importing HtmlUnit to Android project

I downloaded the htmlunit-2.xx-OSGi.jar from htmlunit sourceforge page. Moved that jar into my /lib folder and when I import these I get error.

import com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.WebClient; 
import com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.html.HtmlPage;

ERROR:

Execution failed for task ':app:transformClassesWithDexForDebug'.
> com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Process 'command 'C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_45\bin\java.exe'' finished with non-zero exit value 1

What am I doing wrong or how can I use this library?

Solution

  • HtmlUnit doesn't work with android, because of JVM and DVM. You can also try using Selenium, which is very similar in working to HtmlUnit, reference for selenium.
