Android: Cache issue when rebuilding, need to clear cache to fix

[maitrungduc1410]

What's happening?

I have my react-native-video-trim lib which uses Nitro modules: https://github.com/maitrungduc1410/react-native-video-trim

It works fine until I install react-native-image-picker. Then I run yarn run android and it's throwing error related to Nitro modules.

You can check my reproducible repo attached with this issue.

I notice one thing, if I downgrade react-native-image picker to 7.1.2, then it works. This is full log, it's quite long:

Nitro Modules Version

^0.25.2

Nitrogen Version

No response

Can you reproduce this issue in the Nitro Example app here?

No, I cannot reproduce the issue in the Example app

Additional information

• I am using Expo
• I am using Nitrogen (nitro-codegen)
• I have read and followed the Troubleshooting Guide.

Essentially these are your C++ errors:

ld means linker error, so it fails to find the symbols for Nitro.

I am 99% certain that this is a cache issue - @hannojg @Szymon20000 I believe you have found a gradle task extension that will properly clean those caches to fix the issue, can one of you please create a PR here so we can test this? 🙏

[marf]

We have exactly the same issue and can confirm it is a cache issue. Has someone a way to permanently fix it? The only way we get it working is changing the package version in package.json then it works for a few builds and then it breaks again.

[artus9033]

I can confirm the same problem.

@maitrungduc1410 can you please commit the .yarn folder in your repro?
