Can't resolve resource for child modules

[mayankm786]

Steps to reproduce the issue by updating your example app.

1. Create a library module lib-aar-child-1 and make it a dependency for lib-aar.
2. Create any activity in lib-aar-chidl-1 that injects some layout file.
3. Build lib-main
4. Create an application that consume fat-aar created in step 3
5. With-in the sample application start activity you created in step 2
6. Now launch the sample application - it will fail with following error

Process: fataarcom.myapplication, PID: 24168
    java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: No static field notification_media_action of type I in class Lcom/kezong/demo/lib/R$layout; or its superclasses (declaration of 'com.kezong.demo.lib.R$layout' appears in /data/app/fataar.com.myapplication-ak0csAas0a06SfPPK9sGkw==/base.apk!classes2.dex)
        at com.kezong.demo.libaar.child.R$layout.<clinit>(R.java:1018)

Following your steps, I can't reproduce the issue.
The layout that I used is simple, like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@android:color/white"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <Button
        android:layout_width="200dp"
        android:layout_height="100dp"
        android:text="text" />
</LinearLayout>

What is notification_media_action in your xml?
You can send your complete demo to my email

Will try to send you the demo, meanwhile more information

Inside build.gradle for lib-aar

    implementation project(":lib-aar-child1")

Inside build.gradle for lib-main

    embed project(path: ':lib-aar', configuration:'default')
    compileOnly project(path: ':lib-aar')

    embed project(path: ':lib-aar-child1', configuration:'default')

I didn't receive your demo.
There's still too little information. I can't reproduce it.
When compiling aar, use assembleRelease, and AAPT checks resources strictly.

@kezong turns out above issue was due to different version of support lib version in fat-aar and sample application

[kezong]

Yes, the support lib must be the same version.

Hi I have the same problem :(, what does means "different version of support lib version in fat-aar"

I'm using classpath 'com.kezong:fat-aar:1.1.10' in my buildScript

"different version of support lib version in fat-aar" means the support lib version that your application used is best to be the same as the library use. like this:

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1'
}

If you use 27.1.1 in your library, 29.0.0 in your application, maybe throw the error.

The recommended way was using resoulutionsStrategy.all to force the support library using the same latest stable version.
