⏮️ Press the button to rollback to canary 07 😄

You can solve it changing the root build.gradle.kts to groovy, but I don't know if the content of it affects or only for being kts it doesn't work

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

Just the root?? Because I got like a sub project and ~12 modules and also a nice script that auto includes project/modules in kts

[Javier]

the issue created by @romainguy said that

[romainguy]

From our Gradle team:

[romainguy]

you cannot use 1.4 for build files/buildSrc, etc...
because Gradle uses 1.3.72 for KTS and this is part of the parent classloader so you cannot override it

[romainguy]

I haven’t tried to solve it on my end yet

[Javier]

But the problem is only with canary08, because I am using buildSrc with kts files with 1.4 with no problems, with canary07

[romainguy]

Yeah I didn’t have issues before either

[romainguy]

But I guess for build files it’s not that big of a deal to use 1.3

[romainguy]

The app itself can still use 1.4

[Javier]

I have to check it, I was declaring the version globally inside build.gradle.kts in buildSrc

[Javier]

anyone know if kotlin-dsl is going to use 1.4 soon?

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

I’m not using buildSrc anyway, but composite build

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

Still using kotlin-dsl ofc

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

Using 1.3.72 for the plugin didn’t help

[Javier]

I am using kts without problems

[Javier]

tonight I will push and share my config here

[Javier]

but probably the trick is I haven't Android gradle plugin in the root file

[Javier]

I had it inside buildSrc gradle file, as dependencies { implementation(agp) }

[Javier]

[Javier]

https://github.com/JavierSegoviaCordoba/CleanArchAndroid/blob/develop/build.gradle.kts

[Javier]

that is my config but I haven't pushed the changes with Android, but it is the same, just adding the agp to buildSrc

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

I don’t have it either, I just have it in the classpath, then I apply to some modules

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

My root is pretty neat
https://github.com/4face-studi0/CineScout/blob/master/build.gradle.kts

[Javier]

I tried multiplataform and the preview doesn't work for me, it was working pre alpha01?

[Javier]

if you remove the agp from classpath, you got the same error?

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

No, I didn’t try before dev 17, but on 17 it was definitely not working.

If I remove it from classpath and apply as id(com.android.application) version ... it tells me that a version is already defined, even it that’s not true 😄

Anyway I see the problem in Gradle 6.6-rc. But new AGP requires it and new AS requires new AGP

[Javier]

I had problems with 6.6 in precompiled plugins which use AGP and I upgraded it to 6.7 (nightly version). Maybe you can try it

[Javier]

but the problem was related to GradleProperties

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

Oh, I’m already living enough on the edge 😄

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

I’ll be waiting, unless c8 will resolve some issues with KMP, which I highly doubt about
