I have a problem that Gradle can't find my dependency (Android support library).
My build.gradle looks like this:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.4'
}
}
apply plugin: 'android'
dependencies {
compile files('libs/FlurryAgent.jar')
compile group: 'com.google.android', name: 'support-v4', version: 'r7'
compile files('libs/YouTubeAndroidPlayerApi.jar')
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 17
buildToolsVersion "17"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 11
targetSdkVersion 17
}
sourceSets {
main {
manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
java.srcDirs = ['src']
resources.srcDirs = ['src']
aidl.srcDirs = ['src']
renderscript.srcDirs = ['src']
res.srcDirs = ['res']
assets.srcDirs = ['assets']
}
instrumentTest.setRoot('tests')
}
}
When I build (on commandline, no IDE) I get the following message:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring root project 'AndroidCalculator'.
> Failed to notify project evaluation listener.
> Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':compile'.

Why am I not allowed to add the Android Support library like this?
You have declared a repository dependency, but haven't declared a repository. Hence the dependency cannot be resolved. (Repositories/dependencies in the buildscript block are strictly separated from repositories/dependencies in the main build script.)

This paste is elaborate project with AndroidAnnotations, Dagger, Jackson and Robolectric.
all you need is add
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
replace
compile group: 'com.google.android', name: 'support-v4', version: 'r7'
with (line 44 of the code linked above)
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:18.0.+'
Gotchas: Last bit will works on Android Studio 0.2+ only if you had a fresh install. Since 0.2 Studio is shipped with its internal m2 repo to provide support and google api libraries so if you upgraded from previous versions your SDK doesn't have it.
also make sure local.properties file is present in root folder and sdk.dir points to SDK
You need to add additional dependency in dependencies tag. If you have android-support-v4.jar library in your libs folder, try to add code listed below:
dependencies {
compile files('libs/android-support-v4.jar')
}

I am making the switch to Gradle for my Android project. I have imported the project into Android Studio from Eclipse and have wrapped it using Gradle 1.8.
My assumption was Gradle handled dependencies the way as Maven, that is if you specify a dependency that does not exist in your local repository it will pull it from the remote repository. Android Studio is not pulling in my dependencies. I attempted to run ./gradlew androidDependencies --debug but I do not see any downloading of the dependencies however they are being acknowledged they are there and no warnings/errors are thrown.
11:11:36.833 [DEBUG] [org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.ivyservice.ivyresolve.CachingModuleVersionRepository] Using cached module metadata for module 'com.nostra13.universalimageloader#parent;1.8.6' in 'MavenRepo'

Gradle does take the dependency and create metadata from it in this location
/home/wil/.gradle/caches/artifacts-26/filestore/com.nostra13.universalimageloader/parent/1.8.6/pom/41669498c2bec505b61772b083cab341653cb86b
Interestingly I have found that if I have the maven dependencies locally it will pull it into Android Studio as an External Library and it will also add the jar to the gradle cache filestore it will just not do this for remote dependencies I specifiy.
Here is my build.gradle
buildscript {
repositories {
maven { url 'http://repo1.maven.org/maven2' }
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.6.3'
}
}
repositories{
mavenCentral()
}
apply plugin: 'android'
dependencies {
compile 'com.nostra13.universalimageloader:parent:1.8.6'
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 19
buildToolsVersion "19"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 17
}
sourceSets {
main {
manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
java.srcDirs = ['src']
resources.srcDirs = ['src']
aidl.srcDirs = ['src']
renderscript.srcDirs = ['src']
res.srcDirs = ['res']
assets.srcDirs = ['assets']
}
instrumentTest.setRoot('tests')
debug.setRoot('build-types/debug')
release.setRoot('build-types/release')
}
}
I am running Android Studio 0.3.6, Ubuntu 13.04, Gradle 1.8, JDK 6
What gradle command should I run that should pull down remote dependencies from a maven repository? Am I missing a configuration setting somewhere that allows downloading of dependencies?
By using gradle dependencies command line, you can pull down all everything specified in your build.gradle
Remote dependencies are downloaded automatically as soon as a task needs them. If you, for example, compile your project's code, compile dependencies will be downloaded, unless they already exist in Gradle's dependency cache. Out of the box, Gradle doesn't come with a task that merely downloads all dependencies without doing anything with them, but it would be easy to write one.
I'm trying to build my android library project, which contains sub test project. Command to build: gradle clean connectedCheck
After task :dexTest I got error:
UNEXPECTED TOP-LEVEL EXCEPTION:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: already added: Lorg/json/simple/ItemList;
UNEXPECTED TOP-LEVEL EXCEPTION:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: already added: Landroid/support/v4/accessibilityservice/AccessibilityServiceInfoCompat;
UNEXPECTED TOP-LEVEL EXCEPTION:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: already added: Lorg/apache/commons/lang3/CharRange$1;
Command gradle clean build ends successful. So my problem is that i can't run my tests. When i change plugin, in my build.gradle file, from 'android-library' to 'android' everything works fine.
Also, i'm added --info param and got this, before error
command: /home/username/adt-bundle/sdk/build-tools/18.1.1/dx --dex --output /home/username/android/build/libs/android-test.dex /home/username/android/build/classes/test /home/username/android/build/dependency-cache/test /home/username/android/libs/json_simple.jar /home/username/android/build/bundles/debug/classes.jar /home/username/android/build/bundles/debug/libs/json_simple.jar /home/username/android/libs/android-support-v4.jar /home/username/android/build/bundles/debug/libs/commons-lang3-3.1.jar /home/username/android/build/bundles/debug/libs/android-support-v4.jar /home/username/android/libs/commons-lang3-3.1.jar
What was that? Why it uses libraries from folder build/bundles/debug/libs/? This is the reason why I had error java.lang.IllegalArgumentException but why gradle takes libraries from that dir i don't understand.
Here my build.gradle file
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.6.3'
}
}
apply plugin: 'android-library'
android {
compileSdkVersion 18

defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 8
targetSdkVersion 18
testPackageName "ua.cooperok.stringcalc.tests"
testInstrumentationRunner "android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner"
}
sourceSets {
main {
manifest.srcFile file('AndroidManifest.xml')
java.srcDirs = ['src']
resources.srcDirs = ['src']
res.srcDirs = ['res']
assets.srcDirs = ['assets']
}
instrumentTest {
manifest.srcFile file('tests/AndroidManifest.xml')
java.srcDirs = ['tests/src']
resources.srcDirs = ['tests/src']
res.srcDirs = ['tests/res']
assets.srcDirs = ['tests/assets']
}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')
}
}
Maybe it's a bug in android-library plugin?
While I do not know exact answer to the question, my colleagues from JetBrains supporting gradle in IntelliJ IDEA advised to ask the question at https://code.google.com/p/android/ because it's clearly an issue (and may be a bug) in Google Android Gradle Plugin for Eclipse, given that you work in Eclipse, as far as I recall from our conversation.
Now problem is no longer relevant. In build tools from version 0.7.2 it is fixed.
Piece of updates from tech doc
- Solve issue with local jar when testing library projects.
I am currently attempting to switch my project over to using gradle builds. While using the old build system I linked to the private/internal/hidden android API's by compiling the source and linking the classes.jar files before the Android libraries. I am currently trying to do the same thing in gradle with no luck at all.
With my current build.gradle file I receive the following error:
Gradle: A problem occurred evaluating project ':Launcher2'.
> Could not find method external() for arguments [file collection] on project ':Launcher2'.
If I remove these lines before "apply plugin: android"
dependencies {
compile files('libraries/classes.jar')
}
I receive errors about missing com.android.internal and com.android.common packages which are located in my classes.jar file.
Here's my build.gradle file.
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.5.6'
}
}
dependencies {
compile files('libraries/classes.jar')
}
plugin: 'android'
android {
buildToolsVersion "17.0"
compileSdkVersion 10
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libraries', include: '*.jar')
compile project(':ActiveAndroid')
}
sourceSets {
main {
manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
java.srcDirs = ['src']
resources.srcDirs = ['src']
aidl.srcDirs = ['src']
renderscript.srcDirs = ['src']
res.srcDirs = ['res']
assets.srcDirs = ['assets']
}
}
}
Edit: After reading the gradle documentation a bit more I was able to successfully link the libraries into the project but the order of dependencies is wrong. The equivalent to what I am trying to do is adding both .jar files to the top of the classpath so that they are declared before the android SDK jar files.
I was digging through the source for the android gradle plugin, it seems that this may not be possible. The code seems incomplete and will not build. If anyone has any insight I would really appreciate it. Otherwise it looks like I will have to switch back to using Ant for now.
I'm trying from yesterday to configure gradle to build Android project. I've got same error since then:
Failed to notify project evaluation listener.
Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':_DebugCompile'.
Could not find any version that matches com.android.support:support-v4:13.0.+.
The official fix on many sites is to install Android Support Repository. I have it installed already, but problem still occurs. I've run out of ideas what can be wrong here...
Here is full code:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.5+'
}
}
apply plugin: 'android'
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:13.0.+'
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 17
buildToolsVersion "17.0.0"
sourceSets {
main {
manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
java.srcDirs = ['src']
resources.srcDirs = ['src']
aild.srcDirs = ['src']
renderscript.srcDirs = ['src']
res.srcDirs = ['res']
assets.srcDirs = ['assets']
}
instrumentTest.setRoot('tests')
}
}
See http://tools.android.com/knownissues section Bundled Maven Repository
To fix this, open the SDK manager, and make sure that the "Android
Support Repository" (not just Android Support Library) is installed:
You need an additional block at the top level after your apply plugin line:
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
In general, you need a repositories block at the same level as any dependencies block (hence why you also need one in the buildscript block).
Most of the time, you'd move your buildscript block to the top level build.gradle (so that all your modules use the same gradle build) rather than have them both at the module level.
com.android.support:support-v4:13.0.+ - this dependency isn't in Maven Central.

I got the same error when trying to build the Android samples. My problem appeared because the ANDROID_HOME was not set correctly.
I'm trying to switch from eclipse to android studio for my android development.
However, I still haven't found the right way to import my existing project.
I don't know if it is important: but I'm using a mac
I did the export step in eclipse, imported this gradle build in Android Studio, but when I try to build my project, it gives me this error:
Gradle:
FAILURE: Could not determine which tasks to execute.
* What went wrong:
Task 'assembleDebug' not found in project ':ProjectName'.
* Try:

Could not execute build using Gradle installation '/Users/<username>/Development/Build/gradle-1.6'.
This is the build.gradle file that eclipse gave me:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.4.+'
}
}
apply plugin: 'android'

I've seen a lot of possible solutions, but none of them worked for me, any idea what I'm doing wrong?
The path to the project has no spaces in it
jar libraries => ProjectName/libs
android libraries => ProjectName/library
all of this was working in eclipse
We recently moved our project to gradle as well. We ran into issues due to the library projects.
To solve it we added a settings.gradle file in the root of your project with
include ':libs:actionbarsherlock'
include ':yourprojectname'
Add all your library projects from eclipse into the settings.gradle
We also made a build.gradle file for each of the library Projects.
AFAIK the export from eclipse doesn't deal well with library projects.
In the build.gradle at the root of your project (the one that's probably mostly empty), add the following line:
task assemble{}

I've had this error appear when I had a stray empty flavors stanza in my build.gradle:
productFlavors {
