For maven, you simply use this dependency instead of the usual htmlunit dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>net.sourceforge.htmlunit</groupId>
    <artifactId>htmlunit-android</artifactId>
    <version>2.64.0</version>
</dependency>

Overview

HtmlUnit is a "GUI-Less browser for Java programs" usually runs on every platform supported by java.

But Android is a bit different because the Android SDK already includes some (old) classes from the Apache HttpClient. HtmlUnit uses a more recent version HttpClient; and this is where the problem begins.

To solve the conflicts, this package uses shading and includes the HttpClient in the jar file itself but with a modified package name. There are no changes done to the implementation.

Or to be more detailed, this packages includes

• HtmlUnit itself

• htmlunit-core-js

• htmlunit-cssparser

• neko-htmlunit

• xml-apis/xml-apis:jar

• xerces/xercesImpl

• httpcomponents/httpmime:jar (shaded)

• httpcomponents/httpclient (shaded)

• httpcomponents/httpcore (shaded)

• commons-codec/commons-codec (shaded)

All the other dependencies are still dependencies of this package (see the pom.xml for more).
