Problems compiling game with Android and LibGDX

I'm trying to create a game with the library of LibGDX but when I migrate all the files that create to Android Studio throwme the error of the word "compile" that is deprecated.
The issue is... I change the word "compile" for "implementation" but still saying that there's a problem...

All that is what it brings by default.
I change in the module of eclipse where it says classpath and in the module of idea where it says scopes, but doesn't change the result.
I hope someone help me

Configuration 'compile' is obsolete and has been replaced with 'implementation' and 'api'. Can some one help me out to fix this bug? [duplicate]

Can some one help me out to fix this bug.
It's a libGDX application. the project is running fine while testing in emulator but only in the time of building (both ways:signed apk/build apk) i'm seeing this error! Plz i need help. any help would be appreciated.
Error Scrren:
Configuration 'compile' is obsolete and has been replaced with 'implementation' and 'api'.
It will be removed at the end of 2018. For more information see: http://d.android.com/r/tools/update-dependency-configurations.html

For Android Studio mainly you have to change this in your Gradle App level inside your build.gradle just change compile for implementation. For example:
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:27.0.3'
}
Should be:
dependencies {
implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:27.0.3'
}

Google App Engine: DuplicateFileException

Been using my backend for over a year without a problem. Today I made a deployment from a new computer and all of a sudden I got a duplicatefileexception.
Full error:
Error:Execution failed for task ':android:transformResourcesWithMergeJavaResForDebug'.
> com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException: com.android.builder.packaging.DuplicateFileException: Duplicate files copied in APK com/google/appengine/repackaged/org/apache/commons/codec/language/bm/sep_approx_spanish.txt

There is an answer on Stack that says all you need to do is add this to your gradle:
dependencies {
appengineSdk 'com.google.appengine:appengine-java-sdk:1.9.42'
compile 'com.google.appengine:appengine-endpoints:1.9.42'
compile ('com.google.appengine:appengine-endpoints-deps:1.9.42'){
exclude "sep_approx_spanish.txt" //added
}
compile 'javax.servlet:servlet-api:2.5'
compile files('src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib/objectify-5.1.12.jar')
compile files('src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib/guava-19.0.jar')
compile files('src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib/gcm-server-1.0.2.jar')
}
However this gives me another error:
Error:Could not find method exclude() for arguments [sep_approx_spanish.txt] on DefaultExternalModuleDependency{group='com.google.appengine', name='appengine-endpoints-deps', version='1.9.42', configuration='default'} of type org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.dependencies.DefaultExternalModuleDependency.
I've looked through my client gradle and server, I can't find anywhere I am calling the same library twice or anything like that. Not sure what has happened.

after i add this in
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
then i get this error:

sourceSets.main.java.srcDirs = [ "src/" ]
eclipse.project {
name = appName + "-core"
}
Also in core's build.gradle I get error in :
eclipse not found :
eclipse.project {
name = appName + "-core"
}

Well It worked , I imported the test in a new project instead of merging the modules in my already existing project . And used default gradle wrapper instead of local gradle distribution .

how generate multiple apk (using gradle , libGDX)

I try this
I want generate few APK (x86, armeabi-v7a). In order to reduce the size of APK in Google Play
But its doesnt work. Android studia says

Looks like it fails on a try to get ABI for universal APK as there is no filter for it in your versionCodes map. You should check the result of output.getFilter(OutputFile.ABI) before applying multiplication in some manner like for example:
android.applicationVariants.all { variant ->
// assign different version code for each output
variant.outputs.each { output ->
def abiFilter = output.getFilter(OutputFile.ABI)
def abiMultiplier = 0
if (abiFilter != null) {
abiMultiplier = project.ext.versionCodes.get(abiFilter)
}
output.versionCodeOverride =
abiMultiplier * 1000000 + android.defaultConfig.versionCode
}
}

TL;DR:
I just had the same problem, and for me the answer is thankfully simple. Instead of using OutputFilter.ABI in the call to output.getFilter,
use OutputFilter.FilterType.ABI:
android.applicationVariants.all { variant ->
variant.outputs.each { output ->
def defaultCode = android.defaultConfig.versionCode
def filter = output.getFilter(OutputFile.FilterType.ABI)
def abiMultiplier = project.ext.versionCodes.get(filter)
output.versionCodeOverride = abiMultiplier * 1000000 + defaultCode
}
}
What broke
This is essentially what you have above, but refactored into a few more lines. The key difference is in the call to output.getFilter. The examples in the docs say to use OutputFile.ABI - as of more recent tools versions (I'm not sure which), this is wrong. The correct argument is OutputFile.FilterType.ABI.
The getFilter method is defined on the class ApkVariantOutputImpl. As you can see in the source code for ApkVariantOutputImpl, it takes a single argument of type OutputFile.FilterType; OutputFile.ABI is a String, and Groovy (despite all the other bits of magic it does) evidently does not convert the constant string into the proper enum, resulting in a null value.
Disclaimer
Just FYI, I had to dig pretty extensively through different versions of the build tools to find the source link - it seems that this has been an area of API instability. This works for me, with the following settings:
buildscript {
dependencies {
'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.2.2'
}
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 22
buildToolsVersion "22.0.1"
// lots of stuff
splits {
abi {
enable true
reset()
include 'x86', 'armeabi-v7a', 'mips'
}
}
}
If you want to build a universal APK (with all the different ABIs included), you'll need to account for the fact that the universal variant has no ABI filter, i.e. check the multiplier for null and replace it with something meaningful like zero.
