Integrating Twilio Video and Twilio Chat in one

I am trying to integrate Twilio IP-Messaging into an application that also uses Twilio Conversations (Video). However, as per the change logs, IP Messaging SDK is using "common-android v 0.3" dependency, while,Conversations SDK using "common-android v0.5" dependency.

Because of this reason, i am not able to integrate both of them in one single application, either one of them suffers since both use different methods and also different versions of "common-android".

I have been referring to: ip-demo-android and they also use v0.8.1 of IP Messaging , which is the latest version.

I have also tried excluding the "common-android" dependency via gradle, but this unfortunately doesn't support the latest version of the conversations sdk.

compile ('com.twilio:ip-messaging-android:0.8.1+') {
    exclude group: 'com.twilio', module: 'common-android'
}

compile ('com.twilio:conversations-android:0.12.0'){
    exclude group: 'com.twilio', module: 'common-android'
}

and added, common-android v0.3.1 jar explicitly in the libs folder.

I do not think there is any code required for this problem, but i am having issues in converting the following code snippet to use the latest common-android dependency

ipMessagingClient = TwilioIPMessagingSDK.createClient(
                            accessManager, props, BasicIPMessagingClient.this);

The accessManager that createClient takes as an argument is an instance of TwilioAccessManager while the new version of common-android, has a class AccessManager which is not compatible with TwilioAccessManager.

I would like to know if there is any other way by which i can create an ipMessagingClient of if there is a way to make both the modules work with different versions of common-android without causing multiple-dex errors.

Twilio: Android dependencies issue

Twilio Developer Evangelist here.

We had a dependency conflict with com.twilio:ip-messaging-android:0.8.1, but have now fixed that and the fact that they use two different AccessManagers in 0.9.0. this should solve the problem you're encountering.
