[REQUIRED] Step 3: Describe the problem
Steps to reproduce:
Updated all the firebase dependencies last night only to receive the following lint error:
Execution failed for task ':app:lintDebug'.
> Lint found errors in the project; aborting build.
Fix the issues identified by lint, or add the following to your build script to proceed with errors:
...
android {
lintOptions {
abortOnError false
}
}
...
Errors found:
/Users/amanda.hinchman-dominguez/Documents/repos/47deg/scaladaysandroidkotlin/app: Error: Unexpected failure during lint analysis (this is a bug in lint or one of the libraries it depends on)
Message: 'com.android.builder.model.AndroidProject com.android.tools.lint.detector.api.Project.getGradleProjectModel()'
The crash seems to involve the detector com.google.firebase.installations.lint.IncompatibleIidVersionDetector.
You can try disabling it with something like this:
android {
lintOptions {
disable "IncompatibleIidVersion"
}
}
Stack: NoSuchMethodError:IncompatibleIidVersionDetector.beforeCheckEachProject(IncompatibleIidVersionDetector.kt:56)←LintDriver.checkProject(LintDriver.kt:894)←LintDriver.analyze(LintDriver.kt:422)←LintCliClient.run(LintCliClient.java:238)←LintGradleClient.run(LintGradleClient.java:261)←LintGradleExecution.runLint(LintGradleExecution.java:305)←LintGradleExecution.lintSingleVariant(LintGradleExecution.java:392)←LintGradleExecution.analyze(LintGradleExecution.java:94)
I did some digging of my own - the library jars downloaded in com.google.firebase.installations appears to be missing the package for lint let alone the class itself. Furthermore, there appears to be no such class in documentation or release notes.
However, I did spot two recent commits made in roughly the last 2 weeks involving the existence of com.google.firebase.installations.lint.IncompatibleIidVersionDetector:
- Lint jar for IID Version incompatibility Lint jar for IID Version incompatabiltiy #1347
- Prototype a lint check for fis. Prototype a lint check for fis. #1346
