Fix React Native Android builds "Duplicate class kotlin.collections.* found in modules jetified-kotlin-stdlib-1.8.0"

#reactnative #android #kotlin #gradle

When I got up this morning, I was perplexed to see that our CI/CD builds were failing repeatedly with the following error:

Execution failed for task ':app:checkStagingReleaseDuplicateClasses'.
> A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.CheckDuplicatesRunnable

I looked for any problems relating to this but came up empty-handed. After making a few attempts, I discovered a workaround:

Your android/app/build.gradle file has to be updated in order to align kotlin-stdlib versions:

configurations.all {
    resolutionStrategy {
        eachDependency {
            if ((requested.group == "org.jetbrains.kotlin") && (requested.name.startsWith("kotlin-stdlib"))) {
                useVersion("1.6.10")
            }
        }
    }
}

UPDATE (27-01-2023):

In the android/app/build.gradle file, there is a better way to apply constraints for the two kotlin-stdlib-jdk7 and kotlin-stdlib-jdk8 modules:

dependencies {
    constraints {
        implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk7:1.8.0") {
            because("kotlin-stdlib-jdk7 is now a part of kotlin-stdlib")
        }
        implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk8:1.8.0") {
            because("kotlin-stdlib-jdk8 is now a part of kotlin-stdlib")
        }
    }

Thank you so much my friend! 100+ build failed yesterday can you explain us how did you find this?

Branko Bajic • Jan 27

Created an account just to thank you

Peter Malinovsky • Jan 27 • Edited

Thank you for the post. I meet the same errors and your first solution helped to fix them. I try to find a better sollution. I upgraded Kotlin to the latest version and it works fine.

Davyd NRB • Jan 27

Please give additional information about how you updated Kotlin in your project or on CI?

Syam Kishore • Mar 10

Issue resolved. Thank you.

I am a react-native developer and there is no kotlin code in my project, I do not do any bridging.

Still Do i need to maintain any plugins or constrains related to Kotlin?

Rabi • Feb 5

How can I update this in expo project because android/app/build.gradle is not available in my project directory??.

Davyd NRB • Feb 5

you can create own config plugin docs.expo.dev/guides/config-plugins/ that inject this value

An Animated Guide to Node.js Event Loop

Node.js doesn’t stop from running other operations because of Libuv, a C++ library responsible for the event loop and asynchronously handling tasks such as network requests, DNS resolution, file system operations, data encryption, etc.

What happens under the hood when Node.js works on tasks such as database queries? We will explore it by following this piece of code step by step.
