How it is correct to use `kotlinVersion` in the section `plugins`?

```val kotlinVersion: String by extra

plugins {
    kotlin("jvm") version kotlinVersion
}
```

&gt; Unresolved reference: kotlinVersion

Also, you can check official doc about plugins dsl limitations:
<https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/plugins.html#plugins_dsl_limitations>

You can't use variables in `plugins` block. should be ```plugins {
    kotlin("jvm") version "1.1.60"
}```
This shouldn't bee too much trouble, IMHO, because that is probably the only place where you'll have to use version, the rest will follow suit and use the version defined for the plugin, e.g.
```dependencies {
    compile("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jre8")
}```
