UNEXPECTED TOP-LEVEL EXCEPTION: com.android.dex.DexException

Question

I am trying to integrate barcodefraglibv2 into my android app in AndroidStudio. I tried to copy libs core.jar and barcodelib.jar into libs directory. However when I try to run application, I get following error

Error:Execution failed for task ':Blok:dexDebug'.
