Gradle build is stricter that Eclipse ADT (e.g. Found item _ more than one time)


I am adding second gradle build for Eclipse Android projects.

However I have to fix a lot of smaller issue as Gradle finds additional errors, that Eclipse build does not, like duplicate values:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':FunshionAndroid:mergeDebugResources'.
> D:\Workspaces\Proj\AndroidApp\res\values-hdpi\dimens.xml: Error: Found item Dimension/tvname_textsize more than one time

As my first goal is to finish Gradle build first, how to configure gradle not to validate projects (stricter than Eclipse does)


Solution

  • OK, finally there is Lint configuration. So the reason of errors was that Lint is enabled by default for release build (and gradle makes debug and release 2 builds by default)

    android {
        lintOptions {
            checkReleaseBuilds false
            // Or, if you prefer, you can continue to check for errors in release builds,
            // but continue the build even when errors are found:
            abortOnError false
        }
    }
    

    or use gradle assembleDebug debug build only.
