ksoap2-android | ksoap2 library

I have migrated my project to android x and I need to create Apk of the project through android studio Build>>Build Bundle(s) /APK(s)>>Build Apk(s). But when I do this it gives me the following error as in the screen shot below: enter image description here

But when I comment out the highlighted section in the below build.gradle file as shown in picture below build is created by going through Build>>Build Bundle(s) /APK(s)>>Build Apk(s) process enter image description here

I have tried every solution on internet eg invalidate caches and restart, clean project and using androidComponent{ instead of android.applicationVariants.all {

Any help would be appreciated orany work around this situation.

Thanks in advance :)

Here is my build.gradle:

I am trying to use RxJava and return a Single when an insert to my room database is successful, but I have the following error when compiling:

I an trying to import Ksoap2 library in android studio using .jar file version 3.6.4. I have successfully implemented the jar file to android studio. However, on the module app activity when I try to import e.g. import "org.ksoap2.SoapEnvelope;", it gets and error it shows following results:

Execution failed for task ':app:checkDebugAarMetadata'.

Could not resolve all files for configuration ':app:debugRuntimeClasspath'. Could not find com.google.code.ksoap2-android:ksoap2-android:3.6.4. Searched in the following locations: - https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/com/google/code/ksoap2-android/ksoap2-android/3.6.4/ksoap2-android-3.6.4.pom - https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/com/google/code/ksoap2-android/ksoap2-android/3.6.4/ksoap2-android-3.6.4.pom - https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/google/code/ksoap2-android/ksoap2-android/3.6.4/ksoap2-android-3.6.4.pom Required by: project :app

Possible solution:

• Declare repository providing the artifact, see the documentation at https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/declaring_repositories.html

Also the imports library have error, please see the pic:

Here is the Build.gradle module code:

I didn't get much results at the beginning because I thought SOAP was pronounced soup, I even got soup recipes as results.

However, it's 2020 and after researching a lot. I found a lot of people suffering to connect to SOAP web services on android. (I'm obliged to do this, since the web service is an oracle one which is SOAP based and I have to develop the app for android mobiles) This is the web-service I'm trying to call: web-service

I have a couple questions actually:

1. There are people that use ksoap2 library and are ok with it but then they want to generate java files from the wsdl file. Why would they want to do that?suffering more suffering
2. Is it enough to use ksoap2 library only and it will do the job for sending requests and receiving responses? (I'm not even sure in what form I will get the responses using ksoap2)
3. Is there any better method to connect to SOAP web-service on android applications?
4. As a java client using wsimport command generates stubs that are ready to be used as classes as if I'm at the web-service's side, is this possible in android's case?

I'm trying to rebuild my project which I've written in JAVA but it has constantly failed with the error

In my project After add Exoplayer 2.10.5 in my app.gradle file I get this error:

my gradle version is 3.5.2

I am attempting to import kSOAP2 into my app. I used their instructions to import via Maven and attempted translate it using Gradle. It shows up on the external repositories list, however when I try to add import com.google.code.ksoap2-android.ksoap2-android.3.6.4 it is not found.

Here is my build.gradle
