I am trying to create a new module. Elements of this module should be visible to the first module.That is why I add implementation project(":messanger") to Build.gradle(:app) but it gives the following error:

Dependent features configured but no package ID was set.
Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'.
A failure occurred while executing 
com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.Workers$ActionFacade
AAPT2 aapt2-4.0.0-beta01-6051327-linux Daemon #0: Unexpected error during link, attempting 
 to 
stop daemon.
 This should not happen under normal circumstances, please file an issue if it does.

The module you have created is using the plugin 'com.android.application' and it should be using the 'com.android.library' plugin. You can find this in the build.gradle file in your module, change this to use the library plugin and it should compile.
