Changed the title of this issue so we can use it to track all discussions about the support lib dependency and associated pain.

Hi, is there any update for this? Would like to get hands dirty on the new support library for O. I am seeing latest firebase core 11.0.0 and support library 25.3.1. Hope there are new update from this UI library.

[samtstern]

Update coming very soon to version 2.0 which will depend on 11.0.0 and 25.3.1.

[qvivr-jeffrey]

Thank you, but today I downloaded android O sdk, and now I need to be on 26.0.0 🤔

[samtstern]

@qvivr-jeffrey this will always be something we are chasing, but you can normally work around it. See the instructions here:

[WillieCubed]

Hey, I'm wondering if the new Gradle version will be of any use for managing dependencies. Otherwise, I think we should update the build.gradle files to take into account compile deprecation in favor of using api or implementation.

[samtstern]

@TheCraftKid we do plan to switch to implementation once the 3.0 plugin stabilizes. When I experimented with it there were a few errors in each of the alpha versions and I decided to go the safe route.

[SUPERCILEX]

@TheCraftKid yeah that's the plan: the Firebase and support lib deps will be api and the rest will be implementation.

I'm getting the following:

All com.android.support libraries must use the exact same version specification (mixing versions can lead to runtime crashes). Found versions 25.4.0, 25.3.1. Examples include com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable:25.4.0 and com.android.support:cardview-v7:25.3.1

with these dependencies, as per constants.gradle:

compile "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.4.0"
compile "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:11.0.1"
compile "com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:11.0.1"
compile "com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-auth:2.0.1"

Hope it's OK to comment on a closed issue, rather than opening a new one.

[samtstern]

@edmundjohnson you have two options:

1. Change your appcompat dependency to 25.3.1
2. Add explicit dependencies on all of FirebaseUI's support lib deps at version 25.4.0.

See: https://github.com/firebase/FirebaseUI-Android#upgrading-dependencies

I'm also running into this issue.
Our app depends on appcompat version 27.0.2 but the Firebase core ui is stuck on 25.0.2

[brucechariot]

I'm using appcompat 28.0.0 but firebase core is still at 26.1.0
