Android Motionlayout: Android resource linking failed

I keep getting build errors after a refactor to motionlayout 2.0.0-beta1 (I know it's not the newest version - beta2 produces same errors).

Here's the stacktrace:

AAPT: /Users/TBS/StudioProjects/ExampleApp/app/build/intermediates/incremental/mergeDebugResources/merged.dir/values/values.xml:6514: error: resource attr/flow_horizontalSeparator (aka com.example:attr/flow_horizontalSeparator) not found.

There's no indication as to what file produces the error and to my knowledge I don't use any of these attributes anywhere in my project.

You would have to do two things:

  1. Update your android studio.

  2. add Latest dependency implementation

    'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:2.0.0-rc1'

This problem is related to Android Studio 3.6 and ConstraintLayout versions earlier than 2.0.0-beta3 - I've reported the issue here. This is fixed in ConstraintLayout 2.0.0-beta3.

Android Studio 3.5 doesn't produce this error.

To make it work in AS 3.6 beta, upgrade to ConstraintLayout 2.0.0-beta3 or later.

I upgraded gradle version to com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.6.0 then faced this issues, just downgrade gradle version to com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.3 and problem resolved

If even upgrading ConstraintLayout doesn't help, try to add format attribute to your attr declaration in your attrs.xml file.

<resources>
    <attr name="yourAttrName" format="string" />
</resources>

Choose proper format for your attribute.

upgrading to constraintlayout:2.0.0-beta4, worked for me , or later version. This happens after you upgrade android studio to 3.6
