ic_launcher is already defined! What could be a mistake? I tried changing the build tools to 19.1.0, but I don’t think this is a problem?

here is my build.gradle code

 dependencies { compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:+' compile 'com.daimajia.slider:library: 1.0.1@aar ' compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar']) } 

Answer 1

I am the author of this library . I'm sorry that you got into this trouble.

There is a solution that you can try:

rename ic_launcher (in your project res/drawable-hdpi , res/drawable-mdpi , res/drawable-xhdpi , res/drawable-xxhdpi ).

This problem occurs when two files have the same name.

Answer 2

You must clean and rebuild your project. To do this, you need to cancel and then restart Android Studio.
