Android Build fail - java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: already added: Lcom/google/api/client/escape/CharEscapers;

Question

I just prepare small update for my android app, but I get this strange bug when I try to build my app (in debug mode). It will be great if someone smarter could look at this

Answer 1

You have same jar library included twice. Check your application and all referenced Android libraries and make sure you have all jars included exactly once.

If that does not help, take a look at http://tools.android.com/knownissues. Specifically look at first issue described in Build System section.
