Hello `SimpleWork` seems to be deprecated <https://github.com/johnrengelman/shadow/issues/326> and should be already removed. Can you modify source code to use API suggested on Github?

But I couldnt find which part is calling SimpleWork! Can you help me !

Check the plugins applied to `:NewInfraSupportTool` . Some of those creates `:buildrpm` task. The one seems to be using the deprecated API

I couldnt find any plugin that is triggering the SImpleWorkResult!|

I suspect task of type `Rpm` being at fault. Please, check the task implementation details.

If I remove the type Rpm I am getting this error  Could not find method release() for arguments [1355] on task ':NewInfraSupportTool:buildrpm' of type org.gradle.api.DefaultTask.

```Task :NewInfraSupportTool:buildrpm FAILED

Can you try and run
```--warning-mode all```
or modify `gradle.properties` with `org.gradle.warning.mode=(all,none,summary)`


It is possible that it will reveal more information and you can track down the dependency at fault. With the given output I can only speculate that an issue is around:
```SimpleWorkResult has been removed — use WorkResult.didWork.```
as mentioned in <https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/upgrading_version_4.html>

The runtime configuration has been deprecated for resolution. This will fail with an error in Gradle 7.0. Please resolve the runtimeClasspath configuration instead. Consult the upgrading guide for further information: <https://docs.gradle.org/6.9.2/user>

Interesting, so you are using gradle 6.9.2 that is long ago removed `SimpleWorkResult`. When did you received an error? Did you made any dependency changes recently in the project? Try to git bisect 2 different revisions on your repo to identify the commit at fault and see what might caused the SimpleWorkResult to leak into your build config.

No I am trying to update the whole project from 3.4 to 6.9.2

The only suggestion I have is to try to make the upgrade process gradual. First execute project with Gradle `3.4` + `--warning-mode all` and fix warnings. Then repeat for 4.x and 5.x Gradle versions.
