See original GitHub issue

Hello @tommybuonomo, I have tried to create gradle tree with your library, but exception occured.

OS: Manjaro 17.1.1 Android Studio: 3.2.20 Canary Branch

Steps to reproduce

Create demo project with Android 28+
Build with default gradle.build
Added your library implementation
Exception occur

Here is exception backtrack:

Manifest merger failed : Attribute application@appComponentFactory value=(androidx.core.app.CoreComponentFactory) from [androidx.core:core:1.0.0-alpha3] AndroidManifest.xml:22:18-86
	is also present at [com.android.support:support-compat:28.0.0-alpha3] AndroidManifest.xml:22:18-91 value=(android.support.v4.app.CoreComponentFactory).
	Suggestion: add 'tools:replace="android:appComponentFactory"' to <application> element at AndroidManifest.xml:5:5-19:19 to override.

@IdeoG @assimtsenoussi I think you’re not using the android x format and this is why the build fail. Can you refactor your projects ? You can do it via AndroidStudio but do it it carefully (commit your current work before) Best regards.
