Gradle not resolving after compiling rainbow hat

[soorajshankar]

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:preDebugAndroidTestBuild'.

Conflict with dependency 'com.android.support:support-annotations' in project ':app'. Resolved versions for app (24.2.0) and test app (25.4.0) differ. See https://d.android.com/r/tools/test-apk-dependency-conflicts.html for details.

Can you post the line in your gradle file you're using to import the rainbow hat?

I fixed that by removing expresso from dependency .
But seems some version mismatching is there.
BTW this was the way I imported rainbowhat

compile 'com.google.android.things.contrib:driver-rainbowhat:+'

also tried with older version 0.7 and all

Min SDK version 26
target SDK version 26 (tried with 24 as min also then things was not compatible)

Looks like Rainbow Hat uses 24.2.0 of Android Support Annotations, but only for testing. I don't know why it would conflict with your version.

[soorajshankar]

I think Android Support Annotations are defined as Implementation but not Test Implementation

I doubt that could be a problem if I use another support library with different version

[Fleker]

Yes you're right it isn't defined as testImplementation, but I do wonder why this library is using it. It probably should be updated or perhaps removed.

But implementation shouldn't pass the dependencies through AFAIK.
