As another "for instance" of this error, I am working on Android-ifying some existing Java code that relies on java.beans.PropertyChangeListener and java.beans.PropertyChangeEvent. I can pull those files out of Apache Harmony, and they are nicely self-contained -- PropertyChangeEvent references PropertyChangeListener, but everything else they use are supplied by Android.
When I tried putting src/java/beans/PropertyChangeEvent.java and src/java/beans/PropertyChangeListener.java in my source tree, though, I triggered the --core-library error message from dx. > In particular, dx > rejects the definition of classes in namespaces which are already used > by classes in the standard boot classpath or are likely to be defined > in future incarnations of the platform. The problem is that you put us out here in a bind: we can't use your classes (because they are not in the SDK) and you won't let us use our edition of those classes. I would recommend the --core-library dx error message have a link to some documentation page where this gets spelled out, so we know what to expect. In particular, a list of the prohibited namespaces would be handy, so we don't have to just guess what we can and cannot use.
