I'm trying to follow Retrofit's 2 tutorial, but on this part of the code there is a GsonConverterFactory
that displays error Cannot resolve symbol
:
public class ServiceGenerator {
public static final String API_BASE_URL = "http://your.api-base.url";
private static OkHttpClient httpClient = new OkHttpClient();
private static Retrofit.Builder builder =
new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl(API_BASE_URL)
//THIS IS THE LINE WITH ERROR!!!!!!!!!!!!
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create());
public static <S> S createService(Class<S> serviceClass) {
Retrofit retrofit = builder.client(httpClient).build();
return retrofit.create(serviceClass);
}
}
Previously I added in my gradle.build, I'm not sure if I should add GSON since they say Retrofit 1.9 has it but nothing is mentioned about Retrofit 2:
dependencies {
// Retrofit & OkHttp
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit:retrofit:2.0.0-beta2'
}
EDIT
retrofit 2 is now stable. Use
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit:2.3.0'
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-gson:2.3.0'
in your build.gradle
dependency section
old answer
with Retrofit 2.0 you have to declare in your build.gradle the convert factory you want to use. Add
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit:converter-gson:2.0.0-beta2'
to your gradle and sync it again
