Android aar include jar dependency resources folder

Hello
While developing an Android AAR module, I encounter the following problem
My AAR module has a few jar dependencies, some of them have resources folder with error localized error messages. For some reason when I create the module AAR I noticed that Android build process exclude the resources folder from the jar dependency. The dependencies folder is an essential part since otherwise the error details are not found.
If something could shed light on the issue, I tried to create additional resources folder under main/resources//messages.properties but it didn't help.
Any help will be appreciated
here is my gradle file

You need to use api instead of provided. You can find more info from here.
As i know aar cant have transitive dependencies. You may try export fat aar or you can give it a try to
implementation 'your.package:your_artifact:your_version' {transitive = true}
PS: Dont use type #aar
Also known as flatDir, because flatDir dependencies DOES NOT resolve transitives)
implementation 'your.package:your_artifact:your_version#aar' {transitive = true}
On the otherhand, you need to convert your project to maven standards. So that, you need a pom.xml file which points transitive dependencies under dependencies tag.
As you experienced jar files cant have resource files either. If you dont need to resource files, just export jar by executing createFullJarRelease task.
If you have to use .aar, you can add other dependencies that library uses in consumer.

Aapt2 error : Using ormlite and while running OrmLiteConfigUtil getting below error after upgrading to Android studio 3 and gradle 3

Normally i am able to build my project but whenever there is a database change i need to run OrmLiteConfigUtil and after running it i get error as below. it never succeeds. I tried exploring other question and found below solution but still it doesn't works.
I tried disabling Aapt2 by putting android.enableAapt2=false in gradle properties file.

Which is my project level gradle.propeties file in these or i dont have it ?

./Gradlew Build is taking 2 hours and 40 minutes - Is there any room for improvement?

The app that we are working on is not very large - most of it is an empty application that gets filled in from various endpoints (server side), but we currently have 18 separate flavors of the app that get built.
The issue is, there will be 78 flavors of the application built and if the build time is linear, we are looking at about 11 hours per ./gradlew build request.
Im not well versed in Gradle at all and I was hoping you guys could help me find some problem areas that might be able to improve our build times

Thank you in advance

I'm sure you figured something out by now, but just for future googlers -
Android Studio gradle takes too long to build improved the speed of my gradle build drastically. It suggests enabling Offline work in Android Studio by going to file>settings>build, execution, deployment>gradle and checking the "Offline work" option.

androidTestCompile not working in Android Studio 2.1.2

I followed the instruction here to add an instrumentation test, but unfortunately Android Studio complains about the classes from the test runner package (com.android.support.test:runner:0.5) or test rules or espresso-core (cannot find symbol). If I change the dependency type from androidTestCompile to compile, the errors disappear. I created an instrumentation run config, and currently that run config is selected.

I've spent about a day on this myself and finally figured it out. This is an Android Studio feature - termed a feature, but I'd consider it a bug.
To get instrumentation tests working, you need to set your Build Variants to the following:
Test Artifact: Android Instrumentation Tests
Build Variant: debug
See here for more details
I personally think is makes no sense; it's not like you're using androidTestCompileDebug, and running gradle <app_name>:dependencies repeatedly shows pulling in androidTestCompile dependencies, regardless of the build variant. But for some reason, they only resolve in debug.
I hope this helps.

Databinding fails with NoSuchMethodError

After updating to gradle 2.10 every time when I try to assemble debug build of the app I get the NoSuchMethodError exception. Here is the relevant part of the build log:
java.lang.RuntimeException: failure, see logs for details.

Question
Did anyone else had the same problem? How to fix it? If you need some extra information, please let me know in comments.

Have you tried the new patch on jitpack of simular issue #134 clean-build, there seemed to be something wrong with gradle import ordering you can try it with :
repositories {
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.github.denis-itskovich:gradle-retrolambda:3.2.3-fix-134'
}

It looks like there is an error with a plugin after upgrading the Android Studio.
If you go in : <Android Studio Dir>/plugins/android/lib/builder-model-x.x.x.jar you may find 2 .jars. Try to delete the old version .jar and keep the new one and also clean and rebuild the project.
if the above does not work try this:
Change the version of Objectify library in the build.gradle file of your backend to 4.0b to 5.0.3 or higher if it exists.
This is may sound irrelevant but objectify 4.0b library has same classes with same package name which are present in appengine sdk like com.google.common.base.Strings.isNullOrEmpty.
when you deploy the app backend the appengine classes are overridden by objectify classes and hence when you try to call some method it is throwing error.
This is solved in objectify 5.0.+
Hope it helps as it helped me solving this issue.
