RxJavaCallAdapterFactory cannot be converted to Fa

Question

I'm trying to use Retrofit 2 and RxJava following the guide in this https://inthecheesefactory.com/blog/retrofit-2.0/en

In section "RxJava Integration with CallAdapter " explains how use RxJava with retrofit

Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
    .baseUrl("http://api.nuuneoi.com/base/")
    .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
    .addCallAdapterFactory(RxJavaCallAdapterFactory.create())
    .build();

However during compilation there is the following error:

Error:(63, 71) error: incompatible types: RxJavaCallAdapterFactory cannot be converted to Factory

How can I fix it? Thanks

Answer 1

change your retrofit rxjava adapter into

  implementation "com.squareup.retrofit2:adapter-rxjava2:$retrofit_version"

And change your CallAdapterFactory into

.addCallAdapterFactory(RxJava2CallAdapterFactory.create())

it will look something like this

.baseUrl(BASE_URL)
                .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
                .addCallAdapterFactory(RxJava2CallAdapterFactory.create())
                .build();

Answer 2

Currently adding "com.squareup.retrofit:adapter-rxjava:2.0.0" gives following error

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:transformResourcesWithMergeJavaResForDebug'. > com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException: com.android.builder.packaging.DuplicateFileException: Duplicate files copied in APK META-INF/rxjava.properties

But, instead, adding "compile 'com.jakewharton.retrofit:retrofit2-rxjava2-adapter:1.0.0",makes packaging successful

Answer 3

Make sure you are using the same groupId and version for the main Retrofit dependency, the Gson converter dependency, and the RxJava adapter dependency.

I'm guessing yours look something like this:

compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit:2.0.2'
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-gson:2.0.2'
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit:adapter-rxjava:2.0.0-beta2'

(Note that they use different groupIds and version numbers)

They should all look the same like this:

compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit:2.0.2'
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-gson:2.0.2'
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:adapter-rxjava:2.0.2'
