This plugin is incompatible with phonegap-plugin-push plugin because android-support-v4.jar is included (cordova build android failing)

[jacqueskang]

If both phonegap-facebook-plugin and phonegap-plugin-push are installed in the same project then cordova build android will fail.
Investigation shows that this is because android-support-v4.jar is included in this plugin.
See phonegap/phonegap-plugin-push#338

Is there a way to fix this or provide any walkaround please?
Thanks in advance.

hello guys
don't waste your time in "phonegap-facebook-plugin"
please follow this

Hi, I found a solution for this problem after many time spent on Google :p
You must use cordova 5.0 (or equivalent in phonegap) for this solution.

Found the plugin.xml in plugins/com.phonegap.plugins.facebookConnect and replace the line 60

<framework src="platforms/android/FacebookLib" custom="true" />

by this :

<framework src="com.android.support:support-v4:+" />
<framework src="com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:3.23.0" />

You will replace a local dependence by a graddle dependence more efficient and without conflict

EDIT : You must reinstall the platform after that.

hi
i replaced the line but getting the same error ?
do i need to refresh my android project somehow ?

[Clebiez]

Yes sorry, you must rm the platform and add it again to consider this change.

[boten]

the build is working again :)

thank you :)

@Clebiez , Just implemented your hack. Yes its working, amazing

I also encountered this issue, I am also using another plugin which may be causing the conflict.

The fix identified by @Clebiez works.

Can this be integrated into the repo?

I would be happy to set up a PR but I don't know enough about cordova to understand the ramifications of the change.

Clebiez you are a god!!!
