"Live Edit post processing failure: Multiple MinApiDetected"

05/16/2023, 2:37 AMMy gut feeling is that it might be something project setup related but not sure what it is referring to re MinApi 🙂

05/22/2023, 5:00 PMWould you be able to show us your project set up? Or tell us how we would be able to reproduce this on our end.

05/23/2023, 2:29 AMHi Alan,
Absolutely happy to share whatever is needed.
Do you have more context on what it is referring to when it says MinApi? This might help me better understand how it applies to the project.
In terms of minimum repro's again having more context on MinApi would help. When I create a brand new project Live edit works fine so it must be something project specific here.
I'll try add some more details below to see if that helps at all?

05/23/2023, 9:58 AMFabien and I are looking at what causes this. I am going to assume you are aware what minapi level for typical Android development (let me know if you are unfamiliar with that term).
So what happens is that each project should (as far as I am aware) have a single miniapi level set in the build files. When we attempt to Live Edit a specific file on a device, Android studio needs to know which is the minapi level your application wants to support. It needs to do this without referring to the build system.

05/23/2023, 9:59 AMLive Edit makes an attempt to understand your project's output and see if we can determine a single miniapi level.
Alan Leung
05/23/2023, 10:00 AMBut it seems like there are reports that Live Edit might not be able to do so for certain project setups and we are unable to determine why certain build output appears to have multiple miniapi
Alan Leung
05/23/2023, 10:01 AMFabien created a shell script to determine where that issue might coming from.

05/23/2023, 10:02 AMIt is in this issue tracker (https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/283737440). If you can, please add some information to the bug tracker as well.

05/23/2023, 10:03 AMohh when you say MinApi is it literally referring to the min android sdk version that we set?
Nathan Castlehow
05/23/2023, 10:25 AMI've run the script and added output to the attached issue. Thanks so much for chasing this one up! 🙂
