'

Seems like some problem with a compiler, can't figure out what to do.
My bash profile if there is something to do with it
export GRADLE_HOME=/Users/xxx/Library/gradle-2.8/bin
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/xxx/Library/Android/sdk
export ANDROID_NDK=/Users/xxx/Library/android-ndk
export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/Contents/Home
export PATH=${PATH}:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$GRADLE_HOME:$JAVA_HOME:$ANDROID_NDK
I have tried different gradle versions - 2.11 , 2.12 , 2.8.
Im working on IntelliJ15. Tried setting project path in module settings, also tried setting language level to lambdas. Nothing seem to work.

Android is introducing java 8 only with Android N.
To work with java 8 you need:
Android Studio 2.1 (Preview)
enable the jack compiler
Somenthing like:
android {
...
defaultConfig {
...
jackOptions {
enabled true
}
}
compileOptions {
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}
}
More info here.
