java lang NoClassDefFoundError failed resolution of Lorg apache http ProtocolVersion

Question

The APK is compiled, but when I attempt to run the app on the Android P emulator is giving an error:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:failed resolution of :Lorg/apache/http/ProtocolVersion

My build.grade file:

android {

     compileSdkVersion 'android-P'
     buildToolsVersion '28-rc1'
   
    useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'

    //for Lambda
    compileOptions {
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }

Can someone explain to me why this error is coming?
