I'm trying to check out the declarative gradle EAP. After getting the basic sample to run, I tried on my own fresh project. I converted my

settings.gradle.kts

to

settings.gradle.dcl

and everything still works fine. However, I get a sync error when I try to add a

default

for a software type in my

setting.gradle.dcl

. I get the following exception:

Failures in resolution:
    19:1: unresolved function call signature for 'defaults'

Where it's pointing to the

defaults

block:

defaults {
    androidApplication {
        compileSdk = 34
}

If I remove the above block, everything works fine. I've not converted any other files thus far.

Hi, What version of Gradle wrapper are you using?

Alright,

Yeah 8.9 did not have support for defaults in settings

Wouldn't have thought to check that one, I'm not that well versed with Gradle. Thanks for the help 👍 E: That did resolve the issue

You thought of asking 😉 Great you got it working!

Curiously now my project is building from the terminal, even though the sync from AS fails in the following way:

The project is using an incompatible version (AGP 8.7.1) of the Android Gradle plugin. Latest supported version is AGP 8.7.0-alpha03

I guess 8.7.0-alpha03 is the maximum for

Android Studio Ladybug | 2024.1.3 Nightly 2024-07-26

? I tried a newer nightly, but it didn't have the declarative configuration option under Studio Flags. I am guessing AGP

8.7.1.

is pulled from the

androidApplication

software type?

Mmm, yeah currently all this requires a narrow set of versions to work. What version of ecosystem plugins are you using in settings? Are they the same as the sample?

I tried

0.1.15

,

.19

and some versions >

.20

. Is there a table or another way to decipher which versions work together? Or which version does the plugin apply?

It seems the samples

main

branch https://github.com/gradle/declarative-samples-android-app requires a more recent build of Studio. Gimme a moment

Got it 👍 thanks for letting me know so I don't bang my head on the exceptions 😄 I'd be happy to continue trying it out once there's a a set of working versions available (gradle + AS + AGP + android-ecosystem plugin)

I'll make sure to notify this channel when done

Hey again, any updates on this by any chance?

We will have an update later Today

Great to hear! Thanks 👍

This should be merged pretty soon to the documentation but if you want to try now here are the new download links: • macOS Apple Silicon • macOS Intel • Windows • Linux

Thanks! I think I'll be able to give it a spin next week 👍
