I'm trying to implement Gradle Version Catalogs on my project
but I got this error!!

[ephemient]

what Gradle version? https://github.com/gradle/gradle/pull/17394 landed in 7.2

[Akram Bensalem]

Gradle version is 7.4.2

Have you refreshed the Gradle project, allowing Gradle to generate the accessors?

[Chris Lee]

if those are defined in the toml file as plugins, the accessor syntax is libs.plugins.<alias>

[ephemient]

if they're defined in [plugins] they should be used in the plugins { alias(libs.plugins.<alias>) }. buildscript.dependencies.classpath takes regular libs. but you should be using plugins for plugins to begin with

[ephemient]

but also always check a command-line build first - IDEA/Android Studio do not support version catalogs very well

[Akram Bensalem]

so I have to build the project from the command line ?

[Chris Lee]

no. sometimes the IDE doesn’t correctly show version catalog accessors working, but the build is fine. The ask is to test this from the command line to see if this is the case. You may also need to correct the accessor syntax / use of plugin{} block.

[ephemient]

1. you need to re-sync for IDEA to see changes in the generated accessors
2. even a working project will show errors in IDEA. (it will build, the IDE just shows errors falsely)
3. if your project isn't working, debug it from a command-line build

[Akram Bensalem]

I understand
I will work on it
Thank you both of you ❤️ for the instructions
