Android development of various Gradle errors
We may encounter various Gradle errors when developing Android applications. These errors can come from different reasons, such as dependency issues, configuration errors, version conflicts, etc. Today I have sorted out through searching. In this article, I will share some common Android Studio Gradle errors and their solutions. Hopefully these solutions can help you better solve the problems you encounter during development.
Missing dependencies
error message:
Error: missing property: 'xxx'
Solution:
Check the itemFile, make sure you have added the required dependencies in dependencies. If dependencies are missing, you can add the corresponding dependencies in dependencies, for example:
dependencies { implementation ':appcompat-v7:28.0.0' }
Version conflict
error message:
Error: version XXX of module YYY is required. Available versions are ZZZ,...,YYY
Solution:
In the projectFile, you can see all dependencies and their versions under dependencies. Check for dependencies that exist for version conflicts. If so, you need to update the version of one of the dependencies to the same version as the other. For example, if you have two dependencies, one requires version 28.0.0 and the other requires version 27.1.1, you can update the older dependencies to version 28.0.0:
dependencies { implementation ':appcompat-v7:28.0.0' implementation ':design:28.0.0' }
Configuration error
error message:
Error: .../gradle/wrapper/: No such file or directory (wrapper)
Solution:
This problem is usually caused by problems with Gradle Wrapper. You can try the following steps to solve this problem:
In Android Studio, select "File" -> "Invalidate Caches/Restart" to clear cache and restart. Then resync the project. If the problem persists, you can create it manuallygradle/wrapper/
file, and copy the following into the file:
distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME distributionPath=wrapper/dists zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME zipStorePath=wrapper/dists distributionUrl=https\:///distributions/gradle-7.
The above are just some common solutions, and the actual situation may be more complicated. If you encounter a specific Gradle error, please provide detailed error information so that we can help you solve the problem more accurately. At the same time, you can also refer to the official Android Studio documentation and resources of the developer community for more guidance on solving Gradle errors.
