Java – Operating system independent path found for multiple files as ‘android/databinding/DataBindingComponent.java

I’m getting this error while building in android studio :

Error:Execution failed for task
‘:app:transformResourcesWithMergeJavaResForDebug’.

More than one file was found with OS independent path ‘android/databinding/DataBindingComponent.java’

I used this library applied a universal adapter with data binding.
My application already has DataBinding turned on

  dataBinding {
    enabled = true
  }

The example in this library works fine, but I don’t know why it replicates the DataBindingComponent in my application.
Any clues to figure it out?

I’m having this issue when updating Android Studio to version 3.0.
Fix by adding packagingOptions:

android{
    packagingOptions {
        exclude 'android/databinding/DataBinderMapper.java'
        exclude 'android/databinding/DataBindingComponent.java'
        exclude 'android/databinding/DynamicUtil.java'
    }
}
