is there sth wrong in the <dependencies>....</dependencies>?

[jakingting]

how to resolve?thx!

[jacklydoudou]

@jakingting 不知道啊,看似是他们的Pom文件写错了, 比较了上几个版本,就这个版本的 dependencies节点关于GifCoder的修改了,在12号的凌晨,目测得等他们起床,毕竟有时差~~~~5555555555555555555

same issue here

Using glide:4.0.0-SNAPSHOT
Gradle system.

[jacklydoudou]

@TWiStErRob waiting for u.......

[alinturcu]

Is there any workaround for this? Excluding the dependency doesn't solve the issue. @TWiStErRob is there someone actively working on this?

[jipeprojects]

Same issue here.

Maybe using the @aar from here? https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/com/github/bumptech/glide/glide/4.0.0-SNAPSHOT/

_Morning everyone... don't be so impatient, you know there're time zones...
Even if the problem is so apparent, I would suggest to fill in the issue details, which I updated now it helps others to find the issue and us to faster diagnose it as well._

Yes, it seems it was broken a few hours ago.
I found two Gradle-compatible workarounds, _both work with integration libraries as well_.

@alinturcu, yes it does, you can use a similar technique as described in #941 for this as well:

// instead of excluding a transitive dependency, you need to add this
configurations {
    // @see https://github.com/bumptech/glide/issues/1464
    compile.exclude group: 'glide-parent.third_party', module: 'gif_decoder'
}
dependencies {
    compile ('com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.0.0-SNAPSHOT') {
        // for some reason this is not enough, and doesn't have any effect
        //exclude group: 'glide-parent.third_party', module: 'gif_decoder'
    }
    // if you need GIF support, you need to re-include that module too:
    compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:gifdecoder:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT'
}

---

A simpler workaround: since Gradle 2.4 you can just revert to the previous version until there's a fix:

// the broken build is 4.0.0-20160912.001439-203 and probably 4.0.0-...-204 will be fixed again
// @see https://github.com/bumptech/glide/issues/1464
compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.0.0-20160905.222409-202'

I urge everyone to take a look at gradle dependencies --configuration compile to see why/how this one works.

---

_A personal note for the impatient: this is a simple dependency issue, you didn't need to wait for us to figure it out. This class of problems is not related to Glide, it's simply how you need to handle a Gradle-Maven dependency resolution issue for any library. Reporting it is important though, so it can be fixed!_

compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.0.0-20160905.222409-202'

useful and simple~ thx~

[jakingting]

Tnx @TWiStErRob ! Works!
