Android: Duplicate class XX found in modules

Good morning friends, I need help.
This project needs to use these two libraries. And when compiling they are having a conflict because there are certain classes.
In fact, I already separated them as "independent" modules and I keep getting the error.
I call the two libraries in the build.gradle (:app) like this:
implementation project(path: ':smartill')
implementation project(path: ':smartill-mini-plus')
also, add in gradle.properties
android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true
Any ideas to separate them?
Error text:
Execution failed for task ':app:checkPaStagingDuplicateClasses'.
> 1 exception was raised by workers:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Duplicate class com.dm.commonlib.ThreadPoolManager found in

Why does implementing the Cloneable Interface in a Kotlin class result in "error: no interface expected here"?

I'm resuming work on an Android app that I haven't touched for a year. It used to build fine at the time. Now when I open it in Android Studio it complains that various libs, plugins, etc. are out of date. Trying to fix this myself, I couldn't get rid of all the sync/build errors, so in the end I updated Android Studio (from around 3.3, I think) to 3.5.2 and let it update whatever plugins etc. it wanted to.
Then I ran into issues indicating I should migrate from the old support packages to AndroidX (don't remember the details). To migrate, I then did the following:
Set compileSdkVersion to 28 for all modules
In all modules' build.gradle, updated the dependencies to 28
Added android.useAndroidX=true and android.enableJetifier=true to gradle.properties
Ran Refactor | Migrate to AndroidX...
Now Gradle sync works, but building fails with this error:
> Task :app:kaptDebugKotlin FAILED
e: [...]\app\build\tmp\kapt3\stubs\debug\com\[...]\MyClass.java:9: error: no interface expected here
public final class MyClass extends java.lang.Cloneable {
^
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
The above error is in generated code. My code, from which the above is generated, looks like this:
// MyClass.kt
class MyClass : Cloneable {
...
}
I understand java.lang.Cloneable is an interface, and the generated code has extends instead of implements. But as mentioned, this used to work, so what am I doing wrong?

I took another look at the project-level build.gradle and found it. Android Studio was suggesting to update the Kotline version again. I changed it to
ext.kotlin_version = '1.3.61'
and now I can compile.

Importing missing package (sun.security.pkcs.PKCS10) automatically in Android Studio

I have to use PKCS10 class into my project. I tried to import sun.security.pkcs.PKCS10; into my activity code but studio shows "Cannot resolve symbol PKCS10" at both places where I have imported it and where I want to instantiat it.
Note: I haven't added any dependency or library (like .jar) to my project.
I want to know whether can it be automatically?

The class sun.security.pkcs10.PKCS10 was removed from the JDK. Using a class that was internal and already removed from the JDK is going a step beyond just using an internal API.
Put this into your build.gradle file.
compileJava {
options.forkOptions.javaHome = file(System.properties['java.home'])
}
And if this does not work, put this into you build.gradle(app) dependencies.
compile group: 'com.sun', name: 'rt', version: '1.5.0_06'

BodyEditorLoader.jar gives NoSuchMethodError

I was just starting to use the BodyEditorLoader.jar library but i got a NoSuchMethodError without any reason. Then i googled it and found a post on stackoverflow which wasn't useful and links were also broken but i came to know that the official library out there is buggy.
How do i fix this? Could not found the updated version of the library. Also some people provided the updated java file but how do i make it a library file as the library file contains the .class file and not the .java file.
Anyways here is the error:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.badlogic.gdx.utils.JsonReader.parse
and here is the code that gives the error:
BodyEditorLoader loader = new BodyEditorLoader(Gdx.files.internal("data/test.json"));

From question it's seems you have some buggy BodyEditorLoader class, you can inject gdx-utils jar inside your core module and after that you can access BodyEditorLoader class inside your project, May be it solve your problem.
dependencies {
compile group: 'com.github.itsabhiaryan', name: 'gdx-utils', version: '1.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
}
Don't forget to refresh all of your gradle module.

How to import ActionBarSherlock using Gradle in Android app?

I'm trying to import ActionBarSherlock (ABS) into my Android app using Gradle, but unfortunately, when building I get a list of errors saying:
/Users/kramer65/dev/repos/android-official/OurPackage/build/res/all/debug/values/values.xml:248: error: Attribute "titleTextStyle" has already been defined
/Users/kramer65/dev/repos/android-official/OurPackage/build/res/all/debug/values/values.xml:250: error: Attribute "subtitleTextStyle" has already been defined
/Users/kramer65/dev/repos/android-official/OurPackage/build/res/all/debug/values/values.xml:256: error: Attribute "divider" has already been defined
/Users/kramer65/dev/repos/android-official/OurPackage/build/res/all/debug/values/values.xml:258: error: Attribute "background" has already been defined
[etc. etc.]
* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':processDebugResources'.
> Could not call IncrementalTask.taskAction() on task ':processDebugResources'
I'm trying to import ABS using the following in build.gradle:
dependencies {
compile 'com.actionbarsherlock:actionbarsherlock:4.4.0#aar'
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:18.0.+'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:4.0.30'
instrumentTestCompile(files('libs/espresso-1.0-SNAPSHOT-bundled.jar'))
}
and in my settings.gradle I've got the following line:
include ':OurPackage', ':Libraries:ActionBarSherlock'
Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? All tips are welcome!

The same attributes titleTextStyle, subtitleTextStyle, divider, background are defined in 2 different libraries.
The 'com.actionbarsherlock:actionbarsherlock:4.4.0#aar' and the support library 'com.android.support:support-v4:18.0.+' which introduced the v7 appcompat library can't work together.
