uses-sdk element cannot have a “tools:node” attrib

问题:

I've updated Android Studio last night to 0.9.0, buildToolsVersion to 21.1.0 and gradle to 0.14.0, after that I'm receiving this error

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugManifest'. Manifest merger failed : uses-sdk element cannot have a "tools:node" attribute

I've spent the last night looking for a solution, I found this:
<uses-sdk tools:node="replace" />

But unfortunately, added one more error!

Error:(10, 5) uses-sdk element cannot have a "tools:node" attribute
Error:(10, 5) Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugManifest'.
Manifest merger failed : uses-sdk element cannot have a "tools:node" attribute

Another solution I've read, to not use support-v4:21, for me I don't use it, since I'm using v13.

Solution:--

Add this line to uses-sdk tag like this:-

<uses-sdk
    tools:node="merge"   <----This line do the magic
    android:minSdkVersion="14"
    android:targetSdkVersion="19" />

And add the tools name space in manifest :-

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" .....
.../>

OK this is not the answer, but a temporary workaround.

According to the Gradle build tools release notes this problem was fixed in version 0.13.2 (2014/09/26)
However, seems to happen again in 0.14.0 (2014/10/31)

You can disable the manifest merger task in order to build your project for the time being.
Add the following in your build.gradle file

android.applicationVariants.all { variant ->
variant.processResources.manifestFile = file('src/main/AndroidManifest.xml')
variant.processManifest.enabled=false }

See this question for reference.

I ran into this after upgrading to Android Studio 1.0.0 rc4. I had previously been using so that I could make projects with lower min SDK versions than some of the libraries they depended on. Turns out, if you remove tools:replace and let the compiler error out again with the manifest merge conflict, it will provide you with a much better solution:

<uses-sdk tools:overrideLibrary="com.google.android.gms" />

At least, the Google Play Services library was what I was running into. Actually, you can list a whole bunch if you need to. Just comma-separate the package names. You may have to run the compiler a few times until it tells you every library that's causing problems.

My solution

• I have removed all of the <uses-sdk tools:node="replace" /> From all of my manifest.xml files

• In my base.gradle file(the one for the entire project I Added

  ext {
    compileSdkVersion = 19
    buildToolsVersion = "21"
    minSdkVersion = 10
    targetSdkVersion = 19
  }
  

• In my modules I have this
  

  // all modules
  compileSdkVersion rootProject.ext.compileSdkVersion
  buildToolsVersion rootProject.ext.buildToolsVersion
  // in an application module
  defaultConfig {
     applicationId "com.something"
     minSdkVersion rootProject.ext.minSdkVersion
     targetSdkVersion rootProject.ext.targetSdkVersion
     versionCode appVersionCode
     versionName appVersionName
  }
