I just tried to upgrade to gradle 6.0 (from 5.6.3). Now this code in

settings.gradle

fails with “Unresolved reference: artifactoryUsername”:

val artifactoryUsername: String by settings
val artifactoryPassword: String by settings

pluginManagement {
	repositories {
		maven(url = "<https://artifacts.company.com/artifactory/gradle-plugins-proxy>") {
			credentials {
				username = artifactoryUsername
				password = artifactoryPassword
			}
		}
	}
}

Every developer has these properties set in their ~/.gradle/gradle.properties Any ideas?

The

pluginManagement {}

block is now isolated in 6.0 See https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/upgrading_version_5.html#the_pluginmanagement_block_in_settings_scripts_is_now_isolated

Thanks a lot! I have to read the notes more carefully. I just moved the property declarations into the pluginManagement block and now it works.
