Wikitude: uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 14 cannot be smaller than version 15 declared in library [:wikitudesdk:]

I'm trying to build a cordova android app with wikitude plugin. When I build the project using cordova build, I got an error: Manifest merger failed : uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 14 cannot be smaller than version 15 declared in library [:wikitudesdk:]. I tried several answers here: Manifest merger failed : uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 14, but they didn't solve my problem.

Currently, my portion of build.gradle looks like:

dependencies {
    // do not use dynamic updating.
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:20.+' 
}

and I changed my AndroidManifest.xml to force the minsdkversion set to be 15:

<uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="15"
        android:targetSdkVersion="23" />

anybody has ideas to solve this?

Solution

  • Sorry, my bad, I shouldn't change the: ~\<Project>\platforms\android\build\intermediates\exploded-aar\wikitudesdk\AndroidManifest.xml. Instead, I just changed the version in ~\<Project>\platforms\android\AndroidManifest.xml and it works. Also, there's no need to change the dependencies in build.gradle if you are using the latest version. It should be a quick and easy fix.
