wenn32 opened a new issue #484: Cordova + Android Work Manager
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/issues/484
 
 
   I choose WorkManager to make a scheduled service that would help me post data to server when cordova based app is closed.
   
   So, I start with including dependencies in build.gradle (Module:app)
   
   ```
   dependencies {
       implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')
   
       //>>>>THIS LINE HERE IS FOR WORKMANAGER and MULTIDEX
       implementation "android.arch.work:work-runtime:1.0.0-alpha01"
       implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'
   
       // SUB-PROJECT DEPENDENCIES START
       implementation(project(path: ":CordovaLib"))
       compile "com.android.support:support-v4:24.1.1+"
       // SUB-PROJECT DEPENDENCIES END
   }
   ```
   
   Now I run following commands
   
   ```
   cordova clean
   cordova build android
   ```
   
   I get throw with an exception:
   
   ```
   Execution failed for task ':app:transformDexArchiveWithExternalLibsDexMergerForDebug'.
   
   java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: com.android.builder.dexing.DexArchiveMergerException: Unable to merge dex
   ```
   
   So, I add this line
   
   ```
   android {
   
       defaultConfig {
           versionCode cdvVersionCode ?: new BigInteger("" + privateHelpers.extractIntFromManifest("versionCode"))
           applicationId privateHelpers.extractStringFromManifest("package")
   
           //>>>>THIS LINE HERE
           multiDexEnabled true
   
           if (cdvMinSdkVersion != null) {
               minSdkVersion cdvMinSdkVersion
           }
       }
   
       lintOptions {
         abortOnError false;
       }
   
       compileSdkVersion cdvCompileSdkVersion
       buildToolsVersion cdvBuildToolsVersion
   ```
   I ran the clean and build commands again. Now, I get new exception:
   
   ```
   Execution failed for task ':app:transformClassesWithMultidexlistForDebug'.
   > java.io.IOException: Can't write [C:\Users\hjhkjn\Desktop\cordova\hjhkjnad\platforms\android\app\build\intermediates\multi-dex\debug\componentClasses.jar] (Can't read [C:\Users\hjhkjn\Desktop\cordova\hjhkjnad\platforms\android\app\build\intermediates\transforms\desugar\debug\19.jar(;;;;;;**.class)] (Duplicate zip entry [19.jar:android/support/v4/content/PermissionChecker$PermissionResult.class]))
   ```
   I do get this error as well - https://i.stack.imgur.com/sZadD.png
   Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
